Ouch! My CEO Fiancé Fell For His Maid By Lisa Salman Chapter 96
96-Anything For You!
Ashley Walters pov
I felt something in my mouth and tried to gag.
What the hell!
Myshes unsped and I tried to spit that thing.
“What is this? Yuck!” I groaned in my sleep and wondered if Aniya or Eve had
prepared coffee. I needed a strong cup.
Gosh! My head might explode anytime now.
“EVE!” I tried to call her loudly, “COFFEE! PLEASE!” My eyes fluttered close
when I again felt that strange thing on my tongue.
“Kitten!” Said a sleepy male voice beside me, “Edith would bring you, coffee, love.”
The voice reminded me of Justin. Sigh!
What!
Justin?
My eyes flew open. His head was there on my chest and his long curls were getting inside my mouth.
“Umm. Justin? Is it you? Move away!” I pushed him with all my might and propped up on
my elbows. Memories from the previous night started hitting me right in the head.
I was almost a mess in bed. The quilt was wrapped around my body and the almost naked man beside
me was glued to me leaving more than half the side of his bed.
“Let’s go to sleep,” his arm pulled me towards him making me fall on his head.
“Ouch, Justin! Leave me!” I rolled my eyes and hit his shoulder with a fist, “I need to go to the bathroom
.” At first, I thought he didn’t hear me and went back to sleep.
But then his grip loosened around me, giving me a chance to get
up and rush to the bathroom.
and got myself cleaned. As usual! I was
“You will find an extra toothbrush in there.” I heard him yellin around him for less than twenty four
hours and again I didn’t have my supplies with me.
No extra pair of clothing. No brush. No facewash.
I took the shower and put on
a bathrobe instead of wearing back my clothes. When I came out Justin was
no more there in the room.
Maybe he was using the other bathroom.
Iran my gaze, looking for a wall clock, and froze. It was two in the noon. I missed my sses. I missed
my God damn presentation.
“JUSTIN!” I roared and went out of the room, “JUSTIN! WHERE ARE YOU?”
“He went out a few minutes back.” Edith came out of the kitchen all smiling.
“How dare, he left, leaving me here.” I knew I was acting like a b*itch. But my professors always
respected me. I built a reputation in these two years.
Missing a presentation without informing them was something irresponsible on my behalf. And the one

be med for it was not even in sight.
I went back to the bedroom and instead of staying there, brought my phone out. I switched it on
and started scrolling through it.
There were dozens of messages from Eve and Aniya but also from Gerald. He was back at Arguli unive
rsity dorm and wanted to meet me.
“Edith. Can I get something to eat?” I asked
the woman and started responding to the messages. My first one was to Gerald.
“I am sorry for not
making it today. I oversleptst night and missed my sses and presentation. I will meet
you tomorrow and exin everything.”
I about to type a message to Aniya and Eve when my phone started ringing. It was Gerald.

“Hey!” I leaned back on the headrest.
“Ashley Walters! You missed university because you overslept? For some odd reason,
I am not buying it.”
“Why?” Iughed, “Can’t I get my sleep?”
“Yes, you can. But you are someone who will never miss her sses even if there is
a tornado or a tsunami.” He said matter of factly, and he was not wrong.
“Yeah. Something important came up. I will exin everything when we meet tomorrow.”
“Sure. By the way are you well? Like… if you are in any trouble then you can rely on me. I am

The worry in his voice made me smile and it warmed my heart. He was became judgmental.

I had always seen him showing empathy to everyone around him and at times
he had to face bullying from people like Rayan.
“And what kind of trouble are we talking about, Gerald?”
“Uh. I mean
maybe you have been kidnapped or something and the kidnapper is standing there close to you, and y
ou are not able to …”
He made it sound like he was teasing me, but I knew him better. It was almost alien to everyone if I
was not attending my university.
“So, if that’s the case just say a code word to let me know what I need to do to save you.”
“You are a sweetheart, Gerald.” A smile tugged at the corner of my lips, “I am
not kidnapped but trust me. If I’m in trouble, you will be the first one I’ll call for help.”
“Thanks,” I could imagine that signature sheepish smile on his lips, “I love you.”
“I know, honey. I love you too.” I kissed my phone and ended the call. However, I didn’t notice Justin wh
o was standing there looking at me.
“Where were you? Look what you made me do. And when did youe back?” I stood up
and caught the branded bag he tossed towards me.
“You were in the shower, and I wanted to make it quick. I was out to buy a decent
dress for you.” He said casually and ced the car keys on the tabletop, “And about your second
part of your question… I came inside when you were talking to
this Gerald guy and was telling him that you love him before smacking your lips on that phone.”
He said in a chilling tone and marched inside the room. What did he mean by that?

