When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1791

Initially, I wanted to get to the bottom of what happened between her and Summer. However, she kept avoiding the topic intentionally. So I decided not to ask further.

After leaving The Jade, I went to Summer’s club.

The servers were all Lucas’ subordinates. They were all dressed in uniforms with bow ties on them. At first glance, they looked out of place. However, they somehow managed to hide their hostility underneath those bow ties. Along with the smiles on the customers’ faces, everything looked surprisingly normal.

Although my arrival had put everyone on edge, they still escorted me to my seat politely. They even served me drinks while I waited for Summer.

Not long after, Summer showed up. “Mommy! What brought you here today?”

Being her usual self, Summer flashed a perfunctory smile.

Due to her decisions made, I was actually worried that it’d be awkward to see her. But she handled herself surprisingly well. In fact, her warm welcome made me feel like nothing had ever happened between us.

I smiled and blurted, “I was only passing by. Then I realized we hadn’t had a meal together for some time now. Audrey and the others are missing you badly. Are you free to come home and have dinner with us?”

She took a short pause and agreed. “Yeah, sure. Shall we go buy some groceries?” she asked sweetly.

“Sure!” I nodded and accompanied her to the biggest mall nearby.

Summer was walking next to me with a cart. While she watched me pick out groceries, she occasionally put snacks for Audrey and the others into the cart.

After picking out everything we needed, we strolled around leisurely. When I thought the time was right, I casually mentioned Emery to her. “I heard from Aunt Emery that the club is doing well. Is there any new plan going forward?”

“Yes, there is,” Summer said calmly. “Our marketing efforts have worked well. Hence, our cash flow has improved by quite a bit. Aunt Emery wants to use the money for investments. She said that by doing so, we’d achieve passive income.”
