When There Is Nothing Left But Love

“So what if you’re married to her? You don’t love her. Didn’t you say you love me, Ash? My body is all recovered now. Let’s have another child, okay?”

“Rebecca…” What came next were the sounds of a man and woman getting intimate with each other. I squeezed my eyes shut and struggled to tune out those sounds.

The harder I tried not to listen, the more I was tormented by those noises.

I had always known that there was something going on between Rebecca and Ashton, so I wasn’t surprised that they had slept together. However, I never expected to have to listen to them right in the act, nor did I want to know anything about how passionate they were in bed.

It lasted for a long time. By then, I had already thrown up everything in my stomach and my whole body felt drained of energy. I sat limply on the bed, and my heart started to crack, shattering into a million pieces that were impossible to pick back up.

“Ms. Stovall, how was the show? Entertaining enough?” The door was opened, and the plump man walked in. I could clearly hear the smile in his voice, making me feel disgusted.

Apart from her, I couldn’t think of anyone else who would do something so disgusting.

“Does it matter?” He snickered. “I’m sure you must be in a special mood after listening to such a good show, Ms. Stovall!”
