When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1547

After knowing that the boy did not have any bad intentions, Gregory finally stepped aside.

Audrey handed him the lollipop again with a cheerful smile. “Thank you so much! Now you can eat the candy! This is my favorite candy! It’s really yummy!”

This time, the boy did not reject and took it at once.

Audrey’s smile widened as the boy held the lollipop in his hand.

At the same time, Ashton made a decision and announced, “Let all of them stay and give them financial aid under Madam’s name till they grow up.

Ashton turned to look at Gregory and instructed, “Gregory, bring your sister over here.”

When both of them were in front of Ashton, Gregory said respectfully, “Daddy, I’ve brought Audrey back.”

“Good,” Ashton nodded and turned to look at Audrey. “Next time, never ever approach any strangers without your Mommy and my permission. Can you promise me that?” Ashton asked sternly.

There was only the usual intimidating indifference on his cold, expressionless face.

Audrey could sense the displeasure in Ashton’s tone. Instead of refuting as usual, she nodded obediently and replied softly, “Alright, Daddy.”

“Let’s go home now,” Ashton said again.

Next, he turned to face us and prepared to leave, letting both Gregory and Audrey walk in front of him.

Gregory obeyed Ashton’s instructions as usual and stepped out at once, with Audrey trailing closely behind him.

After walking forward for two steps, Audrey came to a stop abruptly. She turned to look at the little boy and was reluctant to move forward.

Ashton followed her gaze and knew at once about what was playing in her mind. After pondering for a while, he lowered his head and asked her, “You want to bring him home as well?”

Pouting her lips, her forehead creased into a frown as she gazed at the boy with a look of sympathy. She gulped and said softly, “He’s so thin. If he continues to stay here, he will starve. Aunt Emma ever mentioned that the children in the orphanage are the most pitiful. I just feel like helping him…”

“I’m giving you two options. If you choose to go home with me, I will raise you well and bear the cost of your education fee. In return, you will need to attend classes together with my daughter and stay by her side all the time, putting her safety as the top priority. If you choose to continue staying here, Fuller Corporation will provide you financial aid, but you will be on your own. Think about it and make your choice. The final decision lies in your own hands.”

Ashton remained indifferent as usual and did not soften at all although he was facing a child.

Within seconds, the boy made his choice and replied firmly, “I choose to go back with you.”

Before Ashton gave his instruction, the boy had approached Audrey. Imitating Joseph, he lowered his head and bent his body as he stretched out his hand to lead the way. “Miss, please walk in the front.”

In a blink of an eye, Audrey’s face brightened up as she trotted out to catch up with Gregory.

Meanwhile, the boy was fully aware of his status and trailed behind them obediently.

Tucking both of his hands in the pocket, John pondered as he gazed at the boy’s figure. So they just let the boy follow them home without a second thought? They are willing to take the risk and raise him even if they don’t have any clue about his background?
