When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 119

Chapter 119 

Realizing it was me by the door, he stiffened. “What’s the matter?”

“I’m here to visit you.” I put the takeaways I bought for him on his desk. “I know you haven’t eaten, so I brought you some food.”

Confused by my actions, he asked, “You don’t ever come without reason. What’s up?”

Rendered speechless for a second, I flashed him an awkward smile. “Do you remember the time I went to A City for a business trip?”

He nodded as he started digging into his food. Perhaps he had been in the office the entire day, for I could see that he seemed weary.

I continued, “When I asked you to pick Macy up, did you leave after you sent her to the hotel?”

I was not good with words. An outstanding example of it would be this moment. I had wanted to ask him about it in a subtle manner, but I ended up being straightforward.

All his motions halted, and he looked at me incredulously. “You’re not good at taking the long route. Speak your mind.”

I covered my face for a brief moment, feeling foolish.

“Did you do it with Macy that night?” Right after the words left my mouth, I had the urge to hit my head on the desk. What the f*ck did I just say?

He looked at me and lifted a brow. “Do what?”

It was immensely awkward and inappropriate to discuss this with a man.

Unfortunately, I was the one who started the topic; I could not stop it right now.

“Did you guys have sex?” I rephrased my question before waiting for his reply with a burning face.

He covered his takeaway and leaned back. Looking at me without any expressions in his eyes, he inquired, “Why don’t you tell me why you’re asking this?”

I was two seconds away from cursing at him.

However, I could not tell him about Macy’s pregnancy. I did not know whether his knowledge would be a good thing or a bad thing for her. Instead, I said, “I think she’s ill.”

He had been sipping on a glass of water at that moment, and he spat out his mouthful of water upon hearing my answer.

I took a piece of tissue and handed it to him. After dabbing the puddle of water on his desk, he questioned, “Are you serious?”

“Yes.” I felt a little guilty, but the words were already out of my mouth. All I could do was to steel

myself and repeated, “So did you two…”

Jared raised both brows before he responded, “You should rest more since you’re already lour months pregnant. Everything you say and do will affect the development of the baby”

I was definitely ballled by his reply

Did he just change the topic

With that said, the man stood up and went back to his work. Ile gave me no more replies about what had happened that night
