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

Chapter 146

The steamy atmosphere made the two of us feverish. He grabbed my waist roughly, growling sensually, “Focus on me.”

The next thing I knew, Ashton was carrying me to the bed. Towering over me, he spoke as if giving a command, “Take it off.”|

Following his gaze to my nether regions, I was at a loss for words. I placed my hands over my belly and looked at him nervously. “The doctor said that we shouldn’t! It’s going to hurt the kid.”

I‘m not going to budge on this! 

Upon hearing my words, his gaze visibly darkened. “So what? You want me to just give up like that?” He whispered, his tone dangerous.

I nodded lightly. “That’s what the doctor said. Don’t do it unless you don’t want this kid anymore.”

As he pursed his lips in silence, my phone suddenly rang.

I got him off me and took my phone. It was John.

Feeling somewhat nervous, I glanced at Ashton. He seemed to be rather displeased upon seeing the name displayed on my phone screen.

I got up, wanting to answer the call at the balcony.

However, a pair of hands quickly grabbed my shoulders. “Answer it here!” He commanded before pressing on the speaker button.

I frowned. “Ashton, you’re invading my privacy!”
