When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1609

 

Of course! No one could possibly compare to his little princess!

As I knew Ashton would never agree otherwise, I simply ignored him and turned around to carry on walking.

I had barely taken a step forward when Ashton yanked me back toward him to check me for injuries a second time.

After taking a moment to confirm that I could stand just fine, he held one of my hands and interlocked our fingers as he said, “I just told you to hold my hand tightly when in crowded places, remember?”

I knew he was simply trying to find an excuse to hold my hand, but I didn’t have any evidence to support my argument. As such, I had no choice but to walk hand in hand with him.

However, we didn’t get very far before I felt something tugging at my right sleeve.

 

I turned around and noticed the little girl from before staring at me with puppy-dog eyes.

“What is it, kiddo?” I asked.

 

“Rock candy,” she replied. Although she didn’t say anything about wanting more, it was obvious from the sight of her licking her lips.

Did she finish it already? But it hasn’t even been two minutes! ”Didn’t I give you one just now? Did you drop it or something?” I exclaimed in shock.

She shook her head and pointed at the street behind her as she replied, “It was my sister that you gave it to.”

I shifted my gaze toward the direction she was pointing at and saw another girl who looked just like her. She was standing next to a food vendor and waving a stick of rock candy happily. It was an adorable sight to behold, but I felt a spine-chilling sensation spreading throughout my body instead. I then subconsciously handed the little girl my rock candy and only snapped out of it after she left.

Ashton and I continued strolling through the night market, but I couldn’t seem to concentrate as my mind was all over the place.

It is indeed difficult to tell two completely identical people apart. What if I had an identical twin? Would the people around me be able to tell us apart?
