When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1185

Louis might have his concerns because he was a senior of ours. However, John and I had been through all sorts of ups and downs in our lives; we had nothing to keep from one another.

When John heard me, he snapped out of his process of thought and looked at me with his bloodshot pair of eyes.

After a gruesome ten seconds of silence, he said, “I’m sure you’re aware of the things Fuller Corporation is going through. If Ashton insists, he’s only going to drag you and Summer down with him. As your brother, I can’t afford to expose you to such excessive risks.”

As an expert in wreaking havoc himself, John could sense danger way ahead of others. Since it was pretty much the same as I had speculated, I regained my composure and replied calmly, “I’m well aware of the things that are currently happening. As his wife, however, it’s part of my duty to be by his side when he needs me most. Do you really think I’ll leave him just because of the risk associated with his decision?”

Although I knew they merely wanted to keep me safe, I found their decisions ironic. Staring at John, I brought something up and asked, “Who’s the high-ranking official that’s behind the scenes?”

If that mysterious figure is able to intimidate Louis of all people, I need to give Ashton a heads-up!

When John heard me, he got worked up and jolted up from his seat in anger. Staring at me with his chest held high, he remarked sarcastically, “Has he considered your safety? What makes you think you have to take the risk with him? Do you really think such a capable man isn’t aware of the foe he’s going up against?”

His response took me by surprise, and I had a hard time figuring out the reason behind his wrath. John had never seemed afraid when he performed reckless things with Ashton before.

Overwhelmed by wrath, John banged the door shut after making his way out of the room. Prior to his departure, he warned me, “You have to stay here. I won’t allow you to return to him anymore!”

Bang! My heart skipped a beat as a result of the thunderous sound.

Soon, Louis and I were the only ones left behind. He heaved a long sigh and explained, “I’m sure you know him better than me. Please don’t blame him for reacting in this manner. Your brother is merely afraid something bad will happen to you.”
