When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 379

Chapter 379

Originally, I thought that she would leave as I began feeding Summer. Instead, Cameron remained rooted in her spot as she watched me breastfeed Summer.

Summer’s antics as she suckled on my breast were awfully adorable. She would clutch her feet in her hand as her bright eyes remained wide open.

“Scarlett, you are too skinny. Although you just gave birth, you’ve lost all of the fat around your abdomen. The two of you are still young parents. You don’t know how to take care of yourselves. Now that the New Year is almost here, why don’t you stay in Pear Garden for a few days? I heard from Nick that you plan to celebrate it with Mr. Fuller. We have experienced chefs and nutritionists working in Pear Garden. They can help to strengthen your body. What do you think?” Cameron asked.

“It’s alright, Ms. Anderson. Thank you for your offer,” I rejected her offer politely.

A flicker of awkwardness painted her face upon my refusal. “Scarlett, are you still holding on to the past?” she asked tentatively. “The two of you are safe and sound right now. Besides, I’ve already received punishment for my actions. The Moore family does not acknowledge me. As a result, Zachary had to accompany me to J city. Now that everything is in the past, let’s start afresh, shall we?”

Upon hearing her words, I felt smothered with a haze of irritation. “Ms. Anderson, you can always regain your status and wealth. Yet, you stole the life of a living person. How do you plan to repay for your irreversible actions?” I asked her with a twitch of my lips.

Her face paled. “Please give me some privacy when I’m feeding my child,” I said firmly.

Cameron opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something. Yet, she remained silent. Without another word, she exited the room.

As I remained seated on the chaise lounge, I observed my surroundings. The room was beautifully decorated in lavish and pink designs.

In an instant, one could tell that the room belonged to a woman. Although Nick visited the Pear Garden occasionally, there was no way that such a girlish room would belong to him. Cameron was also out of the picture. I concluded that this room must have been Rebecca’s.

After she had her fill, Summer reached out her hand. Her sudden touch jolted me out of my daze as I turned to gaze at her with a smile. Gently, I lifted her and pressed a delicate kiss on her adorable face. My heart seemed to warm affectionately every time I saw her face.

All of a sudden, the bedroom door burst open. I quickly yanked my shirt down in haste. I looked up to see Rebecca. Her face turned as cold as ice when she saw me sitting in her room.

“Scarlett, why did you steal everything from me? First, you stole my lover and loved ones. Now, you’re even in my bedroom.”

I was puzzled by her words. “Ms. Larson, your inability to retain what’s yours has nothing to do with me. I have no interest in your bedroom nor your loved ones. So why would I try to steal them away? As for the person you like, why don’t you elaborate a little more? I am his legally married wife. How is that stealing from you?”

Her eyes reddened in a mixture of anguish and anger. “If it weren’t for your meddling, Ash would never have married you! You are but a responsibility to him! Who do you think you are?” Rebecca snapped angrily in response.

I nearly burst out laughing upon hearing her remark. “Ms. Larson, at least he is willing to take that responsibility and marry me. What about you? Do you think that he loves you? If it was true love, why doesn’t he spare you a single glance? Why do you think that Ashton loves you when he can barely tolerate your presence? Is that what you call love?”

“Y-You…” Rebecca stuttered as she was at a loss for words.
