When There Is Nothing Left But Love (Ashton And Scarlett)

Chapter 817

We should not be too adamant in life. Otherwise, we will be the ones who suffer in the end.

We chatted for a long time during the stroll. When we were back at the base, he turned towards me and said, “Since we’ve reconciled, can I invite you for dinner tonight? Don’t overthink about it. It’s just that I’m not familiar with this place yet, and since I’m just going to be here for a day or two, I want to take this chance to spend time with my close friend. It would be better to eat with a friend than eating alone.”

Looking at his innocent and expecting gaze, I could not bring myself to reject him. I nodded and replied, “Sure.”

As Marcus went back to the base with a smile, I suddenly realized that Ashton might be back at the Lavelian Village tonight.

But I can’t take back my words. I sighed at the thought.

The work I had in the afternoon was a breeze.

 

When I was ready to leave the office in the evening, Marcus came and leaned against the door, smiling at me. “Seems like you’re busy with work every day.”

I nodded in reply and packed up. Looking at my phone, I realized I had not received any message from Ashton since morning. Is he buried in work?

 

Marcus brought his car today and parked it at the gate of the base, so we walked out from the base together and got into his car. Whistling to himself, he seemed to be in a good mood. He looked at me and asked, “Do you know any good restaurants here? You’ve been here longer than I do.”

I shook my head. “Nothing special. I seldom go out after work.”
