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

Chapter 676

As Tessa almost lifted me off the seat, I pushed her away with all my might in desperation. She then stumbled and fell onto the ground, causing the air to fill with momentary awkwardness.

She looked at me in resentment. “What are you doing, Scarlett?”

“I’m sorry, Tessa. I didn’t mean to,” I said apologetically, equally taken aback.

Just then, Ashton and his group of friends were already making their way toward us.

Probably because Tessa was in his way, Ashton shot a quick glance at Joseph, who helped Tessa up from the ground.

Out of politeness, Ashton asked, “Miss, are you alright?”

Looks of grimace instantly disappeared from Tessa’s face as she stood up and replied softly, “Thank you. Scarlett and I were just talking about you. She said you guys are pretty close.”

I frowned. When have I said that?

There were glistens in Ashton’s eyes as they fell on me. His voice was low and reserved as he spoke, “Have you eaten?”

I nodded at the common pleasantry. The way the group of men who continued to fix their gazes at me, however, was making me uneasy again.
