A Moment in Destiny

He reached out his long arms and pulled her close to himself.

Sherry groaned, her heart was racing as she was lying in his broad and strong chest. She felt the sweetness in her heart.

Then, he pulled her chin up.

Their eyes met and they looked at each other...

Then he lowered his head, and Sherry came forward to him, then they had a gentle, lingering and delicate kiss.

...

Cohen and Ashley were in the villa on top of West Hill.

Ashley was putting on her make-up when Cohen grabbed her and brought her there.

"What do you want from me?" Ashley's eyes were filled with anxiety, "It's my engagement party tonight, if you want money, you can ask my father, or why don't I tell him and he will bring you some right now?"

Cohen shook his head, "I don't want money!"

"Then what do you want?"

"I want you not to marry Leon!"

"Why?"

"Because he doesn't love you!" Cohen pulled a grimace, "He never did, if I am right, then you are the one that attacked him first, he has no choice but to marry you right?"

"How did you know?" Ashley's eyes widened, "You are talking bullshit, Leon likes me! He likes me!"

Towards the end of the sentence, Ashley's voice turned down, she didn't have the confidence anymore, because she never heard Leon say that he loved her, she realized that she was always the confronting end.

"Ashley, do you know that your step mother has a daughter?" Cohen said in a lowered voice, his eyes were resting on her with a sharp expression, as if he wanted to see through her, to see if she was as cruel as Sierra and Payne.

Ashley looked at his cold face that carried a deeply complicated look, she looked surprised, "What are you talking about? Sierra has a daughter? That's not possible, why would she not tell me if this is true?"

"Is she nice to you?" Cohen asked.

"She really loves me, why?"

Cohen smirked, "That woman really is strange, she never cared about her own child, but she takes care of someone else's child like her own."

"I don't know what you are talking about, let me go!" Ashley was getting anxious, she could see the sky turning dark outside, it took her a lot of work for Leon to agree to this engagement, what would she do if she lost this chance?

Cohen's expression didn't change, it was still the cold and serious face, his eyes were fixed on Ashley's anxious expression, and his voice was just as cold, "You could have left, but now you can't anymore, nobody will simply leave after hurting my daughter. If you want to blame someone, then it should be your mother and father, nobody asked them to annoy my child. You will have to stay here now! And after Leon has married someone else, I will still keep you another decade!"

"Ah!" Ashley's face was now pale, and her eyes reddened, "You can't do that, what have I done wrong? What did we do to anger you? What did my dad and Sierra do? I want to marry Leon, I love him, you can't do this to me, I want to marry him!"

"Marry? Don't even think about it!" Cohen laughed.

"Why, I don't care, let go of me, I am a good kid, why are you doing this? I have done nothing to offend you!"

"Why are you screaming? If I hear you scream one more time I will sell you to south east Asia and you can work as a whore there!" Cohen said coldly, his expression was still as cold and freezing, spreading fear.

Ashley started crying, she looked at him and couldn't believe his words, she could feel herself being trapped under a dome, she was so scared that she didn't even dare to speak again.

At that time, his phone rang, it was Susan calling, his cold face seemed to soften a little, and there was a gentle touch to it.
