In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 1083

“How are you so certain that it’s because of health reasons?” I paused intentionally, hoping to stir anger in her. “Have you thought about why he refuses to seek medical attention, despite not being able to get it up every single time? Hmm? Have you considered that some people only react to those they have feelings for, so maybe he doesn’t love you at all? Maybe that’s why he doesn’t react sexually to you.”

At this, her eyes reddened hideously beyond recognition. She stared wide-eyed at me whilst speaking through jagged breaths, “You have no right, Scarlett! I don’t care for your lies because I know he loves me.”

Seeing her deceive herself, I couldn’t help but snicker. My shoulders raised uncontrollably as I held back a burst of roaring laughter. At this rate, she might crack.

Inhaling deeply, I composed myself before continuing, “Then there’s nothing left to say between us since you’re so sure. I’ll see you later tonight; If it turns out that he doesn’t love you, then I hope you reflect on him as a person, as well as on yourself. Don’t be swayed into living a life that someone else dictates for you.”

There was nothing more I could say, so I dropped the subject and turned the other way.

Silence engulfed us for the longest second. Eventually, she got the hint that it was pointless to beg me and gave up altogether. Before she left, she looked me in the eyes and swore that Armond loved her, as if she were reminding not only me but herself.

I said nothing up until the moment she left.

Once she did, it was Holden’s turn to glance at me with an unreadable expression. He questioned, “Call me curious, but how does an outsider like you know whether Armond is intimate with Nora? And how would you know that he can’t get it up for her? Unless… you’ve experienced it yourself?”

My lips curled into my teeth as I rolled my eyes at him. “Nonsense! Honestly, I’m starting to wonder if your mind is filled with junk. These were things that Nora and I talked about back then between us girls. What else was I supposed to say to convince her?”

Then he threw his head back understandingly before mumbling to himself, “Does that mean my ex-girlfriends talked about me behind my back? That’s crazy! I wonder what they said about me… Nah, I’m pretty sure they talked about how good I am in bed.”

This guy…

Ugh… How brazen of him!

I didn’t want to waste my breath on responding to that shameless man. Instead, I pulled out my phone to call Ashton but quickly realized that there was no signal. Frowning, my gaze snapped over to Holden.

“Why are you staring at me?” he raised a brow and challenged.

I raised my phone. “There’s no signal here?”
