When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 699


    She even waved to a waiter and said, “Hi, can I have two more sets of cutleries, please? Thank you!”


    Then, she led Rachel and Ashton to our table and invited them to take a seat.


    The restaurant we were at had small stools instead of regr chairs, which made it a little awkward for


    anyone in a skirt.


    Nora noticed this as well and said enthusiastically, “Oh no, I forgot that you’re in a dress. I’ll ask


    someone for a regr chair.”

    She hadn’t even finished speaking before running off to get someone. When she returned, she was


    carrying a regr chair in one hand. The tables weren’t very tall either to match the stools, and Rachel


    seemed rather out of ce.


    She was also dressed pretty stylishly in a dress that showed off both her smooth shoulders and fair


    back. By sitting in a taller chair, she almost seemed more like an art exhibit than a customer.


    Apart from that, this restaurant wasn’t particrly high-ss. The people in here weren’t used to seeing


    such beautiful, fashionable women that often.


    It was inevitable that someone like Rachel would attract more stares. They didn’t seem sleazy or


    uncouth, but simply curious and apprising.


    Of course, the awkwardness was also inevitable in such a situation.


    Nora seemedpletely unfazed by this and asked Ashton, “Mr. Fuller, is Ms. Zimmer your secretary?


    She’s so elegant! I haven’t seen a woman this pretty since Scarlett!”


    Is she trying topliment me or dig me an even deeper hole? I thought to myself.


    Ashton nced at me nonchntly before saying, “She’s the representative of Fuller Corporation’s AI


    projects.” It was a simple introduction, free of any useless facts.


    Nora nodded a little too enthusiastically. “That’s so admirable! You’re both pretty and smart? I bet you


    have a boyfriend, right?”


    Rachel was clearly starting to get bothered by the stares and forced a smile. “No, I don’t.”


    “What? But you’re so pretty! Do you have someone you like, then? Ah, wait, I should be asking what


    your ideal type is!” Nora couldn’t stop babbling.


    Rachel nced at Ashton almost instinctively before lowering her head and saying, “I haven’t really


    thought about that.”


    “Is that so?” Nora said dramatically. “My mom always told me that girls needed to have certain


    standards for their future boyfriends. Someone as pretty and skilled as you should find someone like


    Mr. Fuller. That would be a good match. Just look at Scarlett and Mr. Fuller! They’re a match made in


    heaven.”


    Yet for some reason, I felt like she meant something else.


    Rachel nodded, looking extra ufortable.


    After that, Nora decided to speak to Ashton instead since Rachel seemed a little awkward. “Mr. Fuller, I


    should introduce myself. I’m Scarlett’s friend, Nora! We met before, but since we were in a rush, I didn’t


    get to introduce myself.”


    She reached out and shook Ashton’s hand.


    Nora was always the talkative one, so she was chatting throughout the whole meal.


    “Mr. Fuller, since Scarlett is here, and you’re in K City, are you guys living apart for now?” Nora


    suddenly brought up.


    Ashton’s dark gaze fell on me, and he said, “No. I’ll go wherever she goes.”


    “Aw! Now you’re just flexing your rtionship to the rest of us,” Nora said with a shy squeal.


    She turned to look at Rachel, who was starting to turn pale. “Ms. Zimmer, as Mr. Fuller’s colleague,


    don’t you get tired of seeing them act all lovey-dovey every day?”


    Rachel smiled and replied, “I’m usually in K City and rarely get to see Ms. Stovall, so I wouldn’t get the


    chance to.”


    Hearing that, Nora frowned slightly. “Oh, you guys don’t call her Mrs. Fuller at thepany? ‘Ms.


    Stovall’ seems a bit too standoffish.”


    “I rarely meet her after all, so it’s a bit hard to suddenly get used to that,” Rachel continued answering


    politely.


    Nora pouted and nced at me. I didn’t understand what she meant and just stared back at her in


    confusion.


    At the sight of my indifference, Nora suddenly leaned slightly toward Rachel. Her motion caused a


    ss of water in front of her to topple over, spilling the contents all over Rachel. There wasn’t a lot of


    water left in the ss, but Rachel’s dress was expensive, and it was obvious that Nora wanted to get a


    reaction.


    As she wiped the water off Rachel’s dress, Nora apologized, “I’m so sorry, Ms. Zimmer. Maybe you


    should go to the bathroom to clean that.”


    Rachel was frowning at that point. She was obviously ruffled, but she was good at controlling her


    emotions and remained calm.


    Once Rachel left, Nora ignored Ashton’s presence and said, “Ms. Stovall, can’t you tell that that fine


    lady has her eyes on your man?”


    I felt ufortable at her calling Ashton “my man” and looked at him instinctively. Despite that, he


    lookedpletely unfazed.
