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

“I was waiting for you!”

“But I’m not going to Fuller Corporation,” I uttered in surprise.

“I know,” he knowingly replied. Walking towards me, he explained, “But I can drop you off at the hospital before heading to my office since it’s along the way.”

“I can drive myself there. It isn’t that far away anyway!”

“I don’t think it’s safe for you since it’s snowing heavily outside,” he insisted.

Determined to send me there, he left no room for argument.

As such, I followed him out helplessly. Oh well, I’m not up to anything shady either.

After Ashton pulled up to the hospital’s entrance, he retrieved a few boxes of tonic from the car boot.

I raised my brows in astonishment. “When did you prepare them?”

He cheekily revealed, “I requested for Joseph to do this for me last night.”

From his actions, I could tell that he wanted to accompany me to visit Cameron.

I paused for a moment, then trailed behind him. A warm fuzzy sensation bubbled within me. His meticulous gesture touched my heart, but my response did not seem to portray so.

Six hours had passed since Cameron was out of the surgery room, and her anaesthesia had already worn off.
