In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 1713

Chapter 1713 Time To Leave

He raised his hand to point at the screen behind him. “Look carefully. Besides his handsome face, Ashton is just like me. Can you still claim to love him?”

Do I need a reason to love someone? After all, love is a feeling that needs no reasoning.

Alas, I knew Nathaniel wouldn’t get it.

Suddenly, I realized Nathaniel’s intention. It wasn’t enough for him to drag Ashton into hell, for he also wanted me to fall out of love with Ashton and make him lonely and desolate before ending up as a monster like him.

I wouldn’t let him have his way. “So? Can’t I love him for his looks?”

When Nathaniel’s smile finally slipped a notch, I went all out in provoking him. “Why? Are you going to change your face to Ashton’s and replace him to live with us? Oh, let me see. You claimed to be God, but in fact, you can’t even bring yourself to look at your own face. Am I right?”

Nathaniel’s expression darkened as an ominous black thundercloud of temper settled over him. “Do you think you’re smart?”

“Did I say something wrong?” I persisted. “You can see through everyone, so I’m sure you know greed drives us to achieve more. You hate the fact that Ashton is being loved by someone, and living a better life. In fact, you think you are his savior and wanted to rid him of his feelings. Unfortunately, love will never die. The sad truth is you’re driven by jealousy. You are jealous that Ashton has everything that you’ll never have!”

Crash!

Nathaniel flung the wineglass before him out forcefully, and it landed on the ground with a crash. The red liquid flowed out like an exploded atom among the broken pieces of glass, red and dangerous, just like his expression.

I stuck my chin up but said nothing else. Going to the extreme might backfire on me, so I couldn’t afford to provoke him any further.

The silence went on for thirty seconds, but Nathaniel refused to utter a word.
