In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 746

Excuse me…

That sounds like the exact opposite of a compliment!

Huffing slightly, I went downstairs to open the main door for her. She dragged her suitcase in like she owned the place. “You’ll give me a room, won’t you?”

There were five rooms in the villa. On the first floor was a guest room and the housekeeper’s room. I was using one of the rooms on the second floor, while another one was occupied by Armond. Hence, there was one more empty room.

I led her to the second floor and arranged for her to stay in that vacant room.

“The natural lighting isn’t too bad. It’s just a shame there’s no balcony!” she remarked and was about to unpack her suitcase.

“There is a large balcony in my room. Want to switch?” I proposed.

She shook her head with a small smirk on her lips. “No. This room is closer to Armond’s—much more convenient for me to take action, if you ask me!”

What?

I released a helpless chuckle and teased, “So, are you both together now?”

She paused her actions to look at me and spoke in a rather grave manner. “I have a very serious question to ask you.”

Although I was puzzled, I nodded and turned serious as well. “Go ahead.”

She pondered for a while before continuing, “When you and Ashton lived as husband and wife in the past, were there times when you guys wanted to do it but couldn’t?”

I blinked in astonishment because this seemed to be a sex-related question. Then, I felt my cheeks heat up from embarrassment.

But faced with her earnest expression, I had no choice but to answer her seriously as well. Fidgeting slightly, I said, “Care to elaborate?”

She pursed her lips and complied, “Well, both people are obviously very turned on, but things always stop right at the most crucial moment.”

I raised my hand to rub my nose and contemplated for a while. “Is it you or Armond?”
