In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 1246

John nodded. “Uh-huh.’“

It took me a while to realize what was going on. Ashton would forgive me for risking my life provided I was safe, but now that something unknown had been injected into my body that might harm my life, he wouldn’t let it slide.

I stared at the phone helplessly.

After consoling John, now I had to console Ashton. I must be the most miserable person in the world right now.

I placed the phone next to my ear before speaking sincerely, “Mr. Fuller, your wife has realized her mistake and promised never to repeat her mistake ever again. Will you be kind enough to forgive her?”

Silence ensued. After all, Ashton could hold a grudge longer than John.

“What should I do to appease your anger? I can do anything you wish.” I went all out.

John pretended to cough lightly beside me. “Oh, this is X-rated!” he teased.

I glared at him to make him stop.

Finally, Ashton spoke, his voice hoarse. “Tomorrow, ask John to buy a collar and leash at the pet store tomorrow.”

“Mm? You want a pet? Is it a dog or cat?”

“It’s you.”

I stiffened in shock. A flush crept up my cheeks when I saw John gazing at me curiously. I turned around slightly and covered the phone before agreeing to Ashton’s request. “I’m not against spicing things up, but there are shops who sell those things specifically. Why should we involve a pet store?”

I could understand that men were fascinated by new stuff, but this was an intimate affair, so we shouldn’t be fooling around.

“What are you talking about?” Ashton returned. “You said anything, right? If it happens again, you shall wear the collar and stay by my side as an obedient pet. You won’t be able to escape.”

“Ah? Oh, I see.” The flush deepened in my cheeks as I was utterly embarrassed.
