When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 169

Upon hearing his words, I almost cast my phone aside. A few seconds later, I raised my voice and confronted the maniac, “John, what the hell is wrong with you? What have you installed on my phone?”

He replied nonchalantly, “It’s just a form of simple spyware. You should stop getting worked up over such a trivial matter. I’m trying to keep an eye on you and ensure that everything is fine on your end. That’s all.”

“You’re rotten to the core!” I could barely suppress the urge to smash my phone.

“Please calm down, Scarlett. I just want to keep an eye on you and ensure that you’re fine. Isn’t it great? I get to know what you’re up to whenever I want!” He sounded aggrieved, speaking as if he meant no harm.

“You should stay away from me!” After I hung up the call, I rushed into the washroom and flushed my phone away without a second thought.

I was so angry that my heart wouldn’t stop racing. I couldn’t pinpoint the exact time he had installed the spyware on my phone.

After the farce, I wasn’t in the mood to satisfy my cravings anymore. I went to the living room and took a seat on the couch to collect my thoughts because I was greatly infuriated.

Eventually, I fell asleep on the couch in the living room. When I woke up a little later, I noticed that there was a blanket over me.

Once I opened my eyes, Ashton and I exchanged glances because he was right in front of me.

I was taken aback by his presence and I greeted him immediately, “G-Good morning!”

“Why have you fallen asleep on the couch?” He broke the silence, asking me this question indifferently as if he was displeased.

“I couldn’t bring myself to sleep last night. Therefore, I decided to come downstairs for a change of environment. I didn’t expect to fall asleep on the couch as well.”
