In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 29

Before I could respond, the manager from earlier returned with over a dozen male models, stunning me into silence.

“Pick anyone you like. They have every kind of guy imaginable. Don’t you like those domineering Mr. CEO types? Take a look at that man in the suit. He looks just as good as Ashton, doesn’t he?” Macy remarked while choosing a youthful, puppy-like male model.

The model seemed awfully experienced. He walked over to Macy and carefully poured her a glass of wine before placing her hand in his. Macy showed no signs of refuting; she merely leaned into his arms.

My jaw dropped. Did this woman come here often?

No wonder she could never get a boyfriend…

“What are you staring at us for? Hurry up and choose your guy!” Macy urged.

Not knowing what to do at all, I smiled. “I… I’m good.”

Rolling her eyes at me, Macy pointed to the man in the suit. “You stay here and keep her company, then.”

After the other male models left, the man in the suit sat down next to me. I felt especially uncomfortable. Meanwhile, Macy and her guy prepared to leave and have more fun among themselves.

With just the two of us left here, I turned to the man in the suit and said awkwardly, “Uhh… I’m not—”

“You don’t have to explain, Miss. I understand,” the man responded with a grin. “Everyone’s like this the first time. You’ll get used to it.”

I…

I had no words.

On the other hand, the man readily tried to strike up a conversation. “What do you usually enjoy doing, Miss?”

I smiled. “I like reading.”

“Well, it’s no wonder you give off such a classy vibe.”

Not knowing what to say, I got up. “I have to use the bathroom.”

I never found the bathroom despite wandering around the club for a long time. Instead, I bumped into a few familiar faces.

Rebecca and Joe.

The two walked side by side, and we met while walking on the same path from opposite sides. I couldn’t avoid them even if I wanted to.

Rebecca’s smile instantly vanished as she saw me, and she turned to Joe. “What is she doing here?”

Joe was surprised too. He shook his head lightly. “Ashton told her to go home while we were at Herb Garden. He didn’t let her come with us.”
