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

As I watched him dashing away, I continued sipping my tea with great satisfaction.

You can never escape my clutches, Nathaniel. As long as I am still alive, you’ll be my prisoner.

It was exactly like what Ashton did to me for four years when I was still in R Province. I’ll toy you around while making sure that you can’t get rid of me.

After Nathaniel left, I rang Emery. I was hoping that she could get Alexander to meet me.

“Okay, I’ll try. I can’t promise you that he’ll show up,” Emery said hesitantly.

I wondered if she was making a fool out of me because I knew Alexander wouldn’t say no to her.

Just as I expected, Alexander agreed to meet at The Jade that afternoon.

Evidently, he didn’t know I was the one requested to meet him. When he entered the private room, he casually blurted, “Emery, it didn’t take long for you to forgive me…”

He immediately stopped speaking when he saw me inside. Embarrassed, he scratched the back of his head and asked, “Scarlett? What are you doing here? Where’s Emery?”
