In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 251

At first, I did not understand what he wanted, but as soon as he pointed at his cheek, I knew he was asking for a kiss.

“We’re in public, for goodness sake!” It was extremely inappropriate to display affection in front of so many people!

A corner of his mouth quirked up. “We’re married, so it’s normal for a wife to give her husband a goodbye kiss.”

Now was not the right time or place to argue with him on this topic.

Instead of starting a fight with him, I leaned forward and gave him a kiss on his cheek. All of sudden, he winded down the window and kissed me on my lips. “Oh yes. Sweet!”

I got out of the car and tried to control my anger.

As I was walking toward the entrance, I bumped into Marcus.

He had been standing outside the entrance. I bet he must have seen what Ashton did to me in the car, especially after Ashton winded down the window for the whole world to see.

His expression changed, and I could tell he was shooting daggers at Ashton. In spite of that, I went up and greeted him as if nothing ever happened, “Good morning!”

He bit lips and gradually turned his attention to me. “Hey.”

Once we got into the elevator, he gave me a document. “Take a look at some information about OrbitTech. Our chances are slim as both John and Ashton have their eyes on this company too.”

I nodded and took over the document. “What are our chances if they decide to give up on OrbitTech?”

He paused for a moment and frowned, “Have you talked to them?”

I responded with a nod. Once we stepped out of the elevator, I said, “One of them is my brother, and the other person is my husband. I guess luck is on my side.”

“If only things are as simple as you thought.” Marcus let out a cold snort.

We did not dwell on this topic after that. I went to my office and studied the document he gave me.

At noon, Sally came to my office. “We need to talk.”

“About?” I gave her a puzzled look.

Clad in a black dress suit, she looked exceptionally elegant. She pressed her lips for a bit and said, “You’ll know.”

I nodded, put aside the document, and left the office with her.
