When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 393
Furrowing my brows, I sighed at his words as I understood what he meant.
“I know. I…”
“In that case, just go along with my ns.”
“I want to take her on a trip to R Province!” I insisted while ring back at him.
“With who?” he put down his cutlery with a dispassionate expression.
“John!”
He pursed his lips in displeasure. “When was it decided?”
“Before the new year!” I didn’t know that something had happened to Macy back then.
“Were you not nning to tell me about this?” He was upset.
I pinched my forehead in a bid to relieve my headache and snapped, “Don’t you already know now?”
Having lost my appetite, I put down my cutlery and headed to the study.
The White Corporation’s AI project was still my responsibility. As they would beunching a new
product after the new year, work for it would begin once the holidays ended.
However, I hardly had any mood to go on reading. Although I wasn’t sleepy, my head was still aching
from staying up the whole night.
Leaning by the door, Ashton’s gaze was cold but he didn’t look angry.
I was annoyed by his stare and snapped, “What is it?”
He raised his eyebrow. “Summer is back.”
Caught by surprise, I dropped what I was doing and headed out of the study. While he was blocking the
door, he kissed me.
It took a while before he let me go and led me downstairs.

Jackson was sitting in the living hall ying with Summer, while John and Louis were also present.
John wasn’t good with children. Hence, he preferred to keep his distance from them, especially since
Summer was still an infant—unlike a one or two-year-old where he could y with them without having
to worry about hurting them.
However, watching Jackson carry Summer, he would asionally point out what Jackson was doing
wrong.
Peeved, Jackson stuffed Summer into his arms and snarled, “Since you think you’re so smart, why
don’t you carry her!”
The moment he held Summer, John didn’t dare move a muscle. Despite hisrge frame, he carried
Summer in a careful manner.
As John was stiff as a rock, Summer fiddled with his luxury watch curiously and not minding the fact
that she was hardly familiar with him.
When he saw Ashton and I walk down the stairs, he heaved a sigh of relief and quickly remarked, “Stop
dilly-dallying and carry your precious daughter.”
As Ashton had taken care of Summer for a long time, he was experienced at handling her despite the
lack of instruction.
When he received Summer from John, he instinctively carried her in his arms.
Jackson nced at John in contempt. “Someone like you won’t even know how to take care of his own
child. Knowing nothing, how do you expect any girl to fall for you?”
John retorted, “I’m sure you know everything while I know nothing. But, aren’t you still single despite
being almost thirty?”
Jackson sneered, “And you’re almost a step away from your grave? Do you only n to find someone
when you’re dead? Do you think just wagging that tongue of yours is enough?”
Those two men were being extremely childish.
Sitting beside Uncle Louis, I made him some tea. When he saw how busy I was, he frowned. “Didn’t
you hire a nanny?”
“I did. But it’s her day off today,” I replied with a smile. “Ashton and I prefer some privacy. Hence, the
nanny will only be here whenever Summer needs to be cared for. Or else, Ashton and I would prefer to
be alone at home.”
Louis nodded. ncing at Ashton inquisitively, he asked, “I heard you found a treasure recently. Aren’t
you going to show it to me?”
Ashton raised his eyebrow and passed Summer to Jackson. After that, both men headed to the study
as they obviously had something to discuss.
When I looked in John’s direction, I was surprised to see that he was observing Summer intently.
“You’re already thirty-five. Aren’t you nning to find a partner to settle down?”
When he turned to look at me, Jackson cleared his throat and spoke up. “How can any girl be
interested in someone who has no substance behind those good looks?”
“What do you care?” John shot him a re before replying, “What’s the point of getting married? I’m
happy just having you and Summer by my side.”
“Sheesh!” Jackson rolled his eyes. “Why do you need to dramatize having a crush? Give it a few more
years and you will turn into a statue just from waiting.”
“It’s none of your business.” John stared daggers at him. “Don’t you n to take Summer out?”
Sensing that John was about to lose his temper, Jackson was sensitive enough to carry Summer into
the garden to y.
As the atmosphere calmed down, I looked at John and asked, “Has Uncle Louis found anything?”
Pursing his lips, his expression grew serious. “The report is out and seems to indicate that man may
not have touched you.”
I furrowed my eyebrows. “Didn’t touch me? Then why…” Did he leave those things in the room on
purpose?
“There were no traces of your DNA there and we have run aparison. The police have two theories.
First, the owner is an extremely powerful and mysterious person where his DNA information is hard to
obtain. Second, that person may be dead, which is why they can’t find a match too.”
I frowned. “Can they retrieve it from the dead?”
“Within a specific timeframe, they are able to obtain it with certain scientific methods.”
