When There Is Nothing Left But Love

I thought Ashton wouldn’t be bothered to answer and would only smile politely, but to my surprised, he replied, “We’ve been married for a few years.”

Everyone in the elevator was shocked at the news. I could feel their stunned gazes on me.

I parted my lips to speak, but there was nothing to say. In the end, I flashed a smile.

The curious employees started asking about our relationship, like how we started dating and got married.

To my relief, we arrived at our destination right then. I took Ashton’s hand and apologized to the others. We exited the elevator and headed to my office.

After entering my office, I chided him, “I told you not to come here.”

He arched a brow. “What’s wrong? I was telling the truth earlier.”

Stunned, I retorted, “I thought you hate people gossiping about you?” He had his private elevator back in Fuller Corporation, so he rarely spoke to his employees. Why is he so talkative back in the employees’ elevator?

Does he enjoy talking to others about our relationship?

A smile flitted across his lips as he tugged me closer. “You’re my wife. That’s not gossip. Gossip is all about nonsense.”

I pried his hands off and showed him the sofa. “You can’t hug me whenever you want. I have to work, get it?”

Amused, he returned, “Am I a child?”

Well, no.

“Anyway, you can’t disturb me at work. Get it?”