I went after him and saw him taking off his jacket. Before I could argue with him, he got inside the
bathroom.
In no way, I would try to clear
my stance. He remained absent from my life and was aware that he could not expect me
to stay away from normal life.
Whether there was a curse or not. Nobody told me anything when they got me married to him and
nobody bothered to share anything when I was thrown out of the mansion.
This was simply not fair.
When I heard him turning on the shower, I took out the dress, he had brought for me. It consisted of ski
nny ck jeans paired with a spaghetti–strapped top.
The bag also contained lingerie
in my perfect size. I quickly got dressed and left the room. Couldn’t afford to see him half nak*ed again
afterst night.
“Young Master will be joining you for breakfast, ma’am,” Edith
informed me while setting the dinning table for two.

“Please set this table for breakfast. I don’t want to walk to the dining area.” I made the request with a s
mile. I didn’t have enough guts to look at the written chat over there.
“Ma’am. It’s covered with a tablecloth.” She tried to convince me. I was about to open my mouth when
we heard Justin behind me.
“Do as she says,” He said in an authoritative tone and didn’t wait for an
answer before sitting beside me, I am sorry.” I heard him after Edith left for transferring all the breakfast
.
“Sorry? For what? For leaving me two years back? Or for hurting me?” I asked, narrowing my eyes at h
im, Or is it for trying to eavesdrop when I was talking on the phone?”
“I was not eavesdropping.” He tried to protest, “I just
overheard. You were too loud!” he held my hand and kissed it, “The apology is for ming you for som
ething without listening to your side of the story. Whatever I heard must have a background and I just…
took it out on you.”
He said guiltily and there was something else in his eyes. Something too alien, that I never witnessed
before.
Jealousy.
No! How was it possible? Justin might be involved with me. But he would never get
jealous of any man. Because jealousy usually came from someone who was insecure.
I didn’t think Justin was an insecure brat!
Edith set the table and was about to pour coffee when I stopped her and sent
her away, “Thank you. We will help ourselves.”
“Please call me if you need anything.” She said with a pleasant smile and left us alone.
Out of habit, he started filling up my te. Just like old times. His wet
curls were falling on his forehead and there was no denying that he had be more
handsome and more attractive in the past two years.
“Quit staring at me, kitten.” He warned and offered me the te.
“Thanks. No, I wasn’t staring,” I lied, “I was just thinking about something… I mean about someone.”
“Really?” he said with an arrogant smirk, “Who were you thinking about?”

My answer made his hand go freeze midway that he was raising to
take the first bite of his chicken sandwich.

“Gerald!” I said, “I was thinking about my fiancé, Gerald.” I said smugly
and started pouring coffee for both of us. He didn’t seem happy with my answer but chose not to remar

Now, why should I tell him that I was not engaged to the guy yet?

We were quiet during our breakfast.
I kept asking her
if she needed anything. It was useless to get furious at her. I needed to ept that I hurt her two years
back and it was done to make her go ahead in life.
It did work. She did move on. No matter how much I disliked it. But everything went ording to my

I ran a slow gaze at her and felt my chest
rising with pride. She had changed. She had grown a lot. Became more confident and more beautiful.
Braver like a lioness yet was still my kitten.
She now had a guy in her life. But I needed to bear with it. Just like Sarah did when Ashley came into m

Didn’t I have as much strength as these two women had?

sadness.

“I love you, Ashley. You need

towards her and gently kissed those eyelids one by one that had those green orbs hidden behind.
She stayed silent looking into my eyes. The worry on her face was evident.
“C… can I have some time?” She asked me and I took
a sigh of relief. At least she was willing to give me a
chance.
“Yes. Why not.” I told her happily and brushed my lips against her velvety ones, “Take all the

She blushed and looked away.
