When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 779


    I was stunned for a moment. “There is some resemnce between you and her. No wonder he’s still


    holding onto you. Well, I guess he can’t be bothered to pay attention to me because I’m the total


    opposite of you two,” Rachel continued.

    Does she mean Reba?


    I was not usually a fan of bitter vor, including coffee. I wrapped my hand around the coffee mug that


    was served in front of me, stirred it slightly, and listened intently without lifting my head.


    “Don’t you ever wonder why I asked you out all of a sudden?” she asked eagerly after she saw no


    response from me.


    “Why?” I muttered and raised my head.


    She let out a chuckle. “You seem pretty calm, huh?”


    I remained silent and continued to stir my coffee.


    “You know, I’ve always wondered about your marriage,” she remarked after a moment of silence. “I


    mean, who could have guessed that a nobody like you can stay beside Ashton for so many years? But


    after I saw the lost daughter of the Moore family, I totally get it. You are just a mere substitute! Reba


    Larson must be his first love, but it seems like things did not turn out as he wished.”


    She continued after a pause, “In fact, I have noints if she were his wife. In terms of looks and


    figure, I definitely beat her. Yet, her parents were the best in the world, hands down. The fact that she


    came from a very prestigious family makes her the perfect match for Ashton. You, however, are


    questionable. I’m obviously better than you in every aspect. And worse, you have zero family


    background.”


    I pursed my lips silently and started to mull over a matter of fact that I had simply overlooked. After all


    these years, the Moores knew the truth behind Reba’s birth, but they never made that story public


    as there were too many risks to bear.


    Perhaps they wanted to make it up to her even after she left the family.


    I guessed Rachel must have dug up some information regarding the woman.


    “Ms. Zimmer, you’re making something out of nothing,” I said calmly with no intention of defending


    myself. “Our marriage is blessed with love and joy, so you don’t have to worry about us. Most


    importantly, outsiders have no right to meddle with our family affairs.”


    She sneered, “Oh, really?” Then she took the spoon out of her coffee,id it aside, and leaned back in


    the chair with disdain on her face. “So you’re implying that you and Ashton share mutual love? Are you


    sure?”


    I furrowed my brows unwittingly and said, “I don’t think I need to argue with you about this.”


    “Yeah, you’re right. There’s no need for argument. But tell me. Deep down inside, you are actually


    unsure of his feelings for you, aren’t you? My, fake love is cruel.” There was a hint of sarcasm in her


    voice.


    I propped my chin up with my hand and looked at her. I’ve had enough of her childish behavior. “Ms.


    Zimmer, are you applying your AI research skills into reality? I believe it’s none of your business if


    Ashton loves me. Why do you care?”


    Her face turned grim. “Nothing, I just… pity you!”


    I nodded, looked down at my phone, and prepared to leave before Nora got up from her sleep.


    “Well, thank you for your concern, Ms. Zimmer.” I stood up and said, “You don’t really have toe all


    the way here to pick on me because the reality will only strike you back. You know very well that


    Ashton never pays attention to you, that’s why you asked me out to vent your anger and pass all the


    negative energy to me. I’m sorry to say, but you look pathetic.


    “Here’s a friendly reminder. I know Ashton and Reba more than you. You can’t provoke me with


    their rtionship. He married me because I am worthy of him. And stop being so full of yourself. Yeah,


    you may be beautiful on the outside, but not on the inside.”


    “You…”


    Before she could utter any more words, I continued, “Bear in mind. There are far many more beautiful


    and amazing women in the world out there. You are not that outstanding. Why don’t you work on


    yourself more, huh? Conceited and proud people like you are not liked by any. Please focus on that,


    Ms. Zimmer.”


    Just when I was about to leave, Rachel stopped me and sshed her coffee all over my dress without


    any hesitation. I was defenceless and momentarily stupefied.


    “Scarlett! Who do you think you are? You are just a leech! How dare you show off in front of me! Listen.


    Sooner orter, your life will be miserable! Because the girl who he really cares for has returned. He


    doesn’t need you anymore!”
