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

Chapter 579

After a moment of consideration, I replied, “Flora, you can go back anytime you want. It’s only me and Ashton in the house, so it shouldn’t be too much of a problem.”

With a smile on her face, she nodded. “Okay. Thank you, Mrs. Fuller.”

As I glanced around the kitchen, I realized that I had forgotten to take my phone from the bedroom, so I looked towards Flora and said, “Please help me to get my phone upstairs.”

I had left it charging for the whole night. It should be fully charged by now.

After she brought it down to me, I switched it on and browsed through the trending topics on social media. As expected, it was mostly about the holidays and many people were looking forward to it.

Besides, there were many sales happenings on online shopping platforms. Looking outside the window, it was still snowing currently. I figured it would be inconvenient to go out today.

Hence, I decided to stay at home and do some reading instead.

I was about to fall asleep when I received a call from Jackson at noon.

I answered the call, and before I could say anything, he had cut me off. “Scarlett, where are you?” He sounded anxious.

“In the villa,” I replied. But, again, before I could continue, his voice had come from the other side. “Summer has gone missing in W City. Has Ashton told you about it?”

Immediately, my mind went blank, and my ears started to ring.

Jackson called my name several times on the other side of the line, but I did not hear him.

Flora came to check on me when she heard the sound of my cup smashing to the floor.
