In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 397

Unexpectedly, Ashton’s voice rang out again. “Don’t forget to miss me.”

Suddenly, a warm sensation enveloped my heart.

“Okay,” I couldn’t help but reply with a gentle tone.

After ending the call, I still couldn’t sleep. Hence, I decided to head for the study. As usual, I spent the whole night awake. But having slept in the day, it wasn’t as bad this time.

Mrs. Eriksen was very attentive in her care. Early in the morning, she had already arrived and made breakfast.

When she saw me come down changed with my hair bundled up, she was caught by surprise. “Are you going out?”

I nodded. “I’m meeting someone shortly.”

“Do you need me to come with you?” she asked in concern. “The dark circles around your eyes seemed to have worsened. Did you stay up the whole night after you awoke?”

I grunted in acknowledgment and left after having breakfast.

Initially, I didn’t plan to go out. Then, I received a message from Emery telling me that she was in town. She wanted me to show her around since we were friends.

As she had blatantly spelled it out, there was no reason for me to refuse. Therefore, I agreed to her request.

I went to the garage to look for a lower-profile car to drive. Unfortunately, they were all sent for maintenance. All that was left were the flashy ones that had just returned from service.

After some thought, I decided to drive Ashton’s Maybach. To me, it was among the most ordinary-looking car in the lot.

As I wasn’t familiar with driving it, I ended up traveling at a snail’s pace on the road.

When I reached our agreed meeting point, I saw that she had already arrived.

She waved at me when she saw me.

Emery was truly the epitome of a lady from a rich family. On top of her illustrious family background, her features and figure were equally eye-catching.

She was older than me by a year or two and was still single. Furthermore, she was also a career woman—someone who was both savvy and decisive in her actions.

The moment I sat down, she called for the waiter without any hesitation and asked me, “What would you like to have?”

As we were in a restaurant that was new to me, I shrugged my shoulders and replied, “I haven’t tried anything here before. Why don’t you decide?”

Raising her eyebrow, she ordered without delay, “Butter-grilled salmon, seafood chowder, and seared lobster.” She pursed her lips for a brief moment. “That’s all for now. Thanks!”
