Sophieâs pov I woke up with the sound of knuckles hitting my door roughly and my name being yelled.
âSoph. Wake up!â Mila yelled knocking on the door again.
Ashtonâs little body stirs and my eyes peel open reluctantly.
Did I oversleep?
âSoph wake up.
Theyâre towing your car!â Mila yells louder.
L1 My heart skips and I quickly shot up from the bed.
Ashton stirs and rolls around until he wakes up completely.
I rushed to the door, unlocking it and swinging it open quickly.
âWhat?!â I breathed out in a hast.
Why would they tow my car? Milaâs eyes are wide.
âTheyâre towing your car.
Riaâs trying to stop them but they wonât listen.â I looked back at a still sleepy Ash and then peeked at the small clock on my nightstand Itâs six a.m! I look back at Mila.
âKeep an eye on him, Iâll be back.â She nods, stepping into the room as I rushed out.
When Iâm in the living room, I run towards the window.
My hair is messy around me, and swings over my face when I opened the window From here I can see my car as clear as day.
And Mila was right, there stood Ria in nothing but her nightgown and flapping her hands wildly as she argued with the men currently towing my car.
âHey!â I screamed loudly for everyone to hear me.
All heads whip up to face me.
âWhat the hell are you doing to my car?!â I snapped, my hair whipping around me wildly âSomeone called us to bring it to the wrecking yard.â One of the men yelled back and motioned to the other to continue.
âWrecking yard!?â I yelled in disbelief.
Who the hell would call these people to get rid of my Mary......
My eyes narrowed on a familiar black SUV pulling up beside the tow truck.
Is that Aid The door opens at the back and Aiden gets out.
He brushes a hand through his hair and closes the door before walking up to one of the men.
What the hell!? I moved away from the window, breathing hastily as I grew angry.
Was this Aidenâs doing?
Of course it was.
He was the only one to stoop as low as this to get even with me.
Mila comes jogging from the room with Ashton in her arms.
âDid they stop?â She asked quickly, looking worried.
I shook my head, my hands fisting at my sides.
âIâm going to kill him.â I gritted through my teeth.
Milaâs brows knot in confusion.
âWhoâs him? Who are we killing?â I looked at Ashton and then back at her before replying.
âAiden.
Iâm going to rip him a new one for thinking he can just get rid of my car as he pleases.â
Milaâs brows raised in shock.
âHeâs the one...â
I nodded.
âIâll be back,â I said quickly and scurried out of the room and down the hall.
Iâve never skipped so many stairs as quickly as I am now.
Iâm actually breaking records.
By the time Iâm almost at the end of the stairs, I am out of breath.
But I donât care that my lungs arenât getting enough air.
My main focus is getting out before they go with my car.
I opened the door quickly, the cool moming air kissing my face and waking me up even more if the news of my car getting towed didnât do the trick.
Aidenâs talking to the men, motioning him to do God knows what.
Ria is snapping at the other, glaring at the tow truck.
âHey!â I yelled, walking up to Aiden and the man.
âWhat the hell do you think youâre doing to my car?â I snapped, fuming while glaring into his blue eyes.
Theyâre not that stormy this early but when he senses my anger, the storm starts to brew.
âIâll not have you driving our son in that death trap.â He says curtly, turns around and ignores me while telling the man heâd want my car crushed.
Anger makes my head foggy as I cursed.
âAiden what the fuck do you think youâre doing? You canât just come here and get rid of my car.
You have no right, itâs my car!â He ignores me and I grow even angrier.
âYou damn bastard.â I snarled, shouldering his arm because I wasnât tall enough to shoulder him properly as I step forward to talk to the man who seems in charge.
âThis is my car, you canât just tow it.â I seethed at the man who looks apologetic.
I gasped when Aidenâs fingers wrap around my arm and tug me away from the man and turns around to face me.
His eyes drop to stare at my tank top.
âWhat the hell are you wearing Sophie!?â He barks.
I didnât have a bra on because I donât sleep with them when going to bed.
And not having the opportunity to do so because someone decided to have my car towed, my nipples were now on full display thanks to the cool air.
I crossed my arms over my chest and glared at him.â What are you, my dad? If you werenât having my car towed so early in the morning maybe Iâd have enough time to be more decent.â I snapped, pulling away from him roughly.
He had some nerve.
Oh that storm in his eyes brewed.
âGet inside Sophie.â Aiden grits, jaw ticking I ignored him and focused on the man.
âI demand you leave my car or Iâll call the cops,â I warned.
The man shakes his head.
âSorry maâam but the reports showed that the car is in very bad shape and the breaks arenât working properly-â
âWhat damn reports! This is all this assholeâs doing!â I snapped pointing at Aiden.
Did he really think that now he had a say in anything concerning me?
âThat death trap is in bad shape Sophie.
Itâs old âYour main concern should be Ashton, not me and my car Aiden! Iâll get rid of the car on my own.â I spat.
âWhat the hell do you think Iâm doing here Sophie? Iâm concerned about my sonâs safety when you drive that thing.
Tow the car Shawn.â He snarled and reached out for me.
Grabbing my arm, he tugs me away as Shawn told the other men to continue.
L âLet go of me asshole.â I hissed, trying and failing to get my arm out of his grip âIâm doing you a favor here Sophie.
That car needs to be dumped before it gets you into trouble.â
My eyes turn into slits at his face.
âSince when do you care if I get into trouble? Was it not yesterday you said you loathe? So why now care about someone you loathe?â I snapped, trying to pull away from him.
But instead, he stops and tugs me to him.
I let out a rush of air when my front slams against his.
He holds me there, leaning down so our eyes would be leveled.
âAnd I had every right to say that for what you did to me!â He seethed lowly.
âAnd you did me worst!â I retorted, glaring into his eyes.
âWhat did I do to you that was worst than keeping someoneâs son existence a secret from them Sophie!?â Aiden growled, lifting his head and pinching the bridge of his nose with his free hand.
âYouâre giving me a damn headache.â Sighing he drops his hand at his side but still keeps the other locked around my arm.
âLook, if you pissed about the car be reassured I bought you a new one that âI donât need your charity.â I cut off, tugging out of his arm roughly when he least expected it.
âWhy are so damn pissed about this!?â Aiden huffed.
âMany women would be happy at the thought of someone buying them a brand new car âIâm clearly not like other women Aiden.
I donât need you to buy me anything.
Iâm not some charity case.â Aidenâs eyes turned into slits of rage.
âSophie, my son will not be getting inside that death trap.
Itâs either you accept the car or heâll come with me.
