In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 544

Obviously, she wanted to stop me from leaving.

With so many passers-by around, it would be unwise to create a scene and attract unnecessary attention.

After a pause, I looked at her calmly and asked, “Are you are actually infatuated with Ashton or are you just refusing to accept defeat?”

For a moment, she was frozen in place, probably wondering why I would suddenly ask such a question.

Receiving no response from her, I took my car keys out of my bag and said, “Come on, let’s go. Since you are unable to give him up, take a trip with me!”

After all, humans need closure.

She looked around at the crowd of passers-by, then followed me into the car with a gloomy face.

Throughout the whole trip, the grim expression on her face remained, and it was apparent that she was unwilling to talk to me.

As I drove, I broke the silence nonchalantly, “I got my driving license six years ago, which was the year after I married Ashton. I remember that he took care of you well throughout that year. By that time, Fuller Corporation had been under him for two years, and he was busy with meetings every day. Sometimes, Joseph was away, but he did not like taking cabs or hiring drivers, so he urged me to get a driving license. He said it was pointless for me to wait for him at home, so I might as well learn to drive and attend meetings with him. That way, I could drive him back too.

She sneered. “He only treats you as a member of his staff. No one attends meetings with his wife.”

I smiled calmly and nodded. “Yeah, I thought so too at that time. I felt that he didn’t love me at all but treated me as a subordinate. But later on, I realized that I was wrong. After I learned how to drive, he did not go to meetings with me. Instead, he gave me a car for my convenience so that I could drive anywhere I like.”

Her face stiffened upon hearing that, unable to come up with a retort.

I let out a faint smile. “Ashton’s love is not conspicuous. He was concerned that it would not be safe for me to take cabs everywhere, so he had me learn to drive because he knew he would not be able to fetch me all the time due to his hectic schedule.”
