In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 231

Some time had passed when John finally looked at me with misty eyes and queried, “Who did this?”

I lowered my head and tried to hold back my tears but to no avail as they flowed down my cheeks like a broken string of pearls. “Cameron and the Moore family!”

Furious, he threw the phone onto the ground, thus attracting the attention of others in the cafe.

A waitress then rushed over to our seat and asked in a timid voice, “Sir, i-is there anything that I can help you with?”

“Get out of my face!” he yelled angrily.

To prevent things from exacerbating, I turned toward the waitress and said with a smile, “Sorry to have troubled you! Everything’s fine here.”

With that, the waitress walked away quietly. “I’m gonna kill the two of them!” John sprang up from his seat and was about to head out, but I managed to stop him.

After regaining my composure, I turned to him and explained, “The Moore family is backed up by the mob. If I could get rid of them that easily, I would’ve done it myself months ago.”

After hearing my statement, he sat back down and looked at me, asking. “What do you want to do then?”

I went quiet for a while before saying, “Bro, you have to help me!” It was the first time that I had addressed him in such a way instead of his name since he moved to R Province.

He was stunned in place, unable to believe what he had just heard. “Letty, what did you just call me?” An elated expression started creeping onto his face.

“Bro!” I uttered while looking him in the eye. “Bro, you’re the only help I can get. No matter what happened in the past, we’re still each other’s only family, so please help me. The Moore family must be punished for what they did,” I added.

John stared at me vacuously like a little kid. “Okay, so what do you want to do?” he asked after nodding his head.

“Just get this video to Rebecca without exposing our identity. I want her to live in constant paranoia,” I replied. As the popular saying goes, torture a man’s heart rather than sever his body. We’ll take our time tearing her heart apart bit by bit.

He nodded and answered, “Okay!”

Since he was a computer expert, I had no qualms letting him handle the whole thing. Relaxed, I took a sip of my coffee.

“Does Ashton know about this?” asked John after he had suppressed his anger.

I lowered my gaze and nodded.

“So what do you have in mind going forward?” he continued asking while signaling the waitress to refill my coffee.

“Can you guarantee your own safety while you infiltrate Zachary’s company?” I answered with another question of my own.

He was stupefied in place for a bit before asking in a gravitas manner, “Letty, you plan to involve Zachary in this as well?”
