In Love, Never Say Never

It felt odd that we were here at Pear Garden for a meal.

Zachary glanced at Ashton with a smile and asked, “Mr. Fuller, the Moores’ company is facing some problems. Do you have a moment for a chat?”

Ashton did not reply to him right away but turned to look at me with pursed lips. “Go take a stroll—it aids in digestion. I’ll be home after I’m done here. Summer can stay with me.”

I glanced at Zachary and asked Ashton, “Looks like both of you are having a discussion. Is it appropriate to bring along Summer?”

“Sure. Just go ahead!”

I had a feeling that Ashton was deliberately setting up bonding opportunities for Cameron, Zachary, and me.

So Ashton thinks that I can easily forget how they have hurt me previously?

Pear Garden’s yard was huge—exactly how Cameron had described earlier. I was mesmerized by the breathtaking view of the blooming winter roses.

“Scarlett, there are some freshly baked cookies in our kitchen. I’ll let you bring some back later,” Cameron said cheerfully as she trailed behind me.

Feeling uneasy about the change in her attitude, I pursed my lips and rejected her offer politely, “Ms. Anderson, it’s alright. I am cutting down on sugar as it is bad for health.”

She looked at me and asked warily, “Scarlett, you still loathe me because of what I’ve done earlier, don’t you?”

My brows furrowed as I responded impatiently, “Ms. Anderson, what do you want from me exactly? Stop beating around the bush! I don’t have time to play the guessing game with you.”
