The Billionaire's Contracted Wife Chapter 103

Tanaga arrives at grandmother Hanada's mansion faster than a bullet.  As soon as he arrived, he parked the car, didn't even bother turning off the engine.  He then quickly exited the vehicle and rushed inside the mansion like the grim-reaper was after him.

"Ashley! Ashley! Grandma! Where are you?" Tanaga shouted as he entered the mansion.

Grandma Hanada's butler was shocked to hear Tanaga shouting as he walks in.  The butler quickly came out to greet him. "Good day, Sir Jones!" He also bows to pay respect.

"Was there a Filipina woman that just came in? It's only been a few minutes. By the way, is my grandmother here?" Tanaga's questions consecutively as he made his way straight to the living room of the mansion.

The butler followed Tanaga as he roams around the mansion, looking for Ashley. "Sir, I have not seen anyone arriving at the last minute or so, and your grandmother is currently resting. Do you want me to wake her up? Just a moment and I'll go get her." The butler said quickly as he was about to leave.

"Wait a minute! Do you mean to say that there's, is no woman in here? That's good! Forget waking Grandma up. Thank you very much!" Tanaga said as he turned around and walked out of the mansion as quick as he came in.

The butler scratches his head as he gazed at his boss's grandson. ' I wonder who the woman that he was looking for was? Is it perhaps the same woman that was here before?  The one that Grandma Hanada had asked to live here? I wonder who is that woman to him that his acting crazy? ' The Butler mumbles to himself as he goes to see Grandma Hanada, to tell her that Tanaga came, but he also left immediately.

No sooner than Tanaga was out of the mansion, he suddenly stops.  He realized that he doesn't know where to look for Ashley and her bodyguard. He then remembers that he could call Tiny and find out where they are.

Fortunately, Ashley and Tiny were inside the mall, and he was following her in a short distance. So Ashley didn't notice when Tiny answered the phone call.

"h.e.l.lo!  Sir, Tanaga?  How can I help you?"  He asked, curiously.

"Where are you now?!" Tanaga shouted as he spoke. Tiny feels like he just busted his eardrum from the way Tanaga's loud voice.  He had to put the cellphone away from his ear, to listen to him.

"I'm sorry, sir Jones... Ma'am Ashley might get mad at me if I tell you where we at right now." Tiny replied without thinking about how Tanaga would react.

'What the heck is wrong with this man, does he know who he's speaking with? '  Tanaga thought after hearing his reply.  

"Tiny! If you still want to live long enough to see your grandchild be born, you better tell me right now where you at. Do you understand?!" Tanaga shouted again as his ears and nose were blowing smoke in anger.

' Shall I tell him? What if ma'am Ashley gets mad at me for tattle-telling?  What should I do then? ' Tiny was thinking while contemplating how he should respond to a bigger boss.

"Sir, as I said ... Ma'am might get angry at me. I'm sorry, but I can't tell you." Tiny replied, barely audible, afraid that Tanaga would lose it this time.

"Tiny !!!! Your s...o...b..  Are you an idiot or what? Who pays your salary, isn't it me?! Why are you more afraid of Ashley getting mad at you, but not scared of me firing you? You deep s.h.i.+t, either you tell me now, or I'll kill you when I find you! " Tanaga shouted louder, hoping that it would work on Tiny.

Eventually, Tiny revealed where they were. When he heard the last word, Tanaga said...  That did it, "Sir, Jones, we are here at the Mega International Mall downtown near the condominium.  If there's nothing else that you need,  I need to check on ma'am Ashley.  I think she may have a problem with the store she went into." 

He didn't wait for Tanaga's response, he quickly turned off the phone and walked towards the store where Ashley was browsing.  He could see from the reaction of the salesman towards Ashley, and it doesn't look right.  Just as he was arriving, he heard every word the salesman said to Ashley.

"If you are not buying anything, as you just said that you have no money and only browsing.  I think you should hang around elsewhere. Can't you see that everything here is all expensive? You are ruining the store's atmosphere." Said the salesman to Ashley.

With the salesman's overwhelming voice, other customers suddenly came forward and wondered what was going on.  The onlooker began questioning the salesman out of curiosity.

"What happened? Did she steal something? Why didn't you call the police? Why are you asking her to leave?" A customer asked while looking at Ashley from head to toe.

"Apology for the nuisance, she didn't steal anything, she just said she didn't have any money, and she was just browsing, so I told her that she was just ruining the atmosphere and that she was better off just hanging out elsewhere." The salesman replied to the customer, who asked him.

"Oh my! I swear, these people... They know they can't afford to buy anything. But they keep on dreaming of owning one. Hmph! Another customer said as she looked at Ashley from head to toe.

Once other customers started gathering around them, Ashley was embarra.s.sed.  She lowered her head and covered her face before she began to make her way to the door slowly so she could get away. 

Just as she was almost near the door, she accidentally b.u.mped into someone.  "Oh' my G.o.d!  Saint Mary!" She exclaimed as she retreaded abruptly ...  She was unable to estimate and was out of balance.  Her b.u.t.t landed on the cold ground.

Everyone around her began laughing out loud while pointing at her.  Ashley was so embarra.s.sed and couldn't look up.  'G.o.d, please... Just let me get out of here, I promise I will be good... Please!'  She prays as she tries to get up so she could leave.

Tiny, who had just arrived when he heard how the j.a.panese department store salesman reprimanded Ashley. Suddenly Tiny's eyebrows rose, and his bodyguard instinct came out to protect her charge. Tiny pushed the people around Ashley, one by one trying to get to Ashley.

"This b.a.s.t.a.r.d!  Do they know who she is? They are messing with the wrong person!"  Tiny was ready to defend his charge from those who insulted her ...   However, right before he was able to reach Ashley, someone else beat him to her.

"Ashley! Oh 'my G.o.d! It's a small world! I'm sorry! Come, let me help you get up." Alden Sanches then extended his palm to help Ashley get up.

When Ashley heard her name being called, she raised her face to see who this man was that so excited to see her ... Ashley's eyes suddenly widened to see the man in front of her ... "Alden Sanches! OMG " It just came out of her mouth ...
