Nathaniel furrowed his brows. A disgusted look flashed across his eyes, probably because he did not expect me to act like a shrew.
However, he regained his composure quickly. The emotionless smile on his face sent goosebumps all over my body.
“Scarlett, why are you doing this? Moreover, I decided not to upset you initially.”
I sneered in response, “Fine. I’m interested to see what you’re going to do to me.”
Nathaniel was extremely good at convincing others. He’d give people the feeling that he was greater than God, and everything he said was true.
Yet, God only existed if one believed in it.
I had a clear conscience, and I did not need God to lessen my guilt. That was why I did not believe in Nathaniel.
At the same time, that also proved that Ashton was ill in my mind.
In front of Nathaniel, I grabbed Ashton’s hand tightly. Afraid that he could not see clearly, I raised his hand between us, brazenly showing that we would never be apart.
As long as we were together, nothing could break us apart.
That scene seemed to have provoked Nathaniel. It was the first time I noticed anger on his face.
He stared at us with his dark eyes and took out his phone calmly before he dialed a number. “Come in.”
I thought that I could finally see the mastermind behind this. However, the person who came in was Rebecca.
Is this a coincidence?
Rebecca’s intention was clear. As soon as she entered the door, she stood in front of Ashton and me.
“Ashton, aren’t you leaving? Should I talk to your wife about what happened in the past?” Rebecca looked at him coldly, ignoring my existence.
