When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1559

When I flipped to the next page, a notice regarding the change in the company’s personnel caught my eye.

I proceeded to read it out loud, “As decided by the company’s higher-ups, Ms. Scarlett Stovall has been appointed as the president of Fuller Corporation. This change is effective immediately.”

Upon closer inspection, I realized that this notice was released one week ago.

Doesn’t this mean that it was published two days before we crafted the plan to seek out Tiffany’s headquarters?

Immediately, I looked at Ashton with suspicion. To my surprise, he already had his affectionate gaze fixated on me. “We’ve been married for so many years; why are you still looking at me like that?” Ashton asked with a smile.

“I wouldn’t get tired of looking at you,” I replied. When he heard my reply, Ashton’s smile broadened. After a few moments of playful banter, he finally explained, “I anticipated that Tiffany would take advantage of the situation when we made our move. Hence, I made this change in advance and froze all assets. Right now, the entirety of Fuller Corporation and all of the investments Tiffany has made to Fuller Corporation belongs to you.”

I glanced at the file in my hands and nodded. “Doesn’t this mean that I’m rolling in dough now?”

Yet, I couldn’t find it in myself to rejoice. Right now, money and materialistic assets weren’t the things I valued the most. Instead, I wanted to watch my children grow up in a safe environment and spend the rest of my life by Ashton’s side.

“I suppose you can put it that way,” Ashton replied.

“Wow!” I exclaimed in mock surprise before placing the document back on the table. “Now that I know what it feels like to be wealthy, where are the documents that you need me to sign? Why don’t you hand them to me? You don’t have to inform me of every little thing. I’m letting you take charge of this.”

After all, he had transferred the equity to me in order to trap Tiffany. Now that things were settled, Ashton must have shown me these files because he needed my signature to regain ownership of the shares. This way, Ashton would have the eligibility to sign some important documents.

Although Ashton must have given me these files out of respect, he had always been the one who handled the business aspects of our relationship. Hence, this entire ordeal felt unnecessary.
