When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 559

“I was waiting for you!”

“But I’m not going to Fuller Corporation,” I uttered in surprise.

“I know,” he knowingly replied. Walking towards me, he explained, “But I can drop you off at the hospital before heading to my office since it’s along the way.”

“I can drive myself there. It isn’t that far away anyway!”

“I don’t think it’s safe for you since it’s snowing heavily outside,” he insisted.

Determined to send me there, he left no room for argument.

As such, I followed him out helplessly. Oh well, I’m not up to anything shady either.

After Ashton pulled up to the hospital’s entrance, he retrieved a few boxes of tonic from the car boot.

I raised my brows in astonishment. “When did you prepare them?”

He cheekily revealed, “I requested for Joseph to do this for me last night.”

From his actions, I could tell that he wanted to accompany me to visit Cameron.

I paused for a moment, then trailed behind him. A warm fuzzy sensation bubbled within me. His meticulous gesture touched my heart, but my response did not seem to portray so.

Six hours had passed since Cameron was out of the surgery room, and her anaesthesia had already worn off.

Nonetheless, as a patient who had been under the knife, she still required rest for the next few days.

Zachary, who stayed by her side the whole time, was sleeping in the corner of the room.

On the other hand, Cameron was lying in bed, staring blankly at the ceiling as there was nothing for her to do.

When she heard footsteps, she turned to see Ashton and me together.

Stunned, she eagerly tapped her bed frame repeatedly to wake Zachary up. With a bright smile, she exclaimed, “Both of you came!”

The commotion woke Zachary up. Sitting up, he stared at us in a daze. Then, he got to his feet and sleepily commented, “It’s freezing outside, and it’s akin to a snowstorm out there. You didn’t have to come.”

Ashton smiled while placing the tonics he prepared on the bedside table. “It’s not that cold while it’s still snowing,” he replied.

Observing how exhausted Zachary seemed, he continued, “Mr. Moore, have you eaten breakfast?”

The older man shook his head in response. “Nope.”

Stretching his back, he grumbled, “Ah, I’m growing old. My back is starting to ache already.”

That made Cameron felt bad. Looking at him with concern, she persuaded, “I’m fine now. Go home and get some rest in the meantime. Anyway, the caregiver will be here soon, and if I have any problems, she will take care of it.”

Unconvinced, Zachary asserted, “That won’t do. I will feel more at ease by your side.”

“You are so old, yet you behave like a child,” Cameron could only helplessly mumble under her breath.

At the same time, I caught sight of Ashton sending a message to Joseph. He must be busy with work.

With that thought, I tugged on his clothes and whispered, “You can get going to your office. I will be alright to stay here alone.”
