When There Is Nothing Left But Love

I knew he got mad.

Lying beside him, I was at a loss looking at his back. “Ashton, then what do you want?” I asked.

He uttered coldly, “Scarlett, you know clearly what I wanted, but you’ve always acted like a fool with me. You don’t need to please me to make me agree to your request. Just tell me what you want, and I’ll do whatever you say. You know I can’t say no to you.”

At that instant, my heart was overwhelmed with mixed emotions.

I moved closer to him and rested my head on his back, wrapping my arms around him.

Upon that, the man’s cold aura subsided. Yet, he still had his back at me.

After a while, I spoke up, “I’m not doing it because of what happened today.”

The man remained silent. I let out a sigh and coaxed, “Ashton, don’t turn your back to me. You know I can’t sleep like this.”

The man’s body stiffened. “Then what do you want me to do?” he asked.

It seemed like his anger had dissipated, so I pushed my luck. “I want you to cuddle me.”

Slowly, Ashton turned around to face me. He was indeed good-looking. Whenever I saw his handsome face, I felt lucky to be his wife.
