Secret Billionaire’s Contract Bride: Marrying My Enemy’s Lover

Chapter 122

I could see Tabitha who stood behind Ashton, looking terrified. There was a stalemate between the two psychopaths as they stared each other down. Ashton looked like a raging bull while Angela was eerily calm and collected.

That was a superpower of hers I had noticed over time. She was able to remain calm in the mist tense of environments in order to get a rise out of you. But the last thing we needed right now was to get a rise out of Ashton. He was unstable even on the best of days.

“All of this is a lie?” His voice boomed against the walls of the cabin. “You lied to me!”

“Oh come now, I literally met you two weeks ago. It’s your fault for believing me and it doesn’t matter anyway. You will get your money and I will get Damon, it’s a win-win”

“But what about the ran80111?”

That was the first thing that came out of his mouth.

“You will still get the ransom, and I will get what I always wanted, the love of my life.”

I had to keep myself from scoting under my breath because of how crazy this all sounded.

to you.” I stared at him hoping that some form of common sense would suddenly form in his mind. But hoping for such was like hoping for a downpour in the desert. “Shut up!” This time it was Angela who exploded, her voice vibrating against the walls of the cabin. “Don’t you get it.

Her eyes were wide with panic and hurt, cool hands trembling most likely from the foreign feeling of having the gun in her hands. Ashton held his hands up to show that he was not a threat to her.
