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

Chapter 1475

I quickly knelt down next to Gregory and pacified him, saying, “Silly boy, Mommy only left for a while. How could I have left you behind? Didn’t we agree that we’d stick together?”

I put on an unsmiling face and hooked my pinky with Gregory’s. He cheered up considerably afterward.

Before Gregory could reply, Ashton cut in with a low voice, “We’re going to meet my parents. You have to come too.”

We’re going to meet the Hall family? I thought, amused. I guess today isn’t a wasted trip after all.
