In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 425

They were joined by a few local wealthy businessmen.

Louis arranged for someone to run a check on the county mayor and dismissed the rest.

He glanced at me and sighed, “Scarlett, you’ve gotten thinner.”

I smiled faintly. “Are you hungry? Why don’t you come over for dinner? You can visit Summer as well.”

He chuckled, “I thought you would never ask! I’ll be more than willing to join you.”

I gave a vague smile. “I hope the food would be to your liking!”

He frowned. “Scarlett, what are you talking about? You are registered under the Stovall family register, so you’re my daughter. Since when did our relationship distance to this extent?”

And so I brought him to my house.

Earlier, I had asked Colin to help pick Summer up. When Louis and I arrived, Colin and Summer were already home.

Summer lifted her head and stared at Louis. “Uncle, I’ve seen you on Mommy’s phone before.”

Louis and I were bewildered by her remark. “Do you recognize me then?”

Summer nodded. “Yes, you catch bad guys.”

I quickly realized that she probably saw Louis in the news because, at times, I would pay special attention to K City’s happenings when I watched the evening news, so naturally, Louis would appear then.

Summer had an excellent memory, so it wasn’t unusual for her to remember him.

Holding on to Summer, I said, “Summer, let’s be polite and call grandpa.”

Summer lifted her head again to look at Louis. “Grandpa, could you help me catch bad guys?”

Louis bent down slightly and said, “Who is the bad guy you need me to catch?”

Summer thought about it for a while and answered, “The bad guy in Mr. Johnson’s hotel always scolds my mommy. She also calls me a bastard.”

Children were pure in nature. I had brought Summer to the hotel for housekeeping before because I was worried about leaving her alone at home. We would occasionally bump into Joyce, and she would even curse at children.

I thought that Summer wouldn’t remember such a minor detail, so I wasn’t expecting her to expose Joyce under such circumstances.

I smiled as I held on to Summer. “Summer, grandpa is here for dinner today, not for work. So catching bad guys would have to wait. I’m going to give you a small task. Why don’t you and Michael bring grandpa to the back and see what he likes and bring those back?”
