She said, “You just don’t want to marry me, Ash. You’re a liar, a big emotional liar. How could you be like this? I hate you, I hate you so much! Waaah…”
She had never felt so wronged before. Except in front of Aimee, when she had cried like this. At this moment, Mikayla can’t even listen to anything.
Ash was really panicked and completely at a loss.
He reached over, unbuckled Mikayla, and scooped her up, straight into his lap.
His big hand fell on Mikayla’s back, soothing her with gentle pats.
Ash said, “It’s my fault. I was wrong. I said the wrong things. Baby, I’m sorry.”
He didn’t tell Mikayla to stop crying because he knew very well that if Mikayla didn’t cry her heart out, she wouldn’t be able to stop.
However, Mikayla like this truly made him feel heartbroken. He felt both emotionally and physically hurt.
Ash’s own eyes turned red and he held Mikayla even tighter, wishing he could rub her into his own flesh.
After an unknown amount of time, Mikayla was still crying. Fortunately, her sobs had weakened considerably and she seemed genuinely exhausted from all the tears.
Ash gently patted Mikayla’s back, soothing her with care.
At this moment, someone knocked on the car window. Ash looked over and saw a traffic police officer in uniform standing next to the car, looking at the window expressionlessly. Of course, the traffic police cannot see the situation inside.
Ash was in a hurry and didn’t pay attention to whether parking was allowed here.
Seeing the traffic police now, he understood what was going on.
He patted Mikayla’s back and whispered, “Sweetheart, sit back down. The police are here.”
Mikayla can now listen and understand what was being said. She sobbed as she climbed back to the passenger seat from Ash’s lap.
However, the amplitude of the movement was too large, causing the body of the car to shake violently.
Ash clearly saw the expression of the traffic police officer becoming even more speechless.
He also had some helplessness, which made it difficult not to cause any misunderstandings.
Ash didn’t get out of the car until Mikayla was seated in the passenger seat. As soon as he looked up, he met the annoyed gaze of the traffic police officer.
The traffic police said, “What are you doing in the car? Don’t you know that parking is not allowed here?”
His gaze fell on Ash’s tear-stained shoulders, his expression even more profound.
Ash had a good attitude and said to the traffic police, “I’m sorry, officer. There was a little accident just now and I didn’t pay attention. You can issue me a ticket and I will accept it.”
Ash’s good attitude helped to calm down some of the irritation. The officer handed the ticket to Ash and said, “Drive away quickly.”
Ash nodded, without objection.
As Ash was about to get into the car, he heard the cop say, “Find another place to get your kicks. It’s daytime on the street.”
Ash, unable to explain anything, awkwardly pulled open the door and got into the car.
Back in the car, Ash’s head was throbbing a little.
“Are all cops this bold when they talk?” he wondered aloud.
Mikayla had calmed down by now and had heard what the cop said to Ash. Her eyes were swollen from crying, but they now sparkled with a hidden smile.
Ash felt relieved when he saw her smile. “Baby, let me find a place to park,” he said.
The cop hadn’t left yet and seemed to be watching them closely. If they didn’t leave soon, he would come back and issue them another ticket while lecturing them again.
Ash didn’t want to give him that chance again, so he quickly drove off. When they found a parking spot,
Ash turned off the engine and turned towards Mikayla.
“Baby,” he began solemnly. “I know you already know this even if I don’t say it out loud, but I have to tell you anyway. Mikayla, I love you so much! I won’t marry anyone else. All I want is to be with you.”
Mikayla listened as Ash spoke seriously. Her eyes welled up again involuntarily at his words.
“Ash,” she murmured softly as she looked into his eyes intently.
Ash took hold of her face gently in his hands and continued speaking earnestly, “Baby girl… you’re making my heart ache… and other parts too…”
Mikayla raised an eyebrow quizzically at him. She wasn’t inexperienced or naive enough not understand what that meant.
