When There Is Nothing Left But Love

He stood up from the sofa and poured me a glass of water, then said, “Have a seat.”

I looked at him, then glanced around the house. Surprisingly, this place was turned into a three-story high unit and was very luxurious.

He frowned as the water dripped off his face and onto his shirt. Narrowing his eyes, he replied, “What are you trying to say?”

Jared was becoming furious. “Scarlett, what’s your problem? Do you think that I’d really do such a thing to my own child?”

He was dumbfounded and spoke in a cold, low voice. “Scarlett, Ashton may accept you like this, but I won’t. I’m more anxious than you are over Summer missing. But this is no excuse for your unreasonable actions.”
