Chapter 5 Attempted rape

Ashley turned to Mark. He looked at the stacking boxes and then yelled angrily.

"Are we going to spend all day carrying these boxes? Hurry up."

Bella breathed wearily; they were working hard, but Zola didn't do anything.

"Why does Zola not help us? She's just a worker like us."

Bella asked and then fixed her gaze on Zola,, who was moving behind Ashley like his shadow,,.

"You see, Mr. Ashley, she's got me in her head."

"I don't put you in my head. I tell Mr. Ashley the truth."

"Bella is right," Mark said.

Zola clapped her hands after hearing Mark's words, then rolled her eyes between them.

"Since this girl came, you have been agreeing with her on everything and defending her."

,, Somehow Zola wanted to make Bella look bad in front of Ashley.,,

The fight started between them, and Ashley was fed up and then shouted at them, but it got worse.

His gaze fixed on Bella... His eyes sparkled with cunning as he looked at her shirt, which Zola had torn.

He approached them to break up this fight to allow his hands to touch Bella's body.

"I'll show you who the whore is, you snake."

"Zola, that's enough."

Zola did not listen to him... Her hatred of Bella has increased. He defends her and fends off her punches.

"Choose between us, me or her."

Zola waited to hear his reply. She was sure that he would choose her.

"She."

Zola's features faded from shock...she couldn't believe what she heard.

"He chose her."

Zola's tears fell, then she hurried inside ... He broke her heart with his reply. He finally noticed the severity of his response. He hurried after her, shouting her name.

"Zola"

Mark was elated by what Bella had done, applauding her.

"You disfigured her face with your fingernails, girl. You really are amazing."

Bella's smile widened with artificial arrogance... she returned to her work without thinking about those looks or those touches with which Ashley touched her body when he was breaking up the fight. She didn't notice that behind what he did with vile intentions.

"Let's go on with our work so that Mr. Albert won't be angry with us when he finds out about what happened today."

..

"Where are you going, Zola? I didn't mean. You made me lose my mind."

"I told you to stop fighting with her."

He moved his hands slowly on her slender waist...She pushed him away from her and was still crying.

"You chose this girl over me. I know you like her, Ashley."

He wished... he could have Bella, but Bella is not easy like Zola.

"Zola, my dear, you know how much I love you. I don't see a woman other than you...this girl whose name I don't remember is nothing compared to you."

Her features rejoiced at his words, and she believed his sweet words. She leaned towards him, letting him touch her body.

"Don't look at her again."

Ashley laughed slyly, and then nodded.

"I don't look at anyone but you."

Zola raised her eyes at him. His touches became more daring.

"I love you, Ashley."

He pulled her towards the warehouse and then muttered.

"I want you in my apartment today, Zola."

She clung to his neck, whispering after she nodded her head.

"I want you to take back my right from Bella."

Although he was not convinced of what she was asking him to do but was giving him what would comfort his body.

Ashley arranged his clothes as she did and then went out before her, listening to Mark's banter with Bella ... Hatred broke out in his heart without knowing the reason.

"Are we going to spend the whole day joking? Go to your work so I don't fire any of you today."

"We've been working since morning, sir. It is our rest time." Bella said.

"Are you arguing with me?"

Ashley's face darkened from her answer to him... He approached her, grabbed her arm, and angrily pushed her forward.

"Don't make me kick you out today...isn't it enough that we let you sleep in the restaurant?"

Zola stood looking at her with hatred...the pain was drawn on Bella's face.

Bella wiped her bruised forehead...She has to wait a bit until she collects some money. Mark rushed towards her to free her from Ashley's grip.

"Pay attention to your work, or else I will fire you. Do not think that I am like my father... I ignore mistakes."

..

They have to devise a marketing plan for the new product to regain the rise of the company's shares from those losses that David caused.

"Mr. Alexander, we need a model of women who suffer from harsh living conditions, women who have faced many difficulties in their lives and are still steadfast and struggling without being defeated by the force of circumstances...the women we can help them and give them a chance to live."

The marketing team determined the specifications of the girl who would lead the advertising campaign.

Before the meeting ended, the marketing manager was putting in front of him the girl's specifications.

"We need a twenty-year-old girl. Our investment group will support her, such as setting up a special project for her or completing her university education."

"This idea will make our product in front of our customers with a purpose and a message."

The meeting lasted for two hours, and he was convinced of the new idea they had reached. The idea that others may have done before, but they really need something that attracts their target audience.

His mind was preoccupied with the specifications of the girl required for the advertising campaign for his company, so he did not accept the invitation of one of his friends to have a drink with him.

The servant put down the coffee cup, looking at him. He was immersed in his thoughts and staring at the papers in front of him absent-mindedly.

"Do you need anything else, sir?"

Alexander looked at him with a gentle smile, and then took a cup of coffee... He let out a heavy breath.

"Thank you, Mr. Shan. You can go to sleep."

Mr. Chan nodded to him and left the room. Although he drank two cups of coffee, he could not complete his work.

He turned off the light in the room and headed upstairs, massaging his neck.

He climbed the stairs slowly. He lay down on the bed and fell asleep without trouble.

..

Ashley faltered after trying to stand up several times. He looked around, looking for a girl to satisfy his desire, but he was tired of their used bodies. He wants a new girl.

"Today, I see you frowning. It doesn't happen with you when we're here. Look around. We're in our favorite place."

"Their favorite place." ...It was the nightclub among the whores.

"I've had enough of their bodies. I want a new girl. I want her to be a virgin that no one has touched."

Her image invaded his mind...He wanted her desperately.

He swallowed his saliva, and then his breathing became more rapid.

"Virgin! Where are we going to find her? All the girls here go from man to man."

One of the girls approached him... Ashley pushed her away, and then he got up after feeling suffocated.

"I'm leaving. I'm not in the mood to do anything tonight."

He moved with faltering steps, and laughter rose around him until he left the club.

He breathed wearily and then took out his car key. Her image returned to storm his mind... She is there sleeping in the restaurant.

His eyes sparkled with lust, so why did he not go to her to enjoy her and enjoy himself with her body?

She rose from her nap, looking around in fear, after noticing that one of the seats outside had fallen.

Her heart trembled in terror. She searched for her phone to turn on the light to illuminate the darkness. She asked in a trembling tone.

"Who's there?"

There was silence, but she was beginning to feel suspicious. She tried to reassure herself, talking to herself.

"It could be a cat that entered the restaurant...don't worry, Bella."

She fell back to her doze, pulling the sheet over her after placing her phone under the pillow she was sleeping on.

There is someone's breath close to her. Touches began to move on her thighs...He shackles her with his legs.

She rose up with all her strength, looking at the owner of these eyes and the bottle he was holding in his hand, and before letting out her screams, he was handcuffing her with his hands and gagging her mouth.

"Don't yell. I'm Ashley. I want you tonight. I can't see you every day in front of me without touching you."

She screamed and resisted, but it was as if she was pushing a solid wall away from her... His physical strength was far beyond hers.

Ashley's gaze flashed with desire, and his hand moved boldly across her body. He was able to tie her with his legs and arms.

"Get away from me. Don't do anything to me."