She gave him an annoyed look for being so blunt about it but couldn’t help feeling curious about what else was on his mind…
Ash chuckled wryly at her expression before taking hold of her chin firmly between two fingers. Forcing her gaze back onto him once more, he said, “But baby…I’m not really that strong right now…”
Mikayla thought for a moment before replying confidently, “Actually…maybe there’s something I can do…”
She wasn’t one of those prudish girls after all ??if things moved too fast when she was in the high school, then maybe some things might sound less than flattering…
Now that she was the freshman in the university, Mikayla had some confidence.
Ash froze when he heard the words, and looked at Mikayla deeply.
Naturally, he wouldn’t think that Mikayla was teasing him on purpose, because her expression was so innocent.
However, even Mikayla’s innocence made Ash feel that his life might be on the line.
He was an adult man, and the girl who said this to him in front of him was the girl he held dear to his heart.
It would be outrageous if he really didn’t have any thoughts about her.
However, they were in the car.
If Ash hadn’t been ticketed, he might still be tempted to turn Mikayla into his own woman in the car, but there was not only one way to help him.
However, the traffic policeman’s words still rang in his ears. When perhaps Ash needed help, and it was somewhere else.
Ash reached out and ruffled Mikayla’s hair, saying, “You have no shame even in broad daylight.”
Mikayla snorted lightly. Then she seemed to think of something and said with a sly smile, “Ash, that night you didn’t seem interested in me at all. Are you not interested in me?”
Ash was speechless.
This girl really had no fear. How dared she provoke him like this? When Mikayla spoke, she even looked down at Ash’s legs.
She clearly saw it all, but how could Ash endure it? It was just not logical.
Mikayla guessed one possibility – maybe he really wasn’t interested in her.
In an instant, Mikayla thought of what had happened before and felt wronged again. She was ready to make a scene with Ash once more.
However, Ash did not give her the chance.
He gritted his teeth and said firmly, “Mikayla, wait until we get home.”
After speaking these words, he immediately made a phone call to Douglas without waiting for any response from Mikayla. He told Douglas on the phone, “I’ll come back with Mikayla after a few days.
There is something I need to take care of here today.” And then he hung up without waiting for
Douglas’ reply.
Mikayla was struck dumb.
Suddenly realizing what was happening around her made Mikayla feel scared and timid again.
She asked hesitantly, “Is it okay if we don’t go back for dinner? After all, we already agreed on it earlier.”
According to her understanding of the Torres family, they must have prepared many dishes already.
Ash knew exactly what she meant by this question, but decided teaching her any lessons right now as there were certain things that should never be spoken about casually between men and women, especially when one person loved another so deeply.
The car quickly arrived at Maple Street Apartment.
This time around, Mikayla was truly frightened. She didn’t know whether or not she should get off the car.
As expected, she didn’t need to make any choices because Ash had already come over, pulled open the door, and directly carried her out of the car.
Mikayla couldn’t even utter a sound. Her hands were tightly wrapped around Ash’s neck while inside her head, everything started going blank.
Ash did not stop for even a moment. He carried Mikayla into their house without hesitation.
The moment the door closed, Mikayla looked towards Ash as if awakened from a dream.
However, before she didn’t even see Ash’s face clearly, she just felt the black shadow press down, and the next second, her lips were kissed.
All along, Ash had been very gentle to her. Many times, Mikayla can clearly feel how much Ash cherished her.
However, at this moment, Ash was fierce and aggressive, rushing towards her.
Mikayla was a little dizzy from his enthusiasm.
She didn’t even know how she was carried back to the room. Ash’s forbearance sounded in his ears,
“Baby, you can call a stop.”
If she didn’t shout to stop, he really can’t stop.
Although Mikayla was a little timid, she was already here, and she herself will look forward to it.
So, Mikayla hooked Ash’s neck, raised her head and kissed him, telling Ash her choice with actions.
The Torres Mansion.
Douglas stared at his phone screen, which had gone black after Ash hung up on him.
Martha came downstairs and saw Douglas with a gloomy expression. She asked, puzzled, “What’s wrong? You look so unhappy.”
Douglas reached out to Martha and pulled her onto his lap. He wrapped his big hand around her waist and said, “I don’t know what Ash’s doing everyday.”
