In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 273

Sobbing, she declared, “I was too stubborn and unreasonable. Ash, I’ll change my bad habits. I’ll be good!”

Ashton frowned. After all, he had been taking care of her for years. It wouldn’t be easy for him to forget her.

He glanced at me without a word, and I immediately knew what he was about to do.

After a pause, I told him, “You can stay with her. I’ll go to the doctor myself.”

He pursed his lips. “I’ll join you later?”

“No. She needs you more than I do.” He was obviously worried about her. If he leaves with me, he’ll be worried the whole time. Why would I humiliate myself?

Tears rolled down Rebecca’s face. “Scarlett, are you still mad at me? I apologize on behalf of my mom. I would’ve stopped her if I had an inkling of her intention.”

With that, she fell to her knees with a loud thud while sobbing profusely.

Everyone in the hallway, including the patients in their wards, craned their necks to see what was going on.

Cameron, who was silent for the entire time, immediately tried to help her up. As her daughter refused to budge, she sank to her knees, too. “Scarlett, it was all my doing. Rebecca doesn’t know I tried to abduct you. You made Rebecca lose her baby the same way. Do you feel better now?”

I furrowed my frows.. Interesting.

“Young lady, everyone makes mistakes. You should forgive them.”

“Yes! Besides, she’s still ill. Don’t make things difficult for them.”

The crowd’s voice grew louder, criticizing me for being unreasonable.

I had run out of ideas. “Ladies, if you want me to forgive you, pay your respects to my child, whom you choked to death. Rebecca, your miscarriage has nothing to do with me. Did I choke or suffocate your child to death? You were the one who was afraid Sally might run a DNA test after you gave birth. If the results prove the child isn’t Ashton’s, he’ll leave you for sure. You dared not give birth to your child and blamed its death on me!

“If I am that capable, I would’ve saved my child when Ms. Anderson kidnapped me and murdered my child. You did something wrong. I’m not obliged to forgive you every time you beg for forgiveness shamelessly.”

With that, I stepped back and entered the elevator.
