In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 1169

Ashton suddenly kicked me under the table and raised his eyebrows at me, indicating for me to say something.

I looked at him and then at Jackson. After a deep breath, I decided to blurt it out.

“Jackson.” I looked at him seriously. “Why didn’t you tell me before leaving for M Country? Why didn’t you invite me to your wedding? W-why did you block me on WhatsApp?”

As I spoke, I heard my voice beginning to crack. Disappointment and confusion welled up in my heart and pushed my tears out of my eyes.

Jackson was no different from Macy to me. Therefore, I felt like a child who had been abandoned by her parents—lost, confused and just wanted to know what I had done wrong.

As he heard that, Jackson’s hand froze and he sat in silence for a few seconds before going back to picking up dishes nonchalantly. “There’s no reason. It’s useless.”

That made me both angry and even more curious. “What do you mean by ‘useless’? Are you just going to throw away our friendship like that? Even Macy would never…”

“Don’t talk about Macy!” Jackson raised his voice. He tossed his chopsticks away and stared straight at me. “Scarlett, I didn’t want to say this, but you forced me to.”

He turned away as if he didn’t want to look at me anymore. “Macy died because of you. I can’t just forget that. If it wasn’t for our past friendship and Macy’s wishes, I would never have let Summer go with you. I already gave up so much, but it looks like you just couldn’t wait to have a kid of your own instead, huh?”
