Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 923 Elias and Ashley's Side Story: Love

Elias's POV:

Elias and Ashley's unhappy partings only repeated countless times. It didn't take long for them to run into another issue.

Maya started pushing for a baby.

In truth, she was eyeing Ashley's inheritance. Her sneaky plan was simple: if they had a child, that child would be an Undvike by blood. Hence, they could rightfully inherit Ashley's fortune.

Well, Elias thought that made a lot of sense. If they had an heir, not only would Ashley's annoying relatives back off, but so would the greedy ones from the Undvike family.

Once they saw that the next generation was already set to inherit, they'd have no claim. Thus, they would start giving up, and Ashley would feel less pressure too.

Hence, without hesitation, he went to ask Ashley for a baby.

Ashley heard his request and thought for a moment that Elias had lost his mind. They were practically living apart, yet he wanted a baby?

She sneered as she tossed the prenuptial agreement at him again. Unless he signed it, she would refuse to talk to him. At this point, Ashley was fully convinced that Elias was after her inheritance.

When reasoning with her failed, Elias did something underhanded. He swapped out her birth control pills for folic acid and fertility meds.

In the end, Ashley did end up pregnant, just like Elias had wanted. However, their relationship hit rock bottom. On top of the sneaky pill swap, which infuriated Ashley, she also suspected Elias of cheating. At the same time, Elias saw Ashley and Beathan at a hotel together and was convinced that they'd rekindled their old flame.

That fight was brutal. So brutal, in fact, that Elias actually considered jumping into the city river. William was incredulous as he asked, "Really? Is it that bad?"
