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

I wanted to laugh at his words, but I could not. Looking at him, I remained calm and said, “Even if I’m divorced, at least I could stay at his place as his ex-wife. But if I live at your house, what reason should I use?”

Frowning, he looked slightly desperate to convince me. “It’s okay. You can use whatever reason you want. As long as you’re willing to move out of here, I’m fine with anything.”

I smiled. “Even if the reason is me staying as your wife?”

His body stiffened upon hearing my words. “If you want, I’d be more than happy to comply.”

I sighed. “Marcus, you’re engaged. And Camelia is a good girl. Don’t drop the gem in your hand to pick up a stone. That’s really foolish. Four years ago, I’d said clearly that we could only be friends. I love Ashton. No matter how much time has passed, it will only be him. Life is too short and I can’t cater to everyone’s needs. I want you to be happy, but I can’t be the one who makes you happy.”

I was not sure if he understood what I wanted to convey, but at least I had clearly refused him.

He was silent for a moment, but there was no disappointment written on his face. Instead, he was as calm as ever. “I don’t ask you to love me. I just need to know what I want in my life.”

He came closer to me and spoke in a hushed tone. “I regret it. Four years ago, I shouldn’t have left without gaining anything on that night.”
