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

Chapter 173

Chapter 173

I paid no heed to his request and told him, “You should get someone else to drop by and take care of you. It’s getting late. I need to return home soon.”

Since the sky had already gotten pitch-black, I really had to return to Ashton soon. To be frank, I wasn’t sure what would occur once I reached home.

John’s expression darkened almost instantly. He replied petulantly, “Do you think that I have anyone else to rely on apart from you? Since you have something else to tend to, feel free to leave!”

“Scarlett! Are you holding a grudge against me? Do you want me dead? Are you going to leave me alone as well?”.

The sulky man added, “You do realize that you’re the only one I can rely on, don’t you?
