After a series of talks and procedures, Ashton finally wrapped up things and approached me after he got off the stage.

I mirrored his smile.

We talked briefly, and it was inevitable to seem more intimate as a married couple.

He made me stand a distance from the pool and asked one of his employees, “What’s going on?”
