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

Chapter 1480

Seeing that I had seen through his act, Ashton looked away in embarrassment and snapped, “That’s none of your business.”

He then placed his other hand on the steering wheel and took another drag of his cigarette. “Bear in mind that you’re just Scarlett’s substitute.”

Under a veil of the cigarette smoke, he drew a rather lonesome figure as if he had worn himself to a frazzle, trying to bear all the lies and deceptions in his life.

As he refused to say anything else, I had no choice but to stop pressing him for more information.

As the saying goes, you can’t wake a person who is pretending to be asleep. Moreover, with his personality, no one on earth could make him say something he refused to say.

An hour later, after he finished half a pack of his cigarettes, he finally started the car again and returned home.

Halfway through the journey, Gregory called and said he wanted a cake from the bakery we went to previously, so I asked Ashton to stop the car when we were passing by the mall.

When I was unfastening my seat belt, he said with a hint of contempt in his voice, “Why bother to get the cake by yourself? You can always get someone else to deliver it straight to the house.”
