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

Chapter 243

Chapter 243

It had almost slipped my mind. I swiftly replied to him, already making plans to visit Jackson and Macy in J City as I hadn’t seen them for quite some time. Making a mental calculation, I realized that Macy’s child was probably already two months old.

Right then, my phone was abruptly snatched out of my hands. I whipped my head up and was met with Ashton’s obsidian eyes. With a frown, I questioned, “What’s wrong?”

He put the phone out of my reach and instructed, “Eat first.”

My frown deepened as I looked at the food in front of me, not having much of an appetite. “I already ate earlier. I’m not hungry.”

“It doesn’t matter. You should eat more.” He pushed a plate of stacked pancakes toward me.

I sighed aloud to express my displeasure but didn’t kick up a fuss.

After having breakfast, I could vaguely sense that he was in a foul mood, but I couldn’t figure out the root cause of it. Hence, I chose to be silent.

Silence hovered between us all the way back to the villa. The moment we stepped into the bedroom, Ashton abruptly hugged me from behind. “Did he touch you?” he asked in a deep and hoarse voice, evidently trying to suppress his rage.

Befuddled by his question, I didn’t get the chance to react when he started peppering me with fervent kisses, suckling the skin of my neck and shoulders.

My brows furrowed as his actions became rougher. Despite the anger surging in me, I managed to calmly say, “Did you bring me back here because Rebecca can’t satisfy you now that she’s pregnant? Am I replacing her?”

He paused just then and lifted his head, his breathing becoming heavy with anger. “Scarlett, am I really that despicable to you?”

“Aren’t you?” I refuted, turning my head to look at him and meeting his bloodshot eyes.

The temperature around us seemed to plummet drastically.
