In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 447

I looked away and avoided his gaze, but he took me by surprise with an amorous kiss.

It took me a short while to pull myself together. “Summer is still in Glenwood Apartments! I need to return to her!”

Staring at me, he said, “I have gotten in touch with Jackson. He told me he would look after Summer. Since you’re back, don’t you think you’re supposed to live with me?”

My brows furrowed. “But we’re already divorced!”

“I have never signed the agreement.” He uttered in a hoarse voice.

He then lifted me up and brought me into the villa against my will. It was only then that I noticed we had made our way back to the villa at Peakville Estate.

Apart from the exterior of the villa, nothing much had changed over the past four years.

I felt uncomfortable being carried by him. Hence, I insisted, “I can walk on my own!”

“It’s fine. Just close your eyes and take a break.”

I found his words absurd because it was only a short distance that would take me a few minutes at most.

The moment we entered the living room, I was caught off guard by the presence of Sally and Nancy.

It had been four years since I last saw Sally. In spite of her pale and haggard face, it didn’t impact the noble presence she was blessed with since birth.

The fact that we showed up in such an intimate manner startled the duo who was drinking tea in the living room. They jumped up from the couch.

Sally’s displeasure was written all over her scrunched-up face. Staring at Ashton, she asked petulantly, “Why have you brought her back? You—”

Similarly, Ashton replied with a frown, “Aunt Sally, I believe that’s none of your business.” His tone was flat and emotionless, indicating to her that she should stop poking her nose into his business.

Sally was on the verge of losing her cool. “Ashton, since you guys are divorced, why can’t you move on? It has been four years—”

“Aunt Sally, it’s getting late. I believe it’s time for you to leave!” He made himself clear that he wanted his aunt to get out of his sight at once.

Ashton lowered his gaze and looked at me before uttering in a gentle tone, “If you’re sleepy, go ahead and take a nap.”

I couldn’t help but sigh when I realized I had indirectly offended Sally once again.

He brought me upstairs and asserted, “I have everything you need in the bedroom. Nothing much has changed.”
