When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1819

Looking at the current situation, Ashton seemed to have won a lot of support in the company through Nathaniel’s blackmailing, which could be considered a blessing in disguise.

A faint smile played on Nathaniel’s lips as he threw a question back at the two condescending old men. “What are you trying to say?”

Although he maintained a calm demeanor without making a fuss, the chilling aura he was exuding seeped silently into the bones of every person in the room.

As soon as he spoke, the few people who had been aggressively demanding him to hand over power immediately stopped talking.

No one dared to be the first to speak up.

Right then, a sharp voice of a woman rang out. “Mr. Warner and Mr. Chadwick were merely speaking the truth. You can go ahead and indulge yourself in romantic bliss, but don’t delay the group’s progress.”

It was then that I noticed the only other woman at the table. She was the perfect embodiment of an ice queen, with attractive features and a far more imposing aura than Freja. Her dark-red lips gave her the impression of a femme fatale.

She shot me a cold look when she caught me staring at her, but then she shifted her gaze away immediately afterward.

Nathaniel seemed fazed by her words, judging by his lips curling into a mocking smile. “Okay. I accept all your opinions. I’ll spend more time on the group’s affairs in the future.”

Everyone fell silent, looking dubious but making no move to reply.

Seeing the lack of response, Nathaniel leaned back in his chair and crossed his arms in apparent nonchalance as he said, “Let’s discuss your thoughts on venturing into the Chanaean market.”

Hearing this, Desmond Henley, who had remained silent while sitting next to Nathaniel, cleared his throat. “Let me say a few words. I think that the risks are too high alongside great uncertainty. The Chanaean police are far stricter than those in any other country. We’ll lose everything should things go wrong, so it’s not advisable to take risks.”

Vincent also voiced his agreement, “We joined the group back then on the premise that we won’t venture into the domestic market. We should be content ourselves with earning money from foreigners and having peaceful lives. Don’t leave us nowhere to turn to in the future.”
