In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 14

I knew that he was upset, so I bade goodbye to Macy softly as I walked toward him. Lowering my head, I expressed my gratitude. “Thank you!”

Ashton merely glanced at me as his expression turned thunderous. “Get into the car!” he ordered.

I entered the car obediently.

On the way back home, I received a text from Macy informing me that she was back home safely. Hence, I replied and texted her: Good night!

Looking out the car window, I realized that we were almost back home. The man was still as cool as ever. If he refused to say a word, I would remain silent too.

At long last, the vehicle came to a stop in front of the villa. He alighted the car as he soon made his way inside. I trailed along behind him as I explained, “Ashton, I thought that you were drunk. That is why I called Dr. Crest. I didn’t mean anything else.”

My explanation was possibly feeble, but I still spoke up even though I knew that he wouldn’t care.

Suddenly, he came to a stop as he narrowed his gaze at me. “Anything else? Do you seriously think Jared likes you?”

I was at a loss for words.

He’s right. Jared is Ashton’s friend. I am also Ashton’s wife. Even if I weren’t married to him, Jared wouldn’t like me.

I knew that Ashton treated me like dirt. If it weren’t for George’s help, I wouldn’t even get to meet Ashton, let alone marry him.

Seeing that I had kept silent, Ashton glared at me as he stomped upstairs.
