In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 254

“You haven’t gotten off work yet?” His voice sounded calm and emotionless.

Not deliberating over the question, I merely grunted a response. I glanced at the clock casually and saw that it was already 6 p.m., which marked the end of the workday.

“I have to work overtime today. What’s up?” As I had to go to J City tomorrow, I needed to confirm that everything was in order.

After tidying the files on my desk, I noted down some things that I needed to bring tomorrow. Since the phone was completely silent, I thought that he had already hung up.

When I tapped the screen, it showed that the call was still continuing. Hence, I could not help but say, “I might be quite late…”

Before I could finish my sentence, I saw a tall man standing at the entrance. Stunned, I asked, “Didn’t the employees of White Corporation stop you?”

He raised his eyebrows and hung up the call. Walking towards my desk, he said, “Work has already ended, so I’m allowed to pick you up.”

He’s allowed to? I’m not so sure about that.

He glanced at the work I was handling at that moment. “You should eat first before continuing with it.”

As I did not have much work left, I initially planned to finish them first before returning home. However, it seemed unnecessary now.

I kept my belongings and stood up. “I’ll continue working at home. Let’s go!”

There were a lot of people in the office, so it was inevitable for some to recognize Ashton. It was obvious what they were thinking about.

As expected, when Ashton and I left the office, there were a lot of people in the stairway glancing at him and muttering softly under their breaths.

“Isn’t he the president of Fuller Corporation? I’ve seen him on the headlines a few months ago. It was when he announced that the headquarters of Fuller Corporation would be moving to K City for future development.”

“Yeah, I saw it too. He’s much hotter in person than on television!”

“He’s such a mysterious and charming man. But why is he with Ms. Stovall?”

“I heard that he’s here to pick her up!”

“Wasn’t Ashton engaged with Rebecca two months ago? Why is he together with Ms. Stovall now?”

“Who knows? We can never know what kind of lifestyles the wealthy have. Furthermore, only the Moore family is still harping on Ashton’s engagement with Ms. Larson. He has never responded to it at all. I think that the woman from the Moore family likes Mr. Fuller, but he doesn’t reciprocate her feelings.”

As we exited the White Corporation, Ashton and I overheard a lot of gossips.

It was finally silent again when we got into the car.

Ashton started the engine. Then, he glanced at me and instructed, “Buckle your seatbelt!”

As he drove, I took out my phone and sent a message to Marcus, asking him when the flight tomorrow was.
