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

“Is that so? Then let me ask you a question. Do you think Ashton has ever loved me?” I asked calmly.

“Of course.” A hint of delight flashed across Nathaniel’s eyes. “Unfortunately, it was ruined by me.”

“Oh, really? Then he should show you his gratitude. Otherwise, he would need to give up his life and pride because of love and live in agony. Ashton Fuller, you’re so lucky.” Both Ashton and Emery were confused and could not comprehend what I was doing.

Luckily, Nathaniel took the bait. “What are you trying to say?”

I quickly turned around and fixated my gaze on him. “It’s very simple. You don’t even dare to love someone. How can you say that you’re better than him?”

Listening to that, Nathaniel lowered his head, seemingly mulling over my words.

Afraid that he would see through my trick, I immediately continued and interrupted his thoughts, “Didn’t you say that you can’t understand my foolish behavior of sacrificing everything for love? Perhaps you’ll only understand how difficult it is to control your emotions when you really fall in love with someone. Even so, Ashton managed to break free from it. How can I not love such a man? If you don’t have confidence in yourself, then you don’t have to try. Not everyone can get out of it without getting hurt. Admitting that you’re inferior to others is better than falling for someone, right?”
