When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 692

I stayed silent, as I felt there was no need to argue with a psychopath.

Suddenly, I received a phone call from Nora. “Where did you go, woman? Are you not worried about me? I even fought for you!”

“How are you?” I asked, but I wasn’t worried because Ashton had signaled Joseph to take care of it, so she wouldn’t be mistreated.

The woman clicked her tongue. “I’m at the hospital, but it’s no biggie. That b*tch scratched my face, and I’m not done with her.”

I sighed. “Nora, thank you. I’ll visit you tomorrow and treat you to something delicious.”

Nora sighed and asked, “That’s not it! Why are you treating Ashton like a stranger? He’s your husband! Did he do anything you can’t accept? Or is it you guys never loved each other? Other married couples wouldn’t be like you guys even though they aren’t affectionate towards each other.”

I pursed my lips. “Nothing. There’s nothing left between us. We were divorced.”

“Scarlett, why are you pushing him away?” She was getting a little agitated while my patience was running thin. “I don’t love him anymore.”

Before she could say anything, I quickly end the conversation. “Nora, I have some matters to attend to now. Rest well, and I’ll visit you tomorrow.”

With that, I hung up. Sensing a gaze on me, I raised my head and saw that Armond was staring at me.

I knitted my brows in response. “Mr. Murphy, you’re still driving.” Eyes on the road, Mister.

He withdrew his gaze and said indifferently, “I’m curious too. Why are you hiding from Ashton?”

I pursed my lips. “When did Mr. Murphy become someone who enjoys digging into other people’s private business?”

He shrugged and smiled faintly. “I’m just curious. Right! We have to go to K City after this project. Don’t you forget about our promise in Venria.”

Listening to him mentioning the promise, I was stunned for a moment. “Got it!” He wanted the sandalwood box that Grandma has.

When we arrived at the Oasis Hotel, Armond parked the car at the entrance and took me to a restaurant nearby for dinner.

Then we went to the bidding hall. The wide hall was crowded with people, and some business partners came to greet Armond.

Armond asked me to find a quiet place and make some changes to the proposal, at least to the point of not bringing shame to the Murphy Corporation.

There was a lounge in the hotel. Sitting on the couch, I went through the proposal and my head started hurting. Apart from not understanding the overall situation, the proposal was way too rushed.
