In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 512

Ashton knew me better than I do.

We embraced each other silently as time ticked by.

Gradually, I drifted to sleep. Halfway through the night, I sensed him taking my hand and muttering, “Scarlett, I’m sorry!”

His voice was low and blurry, and I soon dozed off.

The next morning, John showed up bearing gifts.

Most of them were for Summer.

My face was unnaturally pale, so he ignored Ashton and suggested, “Why don’t you move to the Stovall residence?”

The Stovall residence was located in the city center and guarded heavily by the military. If the reporters barged in, they would be punished severely.

I shook my head. Summer didn’t go to school today. She was pleased with his gifts and kept fondling the toys adoringly.

Recalling Hannah’s situation, I furrowed my brows. “Have you visited Hannah?”

Stunned, he responded, “Mm.”

I knew he was brushing me off. Feeling an incoming headache, I demanded, “John, if you don’t love her, you could’ve broken up with her ages ago. Why did you force her to stay by your side and ignore her? Have you ever considered your child’s future?”

Frowning, he massaged his temples and exhaled in frustration. “Scarlett, stay out of this, will you? Hannah gave birth to my child, so I won’t mistreat her.”

I fell silent. After a long pause, I inquired, “Did you fall for Yvonne Wilde?”

His frown deepened. “It’s nothing. Don’t overthink things.”

“Mommy, I saw Granny when Uncle John picked me up. She said she’ll visit you soon,” announced Summer suddenly.
