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

Chapter 183

Chapter 183

I soon realized that his hand was still on my waist and felt my face flush with embarrassment. Marcus had caught me in time. Raising my head, I looked at Marcus and thanked him for responding so quickly.

He frowned and immediately retracted his hand. “It was nothing.” Marcus then turned to address Sharon. Coldly, he said, “Let’s go.”

Sally was not usually the type to deliberately seek out conflict, but this time, she was the one who held Sharon back. “You tripped and bumped into someone, yet you’re trying to leave without apologizing?”

Sharon was not happy, yet her arrogance remained undiminished. “Are you implying that a bunch of sl*ts like you are worthy of an apology?”

The slap that followed rang loud and clear.

Sharon looked at Sally in disbelief as she clutched her reddened cheek. “You b*tch! How dare you slap me?”

Sally tried to suppress her anger. In a low voice, she said, “Sharon, I daresay that I’ve never wronged you all these years. You, of all people, should know the exact reason why you and Benjamin drifted apart. I’ve had to swallow my anger and give in to you every step of the way, but I never did it out of fear. I did that because I pitied you. I pitied the fact that you’ve lived out half your life, yet you still don’t know what you’re living for!”

“I don’t care if you’re rude or arrogant towards me, but you shouldn’t behave that way towards a pregnant woman.” Sally pointed towards my belly and carefully enunciated each word. “You can have a tough life, but you cannot forsake your morals and your soul this way.”

“The baby in her belly is seven months old. If not for Marcus’s reflexes, you would have hurt not one but two lives. Do lives matter so little to you, Sharon? Just because your family is one of the bigshots in the city, you can now afford to be so callous about human life?”
