In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 1704

Chapter 1704 Property Notarization

Ashton shook his head expressionlessly. “No.”

He crossed his legs and put his hands on his knees. Looking very serious, he was immersed in his own thoughts. “I’m just discussing the possibility with you. After all, Summer hasn’t returned ever since she went to Macy’s grave.”

Speaking of that, Ashton suddenly lifted his gaze to look at me. His eyes were filled with an indecipherable look.

“If Summer can’t accept it, do you still want her?” There was not a trace of emotion in his voice. “Also, free up some time tomorrow to go to the office with me. We’ll need to do a property notarization.”

I froze, thinking of which question to answer first. It took me some time to get the words out of my mouth. “Why are we doing a property notarization?”

I was pretty familiar with the term. Judging from the current situation, the two of us had neither property disputes nor any problems in our relationship. Therefore, I could not figure out the reason to do that.

Anyone who heard of that would instinctively think that something was amiss. Division of property was usually just the beginning. Then, it’d be followed by a divorce and custodial rights.

Perhaps, it was just my occupational disease as a lawyer. I might be paranoid, but Ashton wasn’t himself that day.

“I know that you saw me meeting Nathaniel.” Ashton confessed, “He asked me out because he hoped that I could join his fraudulent plan. I’ve thought it through, and I’ll agree to his conditions.”

“Are you kidding me?” Although Ashton disliked following rules in doing business, he was still a decent man. He would never break the law and go against the organization.

Yet, Ashton did not answer my question. He looked at me calmly, as if he was telling me that he was being serious.

I was rendered speechless.
