When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1492

“Mm.” Ashton took the laptop from him and placed it on the desk.

Glancing at my watch, I realized there was five minutes left before the half an hour was up. “Gregory, it isn’t time yet. Why did you stop playing?”

Gregory shook his head. “I’ve finished my coding. I want to play with Audrey.”

He took Audrey’s hand and offered, “Do you want to play with me?”

Audrey hopped excitedly. “Yeah!”

They exchanged gazes and laughed merrily before heading to Gregory’s room. Soon, we could hear their giggling from afar.

Ashton’s voice rang out behind me. “Is something up?”

“Yes.” I met his gaze before walking in slowly and sat down in a chair against the wall. “Since you’re recuperating at home, we need to talk.”

Ashton signaled for Joseph to leave.

“Joseph isn’t an outsider. He can stay.”

Hearing my words, Ashton turned and sat down in his chair. “You can begin now.”

“Mm.” He was calm, so I didn’t know where to begin. Lowering my head, I gathered my thoughts before looking up to speak. “You’ve gotten used to your status now, right?”

“What status?” asked Ashton.

“My husband, the kids’ father, and the Stovall family’s live-in son-in-law,” I raised my voice when I reached the last one.
