When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 811

Then, Ashton hung up.

Judging from his expression, I figured the bodyguard had lost Rebecca, so I suggested, “Calm down. Lavelian Village isn’t that big. She must’ve gone to buy something.”

Ashton nodded and looked at me. “Wait here for me. Just dig in if you’re hungry. I’ll go look for her, and I’ll be right back.”

I grabbed his arm and stopped him in his tracks. He looked at me, completely astounded. Seeing his reaction, I smiled faintly and offered, “I’ll go with you. Nora dragged me around these days, and I know all these places quite well.”

He pursed his lips and rejected, “Eat up while the food is still warm.”

“There’s no rush. I’ll just get them to warm up the food later. Let’s look for her first.” With that, I talked to the owner and exited the restaurant.

Lavelian Village was a small area, and only a few shops sold ice creams. After going through every ice cream shop, Rebecca was nowhere to be found.

We even asked the passers-by to get some information. Soon, the bodyguard came to us and lowered his head. “Mr. Fuller, I lost Ms. Larson on the way back to the restaurant.”

“Did you see anyone suspicious?” Ashton spoke calmly.

The bodyguard shook his head and replied, “I was following behind Ms. Larson and didn’t see anyone suspicious. However, it seemed like she was trying to shake me off.”

Ashton frowned and glanced at him before commanding, “Continue to look for her.”

After hearing what the bodyguard said, I knew what Rebecca was trying to do. Narrowing my eyes slightly, I smirked. “No need. Let’s go back to the restaurant. The dishes must have gotten cold.”

With that, I didn’t wait for him to reply and headed back to the restaurant. As expected, Rebecca had already returned to the restaurant and was sitting at our table.

When Rebecca saw me and Ashton entering the restaurant, a look of surprise was written all over her face. She looked at Ashton and asked, “Ash, where did you guys go? I didn’t see you guys when I came back. I thought you guys went back.”

Curling my lips, I gave a wintry smile before sitting back in my seat and asked the owner to serve the dishes.

“Why did you turn off your phone?” Displeased was shown on Ashton’s face when he frowned and questioned the woman.

Once again, she had the same naive look on her face and took her phone out of her bag. Blinking her eyes in confusion, she looked at Ashton and said, “My phone’s turned off? I didn’t know. What’s wrong?”

Ashton pursed his lips and replied indifferently, “Nothing.”

However, Ashton stopped me from getting up and asked, “What would you like to eat? Let’s go get it together.”

I squinted my eyes and raised my brow at them. “Together?”

He nodded. “Yeah, together. You and me, together.”

Rebecca’s expression immediately took a 360-degree turn as she got up suddenly. “Ash, I’m full, so I’ll head back to the hotel first.”

The man glanced at her with a calm expression and nodded. “Okay. Be careful on your way back, and don’t wander around.”

Rebecca initially thought Ashton would stop her from leaving, but to her disappointment, he didn’t.

Suppressing her anger, she took her bag and exited the restaurant, leaving Ashton and me at the table.

The man looked at me and smiled before placing the dishes I liked on my plate. “Come on. Finish up!”
