In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 700

I pressed my lips together and said, “Don’t be crazy. Ms. Zimmer is a very talented woman.”

“What the h*ll?” Nora burst out. “Scarlett, what’s gotten into you? What do you mean by that? Are you going to give your man up to her just because she’s a ‘very talented woman’?”

Ashton was still there, so I knew she was doing this on purpose. Thus, I decided to ignore her question.

She clucked her tongue at my silence and said, “Did you two have an argument or something?”

After a pause, she looked at Ashton and said without even blinking, “Did you cheat on Scarlett?”

Ashton’s gaze darkened, and he looked at me. I thought he would get angry, but he seemed to calm down instead and replied, “I don’t sh*t where I eat.”

Simply put, he wouldn’t lay an eye on another woman.

Nora chuckled and nudged me with her elbow. “You better hang on tight to this guy. There aren’t many like him in this day and age.”

I was starting to feel awkward when the waiter jogged toward us and said, “Is the lady in the bathroom a friend of yours? She tripped and fell. It’s rather serious, so you should take a look.”

“She tripped?” Nora immediately went to the bathroom.

I fell silent since it was now just me and Ashton at the table. After a while, I looked at him and said, “You should go check on her.”

He frowned and looked at me. “Are you sure about that?”

I was taken aback by the sudden question before nodding. “Yeah. She might be in trouble.”

He scoffed coldly before suddenly getting up and walking toward the bathroom.

I followed him and spotted Nora helping Rachel out of the bathroom. It really did look rather serious.

Nora saw us and said, “I think she may have twisted or fractured something. She’ll probably need to go to the hospital.”
