When There Is Nothing Left But Love

Chapter 1115

We watched them as they walked into the nearest elevator. It was only when Ashton pinched myshoulders that I came back to my senses. He then brought me out of the hospital.

In the car, Emery tried to look for an opportunity to speak again.

“Wasn’t that Cameron’s son? The one who just took over their family business?”

Even though Emery grew up in K City, she was not familiar with the people here. Moreover, Nick hadjust returned to K City. Hence, even though she was very well-informed, she had difficulty matchingpeople’s faces to their names.

I nodded. “Hmm, he could be considered my brother too.”

“You have quite a lot of family members, don’t you?” Emery grumbled before she went on to changethe topic. “But this Nick looks rather decent, and his wife is classy too. One of these days, he willdefinitely surpass his father’s achievements.”

“That is definitely going to happen.” I had always felt that Nick was very capable as he took charge ofthe company since he was quite young. After seeing his current state earlier on, that feeling becamestronger than ever. “Very few people can manage such a large family business at his age.”

It had been some time since Nick took over the Harrisons. The last time I saw Cameron and Zachary,they did not complain about him, so he must have been doing well.

Emery snorted and pursed her lips. Then, she pointed her chin toward the driver’s seat and said, “Ohlook, we have one right here.”

Baffled, I looked in that direction. From my position, all I could see was Ashton’s aloof back view.

Indeed, Ashton was more outstanding than Nick. When he took over Fuller Corporation, he was a lotyounger than Nick was. Through the decision of bringing Fuller Corporation to K City, he had provedhimself to be a rare business talent.

However, there were good and bad sides to everything. All people saw was that Ashton acquired sucha high position and immense wealth at this age, but they did not see his hard work and how hepractically lived in the office. There was nothing he could do about it, even when he was going throughsomething as life-changing as procreation.

I could not help but sigh as melancholy emerged on my face. Ashton is not a machine, so how muchlonger can he last like this?

While I was staring into thin air, Emery suddenly spoke to Ashton, “Ashton, based on your expressionearlier, you’re uninterested in collaborating with Nick, am I right?”

Is that so? Why did I not see that?

But he invited Nick to his office. Wasn’t that an opportunity?

I regained my composure and looked at Ashton curiously. Together with Emery, I waited for hisresponse.

He focused on driving and gave a curt reply, “I’m considering it.”

“What is there to consider? You should save the benefits for your own family. Isn’t Nick Scarlett’sbrother? Since that’s the case, their company is definitely more trustworthy than other companies outthere. Moreover, they have other businesses here in K City. If you give him some benefits now, you willhave endless profits in the future. Work together as a family, and you’ll be the most powerful team in KCity.” Emery analyzed it very well, almost as if she were part of the industry too.

However, Ashton merely replied coldly, “Mmhmm.”

His curt reply stopped Emery from continuing the conversation, and it infuriated her so much that shecrossed her arms in front of her chest. If not for me signaling at her, she probably would have foughtwith Ashton there and then in the car.

We fell into silence once again. After Ashton dropped us at the villa entrance, he went back to theoffice.

We only entered the house when we saw his car vanish around the corner.

As we walked on the cobblestone path leading to the villa, we continued with the previous topic. Ofcourse, it was Emery who initiated it.

“Ashton’s attitude is rather suspicious. He seems to be deliberately avoiding the topic of working withthe Harrisons. Do you know what he has been working on recently?” Emery had some economicknowledge and was particularly interested in studying the psychology of key business leaders.
