In Love, Never Say Never

Argh! I guess I can’t out-talk him, huh?

“Thanks for the ride home!” I decided to keep my mouth shut and boarded the car as instructed.

He nodded and responded with a poker face.

When we were about to reach the villa, I couldn’t suppress the urge to ask him about the thing that had been bothering me. “Joseph, where’s your girlfriend?”

“I don’t have one, Mrs. Fuller!”

I nodded and remarked, “Well, I thought so. Otherwise, your girlfriend will have a hard time dealing with you.”

He took a peek at me for a few seconds before turning around to focus on the road. “Actually, I’m married.”

I was completely speechless and decided to wrap up our conversation because I was pretty sure I would get increasingly infuriated if I were to go on.

Once we were back in the villa, I got out of the car as soon as possible and strode my way into the living room.

I changed into a pair of indoor sandals in the foyer and noticed the light in the living room was switched on. There was a man in the living room, enjoying his cup of tea as he indulged himself in reading a book.

“A**hole!” I blurted out the things I had in my mind almost instantly.

He frowned and stared at me silently, but I ignored him and bounced my way up the stairs without any hesitation.

“Hold it right there, Scarlett!” Ashton broke the silence and raised his volume out of the blue, rendering me incapable of motion while I was on my way up the stairs.
