When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 365

Chapter 365

I looked at her dainty features for a minute or two but still failed to recall when and where I had ever met this girl.

The girl giggled at my confusion. “Ms. Stovall, did you forget? We just met. My name is Yvonne Wilde. You and Mr. Stovall saved me at the Imperial Hotel.”

I paused for a second and finally remembered. I asked in confusion, “You’re from J City too?”

She nodded and smiled. “Yep. I’m from S County, but I study in K City.”

After a pause, she said awkwardly, “I’m not from a very well-off family, you see. My parents managed to send me to high school but they couldn’t afford to send me to college after that. That’s why I had to work the night shift at Imperial Hotel to get enough money. I ended up getting mistreated because I wouldn’t leave with a client. Thankfully you and Mr. Stovall saved

me!”

I nodded in acknowledgment. I was never a sociable person, so I didn’t know how to carry on the conversation from there and fell silent.

She seemed to enjoy talking to me nonetheless and smiled when she saw the book I was reading. “Ms. Stovall, do you like The Hunchback of Notre Dame as well? I just read it a couple of days ago.”

I nodded in response and paused before asking, “The New Year is in a couple of days. Why didn’t you choose to work a couple more shifts in K City before going back?”

“Mr. Stovall arranged some shifts for me in J City so I can work closer to home and return at the end of the month,” she said with a smile. She seemed happy just talking about John.

I nodded but remembered that John didn’t seem to have any businesses in J City. What shifts could he have given her?

Out of curiosity, I asked, “What shifts did he arrange for you?”

“I study accounting, so he contacted an audit company for me called Harrison Credit. They only started growing these past few years. They have plenty of work that needs to be done since it’s the end of the year, so I can also get commission on top of my salary.”

She smiled and asked me, “Ms. Stovall, is Mr. Stovall also going back to J City for the New Year?”

Could it be this girl have a crush on John?

I shook my head. “I’m not sure. He’s probably staying in K City.”

She murmured softly, “He said he was going to J City, though…”

I didn’t ask any more questions. It was almost time for my flight anyway, so I said goodbye to her and got on the plane.

Jackson was already waiting for me at the airport. Once we got in the car, he started nagging at me

“Can you turn off your phone the next time you’re doing that stuff with Ashton? It made me seem like some sort of pervert.”
