When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 79

Chapter 79 

It felt so horrible when he ignored me.

He let out a snort and retorted, “Mad? Do you think you can cool me down”

I fell silent at his words.

Mustering my courage, I sat up and leaned into his embrace clumsily.

Perhaps I was too heavy for him as he pushed me away. “Is this how you brush me

off?”

I replied timidly, “If I am smart, I wouldn’t have allowed Rebecca to remain by your

side.”

“Scarlett!” he roared.

“Yes!” I yelled. Why did he have to speak so loud? It wasn’t as if I was deaf.

“Ha!” he scoffed. “I’ve never seen an apology this indignant.”

After our intimacy, he pulled me into his arms and rasped out sexily, “Come here.”

I said nothing. I didn’t tell anyone about that incident and never saw my kidnapper again.

It felt like a dream to me.

He carried me out of the bathroom. I lay in his arms lazily after the vigorous session.

Before I fell asleep, I said, “Ashton, don’t be mad at me. Nick and I are innocent. I’m pregnant, and he’s younger than me. There’s no way we’d end up together.”

He rolled over and pulled me into his arms. “What about other men?” he inquired.

He was obviously picking on me. I pursed my lips and glared at him. “You don’t trust me!”

A smirk played on his lips. I could sense his satisfaction as he planted a light kiss on my forehead. “Sleep tight!”

I was already sleepy by now, so I soon fell asleep.

The next day, I woke up feeling refreshed.

After the tiring business trip, I finally got to sleep in.

“I read the headline. It spells trouble. What if John sees it?” Macy was terrified of John and so was 1.

My heart clenched anxiously at the mention of his name.

“I’ll deal with it. Don’t worry. Rest at home and don’t go anywhere for a few days.”

I didn’t know whether John would travel to J City. But before he did, I had to seek Ashton’s protection.

I ate a simple breakfast and left. Outside, I ran into Cameron. To be exact, she came here for me.

Not many people knew about this villa. Only those who were close to us knew we were living here.

Cameron was dressed in an elegant icy blue frock with a designer bag slung across her shoulder.

I hesitated for a few seconds before going out to welcome her warmly. “Ms. Anderson, I’m sorry. I didn’t know you’d be here.”

She smiled faintly and replied, “I didn’t inform you about my arrival. Ms. Stovall, please don’t blame yourself.”

The villa was separated into the rear house and main house. Ashton and I spent most of our time at the rear house, while the main house was where we’d serve our guests. The tea room and garden were in the main house, too.

I brought Cameron to the tea room. After asking Mrs. Eriksen to prepare some fruits and light snacks. I started boiling some water on the stove. “Ms. Anderson, are you here to talk to Ashton?”
