In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 1018

He nodded. “I know, it’s Armond from the Murphys in K City. That being said, he seldom goes to the Imperial Hotel. All of the things in the Imperial Hotel are handled by Brandon.”

I nodded. “How much do you know about Brandon?”

He glanced at both Ashton and me before answering, “I don’t know much. The reason I helped him was because of the copious amounts of money he offered.”

I narrowed my eyes. “Are you still short on money?”

He shook his head. “No, but I don’t want to have to depend on my brother-in-law anymore. I needed the money just so I could escape his grasp and finally be free again. My sister has suffered a lot being with him. I’ve been wanting to take her away from him for a while now.”

I pursed my lips and stopped myself from prying more into his current situation. I gazed at Boris, who was standing outside by the pool, before uttering, “Boris, bring her in!”

Dillan let out a sigh of relief as he saw that the woman who was brought in unharmed. Her clothes were not even wet. He paused for a bit and glared at me with a surprised look. “You…”

I pursed my lips. “You can take her and leave now. The people outside must be quite flurried after waiting for so long. However, since I treated your wife with care, I expect you to return the favor by helping me out with something.”

He looked at me vacuously and queried, “What do you need my help with?”

“Find a way to retrieve a kid named Jody from Brandon. It should be an easy task for you, right?”

Ann, who looked despondent before, suddenly stared at me with her eyes lit up. I took a glance at her before directing my eyes back to Dillan as I waited for his response.

Dillan nodded and replied, “Okay, I’ll find a way to get that kid into your hands.”

I nodded. “Okay, you may leave now!”

Dillan, who was all beaten up, took his wife and strode carefully toward the exit. Ashton walked to my side and wrapped his arm around my waist. “You should go back home and rest if you’re tired.”

I nodded and leaned on him as we walked out of the villa. After exiting the villa, Ashton stopped and turned around to gaze at Ann. “What do you plan to do with her?” he asked.
