When There Is Nothing Left But Love

Noting how Ashton’s expression had mellowed out a little at my explanation, I set the items down on the coffee table. “To you, these items might appear cheap and ugly. But to me, they’re a part of my past. They represent just how stubborn and persistent I was back then!”

At last, he locked gazes with me. Undecipherable emotions swirled in his eyes as he stated, “Next time, just tell me whatever you desire. As long as you want it, I’ll definitely give it to you!”

Although I was originally in a rather despondent mood, I nearly laughed upon hearing his words. Is it just me or can Ashton be quite an idiot sometimes?

Joseph really was quite the efficient man. It took him less than an hour to troop into the villa with a group of people following him. Each of them was carrying intricate boxes in their hands.

Joseph turned to Ashton, his expression as indifferent as ever. “Mr. Fuller, these are this year’s newest jewelry designs.”

Ashton glanced at me and raised an eyebrow pointedly. “Go and have a look. Pick out what you would like to keep.”

My eyebrow twitched slightly before I asked Joseph, “Are all these jewelry expensive?”

I was a realist so I hope my lack of tack could be forgiven. I seriously had zero knowledge of all these luxurious items.

Joseph replied solemnly, “All of them are from well-known brands and were crafted by the most skilled and patient artisans. On average, each piece costs at least twenty million.”

I was utterly stunned at his words. For a few seconds, all I could do was gape at him in shock. Then, I turned to Ashton and said, “Ashton, I don’t like any of them. Please tell them to take them all away.”

Only someone crazy would spend so much money on a piece of jewelry!

Ashton frowned. “You don’t like any of them?” He took a sweeping look at all the jewelry before focusing on me, waiting for my answer.
