When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 442

My mind went completely blank. I gave it a thought and said, “We’ll be back every now and then. Perhaps we’ll make a trip back during the next festive season.”

Michael smiled when he heard that. “Then, Daddy and I will be waiting for you and Summer to come back to R Province to celebrate the festive seasons!”

For a moment, I was flustered because I almost forgot there was another joyous occasion around the corner. Seconds later, I nodded and said, “Summer and I will be back soon.”

The children were equally thrilled when they heard my words of assurance.

On the other hand, Colin, who had been quiet all this while, broke the silence and queried, “Are you going to K City?”

Shaking my head, I stated, “Not for the time being.”

I never had the chance to bring Summer back to J City when she was an infant. Now that she was slightly older, I wanted to bring her back to visit Macy. I felt quite lost because I never mentioned Macy over the years.

Summer snuggled in my arms after we bade farewell over the meal and made our way home. She was melancholic because we would be leaving soon.

After I tucked her in, I called Ashton.

The moment he picked up the call, his hoarse and seductive voice could be heard. “I was about to call you, yet you got ahead of me. It’s almost like our thoughts are connected.”

I responded with a smile and looked out the window. Staring at the bright moon, I said, “I just resigned.”

“Well, it was inevitable since staying at that hotel would be a waste of your talent,” he replied nonchalantly as though he had been anticipating my departure.

I smiled, wondering whether his words counted as a compliment.

Once again, he broke the silence and asked in a gentle tone, “Where are you planning to go?”

“I haven’t made up my mind.” R Province might have much to offer. However, when I took Summer’s future into consideration, I thought she deserved better things in life.

“No matter where you’re going, I’ll always have your back. Don’t forget I consider Summer as my daughter,” he asserted in a calm and collected manner.

I was dazed for a moment before I nodded. “I’ll keep that in mind.”

Compared to the way we interacted with one another in the past, I enjoyed our current relationship more. Now, he wouldn’t make the call on my behalf and instead, he would simply provide his opinion and guidance.

After I hung up the call, I purchased the air tickets to J City. It took me an hour to reach the central business district to purchase the tickets because there wasn’t any airport in R Province.
