When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1231

Bewildered, I asked, “Are you being held captive here, too?”

“Ha! How naive,” the woman mocked before telling the bodyguard. “Head in. The doctor is waiting for you.”

“We’ll leave her with you.” With that, the woman followed the bodyguard upstairs.

Once they left, we were left alone in the hall. The maid had already shut the door. It was much quiet without the howling wind.

“Come with me,” said Marcus. He walked up another flight of stairs.

Curious, I went after him obediently.

There were many rooms on the second floor. Marcus led me down the hallway and came to a stop when we reached the end. He opened the door on the right and stepped aside. “This is your room. Have a good rest tonight.”

I stepped in and studied the surroundings. There were candles lighting up the huge room. I immediately spotted a laptop beside the bed which seemed out of place in this castle.

Hearing the footsteps behind me, I turned and called out, “Wait a minute!”

Marcus was taller and bigger than me. Even his shadow swallowed mine whole, so my action seemed ridiculous.

“Don’t you have anything to say?” I looked up and queried.

He towered above me icily. “What do you want me to say?”

His cool reaction pissed me off. He knew what I meant, but pretended to be clueless. I didn’t know why he was acting this way. Right now, I needed to find out where my son was.

I sighed and tried to stay calm. “Why are you so familiar with the others? Where is my son, Toby and Camelia? You don’t seem anxious at all.”

Marcus furrowed his brows and gestured at the laptop in my room. “You can see your son’s current condition there. If you stay here obediently, you’ll get to see him every day.”

I looked at him before turning to glance at the laptop. It was clear that Marcus knew everything about my son.

A hint of frustration crept into my heart.
