When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1139

“Come lie down and sleep for a while. There’s still time before we need to get to the hospital,” I said as I tugged on his shirt. I was always worried that his body couldn’t handle the work stress.

“It’s fine. I slept for two hours in the office earlier. That’s enough. I came home to take a shower.”

“Go ahead then. Heat the water a little. It can help you destress.”

Ashton patted my head worriedly before getting up to go into the shower.

I didn’t feel sleepy anymore but I wasn’t able to ease the anxiety as I leaned against the bedhead.

What is the world really like? Seeking progress was clearly what mankind had always advocated but no one had ever told me that while going forward in life, it would be walking on thin ice every day.

I suddenly remembered that when Ashton took over Fuller Corporation, he was almost always never home. Except for Rebecca’s troubles, it seemed as though he couldn’t relax for even a moment.

Soon, he came out of the bathroom in a bathrobe. He took me in his arms and leaned against the bed as he rested his eyes for a moment.

“Did Sean come in the afternoon?” he asked.

I had never thought of hiding it from him, so I nodded and said, “Yes. He wanted to bring me to M Country.”

“He can dream on then,” Ashton sneered sinisterly. “GW is no longer the partner I’m considering collaborating with.”

He was an outstanding man so he wasn’t exaggerating at all. As long as he had enough time, the Fuller Corporation would definitely be at the same level as GW. However, I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to support him without caring about everything else like how I had been in the past. I closed my eyes as I leaned against him and pretended to fall asleep.
