Chapter 44

"Can you get me the towel, please," I ordered Ashton after he put on his pajamas. I went out of the bathroom naked because I forgot to bring my towel, I was in a hurry to take a hot bath and just my luck, the button for the hot water is broken so I just settle with cold water.

"Why are you still taking a bath, it's so cold," Ashton complained as he handed me the towel, when we arrived at the penthouse he just rinsed his body for a minute and immediately got dressed.

"Because I'm used to it but I prefer the hot water, of course, I don't know how the button got broken," I complained as I wiped my naked body. When my body was already dry I immediately got dressed and sat next to Ashton on the bed.

"Can we watch a movie?" Ashton suddenly flirted with me, he grabbed my arm and pulled it like a child. I just laughed and nodded.

"You don't even have to ask for my permission, you can use everything here in the penthouse, even me," I said naughtily to him and I smirk when his cheeks turned red.

"Nah! I don't do that with the shabby body. It seems like you've been used thoroughly by a lot of men." He said with a smile that left a smirk on my lips until my smirk slowly fades away.

I looked at him seriously, he seemed nervous and I could see him swallowing his saliva.

"Did you just insult me?" I acted angrily and remove his hand from my arms, I quickly got out of bed and walked out of the room, when I felt that he is following me I immediately turned around and looked at Ashton sharply.

"Don't follow me, I need space," I said with no emotion and immediately turned my back on him again.

When I came out of the room I just covered my mouth and burst out laughing, if only he had seen his face, he would have burst out laughing too. I can see in his face that he's feeling guilty, I shook my head and laugh again remembering Ashton's defeated face. I love teasing him.

I didn't go back to the room, I let Ashton think I was hurt by what he said. I went to the main door of the penthouse and check if it was locked. When I was about to return to the room I suddenly heard as if someone was arguing outside. I immediately opened the door and peeked outside due to curiosity, it is rare for anyone to fight here because everyone who lives here is rich people who don't want their names go to the news headline, there is also a lot of security here so when someone fights they are immediately taken to the guardhouse.

"Stop it, Mark!" A man in the hallway shouted and walked quickly, followed by a man familiar to me, Mark. He lives next to me.

What are they arguing about? The man seemed very angry with Mark. I just shook my head and didn't ask any more questions, it looks like they won't hurt each other physically and I know Mark, he is not the violent type of guy.

I closed the door again and went back to the room, when I entered the room Ashton immediately walked towards me and hugged me tightly, I secretly smiled at what he did.

"I'm so sorry, daddy." He was like a child begging, when our eyes met I could not help but feel guilty when I saw his swollen eyes, it looks like he is crying for a while. Fuck! Did I make him cry? It doesn't seem like a good idea to tease him.

"I'm sorry, daddy." He begged again when I didn't respond to him.

"For what?" I replied and acted like I don't know what he's talking about.

"For insulting you, I just said that to annoy you, I didn't think it would offend you." He uttered almost tearfully.

"I'm sorry for pranking you too, baby," I said and couldn't help but laugh a little. His tearful appearance suddenly changed and was replaced by confusion.

"What?" He asked confused.

"Do you think I was offended by what you said? I just act as if I am, but not really. Because honestly, you are already using my body too many times." I confessed and couldn't stand it anymore and just burst out laughing especially when I said the last words.

"What? So you just do it to make me feel guilty?" He asked and seemed to be annoyed with my laughter so I laughed even more, it was nice to watch him every time he is pissed by me.

"I'm sorry baby, you're cute when you're annoyed," I replied and rubbed his cheek and laughed again. He didn't seem to like what I said because he removed my hand and suddenly turned his back on me, he jumped in the bed and covered his whole body with a blanket.

I immediately followed Ashton and remove the blanket over his head.

"Hey, I'm sorry baby." I apologize to him. I put a little kiss on his neck.

"Stop it." Ashton moaned and tickled by what I was doing, but instead of stopping, I planted more kisses on his neck.

"No, I won't stop until you accept my apology," I said and my kisses descended on his body.

"Stop, apology already accepted." He sighed and forcibly pushed me but it seemed like nothing because my body was bigger than his.

Moments later I stopped kissing his body and lay down next to him, we just stared at the white ceiling of the room while we're both chasing our breath.

We were so comfortable lying on the bed when the doorbell rang, Ashton and I looked at each other and frowned. We have no expected guests today, especially tonight.

"I'll open it," I said and got off the bed.

When I opened the door, I saw Mark's agitated face standing in front of the door.

"What do you want?" I asked and roll my eyes at him.

"I need your help, dude." He said, I raised an eyebrow at him because I already had a hunch what he wanted to ask me.

"I told you already dude if you are not in an open relationship with your boyfriend then quit your job already. I don't have all the time to save your ass every time your boyfriend catches you with your clients. I also have a job and a life." I sincerely preached to him, I told him a few times already but he was stubborn, I couldn't help but worry about him especially since I considered him as a brother, apart from Rex I only trusted Mark.

"I know dude, but you also said it was my job if I quit then I'll starve to death." He said sadly. I heaved a sigh.

"So what happened? I saw you arguing with your boyfriend earlier," I asked.

"He saw on my phone that I had a client booked tonight, he was raging in anger. I can not tell him what kind of job I have, I also don't know if he wants an open relationship. I don't know what to do, I want to keep my boyfriend but I don't want to quit this kind of job." I nodded in agreement with what he said.

"So what do you need from me? Your boyfriend came home already, you can now entertain your client." I said as a matter of fact. I saw him gulped but I just raised my eyebrow, he's been asking me for this kind of favor over and over again so I don't get it why he's still nervous right now.

"That's my problem, I'm going to follow Ethan in his apartment to talk to him, I will tell him everything. I just hoped he would understand me and won't force me to quit my job." He said.

I smiled at what he said.

"So what's the problem? Why don't you just cancel your booking tonight?" I asked him and he just scratches his neck as if he is shy or something.

"The problem is, my client has already paid me, I don't want to return the payment because the pay is too good, I already received 5,000 dollars and yet to receive the tip after my service tonight." He explained and I just nod at him.

"So you want me to take your place?" I raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, let's split the fee." He said but I just frowned hearing what he said.

"No dude, 70-30," I suggest. I think it's fair since I'm the one who will gonna fuck his client, it's my semen that will be wasted tonight and he did nothing so it would be unfair if we split it to half.

"Nope, 60-40 can do dude." With that said, I shook my head firmly at him.

"It's either 70-30 or no deal," I replied and smiled, he is the one who needs me so I should be the one to who has a final say.

"No, 60-40 plus you'll get the tip. Also, think of this as your payment of gratitude for watching Ashton when he had a fever and you're not available to nurse him." He said desperately.

"Oh, so now you're blackmailing me emotionally?" I laughed at the question, I know it is not his intention, he doesn't want me to feel guilty, he's just desperate.

"You know I hate to say that, but please dude." He begged me.

"Okay, go see your boyfriend now." I laughed and punched his shoulder, his smile widen and I just smirk at him.

"Go on before I change my mind." I threatened.

"Thanks, dude, I'll send you a message when the client is in my apartment already." He said smiling, I just nodded in response and closed the door after saying goodbye to him.

I went back to the room and saw Ashton watching a movie when he noticed my presence he immediately asked who knocked and why it took me so long to come back, so I told him what Mark and I had talked about.
