When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 706

Ashton brought me back into the car and rolled the windows back up. I had no energy left to move or talk, so I just leaned against the car and slowly drifted off to sleep.

When I woke up to the sound of water running in the bathroom, I found myself lying on a hotel room bed.

I knew I was brought to the hotel by Ashton, so waking up on a foreign bed didn’t worry me as much.

Even after the rest I had, my head was still spinning, and my body felt limp. No matter how hard I tried, I just couldn’t get myself out of bed.

So that’s how it is after I drink. I may be sober, but my body just refuses to cooperate with me.

The bathroom door opened, and Ashton stepped out with a towel wrapped around his waist. “Are you awake?” he asked as he glanced at me.

I nodded and instinctively pulled at the covers. It was only then that I realized I had been stripped naked.

My eyes widened in horror as I glared at Ashton. “Ashton, you’re despicable! You knew I was drunk, and yet, you… “

He turned toward me with a raised eyebrow. “And yet I what?”

I couldn’t make heads or tails of his reaction, so I mumbled, “Did you do that to me?”

He casually yanked his towel off to dry his hair before asking, “Do that?”

He knows what I mean, yet he still acts all innocent about it.

Since he seemed reluctant to give me a direct answer, I changed the subject. “Where are my clothes?”

He stopped drying his hair to look at me, still with the same indifference he had before. “You should be asking me where my clothes are,” he replied coolly.

“Fine. Where are your clothes then?” My anxiety increased when I realized the room stank of booze, and both his and my clothes were missing. What have I done? Wait… What have we done?

He threw his towel aside and leaned closer to me. “My custom-made suit cost one hundred and eighty thousand. Include my emotional damages, and that would be two hundred thousand in total. How do you plan to settle that?”

His words left me speechless. When did I owe him two hundred thousand?
