When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 332
I nodded, confidently staring him down. “You have every reason to do so!”
His eyes narrowed into a livid re. “If you believed what she said, then why didn’t you stab me
instead?”
“You weren’t there at that time—but she was!” I spat the words boldly, challenging his indifferent stare
with my own fearless one.
“Huh!” He snorted.
It was sudden and cold. He dropped my hand immediately, looking at me with a grey face of
disappointment. “Have you ever trusted me? No wait, I should ask you if you even love me, Scarlett?”
ncing at him, the thoughts ruffled in my head. Have I ever loved him? I didn’t know anymore. I
couldn’t tell if what I felt for him was even love.
He stared at me for the longest time. There was some kind of deep and intense emotion lingering in his
eyes as he waited for my answer.
Then, he snorted softly at himself as if he already knew my answer. He stood and said coldly to me,
“You should head back. Before Reba gets out of surgery, it’s best that you stay home and not go out
recklessly. The Moore family can’t do anything to you for the time being, not while I’m around. So just
go home.”
I said coldly, “It’s alright. I’ll take responsibility for my own actions, so whatever punishment the Moore
family decides is between me and them. It doesn’t concern you at all.”
He watched me without speaking. The indifference in his darkened eyes was enough to suffocate
everyone around us.
Not long after, Cameron and Zachary dashed in. Anxiety overwhelmed Cameron’s bulging red eyes.
When they saw Ashton, they rushed over and frantically asked, “How is Reba? Is she okay?”

Ashton spoke with a deep solemn voice, “She’s still in the ER.”
With a steadyposure, Zachary asked Ashton for the name of the perpetrator that hurt Reba.
Though calm, a murderous air radiated from Zachary. It made the hairs on my fingers stand straighter.
Despite this, I approached the man and announced, “I did it!”
Zachary looked at me with a pair of narrowed, bloodthirsty eyes. A murderous growl sounded as he
threatened me, “Ms. Stovall. You’d better pray that Reba is fine, else I’ll have your life to make up
for hers.”
After hearing my confession, Cameron jumped at me with lethal w-like fingers. Ashton rushed before
me, blocking her attack. He warned them, “Best save the confrontation until after your daughter
awakes, Ms. Anderson. If Scarlett hasmitted a crime, thew will punish her justly. There’s no
need for the two of you to rush her punishment.”
Still seething with anger, Cameron red viciously at me.
Then, the ER doors suddenly opened. A nurse appeared and called out, “Where are the patient’s family
members? She needs a blood transfusion. We’ll need to run some tests on you, in case our blood bank
doesn’t have enough of her blood type.”
Cameron and Zachary quickly trailed after the doctor for their blood tests. They returned soon after.
We waited outside the ER for a long time. Cameron paced back and forth anxiously, asionally
throwing nasty res my way.
When the ER doors opened again, the nurse from earlier came out. She frowned at Cameron and
Zachary before asking, “Are you two really the patient’s blood-rted family?”
The two were taken aback for a moment, unsure of what the nurse was hinting at. “Yes, we’re her
parents. What’s the matter with her?”
The nurse’s eyes scanned the two of them. She exined in a puzzled manner, “It’s impossible for a
couple with blood type A and O to give birth to a child with type B blood. Could something be wrong
with the test?”
Cameron and Zachary’s faces paled to a stark chalk-white. They stared wide-eyed at the nurse. “What
are you talking about? We’re not blood rted?”
The nurse stiffened in hesitation. She looked at the two and assured, “Don’t panic. Perhaps it’s just an
issue with our test. Now, the patient needs two hundreds of blood and there’s an insufficient amount
in our blood bank. Does anyone here have type B blood?”
Ashton looked at the nurse and spoke up, “You can use mine!”
Promptly, the nurse ushered him away to have his blood drawn. Cameron’s face froze grey and still
with confusion at her husband. She kept mumbling, “The DNA test said that she’s our daughter. How
could this be?”
Zachary’s face furrowed into a deep frown. He stilled for a second before consoling Cameron, “Don’t
stress yourself out. Maybe the hospital made a mistake.”
A red shade had already tinged Cameron’s panicked face. She nodded at him, repeating over and over
again that Reba was their daughter, that there was no way she wouldn’t be able to recognize her
own biological daughter.
I pondered at the scene before me. What a dramatic irony. If Reba, the daughter they have
suddenly reunited with, isn’t blood-rted to Cameron… then where is her biological daughter?
Cameron had dirtied her hands doing many unspeakable things for Reba’s sake. It would be pitiful if
Reba wasn’t actually her biological daughter.
Ashton returned shortly after. Seeing that I still sat motionless in the same chair, he approached my
side and hugged me. “Everything will be okay. The doctor said she’s not in a life-threatening state.”
He was clearly trying tofort me. I pursed my lips, not saying anything more.
About half an hourter, Jared and Joe arrived. It seemed like they were all up to date with Reba’s
current situation.
Joe shot a threatening look at me, his face was tainted with gloom but he didn’t say a word. Maybe it
was because of Ashton’s presence that Joe refrained from doing anything more.
On the other hand, Jared raised a brow at Ashton. “There’s some time till the surgery’s over. Care to
join me for a smoke?”
Ashton nced at him and nodded. Then, they left together for the stairway.
Cameron and Zachery were lost in a temporary daze. They were still hung up on the nurse’s earlier
conversation about theirs and Reba’s ipatible blood types.
