In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 209

Macy was unsure if Jared fell for her. Thus, she was reluctant to tell him about the baby as she did not want him to compromise because of it.

Truth be told, Jared himself was probably still uncertain about what feelings he had for Macy.

Ashton’s car was approaching, and we bade each other goodbye. “I’ll talk to you another day. I have to go now!”

Jared’s voice sounded out behind me after I barely took a few steps, “Get a trustworthy person to be by your side when you deliver the baby!”

I froze for a moment but found it strange. “All right!” Well, I don’t have a mother-in-law. Unless I suffer from delivery complications, do I have to hesitate in choosing whether to save the mother or the baby?

After I got into the car, I moved clumsily and leaned into the seat, feeling tired. “When can the job at hand be settled?”

Macy was going to deliver her baby in two months. I was worried about her as she was on her own, and the healthcare over there was limited.

Ashton started the car engine and glanced at me. “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing! Let’s visit Macy when everyone is free. I haven’t seen her for quite some time.”

He agreed and sighed, touching my belly, “You must have suffered these few months.”

I remained silent and felt flustered. It would be Rebecca’s birthday two days later.

I looked at Ashton and asked, “Are you going to celebrate Rebecca’s birthday?”

Knowing Rebecca, she would definitely invite them for a party.

Much to my surprise, he shook his head and replied, “The baby is due soon. I shouldn’t go out.”

I could not help but laugh. “The exact date of delivery is not confirmed yet. Besides, there is a doctor and maids at home. What are you afraid of?”

He raised his eyebrows and looked at me. “They are not your hubby!”

I burst out laughing and stopped talking.

Looking at the scenery along the road, Cameron’s words came to my mind and made me uneasy. Though those days seemed to be calm, I felt as if threats were hiding in the dark, crouching and waiting for the time to make their death strike.

Cameron would do whatever it took to make the engagement between Ashton and Rebecca happen.

Though Rebecca was arrogant, she dared not cross the line. But Cameron was different. She was a self-made tycoon and was definitely a worrisome foe.

Ashton noticed my less than favorable condition, but he dismissed his worries, thinking that I was just tired. Thus, the moment we arrived at the villa, Ashton carried me to the bedroom right away.
