When There Is Nothing Left But Love

Sparks fly whenever love rivals meet, I guess. I pursed my lips in silence.

Rebecca threw her phone into her purse and looked at me with her arms crossed. “Since both of you are divorced, why are you back now?”

How straightforward of her! Indeed, she has changed a lot in the last four years. Averting my gaze from the bodyguards, I replied monotonously, “It’s none of your business, Ms. Larson.”

She snickered in response. “How is it not my business? For four years, I’ve worked hard and changed myself for the better. All I ever wanted was to be the one to stand by his side. But your sudden appearance just made all my effort go down the drain.”

Ashton had arranged a lot of bodyguards at the villa. They were now gathered at the gate, staring coldly at the men from the cars.

I looked back toward Rebecca and replied, “If you’re really meant to be with him, you wouldn’t need four years to try and get together with him. A year would have been more than enough.”

Her expression immediately turned cold. “Scarlett, you’ve ruined my love and my family relationship. Do you think that I’ll let it slide? If I can’t be with him, I would never let you and Ashton have an easy life either.”

Her words did not upset me. Standing from her point of view, I could understand her obsession and love. In fact, it was quite inspirational how she had fought to get what she wanted.

After so many years, you should know better than I do that’s it’s impossible for you to be with Ashton. Do you plan to continue spending the next four years for your futile love? You could do everything for love when you’re a youngster. But at the age of thirty, you should know that life is more important than love. Rebecca, you’re pretty and talented.
