When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 601
“So, Mr. Fuller, what’s special about the festive season in J City?” Cameron inquired as she smiled
awkwardly.
“Nothing much. Just the usual.” He replied casually.
Cameron was dumbfounded.
Zachary ced some vegetables onto Cameron’s te, hinting for her to focus on her meal instead.
The room went silent as Ashton seemed to be troubled by something.
Ashton was able to move about independently already – probably because he wanted to return to K
City. Meanwhile, Cameron and Zachary left for their amodation.
I stayed with Ashton while he called Joseph to hand over some work to him.
I sat there waiting for half an hour before his call ended.
He furrowed his brows as he hung up the call.
He took over the book in my hand, nced at me, and said, “Joseph got the best ointment. It should
get better within a few days.”
As I felt his gazended on my face, I realized he was referring to the scars on my face.
I shook my head lightly and gave a slight smile. “It’s okay. No big deal.”
He lifted his hands while his gaze softened.
I held his hands and informed him, “The doctor will be changing the prescription in a bit, and you can
sleep after that.”
He let out a light chuckle and pulled me into his embrace. “Don’t worry. I’m almost fully recovered.”
How could I not worry? Even though the scar was on his back, it was too huge for me to ignore.
As I recalled what happened that afternoon, my gaze turned onto him, and I asked, “Are you still
worried about Jared?”

He fell into a daze for a moment and shook his head lightly. “No. I’ve talked to the prison side, and I’m
assured that there wouldn’t be any problems.”
I nodded in understanding and suggested, “If you are still unable to ept Cameron and Zachary, I can
keep my distance from them.”
He furrowed his brows and seemed a little surprised. “Why the sudden thought?”
How should I put it?
After giving it some thought, I borated, “Even though the Moore family was not directly involved in
Naomi’s incident, it still happened because of them. I understand your bitterness towards them, and I
don’t wish to make our lives more difficult, hence the suggestion.”
He let out a smile and exined, “Scarlett, if we were to do that, it means that we are letting it fester.
That’s not a good idea as it is going to make our lives more difficult.”
I was in a daze. Just as I was about to speak again, the doctor entered the ward.
After checking his injuries, the doctor diagnosed, “The scars are healing well with no big issues. They
may start to itch, but please do not scratch them, or the scars will open up again, affecting the healing
process.”
I nodded in understanding. Meanwhile, the nurse handed me the prescription list to prepare for his
discharge.
The time taken to get from W City to K City was only a four-hour flight.
Back at the vi, many people had been waiting at the gate. Sally, who was one of them, went up to
Ashton and inquired about his condition.
Zachary and Cameron both looked at me. Cameron hesitated for a moment before she asked,
“Scarlett, it’s going to be new year’s eve soon, and it’s going to be boring with just the two of you. Do
you want us to join you? If you are worried about the traveling distance, I can visit with your dad.”
I was surprised by the offer. I thought about it for a moment and replied, “You should check with
Ashton.”
Cameron nced over at Zachary, prompting for his input. Zachary looked at me and added in his low
voice, “Let’s spend this festive season together. Emery and Hunter will be joining too – the more, the
merrier.”
I pursed my lips while I thought about it while ncing over at Ashton, who was being swarmed by the
many questions from Sally.
On the other hand, a ck Land Rover slowed down at the porch of the vi. It was Joe.
As the car stopped, Joe alighted and went up to Ashton. They looked at each other while Joe asked in
a soft and concerned voice, “Are you okay?”
“I’m fine.” Ashton nodded.
Joe must have heard about the incident at W City.
A crowd of people entered the living room. It seemed like Sally had been around for some days as she
had adapted well and was in control of the household.
On new year’s eve.
Unexpectedly, it was snowing heavily at K City. Because Sally could not visit the Moore family, both the
Moore family and Sally came to our vi.
After a long day of work, it was finally dinner time. Emery’s baby bump grew, along with her appetite.
Emery was very chatty. Sally, who had been alone for some time, enjoyed listening to her chatter.
Cameron was busy portioning food onto everyone’s te.
While Cameron did that, Zachary ced some food on her te.
Summer kept eximing throughout dinner, “Mommy! Please eat fast! I want to see the fireworks.”
I nodded while Ashton ced a piece of meat on my te. I lifted my head and met his gentle gaze. He
gave a light smile and said, “Themb is very tender. You need to try it.”
