How exactly am I supposed to tell him everything that happened without looking like the bad guy? I really didn’t want him to see me as a monster for keeping Ashton away from Aiden.
For all I know, he’d force me to tell Aiden or he would tell Aiden himself.
I felt cold as the thought rang through my head.
Aiden would probably hate me even more if he found out.
He’d deny Ash, deny ever being with me.
Or he’d want custody.
Now that thought had me running to the bathroom and I barely made it to the toilet before barfing.
I’m clutching the seat while throwing up and crying.
If Aiden ever finds out about Ash, would he fight me for custody? Because it was clear he didn’t want me in his life.
Suddenly fear swirled in my stomach.
Maybe it wouldn’t be such a good idea to tell Bernard about Aiden being Ash’s father.
I flushed the toilet and walked to the sink and looked at my reflection in the mirror while wincing.
I look like a terrible mess.
And felt like it too.
I opened the faucet and cupped my hand under the running water.
Washing out the vomit from my mouth, I kicked the edge of the door so it would close.
I need a long shower and probably need to go through Ria’s stash of plan b packets she always has in her drawer.
She wouldn’t notice one missing, right? I sighed, closed the faucet, and peeled off every layer of clothes I had on me. Aiden was playing me into a trap after all, and I fell right into it.
He first pretended to forget me and then knew exactly what to do to bait me into going to his office.
And I embarrassed myself by giving myself to him yet again and allowing him to mark me by cumming inside me.
I shake my head at my reflection, disappointed that I so easily played right into his palm.
I texted Mila to pick up Ash today from daycare seeing as Mary was giving a bit of trouble on the way here and I wasn’t really in the right frame of mind to be on the road.
I was a mess, both inside and out.
Showering and staying under the warm sprinkle of water did no justice.
I still looked miserable and felt it.
When I got the text from Mila who agreed to pick up Ash, I set my phone down and walked over to the freezer.
Mila might kill me for this but I really did need that ice cream tub more than her at the moment.
I pulled the ice cream tub out of the freezer and fetched a huge spoon.
For the next hour and more, I drown my sadness and frustration in cookies and cream ice cream while watching the notebook.
I fell asleep when I was more than halfway through the tub and only woke up when I heard the door opening.
Aiden’s pov A knock sounds at the door and I pinched the bridge of my nose.
I wanted to yell at Noel to leave me the hell alone.
Was she not getting it that I didn’t want to speak to anyone right now?
“Mr.
Xavier, Mr.
Beckam is here
“Enter,” I said, cutting her off.
The door swings open and Bernard steps into my office.
Noel quickly closed the door behind him and when her footfalls fade he approached my desk.
I’m sitting on my leather chair, my legs kicked up on the desk, my ankles crossed, and a pen clicking beside my ear.
The noise was irritating, but it was the only thing that was keeping my mind off of Sophie.
Well, a little bit.
“What do you want?” I asked nonchalantly.
Was he going to ask me why Sophie came back to his office probably in tears?
“Aiden- I mean Mr.
Xavier.
I’ve worked for this company for more than twenty years.
I love this company, perhaps even more than you…..
I raised my brow, where was he going with this? Bernard doesn’t sit on the chair mirroring mine, he only clutches the top of it and looks at me.
“I have nothing but respect for this company, and you.
I don’t know what’s going on between you and Sophie but I can vouch for her being a good person.
If she has upset you in any way, Mr.
Xavier, I am sure she hadn’t meant it.” I narrowed my eyes at the older man.
The way he spoke of Sophie.
It was like he knew her personally.
He spoke of her fondly.
Was Bernard into Sophie? My jaw locked and I fight off my swirling anger.
Bernard was way too old for Sophie, but those old fucks liked younger pretty women……
And Sophie was damn gorgeous.
Of course she would attract any male at any age.
