When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 377

Chapter 377

He gave her a cold stare. “Joe will be responsible for taking care of you. Please refrain from coming here unless there’s something critical.”

Rebecca’s face paled even further. “Okay!” There was a slight tremble in the tone of her voice as she spoke. She nodded her head as she tried to conceal the hurt gleaming in her eyes.

“It’s late now. Scarlett and I have matters to attend to later. You should head back first,” Ashton continued emotionlessly, unmoved by Rebecca’s wounded expression.

It was clearly an order to leave. Both Rebecca and I could decipher the strict tone of his voice.

“Okay.” There was a trace of bitterness that flickered in her longing gaze. She left after that.

I pursed my lips as I watched her figure leave the villa. It was as if I could glimpse a hint of my past self in her lonely back. “Ashton, do you treat all women so heartlessly?”

“I won’t treat you that way.” Ashton turned to me. His dark gaze resembled the night sky.

I decided not to tease him any further. “Why does Rebecca need your help to visit Cameron?” I asked curiously

What happened between the two of them?

“Have you ever thought of looking for your biological parents?” Ashton asked me as his stare clouded over.

“Why did you change the topic so quickly!” For a moment, I was left speechless in shock.

Answer my question,” Ashton’s brows pinched together.

“I’d be lying if I say no. However, it has been so many years. I wouldn’t know how to react if I ever meet them again. I suppose we wouldn’t have the chance to reunite. Besides. I believe they had no plans to reunite with me when they abandoned me back then. So, quite frankly, I no longer want to look for them anymore,” I said after a fleeting thought.

Why did you ask me about that.” I asked as I met his strange gaze.

He shook his head. “Go upstairs and change. We’ll head out in a while!”

I couldn’t help but scowl when I recalled the message Nick sent me: Are we really meeting Cameron for a meal?

Ashton merely nodded-an indication that I should change my clothes.

At first, I wanted to deny his request. But on second thought, I decided to go along with him.

After freshening up in the bathroom, I put on a fresh outfit and dressed my face in a layer of light

makeup. When I descended the stairs, Ashton had already packed Summer’s diapers and milk bottles.

“Ashton, did you change Summer’s diapers?” I asked casually as I saw his smooth and practiced movements.

He nodded in reply and moved the milk bottles into Summer’s stroller. “Let’s go,” Ashton called

out.
