When There Is Nothing Left But Love

Knowing that he would say that, I nodded. “Okay, I understand.”

Although I did not know what he planned to do, it had nothing to do with me. After all, I did not plan to rely on someone else to avenge me for all of my past sufferings. Except for myself, everyone else merely served as support.

As I had to go to J City tomorrow, I went to bed early that night. Yet, as expected, I was still plagued by insomnia.

When Ashton noticed that I could not fall asleep, he embraced me with his arms. “Why don’t we do it for the night?”

I was speechless.

There’s a huge difference between “do it for the night” and “do it once.”

“Ashton, I need to go to J City tomorrow. I don’t have the energy for that!” I chided before turning around. With my back facing him, I closed my eyes and prepared to sleep.

He hugged me from behind. Although he did not do anything, I…

After a while, I frowned and said, “Ashton, I can’t sleep like this.”

However, he quickly pressed his body against my back again. Left with no choice, I closed my eyes again and tried to fall asleep.

However, the more I wanted to sleep, the more I failed to do so. Just like that, I was kept awake for the entire night.
