When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1491

Only the last possibility remained.

John glanced at me and immediately understood what I meant. His gaze narrowed as he whispered, “Nathaniel Hall?”

I nodded sternly.

Yes, Nathaniel Hall. The man who I couldn’t fathom on first sight as he made my skin creep.

The Hall family never taught their younger generation about love. If Ashton hadn’t found them back then, Nathaniel would be the only successor. Now, Ashton had reunited with the Hall family and even became the leader, taking over Nathaniel’s position.

Under the circumstances, he should be clouded by jealousy.

However, Nathaniel did nothing and disappeared into thin air. He hid in the darkness and waited to reap the benefits from their fight.

“If it’s Nathaniel, what is his purpose?” asked John.

It seemed like Nathaniel had concealed himself well. He hadn’t given himself away. I didn’t really lose my memories, so I managed to relate everything to him.

I shook my head solemnly as I had no idea. “Compared to the other Halls, he’s too low profile.”

Suddenly, my eyes lit up as something occurred to me. “Actually, there’s a way. If we want to know why he doesn’t want fame and fortune, the best way is to force him to accept everything.”

As the saying goes, “One should not impose on others what he himself does not desire.” Still, since it was Nathaniel who broke the rule first, we could give him a taste of his own medicine.

John fell silent for a moment before flashing a mysterious smile. “If I’m not mistaken, you’re not only targeting Nathaniel, right?”

He glanced at the second floor as if something interesting was about to transpire.

I lowered my gaze and grinned.

Kids couldn’t sit still for long. Shortly after, Audrey spotted me standing by the door alongside Joseph. “Mommy!”

She hopped out of Ashton’s lap and came to me. Flinging an arm around my leg, she complained, “Mommy, Greg won’t talk to me!”

I ruffled her hair to comfort her. “Good girl. Your brother loves you, so you should be good and not disturb him when he’s busy, get it?”

Audrey pouted unhappily, but she still nodded. “Alright. Is he gonna take a long time?”

I didn’t reply to her and held her hand as we walked into the study. Ashton’s brows furrowed together before he quickly returned to his aloof self.

He seems mad at me for taking Audrey’s attention away, but he’s too proud to admit it.

Suddenly, Gregory rose to his feet and shut down the laptop. He returned the laptop to Ashton and uttered, “Thank you, Daddy. I’m done.”
