When There Is Nothing Left But Love

I was still steeped in anger, knowing that Hunter had cheated on Emery. And the more I looked at Ashton, the more I was reminded of Rebecca, which only made me even angrier.

“If you could tell, why didn’t you say anything? Are all men alike? Do you all always help one another keep your dirty secrets?”

“You didn’t come clean to Emery either, did you?” Ashton said with a frown.

Fine. He’s right.

“Didn’t you also think that there was nothing more to Rebecca becoming closer to you?” I retorted as a sudden urge to cry came over me.

For two years, I had been so troubled over the affairs of the heart that I never had a good night’s sleep. I continued to be plagued by those memories even to this day.

Ashton’s expression softened as he held my gaze. “If I had known I’d fall for you, I never would have made you sad.”

I bit down on my lip as I saw the sincerity in his eyes. An immeasurable amount of warmth filled my heart and I felt myself even more on the verge of tears.

Even though Ashton had made mistakes in the past, he never went to the extent of going all the way with Rebecca. On the other hand, Hunter had no problem betraying his love when faced with the temptation of the flesh.

“Can we go home now?” Ashton’s voice once again brought me out of my daze.
