When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1567

 

Although I made it up that Joseph’s ears would flinch, his hesitance had betrayed him entirely.

Inwardly, I knew that Joseph was loyal to Ashton and refused to reveal anything to me because Ashton warned him against it. Well, both the master and the subordinate are stubborn. I don’t think Joseph will say anything even if I torture him.

Besides, since we had let go of the past, I thought I could persuade Ashton to open his heart to me.

“Fine, fine. I’ll let you go this time. Get in.”

After Joseph left, I returned to my room and sat on the couch for a while.

When Ashton came out of the bathroom, I looked up at him and saw that he only covered the lower part of his body with a towel. I reckoned he would then put on some clothes to cover his body.

However, when Ashton saw that I stared at him, he narrowed his eyes and grinned with naughty intentions. “I have reasons to believe that you’re hinting something at me.”

As his wife, I certainly knew what was on his mind when he glanced at me that way.

 

Just as expected, Ashton walked toward the wardrobe once he finished.

“You wish!” I immediately dismissed his naughty thought.

At that moment, it came to my mind that I had never seen Ashton change his clothes for a long time. Apart from the fact that he always came home late, we rarely spent time with each other in these years. Perhaps that was also why I only noticed his gunshot scar earlier on.

With that, I stood up and followed him to the wardrobe. Then, I leaned against the door frame and scanned him without embarrassment.

Meanwhile, Ashton saw that I came closer when he put on his pants.

When we were young, it was difficult for us to look into each other’s eyes. As we grew older, we got used to it and felt comfortable about it. Pursing my lips, I didn’t show any emotions. At that moment, all I cared about was the scar on Ashton’s left knee.
