“That’s enough!” Ashton, being the strong man that he was, snatched the chair from me and glared at me in disbelief. “Scarlett, what’s the matter with you? How did you become like this? We might have lost one baby, but we could always have another one.”

“Ho!” I scoffed. I lifted my chin and gave him an icy stare before flashing my palm in his face. Very slowly, I said, “Ashton, you’re one to talk. It’s easy for you, isn’t it? Giving birth. All you need to do is fire several shots. You don’t have to go through ten months of hard labor!”
