In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall)

Chapter 130

I didn’t return to the villa after everything settled. I only sat around in Glenwood Apartments to pass the

time since I didn’t need to go to work at Fuller Corporation any more.

After a few restless days, it was pretty obvious how much my belly had grown.

I didn’t even try looking up news regarding Ashton anymore. I just resolved to take care of the budding

life within me.

During the weekend, Macy practically begged me to go to Q City with her for a few days since she was

so bored. With the free time that I have right now, and me being the laid back person I am, agreed

immediately.

It was a short trip from J City to Q City and it only took about an hour to arrive from one to the other.

We hopped onto the train and Macy looked like an excited schoolgirl as she looked at the scenery

outside. “I just made a down payment on a new house and the renovations just completed. I am inviting

you over for a few days to jazz up my new place,” she said while holding my hand.

“When did you buy a new house? This is the first time I’m hearing this,” I asked. Admittedly, things

have been hectic for me so I didn’t pay as much attention to her affairs.

“I only got it recently. I wanted to tell you earlier but you were so occupied with everything at work so I

decided not to tell you until now,” she said nonchalantly as she was looking at her phone.

I guess she has a point.

Our hour-long journey came to an end as quickly as it had begun.

After we alighted, Macy hailed a cab to get us to our destination as soon as possible. I could tell that it

was a newly developed residential area on our way there.

The unit wasn’t very big, being only a hundred-odd square meter. The renovations were exquisite but

not something that high-end. It was perfect for two people to live in.

“Let’s get some food in a bit. We’ll rest for tonight and then I’ll show you around tomorrow,” Macy said

while leaning against the door to my room.

“So what are we having later?” I nodded in agreement with her plan.

“What do you feel like eating?” she asked while glancing at my belly. “Oh, I know! Let’s get some

pasta!” she continued.

“OK! Let’s have some spicy pasta! I haven’t had spicy food in ages! I’m already five months into my

pregnancy, there shouldn’t be any problems,” I expressed. I knew Macy was concerned for me.

“Are you sure you can handle it?” she questioned me with her eyebrows raised.

“Yes, I am,” I assured with a nod.

“Well, alright then!” Macy agreed.

I wasn’t familiar with Q City so I just tagged along with Macy wherever she went. We went over to

Million Plaza where they had the whole of the third floor dedicated to food. Macy went a little wild once

we got there as it has been a good while since we last ate out.

We decided to do a little shopping before we ate and Macy was like a kid in a candy store. She was

only held back by the fact that I was pregnant and couldn’t walk that much. Otherwise, she would have

probably shopped till the next day.

After finding a nice little pasta shop, we sat down and ordered our food. “Shucks! I had so much I

wanted to eat while we were walking around. But now that I’ve actually ordered them, I’ve lost my

appetite!” she said with a sigh.

By my estimations, she was about two months pregnant now. “Do you get any morning sickness?” I

asked.

“Nope. I just don’t have much of an appetite. Everything else is pretty much normal,” she said as she

shook her head.

Pregnancy was different for everyone and I knew that, so I just nodded my head at her statement.

“Remember to be prepared for everything. Stay in Q City and live out the rest of your pregnancy in

peace. We’re only two to three months apart, so if you have anything you need for yourself or your

child, just let me know,” I reassured her.

“I already have everything planned out! I’ve even gotten the confinement center sorted out for my

confinement period. The only issue I ran into is that Q City doesn’t have as many confinement centers

as J City. But I found one near my place so it will be convenient when the time comes,” she nodded

with a laugh.

Macy had always been better at taking care of herself than me so I wasn’t too worried. I took out an

ATM card from my purse and placed it in front of her. “This ATM card was something George gave me

when I got married to Ashton. I have never used it but there is money in the account. You’re gonna be

alone in Q City and I’m sure this would be of some use to you,” I stated.

Macy frowned a little and pushed the card back to me. “I was able to pay off the house with just my Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

savings. The money I got from selling off the bar is still in my bank untouched. Ashton was also really

generous with his offer and paid me more than double the market price. So don’t worry about me, I

have more than enough funds to support myself if there were any emergencies. So please take the

card back and keep it for yourself. I’ll be fine,” she reassured.

I ignored her pleas and pushed the card back to her again. “I’m not taking no for an answer. I’ve

worked at Fuller Corporation for two years and I’ve barely touched what I earned. Ashton also gave me

a card that I’ve barely used. Moreover, Grandma left me some money too. On top of that, I’m still

married to Ashton so he won’t mistreat me or anything technically. Even if we get divorced I would still

get a lump sum of alimony. So please just take what I’m offering,” I pleaded in a serious tone.

“Alright, I’ll accept it. But in return if there’s anything bothering you, you have to let me know

immediately!” she finally conceded and kept the card away.

It was then the waiter brought our pasta out to us. So I just gave Macy a shrug and shot her a look

saying, “I promise you! Now let’s eat!”

Time flew by as we were eating and chatting away.

Seeing as it was getting late, Macy gave her belly a rub and suggested, “Let’s get some milk tea and

do a little shopping before we head back! I haven’t shopped in a very long time!” she suggested.

I agreed since it really had been a long time since we last came out together. We got the bill and left for

the shopping area.

“Letty, what brand have you…” Macy froze as soon as she heard those words. Her face filled with terror

and dread.

I couldn’t help but follow her gaze and not far from where we were was John. He was in casual attire

and with his statuesque physique and charming features, he was more attractive than any male

celebrity around.
