#Chapter2

Ashley's POV

After lunch some of us went to watch movie. While other decide to go to their rooms and I was one of them. I passed I and Chase room. I sigh and notice I only entered there twice.

I walk to the guest room that I made my room and got in. Deciding to take a shower and go to Chase's library to look for two or three books to read.

I went to the shower and striped off my cloths before getting in. I smiled when the warm water touched my skin.

After taking my shower. I changed into short shorts and a purple tank top written moody. I walked out of my room not forgetting to close it.

I got in the library and start my search for books. I find one light blue book, I look at the title The fault in our stars. I read that book like three times and I really cried, it's a really painful story. I don't want to read it again. I put it back to where I found it and search for other books.

After thirty minutes of searching, I finally found three books. I went back to my room and lay on the bed and started reading the first book I took When Love Comes.

After reading for two hours, I heard a knock on my door.

/"Come in./" I said. Daniela comes in with a sad smile on her face.

/"Hey./"

/"Hey. What brings you to my room?/" I asked.

/"I just wanted to talk to you........ about..... about Chase/" I nodded my head and made a space for her to seat on my bed. She close the door and took her seat.

/"What's wrong with him?/" I asked confused.

/"I and Mason were talking about Chase's silence. Mason said Ace was really his close friend since childhood. So me and Mason were thinking. Does Chase talks to you... privately?/" Daniela ask. They all know Chase also doesn't talk to me coz when he yelled at me to get out of our room, the whole house heard it.

/"No, since that day he yelled at me. We never talked./" I said looking down, I feel so ashamed my own husband does not talk to me.

/"Mason suggested you should speak with him. He said you’re the only one that could take him out of the cage his in./" she said looking at me hopefully.

/"But I tried. I'm even scared of him now. He treats me like I'm the rat he dislikes./"

/"Try again he loves you./"

/"If he really does he wouldn't treat me the way he does./"

/"Just try again but take it slow with him. He does love you. Maybe his just scared./"

/"Scared of what?/"

/"Don't know. Just try your best./"

/"Really Dan-/"

/"This conversation is over. Just do as all of us want. He still loves you. See you at dinner./" She said getting up and left my room.

Just like that?

How can they want me to speak to him? That was when I got scared of him, when he outrage at me. That's why the second they when he went out. I pack my things out of that room. I have been staying here for five years.

Does he still love me?

I will find out later today. If he chases me out of his office or room, where ever he will be after dinner, that gives me the answer to my question.

I dropped the book I was still holding and slept off.

/"Boss lady....... Boss lady......Mrs...Mrs Martins./"

/"Mmmm?/"

/"Dinner is ready./"

/"Okay I'll be there./"

/"Okay./"

I heard my door closing. I stood up from the bed and went to the bathroom. I wash my face and got out, tying my hair in a high pony tail. My hair grew really long during the years.

I walked out of my room and made my way downstairs.

Everyone was already there. I took my seat next to Paige. /"Hey. Pai./" I greeted her with a smile, that's my first time calling her like that. I should start calling her that. I look at her. She's frozen on her spot, the spoon which is about to reach her mouth that is wide open and her eyes wide open looking front.

/"Is there something wrong?/" that's when a single tear fell from her eyes. I looked at her confused.

/"It's only one person that calls me that./"

/"Who?/"

Does she have a boyfriend?

/"Ace./"

Oh shit! What have I done?

/"I'm so sorry. I didn't know. The name just came to my mind. I am deeply sorry./"

No one on the table notice she was crying coz everyone was making their own little topics.

/"It's fine. Just don't call me that name again, it brings back those memories./"

/"Okay I promise to not./" I said, she nods her head.

/"This is all Michelle's fault!!/" she yelled making me shocked and getting everyone’s attention.

/"Calm down Paige. Please let's just eat./"

/"No!! If it's wasn't for Michelle's blind eyes!! He wouldn't have been dead!!!/" I look over to Michelle. Her eyes are already have uncontrollable tears falling.

/"I'm so sorry Paige. I really am./" she said.

/"Well, that doesn't bring Ace back!!/"

/"Guys me and Paige are leaving./" I said to everyone and leave the table while holding Paige.

We left the dining table and walked to her room. We got in and I closed the door.

/"Paige calm down./"

/"My brother would have been with me now. But he left me all alone./"

/"His still with you. Watching over you. But I don't think he will be happy if he sees you crying and blaming Michelle./"

/"Can I please have a moment alone?/"

She needs it.

/"Okay./" I nodded my head and walked out of her room.

When I reached the dinning table. I looked over to where Michelle was. But she's no more on her chair.

/"Where is Michelle?/"

/"She went back to her room./" Mason answered silently. I nodded my head and took my seat.

She also need her space.

/"How is she?/" Daniela asked.

/"She's better. She just needs a moment alone./" they all nodded in understanding.

After eating. We all went our separate ways.

I'm in front of Chase office door debating whether to knock or just talk to him tomorrow. One of the maids told me his in his office. Which is far away from the other rooms. It has a big two brown open doors.

I decided to just knock and get over it. I knock once, there is no reply. I knock again, still no reply but I could hear shuffling sounds. I was ready to knock again with my fist raised up. Then the door opens, revealing Chase.

It looks like he just finished bathing. Coz his wearing a white shirt that's hugging his body and showing his eight paks with a grey sweatpants. Water his dropping from his hair.

/"What?/" He asked looking annoyed.

/"Can-can I speak with yo-you?/" His eyes looks cold and it's scarring the hell out of me.

/"Say what you want to say./" He said with a harsh tone.

/"Can.....we speak in-inside the room?/"

/"If you have nothing important to say. I'm closing./"

/"Chase, why are you behaving like this to me?/" a tear slide down my cheek.

/"This is rubbish. I don't have much time!/"

/"Okay, talk to me why you shutting me out? You can tell me anything. I'm your wife./"

/"I don't have anything to tell you. This isn't important./" he said and shut the door on my face. His even worse than before.

He doesn't love me.
