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

It did not take long for Zachary to return to the hospital too.

Taking it as a cue for us to leave, Ashton and I left. Since I had nothing on my schedule, I could only follow Ashton to Fuller Corporation.

In the car, Ashton peeked over at me several times. He finally spoke when we stopped at a traffic light. “Are you okay?”

With a slight delay, I replied, “I’m not feeling stellar for sure, but I don’t know how to explain the relationship between my mother and me. It’s somewhat sad that we have to be wary of the way we behave around each other.”

“Have you decided to let it go?” He pursed his lips and asked.

Matching his gaze, I sighed. “What other choice do I have?”

He agreed.

“This is why we should have another child together. After all, you can’t simply disown your family.” Then, I paused and continued, “Grandma would be happy to know that I found my biological parents.”

Nodding, Ashton held my hand and smiled. “Yes, she would be.”

At Fuller Corporation, Ashton parked his car by the entrance and pulled me into the office.
