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

Chapter 624

Stunned, Sally paused for a moment before replying to me, “Honey, what are you saying? This is all so sudden.”

“Thank you!” I cut her off and wrapped my arms around her. There was a bittersweet feeling in my chest.

This world is never a place dictated by absolute rights or wrongs. Aren’t we all merely treading grey areas day by day?

There was an anxious expression on her face as she asked, “Is something wrong?”

I gave her a cheeky smile in return. “Yes, I’m hoping you can help me with something.”

Surprised, she asked, “What is it?” Her expression turned serious.

“Can I borrow some money?”

She laughed out loud at my request. “Honey, you gave me a shock!” She pulled out some notes from her pocket and stuffed them in my hands.

Then, she chided me, “Honey, why did you make it so dramatic? I really thought something serious had happened.”

I chuckled as I counted out the money I needed and returned the rest to her. “A tenner is enough.”
