Asteria was so devastated by the incident that happened to her.

She cant handle the feeling in her heart so she just ran away from there to get some fresh air.

Kylie was about to follow her but Ian stopped her,

" I will look her " . Kylie nodded at Ian and looked at Felix then asked Casper,

" what are you going to do with him, Casper? "

" Well, we Hamington's are going to terminate our partnership with you. Mr Felix "

Casper looked at Felix coldly and said

" what ? How can it be possible, Mr Casper please you can't terminate our partnership for a girl "

Felix begged

" you not only slut shame Ms Faith but also disrespect the entire women's. This mistake is unforgivable.

Hamington's will not allow these kinds of things so you may leave now, face whatever the consequence that comes from the Faith family,

we are not going to be involved with you anymore " with that Casper left scene.

Asteria was in the garden of Casper's villa. She was exhausted, tired.

" Asteria " Ian called out.

" Yes, I’m here "

" I looked for you everywhere. " Ian said worriedly.

" Sorry, I was so exhausted, I need some air so I came here " she said and looked away from him.

" are you okay? " Ian asked soothingly

" no, I am not " Asteria said as a tear drop escaped from her right eye.

" Hey don't cry, I'm here for you " Ian creased her shoulder.

" I was so scared, I was helpless. I don't know what to say, never ever in my life have I felt this way ” Asteria cried out.

Ian immediately wrapped his strong arms around her. Asteria cried in his arms.

" Hey, don't cry. I am here for you. I will not let anything happen to you. I will protect you no matter what happens "

Asteria broke the hug and looked at Ian.

She remembered what Ian said earlier. There were so many questions in Asterias mind.

Looking at Asterias eyes Ian understands what she is thinking.

Sometimes eyes can tell more than your mouth. Ian smiled slightly and took Asteria's hands

" this may be too fast for you but I really fell for you from the first day I saw you. I like you... No, I really love you... truly... deeply... "

Asteria was speechless. She doesn't know how to react. Never ever in a million years she expects Ian will feel the same way she feels.

" I-I..."

" No I know you love me the way I love you... I can see through your eyes "

Asteria looked at Ian for some good seconds and hugged him tightly.

" I am glad that you know it "

" so you are my girlfriend from now on wards " Ian asked teasingly.

" Of course I am. "

Little did you know someone was watching these entire scenes with a broken heart.
