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

The truth was that Nathaniel wouldn’t even think about all that when his emotions heightened and judgment clouded. Still, I wanted to verbalize everything and remind him of my past. I saw it as a smart move because it would prevent me from having to bite my tongue again.

Nathaniel’s expression took a sharp turn immediately after he heard that. His tone carried a hint of anger when he said, “Don’t try to get under my skin.”

Not wanting to back down, I challenged, “Oh, I’m the one making a fuss? Who was the one who dragged me out of bed in the middle of the night and made me travel several hours by car just to take a fleeting look at the site? Just be honest and say that you don’t trust me. You didn’t need to put on a show like this.”

After saying all that, I turned around to ignore him and put a stop to that argument.

The reflection on the window showed me that Nathaniel had parted his lips as if he had something to say, but he didn’t say anything in the end.

It was three in the morning when we returned to the villa on the mountain. The silent treatment lasted the entire trip.

After opening the door, I tossed my shoes at a random spot and walked barefoot on the icy floor. It was so cold that my entire body trembled.

“Stop it right there,” requested Nathaniel in exasperation.

“What?” I was standing on the spot, but I didn’t turn around because I was pretending to be mad and had to behave that way.
