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

“Scarlett, you mad woman! What nonsense is that?” Rebecca dropped her façade entirely following my threat.

My anger contained, I clenched both my fists tight. “Mad? When your mother did what she did, she should have considered how a madwoman such as I would retaliate against you!”
