When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1555

He sneaked a peek at Ashton. Catching Ashton’s serious expression, he skittishly snapped his gaze back down.

“You and your daddy were both wrong.” I shook my head and pursed my lips. “Your daddy was wrong for being too stubborn and unwilling to accept another family member’s opinion, while you were wrong because you disrespected him. You know, your daddy and I have tried long and hard to bring you and Audrey into this world. To protect every one of us, he has suffered a lot. He’s quick-tempered, but he’s a man who shoulders his responsibility. Don’t you think a man like that is worthy of respect?”

Gregory nodded his head seriously. “Yes, he is.”

Seeing that he understood the gist of it, I continued to guide him patiently, “Then is it right for you to compare your daddy to a fascist in the car today?”

“No.” Gregory shook his head, sincerity in his eyes.

I let out a breath, then chuckled. “So what should you do next?”

Gregory pondered for a moment. He looked up at Ashton and pouted. “I’m sorry, Daddy. I shouldn’t have called you a fascist. I was wrong. Can you forgive me?”

He caught on quickly. As expected, it’s easier to communicate with a precocious child.

I stood up, sighing in relief.

With a hard look on his face, Ashton casually grunted an acknowledgment, showing that he accepted Gregory’s apology.

However, he was not going to let him off so easily.

Perhaps Ashton had guessed my intention as he turned to leave.

I reached for his arm with a playful smile. “Mr. Fuller, shouldn’t you be an example for your child?”

I was winking at him madly. There was no way he could have missed my hints.

He frowned at me, then locked his gaze with mine briefly and finally gave in.

Schooling his expression, he bowed his head and apologized in a low voice, “I was also in the wrong. Gregory, forgive me, will you?”
