    When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 229


    John was adamant that he had overheard something important as he looked at Cameron and said, “I


    won’t keep you any longer, Ms. Anderson.”


    After Cameron and Reba left, John sat beside me and pestered me about the reason behind my


    two-month disappearance.


    Miffed, I couldn’t be bothered to exin to him. Hence, I turned to Marcus and changed the topic. “Let’s


    order some takeaways and go home!”


    Marcus nodded in response. Just as we were heading out of the restaurant, John blocked our path and


    asked, “Scarlet, what’s wrong with you? Do you know how much trouble you’ve caused us just to


    search for you? Someone even…”


    “Mr. Stovall, if you really care about her, I’d advise you to stop pestering her. The hardships she had to


    go through are way tougher than what you can imagine,” said Marcus.


    After grabbing the takeaways, Marcus held my hand and escorted me to the car as he saw that my


    face was getting pale.


    “If you want to badger her to death, then be my guest.” Marcus took a nce at John who was still on


    our tail.


    Ignoring him, John grabbed my hand. “I thought your illness has been cured. Why is it rpsing?”


    asked John.


    He then turned his attention to Marcus and questioned in a cold tone, “What’s going on here? I thought


    she has fully recovered.”


    Perplexed, Marcus looked at me curiously and queried, “You’ve had this illness before?”


    I nodded and said to John, “I don’t want to get into it now. Let me get back home first, okay?”


    Since I didn’t bring my medicine, I had a hard time keeping my emotions in check.


    John nodded and gave Marcus a minatory look. “You don’t need to look at me like that. Ask Ashton if


    you have any questions,” scoffed Marcus.


    Having said that, he quickly drove off, leaving John in the dust.


    Since Marcus was driving at high speed, we were home in no time. After taking my medicine, I looked


    at him and asked, “Are the two of them still in our hands?”


    Marcus was stunned for a while before nodding. “I’ve already ordered some of our guys to keep an eye


    on them.”


    “I’d like to meet them now!” I stated. In order to deal a blow to the Moore family, I must start with


    Reba.


    He pondered for a bit and replied, “Okay!”

    I wasn’t worried about my illness acting up again as I had taken medicine to stabilize my emotions. And


    so, I went straight to the suburbs with Marcus.


    The warehouse was nothing different from my vivid memories of it. Upon seeing it, I reminded myself


    repeatedly not to break down.


    “You don’t have to force yourself. We cane back here some other day.” Marcus stared at me with a


    concerned look on his face.


    I shook my head, then took a deep breath and said, “It’s okay. Let’s just get it over with!”


    When the lights were switched on, I was able to see the interior of the warehouse clearly. The


    warehouse wasn’t that big, and there wererge piles of junk in it.


    Someone had already cleaned up the bloodstains on the floor, and the ss shards were gone too.


    Marcus asked one of the bodyguards to bring me a chair so that I could rest my legs. Shortly after, the


    two people were brought in front of me.


    On the night of the incident, I recalled seeing two men who were wearing hats. However, since both of


    them were in disguise, I only had a vague impression of how they looked like.


    Marcus ordered his men to bring the men closer for me to take a good look at their faces. Surprisingly,


    the two of them didn’t seem like vicious and violent people at all. In fact, both of them looked


    trustworthy and sincere.


    That being said, looks could be deceiving as they were without a doubt the ones who murdered my


    child.


    “Ms. Stovall, this isn’t our fault. We were just following orders. We…”


    The two of them must’ve been tortured for quite a while beforeing here. That’s why they are so


    desperate to be vindicated.


    “Are you that deprived of money?” I chuckled.


    Both of them nodded like little chickens pecking on the ground.


    “Oh, I see,” I murmured nonchntly. “Since you two are just doing things for money, that means you


    guys would do something for me too as long as I pay both of you. Right?” I queried.


    The two of them exchanged nces before turning their gazes toward me and asked tentatively, “What


    do you need us to do?”


    “Just do some acting!” I responded. After taking a look at the surroundings, I calmly said to them, “I


    want you two to act out the incident that night. And after you guys are done, it would nice if each of you


    could give me your confessions as well.


    Upon hearing the second request of mine, their faces immediately turned pale. “Ms. Stovall, we could


    re-enact the scenes for you. As for the confession part, we’ve already been paid. Therefore, we can’t


    expose our client’s identity. That would vite the trust between us,” one of them responded.


    I nodded as I fiddled with my phone out of boredom and said, “Well, if that’s the case, then there’s no


    point for you two to act out the scenes. I assume that both of you have wives and kids, right? How


    about this, I’ll return the favor of what you guys did to me by getting rid of your…”


    Before finishing my statement, I turned to look at Marcus and feigned a smile. “I don’t want to kill


    anyone though, especially kids. Is there anything worse than death that I can put them through?” I


    queried.


    Marcus thought about it for a while before responding, “How about chopping their limbs off or make


    them…”


    “You two are callous b*stards!” Both of them were getting riled up and tried to lunge themselves toward


    us but to no avail as they were pinned down by the bodyguards.


    Although I was livid after hearing what these hypocrites said, I managed to retain my sangfroid before


    uttering, “Oh, so we’re the heartless ones, huh? Said the guys who left the child and me in my belly to


    rot in this abandoned warehouse just for a few hundred thousand. I was about to give birth to my child,


    but you pieces of sh*t tied my legs and blocked his way out. Do you know how he died in the end? He


    was suffocated to death in my belly. The two of you should be grateful that I didn’t ask you to pay me


    back with your children’s lives. So what are you guys whining about?”
