When There Is Nothing Left But Love

I was absolutely dumbfounded. “Does Cameron know about this?”

“No one else knew the truth except Rebecca. I bet Joe is still in the dark about this too. Since Rebecca has claimed that it’s Ashton’s baby, I’m sure Cameron would have believed her words.” John shook his head.

Is that why Cameron tried so hard to get rid of my baby, so she could pave way for Rebecca’s?

“How about Ashton? Does he know about it?” Ashton seemed to have clarified that he had not had any physical intimacy with Rebecca.

John let out a cold snort. “He would be the stupidest man in the world if he himself doesn’t know it.”

That comment rendered me speechless for a moment.

Alright. Fine.

So did that mean Ashton took great care of Rebecca but had never touched her? Why didn’t he explain to me?

I would not have believed his words anyway. I guess he knew my temper better than I did.

Though, I really had to take my hat off to her brother, Parker. After all, he still managed to find a man who was willing to take good care of his sister even after so many years.

Despite knowing the baby was not his, Ashton was still willing to take on the responsibility.

“What are you thinking?” John patted me on the back. “My birthday is around the corner. You better get me a nice gift since I’ve helped you a lot.”
