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

Slowly but surely, a frown appeared on Nathaniel’s face. He stared without saying a word, and I had no clue what he was thinking about at the time.

However, I didn’t bother to try deciphering it. Instead, I held on to the opportunity to vent out all of my emotions. Then, I fell back against the wall while staring blankly at the floor.

The truth was that I was trying to figure something out. I was wondering when Ashton began planning everything, but Nathaniel couldn’t know that. With my head down, I looked like an angry wife who had just been chased out of the house.

I only had a slipper on, and between sobs, I muttered, “He doesn’t love me anymore… He doesn’t love me anymore…”

A few moments later, Nathaniel’s phone rang. He returned to the living room to pick the call up. After that, he rushed out of the door. I stopped crying as soon as he closed the door.

For the entire time, I kept my expression blank as I got up from the floor, put on my slippers, and went to wash my face. When I was done with all that, I grabbed some food from the refrigerator and cooked for myself.

Pretending to cry was a tiring task, and I actually got hungry after Ashton left.

I think that was the time I truly appreciated movie stars and understood how tough their job was.

I couldn’t help strategizing as I ate away. It was crucial I figure out how Nathaniel would treat me after this incident because it’d determine what my next move should be.
