Darling, only I can be your man novel Chapter 47

  “Ariana, don’t misunderstand.” Ashton pleaded.

  He can’t allow the conversation to go downhill before getting what he came for.

  “What exactly did I misunderstood? Ariana asked coldly.

  Ashton felt his entire body froze. ‘Where did she get this powerful aura?’

  “Angela has always been my girlfriend even before I met your mother. Her parents wanted her to marry someone else because I was poor back then. I was just setting up my company and it did not look too promising in their eyes. I did not want to hinder her future so I had to let her go even though she did not want to.

  Couple months after I brought home your mother, I went to see Angela to cut things off permanently. She broke down when I got to her place because she did not want to marry someone else and was also upset because I got marry to someone other than her.

  I was comforting her and then one thing lead to a next. It was a mistake.” Ashton explained.

  Everything Ashton told her just now was partially true.

  Angela was his girlfriend and she did broke down after learning about his marriage to Ariana’s mother. Her parents did go against their relationship and tried arranging a business marriage for her but Angela wanted him and nobody else and for that reason alone he loved her more than life itself.

  Infact, he had never slept with Ariana’s mother. What he sold her was just lies. He cannot tell her the truth. That would put him and his family in danger and he had been in public hiding for twenty-three years living peacefully because the Miller Family knew nothing of him.

  He can’t allow his wife and daughter to be hurt.

  Another thing he needs to do is to find a way to break her up with Michael. That is a death trap and/or prison sentence for him.

  “Well, I don’t care about your wife and daughter. I just want to find my mother and you don’t have any useful information for me.” Ariana felt like he wasted her time.

  Ashton felt annoyed at her tone but tried his best to stay cool, “Angela is your step-mother and she helped raised you. As for Gina, she is your sister and you know she loves you. She is just a tough love time of person.”

  Ariana rolled her eyes, “Yeah, right!”

  “Ariana, you are the bigger sister and you should look out for your sister.” Ashton said while looking in his empty cup of coffee.

  Ariana knew he was about to voice his real purpose for coming here.

  Ashton swallowed and said lightly, “Speaking of Gina.” He stopped and look up at her. “You and Michael is really close and he seemed to fancy you at the moment.”

  ‘At the moment?’ Ariana frowned at his words.

  “For my sake or your little sister’s sake, can you ask him to have Johnson agree to the divorce?” Ashton looked at her with hopeful eyes but was surprised by the answer her got.
