"Ashley, Sarah hasn't betrayed me. It's you who confessed that you told lie about Sarah's drug and said you misunderstood everything, didn't you? Then how could you blame her again? In fact, the video you show of Sarah's confession about drugs and denying to get married to me was a lie, whole bloody lie."
Ronald clenched his fist and blabber whatever he can still restrain himself to let Ashley know that he has already discovered her truth. Ashley thought Ronald is confused because of a series of events, and she shouldn't stop provoking him against Sarah.
"Ronald, calm down. I know I was wrong and even I confessed my mistake because I realized and apologizing again for realizing it late, but there are many more hidden facts, don't you think?"
Ronald frown at her drama, is she confessed or compel to confess because of Sarah? Ronald sighed suppressed his thoughts and asked coldly, "What was that?"
"None of us know where Sarah was at the time of marriage if she didn't elope? Why she was back in Stefan's arm and if she wasn't wrong then why she hasn't answered your questions? Why she put forth the condition to get married to you, her own love? Even when you were ready to get married to her, what was her purpose to show tantrums?"
Ronald shook his head inwardly.
'Ashley, I am compelled to praise the ability of your malicious heart and cunning brain. You are so eloquent when it is about to entrap or instigate anybody with your words. If I wasn't knowing the true face of yours, then I would be successfully triggered by you.' Ronald thought, but before he could answer Ashley a sound of laughing like a bell dragged their attention.
They both looked down from the balcony and saw Stefan and Sarah were walking in the garden hand in hand, laughing and talking. The scene pained both of their heart, Ashley was jealous of Sarah and Ronald was regretful.
"Sarah, just says yes, my sweet angel," Stefan said in a flattering tone, sliding his hand on Sarah's waist and pulling her towards him.
"No, u turned so shameless nowadays."
Sarah shook his hand from her waist and was about to run far from Stefan, but Stefan who got her intention was fast enough, he held her hand and pulled her that her back strike with Stefan's chest he immediately circled his arm on her stomach and looked her in back hug.
"Shameless? How? I want to go on honeymoon with my wife, not anybody else." Stefan leans to her ears and whispered, which made the scene ambiguous.
Sarah blushed and Stefan whistle, seeing her red cheeks because of him.
"You look awesome with red clouds formed on your cheeks."
Stefan continued teasing her and kissed her red cheeks, Sarah was shyer by his action and smack his hand on her stomach.
"Stefan, this is not our private chamber but the garden."
Sarah scold him and tried to break free from his tight grip, but couldn't compete with his masculine energy.
"Really, I didn't know it." Stefan teased her.
"Shut up, you can't start your romance session wherever you want."
"I am romancing with my wife and I can do it anytime, anywhere I want," Stefan said overbearingly.
Sarah smirk with a thought, hit his elbow on Stefan's stomach, break free from his embrace when he was wincing in pain, and ran towards the house. Stefan ran behind her and both of their laughter echoed in the garden.
"See, Ronald, such a big opportunist she is, as she came to know that you will not get married to her, she immediately trapped Stefan."
Ashely took the entire scene in her favor to instigate Ronald, but she doesn't know that her attempts are wasted.
"Sometimes before you said, I agreed to marry her still she refused me, aren't you sure about your words."
Ronald looked at Ashley's face while confronting her but she hasn't changed her expression in fact immediately twisted her words.
"I guess she came to know that Stefan is a more powerful and successful businessman than Walters' entire company, and his alone financial status is higher than entire Walters."
By talking about money and property between all this she already touched Ronald's taboo, he chided her, "Ashley enough."
"Why, Ronald? Why you can't listen to anything about Sarah when she could shamelessly romance with Stefan in an open space. Why are you still smoldering thinking about your past?"
"I am not smoldering. I was the one who first decided to move on from here and get married to you, now why would I be jealous if she has moved on. I am glad she is strong enough and I am happy for Stefan and Sarah, both."
"You are happy for her, but what about me? Out of the blue, you decided to get married to me and ruined my life. You are not even trying to move on with me and Sarah is enjoying her life with her husband. Ronald, tell me between all that what I got? Nothing but deep misery." Ashely said with a gloomy face and tears welled up in her eyes. No matter what she is doing to gain Ronald's attention, he is indifferent.
"If you are not happy in this relation, you can go for divorce, I am agreed. I will not force to hold it anymore."
Ronald said blankly, and Ashley's eyes widen in shock. She doesn't want this.
Ashley froze by Ronald's sudden words and couldn't able to say anything when she opened her mouth to say Ronald and Ashley heard the shocked voice of Julia.
"Ronald......."
Julia's voice echoed in the entire room, Ronald and Ashley were standing on the balcony facing their back towards the room and failed to notice when Julia entered their room and heard the latter half of their conversation.
They both together turned around and saw Julia was standing with a glass of warm milk in her hand & looking towards them with a frown face. Her expressions turned ugly after listening to that, they are discussing divorce.
Ronald was surprised to see Julia in his room, "Mom, why are you here at this hour?"
"I came here to give you the glass of milk which Ashley forgot in the kitchen and wanted to check whether you are alright or no."
Ronald slightly tilt his head and gave Ashley a sharp glare which was blaming her and she also realized her mistake and crouch her head.
"But what were you both talking about? You both recently got married and why do you want the divorce, what's wrong between you two, please tell me."
Julia was anxious, but Ashley found it a perfect opportunity and immediately turned the table towards Ronald and made a family pressure.
"It's not me who was talking about divorce, Ronald said it first," Ashley smirk inwardly, but didn't forget to shed a few tears to pretend in front of Julia.
