In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 1774

Chapter 1774 Factory

Suppressing my nausea, I straightened up and side-eyed him. “Yes, that’s right. My health isn’t the only one getting lousier; my temper is too. You better pray to God that you won’t fall in love with me, or else I’m going to make your life a living hell.”

Hearing that, Nathaniel wiped away the smile on his face and uttered, “I don’t believe in gods.”

At that, he left me alone and walked further into the nameless island.

I gritted my teeth as I watched him go. Maybe the only god in his world is himself. Good. As long as I have my hand around his heart, it’ll be easy for me to destroy him. But I won’t stop there. That’s not even a tenth of what he had done to the Fuller family and us. When that day comes, I’ll make him pay ten times what he has done to us.

The sea breeze caressed my face and disrupted my train of thoughts. However, it lessened my symptoms of motion sickness. When I noticed that Nathaniel was only a few steps away from the car that had come to pick us up, I rushed over before I had any time to compose myself.

It seemed like Nathaniel was well-respected on the island. As we drove down the road, almost everyone was bowing and smiling at our car.

The smiles of the villagers were genuine, but the person beside me did not react as if he had seen it thousands of times.

It felt like I was on a tour with a god. The god—Nathaniel—needed to do nothing but silently enjoy the love that the villagers gave him. It was as if his presence alone was already a blessing to them.

Right then, my heart raced, and I looked away from the villagers. I did not know whether I should describe them as foolish or naive.

Soon, we arrived at the largest factory on the island. The workers there must have been pre-informed, for they were standing in a line outside, waiting to welcome us.
