Ouch, My CEO Fiance Fell For His Maid

Epilogue 1

Ashley Deluca’s pov: (Two years later)

“Tell me, love. What happened?” the little girl seemed so scared. This was her third day with me and still, she was not opening up with anyone.

The psychiatrist had advised me to keep trying daily with all the love and gentleness as the girl seemed to like me a lot.

“Hey, Sana.” I held the hand of sixteen years old who had a pale face and used to shiver when anyone around her used to speak loudly. She easily used to get scared of rain and thunderstorms.

“I promise. Whatever you would tell me, it won’t go out of my office,” I felt her grip tightening around my hand.

This was encouraging.

And then a miracle started happening. Her lips shook and she blinked her eyes a few times. The tears started dropping down her cheeks, “He … he might come back.”

She stuttered. Her eyes were glued to the door.

“No one is coming here, Sana. You are safe here, child.” I left my seat and crouched down on the floor, “That man will never come back. He is in jail. Doctors are trying to talk to you. We all are here to take you out of your misery, my love.”

She was crying silently, “I am scared. I… I am … what if they would get here? Last time they… they easily tore my clothes… L…Leaving me nak3d…” “No! No, my love!” I held her face between my palms, “No one. I swear, love … No one will ever touch you again.” I kissed her forehead. I will make her so much strong that no one will ever dare to touch her and scar her again. I promised myself silently.

The kid was now weeping silently in my arms. And I was sure she would heal. She would heal just like others did and then would move on like the rest of them.

That was my motto in life. That was my purpose in life.

After sending her away, I was completing my paperwork when someone entered my office.

“Mrs. Deluca?” The female senior lawyer who used to represent our NGO entered with a big smile on her face.

“Deena!” I rose to my feet for a handshake but was dead in my tracks when ignoring my hand, she hugged me tightly.

“Mrs. Deluca. We have won the case. The men who rap*ed her will stay behind bars for a long time!” She surprised me with the good news.

“Are you serious? We won?” I held her shoulder in disbelief.

‘Yes! We won!” she nodded her head at me.

“Oh my God, Deena. I am so proud of you.” “I did nothing. You were there beside me, behind me… at every step. This is YOUR hard work, Mrs. Deluca.” We both were adamant about giving the credit to each other. This was a pro bono case, and we were fighting it since last year.

When I went outside, I was grinning ear to ear. This facility was built right after Grandpa announced that I would get a good monthly profit chunk. I didn’t need that money. So, I came up with the idea to build an NGO that used to work for ra*pe victims. I had a team of psychiatrists and lawyers. We used to provide counseling to the victims. As a result, if they used to get pregnant then their consent was taken if they wanted to go with the pregnancy or put up the babies for adoption.

There were cases where we had to fight the culprits. Thanks to the best team of lawyers, we had gotten. Standing in the vast plush green gardens, I ran my gaze where a few patients were taking a stroll with their individual caretakers.
