Chapter 18 CH 18: What is Ashton?

Waiting in a large majestic looking room with baroque interior design, Anne was impressed with the priceless antiques on display at the sides of the room. She was too impressed that made her forget Ashton was still holding her hand linking their fingers.. possessively.

Earlier when Anne was happily chatting with Lucas outside in the garden, she was trying to get to know him better for Nellie. But, Ashton came and yanked her hand that was placed on Lucas’ arm. He came unexpectedly in between them and pulled her hand away from Lucas, forcing her to walk with him.

"You are such a drama queen. Let go of me!" Anne tried to get free from his hold on her wrist but he threatened to carry her on his shoulder if she disobey him again. Not wanting to create any more ridiculous scene, Anne kept quiet but she still kept trying to free her wrist from his grip with her mouth shut.
