When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1308

Nick was evidently suffering, but as a fellow woman, I was on Rose’s side in that matter. I knew how disappointed she must be when she found out the truth.

Whenever she talked about her husband, I could see true love and happiness in her eyes. This woman had unquestionably given her heart and soul to their relationship.

However, when she finally achieved her dream to get married and have children, Nick walked out of her life and tore their marriage apart.

“You shouldn’t do this, at least not now.” I knew it would be a bitter disappointment to Rose if she was left alone when she needed all the support and care, especially after their child was born.

For a moment, I was reminded of Camelia. She was a bright and confident lady before Marcus broke her.

Life lessons taught us that it was important to be open and honest in all aspects of life, including marriage. Yet honesty could sometimes be cruel when one had hopes and expectations.

Nick took a deep breath. “Do you know why Jackson appeared out of nowhere and suddenly he got married?” he asked. The frustration and coldness were in his voice.

I frowned, stupefied by his sudden change of subject.

Before I could respond, he tilted his head downwards and complained, “If Lydia hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t have known the truth. It turned out that mom has sent someone to spy on me after she knew of our relationship. And before she blew up at me, she confronted him without my knowledge! Well, I don’t know what they talked about, but I’m pretty sure that Jackson disappeared after that day. Then soon after, he went to M Country and ended up being the scapegoat of his own brother!

“Look at him now. He is laying unconscious in bed, and his parents didn’t even come and visit him. Do you know what they told me over the phone? They said he disgusted them and that he is not their son! They said he deserved to suffer because he chose to leave and protect me. You see, I am the only one he could turn to. I must stay beside him. And I’ve promised myself that I don’t want to be a gutless coward anymore.”

I could see his gaze wandered over the floor as he spoke. Then he stared ahead absently as if his soul leaving his empty shell of a body.
