In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 1108

While it was true that everyone had the right to pursue the things they wanted, if the direction was wrong, they should put a stop to it in order to cut the losses.

I was quite worried that Rebecca’s story would repeat itself. Apart from her personality, another reason she was reluctant to let Ashton go was that she had invested so much time, energy, and emotions in him. When things did not go her way, it was only natural for her to be disgruntled and sullen. In the end, her mind went awry.

Stella was an intelligent person who could help Ashton at work. The only problem was that her heart was not in the right place. I did not want to make a scene out of it, so I could only hope that she could see the reality when Joseph was back.

Now that I was rid of my worries, I sat down next to Ashton and accompanied him while he ate.

He stopped eating and looked at me. “It’s getting late. Go home.”

With that, he picked up his jacket and dragged me outside.

I thought it was strange and asked him as we walked, “What about your work?”

“I don’t care.” He looked very anxious while he led me outside. When we walked past Stella, she stood up to greet us, but he picked up his pace as if he did not hear her at all.

In the elevator, he looked rather agitated as his dark eyes were fixated on the information screen, but I couldn’t read his mind at all.

After buckling my seatbelt, I could not help but ask him, “Did something happen?”

“Mmhmm,” he replied. He looked serious and earnest as he placed his hands on the steering wheel. “Something trivial but very troublesome.”

I frowned and looked at him quizzically. How could a trivial matter be troublesome?

However, he did not say anything else, stepping onto the accelerator, and in less than half an hour, we arrived home.
