When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1078

As expected, he soon said in a low voice, “Ashton must be progressing well in A City.”

His abrupt topic made me sat transfixed for a moment. Then, I frowned. “You can be straightforward with me, Mr. Murphy.”

He snorted, “You know what I want. Scarlett, honestly, I like you a lot. My mother asked me about you a while back, talking about how your stomach will be bigger soon. She even asked me when I’ll be preparing for the wedding and when I’ll marry you. To be frank with you, if you’re meeker and more obedient, I’ll be more than willing to let you keep the baby. However, you’re too cheeky; you registered that girl, and you even adopted her. What you’ve done upsets me. Once I’m upset, I’m prone to do bad things. So, I’m sorry, I could not stop myself from getting rid of that baby in you. You won’t hate me for this, will you?”

For a moment, his nonchalant tone made a murderous urge sprout in my mind. At that second, I wanted to strangle him to death; in seconds, I had already murdered him in a hundred ways in my mind.

However, I did nothing but look at him, waiting for him to utter all those words I despised. However, he did not continue. “You don’t need to record what I’ve said. These things are useless to you. Scarlett, for me to be in my position, I can’t be a fool, so stop those pointless things you’re doing, okay?”

My heart skipped a beat as I tensed. In the next second, I schooled my features to look calm. “What are you talking about? I don’t understand what you’re trying to tell me. I’m not doing anything pointless for those disgusting acts of yours. I know karma will come for you soon.”

He raised a brow at my reply before rising to his feet. Walking to my side, he leaned his face closer to mine as he smiled menacingly.
