When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 507


    I’ve never touched a cent all over the years.


    However, when Fuller Corporation and White Corporation encountered the same problem, I transferred


    the money to Marcus to return his favor.


    He sneered over the phone. “Scarlett, you’re really ruthless.”


    Ruthless?


    I beg to differ. It had been over four years, so I felt uneasy whenever I thought about how I could repay


    his favor. Back then, he had everything he wanted.


    Right now, bothpanies were in trouble. Ashton had to face some difficulties to resolve the crisis,


    but it was very likely that he would pull through.


    However, White Corporation’s problem was a different matter altogether. It had been a family business


    all along. Benjamin showed no intention of expanding his business back then.


    Now, Marcus was in charge of thepany. He had to be of the same influence and height if he were


    to be Ashton’s rival.


    Hence, Marcus spent two years before White Corporation sessfully became a listedpany. But


    still, it was nothingpared to Fuller Corporation, which had been doing well all along.


    Even though Marcus got a taste of profit from Fuller Corporation a couple of times, after this incident,


    they were almost on the verge of bankruptcy.

    The money was just what Marcus needed to make sure White Corporation stayed afloat in times of


    trouble.


    After hanging up, I felt much more relieved.


    There was no way I could fall asleep in broad daylight. But besides sleeping in this bed, there seemed


    to be nothing else to do.


    I wrapped myself up in a nket and sat up. Right then, a text from Camelia came in.


    The content was simple and direct. She wanted to meet up with me.


    I could guess what she wanted from me. That trip to M Country was a mistake. If we hadn’t met and


    talked amiably, I wouldn’t feel as awkward to meet up now.


    s, we were quite close back then. One could imagine how awkward things would be if we were to


    meet up now.


    I left my phone aside and didn’t reply to her text.


    When Ashton came in, I was lying on the edge of the bed as my mind buzzed with various thoughts.


    I didn’t hear his footsteps.


    It wasn’t until he picked me up that I snapped back to reality. Looking back, I gazed right into his pitch


    dark eyes.


    My voice was hoarse as I croaked out, “What’s wrong?”


    He shed a faint smile and kissed my forehead lightly. “What are you thinking about?”


    I shook my head and sat up. Wrapping my arms around his neck, I grinned and answered, “You!”


    His gazed darkened with desire. As his lips inched nearer to my ear, he drawled, “What about me?”


    “You’re my beloved!” I crinkled my eyes up in a smile.


    He let out a low chuckle and tightened his arms around me. “Joseph has just delivered our lunch. Are


    you hungry?”


    “A little.” I leaned into his embracezily. “You’re done with the meeting?”


    He picked me up and bounced me slightly. “You’re too skinny.”


    I kept my mouth shut as he walked into his office. Joseph took one look at us and exited silently.


    Ashton sat down and ced me in hisps. He asked, “What do you want to eat?”


    I salivated at the food because they looked particrly appetizing. Immediately, my eyes lit up in


    delight.


    I tried struggling out of his embrace, but the man pressed me down. “Won’t you reward me?”


    Bursting intoughter, I leaned on his shoulder and returned, “What reward do you want?”


    He raised a brow. “At least try to please me.”


    I arched up and nted a kiss at the corner of his lips. “Will this do?”


    He smiled in satisfaction and replied, “That’s sweet.”


    “What’s sweet?” I asked, ncing at the delicious spread of the table. I was obviously distracted and


    starving.


    “Your lips!” he answered before covering my mouth in a devouring kiss.


    Time flew by quickly when we were with each other.


    After lunch, I started nodding off. Perhaps it was because of the recent dreary weather in K City.


    Soon, I fell asleep apanied by the sound of sttering rain.


    When I woke up, Ashton was lying by my side. He was undeniably an irresistible man. As he was


    sound asleep, every feature of his face was rxed.


    Macy had once said Ashton was akin to opium. One could either admire its beauty from afar or be


    addicted to it forever.


    Both oues weren’t desirable.


    I had spent the whole day at Fuller Corporation, so I knew nothing about Hannah’s current condition. I


    reached out for my phone and woke Ashton up in the progress.


    He opened his eyes and rasped out sexily, “You’re awake?”


    I nodded. My phone was in my hand as I sent a text to John to ask about Hannah’s condition.
