“How can I get over it?” As I was upset, I spoke in a very blunt manner. “You let her enter the office whenever she wants to and allow the staff to call her your fiancée. Yet, you still act so indifferently about it, as if it’s got nothing to do with you. Are you lying to yourself or to me, Ashton? What’s the point of all this?”

When he met my gaze, he suddenly laughed. “You allow John to shower you with concern, send you fruits and reminisce over good memories. Why can’t you tolerate Rebecca’s presence?”

“Did you have a fight?” He suddenly asked. I was stunned for a while before returning to my senses.

“No, Mr. Quinn. We aren’t a couple!” With that, I brushed past him and left.

Ashton caught up with me and grabbed my arm. “Where are you going, Scarlett?”

“It’s none of your business.” I flung his hand away and was about to leave when he dragged me back to the sofa. Looking at Joe, he asked, “What’s the matter?”

Having witnessed this scene, Joe felt a bit embarrassed. “I’ve settled the matters regarding the European market. Jared and I are planning to celebrate tonight. Will you be coming along?”

Ashton glanced at me and raised an eyebrow. “Do you think that I can go?”
