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

Chapter 120

Chapter 120 

Raising a brow, Ashton noted, “You seem awfully interested in Jared’s matter.”

I subconsciously nodded, but when I noticed something amiss with his expression, I quickly chuckled. “Not really. I just suddenly recalled that night, so I wanted to ask about it. I don’t mean anything else.”

Lowering his gaze, he kept quiet.

After realizing I had not much appetite, he stopped cating as well. Leading me out of the restaurant, we headed to the mall. Ashton’s way of shopping always seemed like he was planning to buy an entire warehouse worth of goods.

Although I was shopping with him, it seemed as though I was only there for moral support. However, he was buying baby products, so I said nothing about his shopping. After all, everything he bought would be put to use eventually.

After a round of shopping, it was getting late. Feeling tired, I fell asleep soon after I entered the car.

I slept the entire journey home. Before my eyes could open, he had picked me up into his arms, and my eyes flew open.

“We’re home.”

I gave him a quiet hum in response as he carried me all the way to our bedroom. After gently putting me on the bed, he went to the bathroom.

The sleep during the journey home had been a nap, so I could not go back to sleep after waking up. Instead, I stared at the ceiling, daydreaming.

After Ashton finished showering, he dried himself before pulling the blanket away and lying beside me. With his arm around my waist, he held me in an embrace.

As we stared into each other’s eyes, I found myself lost in his.

Knitting his brows, he gently pushed the stray hairs on my forehead to the side. “Do you want to take a shower?” he asked in a quiet voice.

“I don’t feel like moving.” I adjusted myself to the side, feeling slight discomfort in my stomach.
