In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 554

Ashton nodded and went into the kitchen, leaving me alone with Zachary.

Despite us being father and daughter, we didn’t really have much to talk about.

“This bracelet looks great on you,” he said after a brief pause when he noticed the bracelet on my hand.

“Thanks. Ashton’s assistant bought it during his business trip in Venria,” I replied.

He simply nodded and kept quiet after that.

Summer looked up at us and asked, “What day is today?”

“It’s New Year’s Eve, the last day of the year,” Zachary replied with a gentle look in his eyes.

“Does that mean we have to celebrate it with the whole family?”

Zachary nodded.

Turning toward me, Summer asked, “Why aren’t Grandpa and Uncle John here, Mommy?”

“They’re a little busy. Aunt Hannah just had a baby recently and has to stay home for quite a while, so they’ll celebrate it at home instead,” I said with a faint smile after a short pause.

“When will we be able to go see the baby?”

Summer was a curious child and asked a lot of questions, but Zachary answered them all patiently anyway. I decided to go help out with the tacos and joined the others in the kitchen.

“Do you know how to make tacos?” Ashton asked when he saw me come in.

I nodded at him and washed my hands before helping him out. “My grandma taught me how to do it when I was little.”

“Didn’t you grow up in the South? Not many people from the South know how to make tacos, even in the older generations. My mom didn’t know how to make them either,” Sally said when she heard that.

“Maybe it’s because my grandma has been to a lot of places. She’d make tons of them every year because she prefers Northern cuisine.”

Sally chuckled. “Haha, I get this feeling that she’s a Northerner born in the body of a Southerner!”

“I don’t think she’s ever told me about her past, though. So all my memories of her are from our life in R Province.”

Cameron walked up to me and asked, “Have you ever wondered how your grandma got to know Old Mr. Fuller and why she trusted him enough to entrust him with you? Has he ever told you how they got to know each other?”
