"Hey mom" he wished back with same enthusiasm. "How are you doing nowadays?" She asked as he rolled his eyes. "I\'m not 12 years kid and I\'m doing fine. Just missing you guys" he said shaking his head as he slowed down the speed abit. "Oh that\'s great because we are coming to your mansion for dinner today. I\'m missing both of my babies" she said as he chuckled lowly.
"We are not babies anymore for thousandth time but leave it. How\'s dad doing?" Zane asked with a smile. "As always busy in his meetings but we will definitely come and inform Ashton now I have to go and get ready and bring your dad back so bye. I love you" Zane\'s mom said and Zane replied "me too mom.
Be careful." She chuckled as she cut the call and he grinned as he dialled Ashton\'s number and cleared his throat as he waited for Ashton to pickup.
Ashton who just closed his file with a Huff as he re-read the contract details got startled at the ring of his mobile and searched for it. Getting annoyed as it was on the desk but hidden from his eyes, he messed up everything on his table as he threw the files away until he got the mobile. As he found it successfully, he sat on his chair sighing as the call went off.
Looking at the missed call, he rolled his eyes and called back keeping it on his ear waiting for Zane to pickup.
"Hey man" Zane said as he stopped near a red light on the road, filled with traffic. "Hey buddy" Ashton wished back tiredly. "Where are you now?" Zane asked making Ashton frown. "Office. I was just done with a meeting in a hotel with your girlfriend and I met you there and where do you think I\'ll go?" Ashton asked sarcastically making Zane roll his eyes this time.
"So funny Parker" Zane said, annoyed. Ashton chuckled and asked "where are you?" Zane replied "I\'m going to our home and I want you to reach there before I do.
I need to speak many things to you and that\'s kind of urgent." "Should I worry about something?" Ashton asked as he stood up from his chair and closed his laptop as he grabbed the two files that he needed to work on and walked out of his cabin. "Surely. Worry about your life.
Be at home before I reach there Orelse mom is going to kill you" Zane said playfully and Ashton grinned as he realised they are coming from dinner. "Sure. Bye then I\'m coming" Ashton said and cut the call without even hearing Zane\'s reply.
He walked to his PA\'s cabin and asked him to lock his room before he leaves. His PA replied positively as Ashton ran into the lift as he waited for it to reach cellar. As the door of the lift opened, he walked to his car and opened the door as he kept his things in the passenger seat and closed his door before starting the car as he drove in high speed.
Zane started the car as red light turned green when his mobile buzzed again making him groan. Seeing an unknown number, he frowned before pressing on green button and put it on speaker and said "hello?"
He heard shuffling sound for a moment before he heard "hello sir. I\'m Ryan. I\'m the private investigator Mark arranged for you. What should I do?" As he sighed in relief. He was in no mood to do some business today.
"I want to find everything about Ashley Nicole from her favourite food to her relation with her parents and her education to her choices in clothes like literally every single thing about her" Zane said and he waited for Ryan to speak. Ryan hesitated for a moment before saying "yes sir."
"Good. Find all the details in two days and meet me personally to give them and remember this has to be confidential and no other person should know this" Zane warned, his voice cold as ice.
"Yes sir" Ryan stuttered and Zane cut the call as he threw his mobile in the dashboard and stopped his car infront of his mansion as he waited for the guards to open the gate and when they didn\'t, he frowned and rolled down the window to find guards holding their guns looking at the car.
That\'s when he realised he was in Ashley\'s car and called out for guards who immediately saluted him and opened the gates. Shaking his head, he parked the car in the garage before grabbing his mobile and got out of the car and closed the door as he ran into the mansion to find Ashton sitting there panting.
He grinned cheekily before sitting beside who glared at him. "Seriously Zane? You want me to be here in ten minutes when it was a half an hour ride? I broke three signals and drove so speed breaking speed limits" Ashton complained with a frown on his face while Zane rolled his eyes. Ashton pouted making Zane chuckle.
"Fine sorry but I wanted to talk to you" Zane said seriously and Ashton looked at him concerned. "Should we go into study room?" Ashton asked but Zane shook his head. "First ask Maria aunty to prepare dinner for everyone.
Mom and dad might be here in an hour and we have to get freshen up so we will talk after dinner about what I have to say you but I want to know your feelings towards Sherin first" Zane said making Ashton furrow his eyebrows.
"What\'s your sudden interest in her?" Ashton asked confused. Zane smacked his head and answered "if you want to date her or something, I have to make sure you are in good hands and none of you would be hurt at the end." Ashton glared at him playfully and said "I guess these lines are said to girls. Not to a guy like me who runs a whole company."
Zane rolled his eyes at his friends dramatics. He sometimes couldn\'t believe that a drama king like Ashton could handle a company. "Just tell me already" Zane said as he kept his elbows on his knees as he leaned forward entwining his both hands together waiting for Ashton to speak. Ashton went silent for a second before mimicking Zane\'s posture.
"I want to date her Zane. I really want to. And I\'m serious about this " Ashton said sincerely and Zane wasn\'t surprised. He Still remembered that Ashton didn\'t flirted with any girl after he came back from the hospital and it has been more than two years since that day. So he kind of had an idea that he is serious about her. "Then what\'s stopping you?" Zane cocked his head raising his eyebrows.
"I don\'t know. Maybe that she will reject me" Ashton said making Zane smirk. "Surely she will reject you when she has been googling you like ten times and getting flustered whenever she sees you" Zane said, still smirking making Ashton look at him with wide eyes. "Did you talked to my PA?" Ashton asked, looking dramatically annoyed and Zane smacked his head again. "Nope.
I came up to give Ashley a few papers that fell from her file and saw Sherin holding your hand and she looked flustered and you were being cocky with her" Zane replied mockingly. Ashton looked at him completely embarassed as Zane bursted into laughter.
"Fine I admit I like her and I think she likes me too. But I am just not sure about this. Maybe she\'ll leave me after she gets to know that we are involved in Mafia or she couldn\'t handle it?" Ashton said looking like a lost child. "Ash" Zane sighed. He could understand Ashton\'s insecurities. He was always like this.
He always thinks he wasn\'t enough for deserving happiness and love. Most of the times, Zane found out that Ashton blames himself for his parents death and the pressure he indirectly puts on Zane to find out who killed his parents.
"See you don\'t need to reveal your identity in the starting itself. Tell her when you feel that you both are sure about eachother and nothing can hold her back and I\'m sure she will handle it. She is strong enough. And they aren\'t any Teenagers. She is someone who makes someone alive. I feel she will understand" Zane said and Ashton found himself calming down.
"But what if even after loving me and everything, she couldn\'t accept that I related to Mafia?" Ashton asked making Zane sigh. "Then she is not right for you but I don\'t think that would happen. She is strong headed. She will fight for something if she wants it and I saw it today" Zane said, lost in thoughts making Ashton frown. "What happened today?" Ashton asked pulling Zane out of his thoughts.
"No nothing. Let\'s get freshen up I\'ll tell you everything after dinner. I\'ll just ask Maria aunty to prepare our favourites for dinner" Zane said standing up from the couch as he dusted his jeans and walked inside the kitchen to find Maria restocking the food.
