When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 127

Chapter 127

The man then paused for a moment before continuing, “Here’s a piece of advice, Scarlett. Some things aren’t worth fighting for.”

“What do you mean by that?” I felt like I had fallen into a bottomless pit with no hope of getting out.

“I gotta go.” He then hung up on me, leaving me to stare blankly at the huge crowd outside the building.

My phone started ringing all of a sudden, and I saw that it was Macy calling. “Where are you?”

“Outside the office building!”

“Got it, stay where you are! I’ll come and get you!”

Macy hung up after saying that, and I saw her appear at the entrance of the building about fifteen minutes later.

I quickly gave her a call and said, “Look behind you!”

She turned around and ran up to me when she saw my car. “Let’s discuss this back at my place.”

We arrived at Glenwood Apartments shortly after.

“What on earth is going on with HiTech?” She asked with a serious look on her face.

I tried my best to explain, “Grandpa handed HiTech over to me a year ago. Though I’m not in charge of it personally, most of its official documents are signed under my name.”

She froze. “So… You’re gonna be the one to take the fall for what happened to HiTech?”

I nodded. “On top of that, there’s also some issues with the audit handled by AC Credit and Harrison Credit. A discrepancy in the data reported by both companies. The Bureau of Industry and Commerce is investigating the matter as we speak. If this isn’t handled well, Fuller Corporation’s stock market will plummet, and the company will face bankruptcy.”

Macy paced about anxiously as she said, “To hell with Fuller Corporation! You should be more worried about yourself right now! The media is pinning everything on you, and some of the stockholders can be very extreme. As for the case with HiTech, you might be looking at a very heavy fine here. Well… Ashton should be able to help you take care of all of this, but things are surely going to be tough for you after this!”

I held my head between my knees as I tried to calm myself down. “Ashton has gotten into an accident and is currently in the ER.”

Her jaw dropped in shock. “What the… Why is everything happening all at once?”
