When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1645

While Rebecca and Ashton were indeed in the photos, the photos had been photoshopped.

They were various photos of Ashton and Rebecca, who had undergone plastic surgery, in different places. I could see that Rebecca was the one initiating the intimacy between them.

It was not the first time I had seen such photos, but the last time I saw it, Rebecca still had her original face.

Hence, I realized what happened right away. Rebecca had gone overseas and used Ashton’s name to trick the gang members before throwing the responsibility to us.

She was right; she had successfully disgusted us.

What ill fate.

Ashton took the photos from my hands, put them back on the table, and pushed them to Lucas. Then, he said in a solemn tone, “I don’t know this woman.”

“You don’t know this woman?” Clearly, Lucas did not think well of his reply. “Are you saying that we’re trying to trick you?”

At the end of the day, the matter started because of us. At this point, regardless of whether Ashton and Rebecca were associated or not, Quince and Lucas had come for Ashton’s influential power. That was something we could not deny.

It was apparent to me from Lucas’ earlier attitude that he wanted something from me too, and I had realized that I had to set things right. Hence, I interrupted, “Calm down, Mr. Lucas, that isn’t what my husband meant. However, since we’re both saying two different things, it has become important for us to find out the authenticity of these photos. Mr. Lucas, you have many talented men with you, so I’m sure you’ll be able to have someone authenticate them, right?”

Although Rebecca’s move in framing us for this was an excellent one, she had forgotten something important. In K City, she was a dead woman. Having a new start with a new face meant that the woman who once had a relationship with Ashton was no longer around.

Both Ashton and I knew what the results of their authentication would be, but letting them do it would convince them better.

Although people like Lucas earned their money through illicit means, they were rather reasonable and strict with their own rules. Even if they were to lose their dignity, they would not fly into a rage when faced with the truth. Hence, I was certain that things would not go out of our control.
