In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 1309

The police officer explained the whole situation to me.

Emery wanted to file an application for custody of their son, Xavier. She also requested that all the joints assets should go to her. Initially, both parties had reached an agreement, but their decision somehow reached Hunter’s parents, and they were not happy about it. His parents were strict with family traditions, so they refused to let Emery take their precious grandson away from them. They went to her office to confront her and made a big fuss.

Emery immediately called the police, and she was brought in for questioning. Hunter’s mother had said some offensive things to her prior to my arrival. Despite that, Emery remained calm and composed. Instead, Mrs. Zane was aggravated with anger and passed out on the spot.

The police released Emery since she wasn’t involved in physical or verbal violence. I sent her home after I signed some documents.

On our way home, she stared out the window in silence as though something was bothering her.

I guessed she was worried about the custody, so I tried to comfort her. “The Zanes may seem like a better fit for Xavier, but you have the advantage in terms of financial resources. The judges will also take the morality clause into consideration. We will prove his infidelity to the court, so you have the upper hand.”

Emery turned her head to me and replied softly, “Mr. Newman told me the same thing. I trust you guys one hundred percent on this.”

“Thanks.” I patted her back gently. “I know it’s hard to deal with a stubborn parent, but just bear with them. Do what you think is right. Don’t take their words to heart.”

Then I realized that she dressed differently that day, more like the girl next door. She put on a long delicate silk dress on her voluptuous body, probably to hide her sexiness and scars.
