In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 618

At this moment, I was a little terrified by his ferocious face. Since when did he become so extreme?

Knowing that I couldn’t bear a child anymore, he intended to drive Camelia away once she gave birth to a baby. After that, he could possess both his lover and the child by trapping me by his side.

Therefore, I couldn’t help but feel that he was unimaginably horrible. “Marcus, don’t you think you’re too selfish to do that? Camelia loves you more than you think, yet you are willing to hurt her deeply. You will never meet someone who loves you as much as her.”

Surprisingly, he snickered, “I don’t care!”

Holding in my emotions, I stood up and rebutted, “Well, we’re even now. You obliterated my hope to have a baby in the past, and now Ashton destroyed your career. Anyway, I’ll still repay you for saving my life.”

As I was leaving, he suddenly grabbed my arm and requested, “Don’t rush. Please sit here and keep me company for a little longer.”

I was actually reluctant to do it.

However, he forcefully pulled me back to my seat and continued, “I understand that you loathe me and aren’t willing to see me. However, I’m too lonely. During every new year’s eve, everyone in the company would go home to reunite with their family. However, I would be standing on the top floor and overlooking the glowing city alone. This was how I spent my new year every year. It wasn’t my habit to reminisce, yet I always dreamed about my parents. They would prepare a lot of dishes during every new year’s eve and asked me to come home.”

He paused a moment and continued, “But when I woke up, I was still all alone in my room. So, I thought I would feel better by visiting you. There was a time when I drove to your well-lit villa. I could hear you guys chatting and laughing from outside. When I wished to bring you out, Ashton irritated me because he hugged you smilingly. I mean, the happiness in your house was something that I never had before.”

I wasn’t sure how to reply to him. After falling silent for a while, I finally replied, “It’s getting late now. I should get going.”

He didn’t stop me but added before I left, “Scarlett, have you thought about what would happen next? I mean, you can’t be pregnant, and Summer isn’t his biological daughter. No matter how much Ashton loves you, he still has to do as the Fullers wish when necessary. Besides, what did George, whom you respected, hope for before he passed away? Since you’re still young, do you think Sally will let you two continue being a couple once she knows the truth? Scarlett, life is not a drama script, and the people won’t be as open-minded as you imagine.”

My lips quirked as I glanced at him and replied, “Marcus, you’re really good at rubbing salt into my dear wound. You’re aware of how words can bring about pain to others. Nevertheless, those are merely your words, which do not reflect the truth. For instance, if a man’s girlfriend carries a child, he will marry her instead of driving her away. He wouldn’t ask another woman, whom he doesn’t love, to bear him a child. As you said, life is not a drama script. In that case, why are you not willing to go back to your life and live it to the fullest?”

After all, some people never loved each other from the moment they met until they separated.
