When There Is Nothing Left But Love

Giving a light cough, Holden stared at me and drawled, “Don’t you think it’s rather inappropriate for you to discuss women with me so blatantly? Do you talk to Mr. Fuller in such a manner as well?”

I shook my head in response. “Of course not. He doesn’t parade women in front of me so blatantly. Besides, I have some say in the kind of woman he likes. Furthermore, judging from his current demeanor, I think he probably won’t be like you for the time being.”

Upon hearing that, his brows furrowed slightly. “For the time being? So, you don’t trust Ashton Fuller all that much either!”

“Well, not exactly. It’s just that no one can guarantee what happens in the future, so I only pay attention to the present. As long as he loves and cherishes me presently, that makes me the happiest. As for the future, we shall see what happens then. It’s something that hasn’t happened, after all, so no point fussing over it!”

Just then, the elevator doors opened, and I stepped in with him. He agreed with my sentiments, but he looked at me and murmured, “Scarlett, I think you’re being too optimistic and rational. It’s not really a good thing.”

At that, my brows scrunched together. “What kind of love is considered irrational?” Ashton gave me sufficient sense of security, hence the reason for my seemingly rational and calm demeanor.

After pondering for a moment, he replied, “That friend of yours. I think her love is truly irrational. She’s so fanatical about her man that it’s a bit maniacal. I really don’t know how to describe her.”
