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

Chapter 156

Chapter 156

The amusement look on his face disappeared as his brows pinched together in a deep frown again. “Scarlett, is divorce such a trivial thing to you?”

I lowered my gaze. Trivial? Nothing could ever be trivial when it has something to do with Rebecca. 

He pulled me into the car and started the engine.

The entire journey was silent. Nobody said a word.

When we pulled up in front of the villa, his phone rang. I remained in my seat and simply looked at him.

As he glanced at the ID flashing on his phone screen, his brows knitted tightly together.

“We’re home. Rest up and don’t think too much.” With a flick of his fingertip, he swiped across the screen and hung up the call. He looked at me, and there was a glint of gentleness in his eyes. “There was nothing between me and her from the start, and there will be nothing still in the future.”

I pursed my lips and stared back at him, noticing the subtle flicker of conflict in his eyes. How could there be nothing when he had cared for her so much back then? 

He pulled me into his embrace. “Stop thinking about it. You are my wife and the person I will spend the rest of my life with.” The way he was patting my back felt comforting, but I couldn’t help noticing the slight hint of helplessness in his voice.

He carried me into the bedroom and gave me a peck on my forehead. “I need to head back to the office now. I’ll try to come home a bit earlier tonight.”

I pursed my lips at the thought of him leaving so abruptly. “You’re going to see her, aren’t you?” I tugged at his shirt.
