Ouch! My CEO Fiancé Fell For His Maid Chapter 33

33- My First Kiss

Ashley Walters pov

When I wiped my nose with his t–shirt, I felt him shaking with mirth, but I did not dare to look up.

Holding my hand, he brought me back to his room, “You are asking me to bring her back, kitten. Do remember. I am doing it for you.” His body language was enough to tell me that he was still not convinced, “I wanted to keep you safe. You don’t know people around here.”

Once inside, I turned to him, “Don’t worry about my safety, chief.” I saluted him, “There is a personal bodyguard assigned to me by some pervert. He will keep me safe.” I was sure there was this devilish streak in my voice.

His eyes went wide, he threw back his head and laughed loudly, “You knew? B… but how?”

“My friends noticed him just last night.”

“Your friends sound sharp.” He seemed impressed by them. I wanted to ask him what he had decided about Sarah.

“So… Justin? Umm…”

“Ok. Bring her back.” He sighed and nodded, then took me in his arms, “but I have got few conditions of my own.”

I was taken aback by it, “What? Conditions?”

“Yeah. Take it or leave it.” He shrugged nonchalantly, “Decide it now or let the matter go.”

“No, I want to hear those conditions, chief.” I narrowed my eyes tilting my head up. The way he was holding me, I did not think I could say no to him.

“Then hear me out.” Making me sit on the edge of the bed, he kneeled on the floor. For some reason it made me feel like we were an intimate couple where this man was deeply in love with me.

Come on, Ashley Walters. Wake up. Come back to the real world. I tried to warn myself.

He held my hands on my lap, “These conditions are nothing but your basic rights, Ashley. I had been thinking to offer you clothes, shoes, any necessity… you should watch movies even if I am not there, go and have your meals on that dining table like everyone else in the house…”

“Justin… No!” I was kind of terrified and freed my hands from his grip, “I am just a maid!” I cupped his cheeks, “Just a maid, Justin. Nothing else.”

“You are NOT a maid, Ashley. Stop calling yourself that!” He snapped, “That was why I was not asking you initially. You are stubborn, Ashley. But for all the wrong reasons. Know your rights, girl.”

“No,” I tried to be loud, “You can’t change it, Justin but…” He did not let me finish.

“YOU ARE NOT A MAID!” His voice raised louder than mine, “DAMN IT!”

When I went quiet, he spoke again but this time there was less harshness, “Every maid in the Deluca house signs a contract before he or she is hired. Did you sign any such contract?”

I stayed silent. No, I did sign one but that was not an employee’s contract.
