Chapter 51: I Fell In Love Without Realizing It

"Let's settle this by the law," Ash said as he showed off his phone. "My lawyer is on the way. He'll handle everything, including the charges against her." He pointed at the older woman, whose eyes and mouth widened. "If you need anything from my girl, talk to my lawyer. May I take my girlfriend now?" "Yes, Mr. Coleman," one of the police officers replied before bowing to him like he was a prince.

My brows furrowed in confusion. Do they know him? Maybe they were staring at him earlier not just because of his looks, but because they recognized him. The only one I knew who was famous among the three of them was Haze, whose parents are both politicians, but I never thought Ash was so easily recognized too. Ash was about to pull me out of the police station when the old woman grabbed his arm. She looked so tough earlier, but now she was like a timid puppy. I wonder what she fears the most.

"C-Coleman?" She sounded hesitant to ask, but she still did.

"If you're thinking about the Coleman Corporation, you're right. I'm part of it," Ash answered, his voice dangerously low.. "And you're fired." Ash pulled me out of the station.

I was walking back to the hospital to check on my mom, but I didn't expect Ash to follow me, leaving his car behind.

"You're not going to give me my phone, so stop following me. Don't add to my already overwhelming problems," I pleaded with him, exhausted.

I was grateful that Ash helped me. The more I thought about it, the more it broke my heart.

Ash just kept messing with my mind, even though I already knew everything-that I was nothing but a bet.

"Here," he said, holding my shoulder and showing me my phone.

I just raised an eyebrow at him. I didn't even move my hand to take it from him.

"I don't have time to play."

"Who said I'm playing with you?" he asked, raising a brow. He took my hand and placed my phone on it. "I'm sorry if I offended you. You just look cute when you're pissed."

"Oh, is that why you and Haze made a bet on me?" I said in a threatening tone, but it wasn't enough to wipe off his infuriating smirk.
