In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 1381

Within ten minutes, the hashtag #FulleReconciliation had been propelled to Facebook’s most widely searched and used term.

Ashton seemed in no mood to talk once he got into the car. Wary of disturbing him, I continued scrolling through Facebook.

The photo that was the most widely-circulated piece of information regarding this trending topic was my intimate photo with Ashton at the airport.

The internet was ablaze with theories and frenzied discussions.

Tsk tsk! Look at them! That’s what I call true love!

The president’s a real man indeed! He didn’t abandon the woman who gave birth to his child after all.

Scarlett’s gorgeous! She and Ashton really look like a match made in heaven.

I definitely ship this couple! None of those messy relationships for me!

Isn’t this great? I’m glad the twins won’t be separated. I was so worried that if they divorced, they’d end up splitting the twins between them!

I was rather thankful that the bulk of the comments were positive. A handful of cynical netizens questioned the validity of our relationship, citing the ambiguous closeness between Ashton and Thora. However, these naysayers’ voices were quickly drowned out by the flood of other netizens eager to express their delight and support.

As I read on, a smile hovered on my lips. The comments, no matter their nature, didn’t affect me much. I found myself immensely moved, however, by the genuine outpouring of well-wishes from people Ashton and I have never even met.

Ashton sensed my body weakening in gratitude. Perhaps mistaking it for unhappiness, he reached out a warm hand and pressed mine firmly into his palm.

I turned to look at him in surprise, but he had already reclined against his seat, his eyes shut.

Perhaps Ashton merely wanted to hold me. I thought to myself, and another wave of pleasure washed over me.

It had been a while since Ashton had managed to get any rest. I briefly considered waking him up, then thought otherwise.
