When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 530

“Are you still there, Scarlett?” Emery asked on the other side of the line.

“Yes.” After a pause, I asked, “Where are you going for your honeymoon?”

She thought about it and said, “I had a talk with Hunter, and we decided to go to the Miralaea for our honeymoon. The weather is nice over there.”

There was a noise coming from the bedroom, so I quickly said, “Have a safe flight then. I think Summer is up, so I have to go and check on her.”

We said our goodbyes and hung up.

Summer was awake. She was curled up under the blanket, and she still appeared to be weak. When she saw me, she said softly, “Mommy, I’m thirsty.”

I poured her a glass of water and brought it to her lips. I placed my hand on her forehead to check her temperature and found that the fever had subsided.

“Mommy.” Seeing that I was lost in thought, Summer called out to me and passed me the cup.

I came around and took the cup from her hand.

Then, I pulled the blanket up to her chin and asked, “Do you want to sleep for a little while more?”

Summer shook her head. “I don’t want to sleep anymore. Did Mr. Crest say that I can get out of bed?”

I smiled faintly and said, “Of course, you can.”

With that, she threw the blanket off her and got out of bed. Although her fever had subsided, she still seemed a little tired.

It had stopped snowing. Standing by the window, I stared at the snow-covered ground and was lost in thought.

What was the exchange between Ashton and Marcus? It must have been something that triggered both men to be in a fight.

Ashton had always been able to keep his emotions under control, and he wouldn’t get angry easily.

An hour later, I received a call from Camelia. “Let’s have a talk, Scarlett.”

I could tell from her tone that she was anxious. “Okay.”

“Are you free to go out?”

I cast a glance at Summer. She was lying on the sofa, and she was about to fall asleep.

“I’m afraid not.”

There was a pause before she said, “Ashton bought most of the White Corporation’s shares at a high price. Together with the fake news of White Corporation’s shares falling, the rumours about the three of you, and him cooperating with other investment companies to crush White Corporation. Why is he so ruthless?”

I know nothing much about the stock market. But from what Camelia had said, it seemed to have reached a critical stage.
