    When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 780


    Rachel’s face was distorted with rage. My mind was torn in two at that moment. Half of me wanted to


    leave, but the other half couldn’t just let her have her way.


    I grabbed the coffee on the table and poured it on top of her head. I stared at her long and hard while


    the coffee dripped from her long hair, all over to her white dress. She looked terrible. “Ms. Zimmer, stop


    doing something like this. You are embarrassing yourself.”


    She red at me in a fit of vicious anger. “Scarlett! Do you have a death wish?” she roared and tried to


    push my body away with both hands. Before I could react, someone pushed her down to her chair.


    The chaos attracted the attention of customers in that café. Marcus’ unannounced presence clearly


    surprised me.


    He gazed down into Rachel’s eyes and said icily, “I advise you to look in the mirror before you boast


    about your looks.” He couldn’t care less about Rachel, who was trembling with anger. Instead, he took


    off his jacket and put it over my shoulders to cover my stained dress. “Let’s go.”


    We walked out of the café, and I thanked him when we reached the parking lot. I tried to return his


    jacket, but he refused to take it. “You don’t have to return it now. You need it more than I do,” he said.


    Confused, I shrugged and forced the jacket onto him. “I’m fine. The vi is just a couple of blocks


    away,” I said. Rather than insisting, he merely stared at me helplessly. He was clearly disappointed.


    At the vi, Nora was still asleep. So I sat in a daze in the living room.


    I wonder why Rachel is here. Did shee all the way to A City just to find Ashton?


    I knew her very well. She would never swallow her pride to do something like that, especially after how


    Ashton had turned her down.


    What exactly brought her here?

    My head was pounding from those mere thoughts. Just when I was about to getfortable on the


    couch, the phone rang. That must be Nora.


    “Have you eaten?” It was Ashton. I froze for a moment.


    “I’m not hungry.”


    “I’ll take that as a no, then.” His stern voice surprised me. Before I could respond, he continued, “I


    asked Joseph to bring you some food. He will be there in a minute. Be sure to eat them, or you’ll have


    to deal with me.”


    My expression was one of annoyed disbelief. What am I? Five? I pursed my lips and muttered, “I will.


    You don’t have to be so rude.”


    Right then, the doorbell rang. “There he is. Open the door and eat up.”


    “Fine!” I pouted, got up, and answered the door. Joseph stood there with his hands full of boxes of


    food, fruits, and greens. “Ashton, I’m hanging up now. Bye.” I quickly reached out to help him carry all


    the stuff.


    Joseph passed me the lunch boxes and said, “Mr. Fuller picked these up for you when he was having


    lunch at Sea View. He thought you might like them.” Then he went straight to the kitchen and stacked


    the fruits in the fridge.


    I opened up the lunch box and found arge serving of meticulously crafted seafood meal. I couldn’t


    help but said, “They look delicious, but I don’t think I can finish them.”


    Joseph smiled. “Mr. Fuller wants you to enjoy it with Ms. Oberick.” I nodded. Initially, I wanted to call


    Nora, but I figured she might still be asleep. So I decided to wait until she woke up.


    I looked at him while he unpacked the grocery bags and put more fruits and vegetables into the fridge.


    “Why did you buy so many vegetables? We don’t usually cook dinner.”


    “Mr. Fuller said you should fill up your kitchen because you will need themter,” he replied.


    I nodded, then I instinctively asked, “Did you guys have a business meeting at Sea View?”


    “That’s not it…” I could feel a hesitancy in his voice. “Ms. Larson and Mr. Quinn were there, too. They


    were having lunch together,” he exined while continued to store the vegetables.


    I was a little surprised. “Reba was there too?”


    He nodded. “The Lavelian Vige project was stalled, and the headquarters is waiting to receive a


    confirmation from Mr. Fuller. To speed things up, Mr. Quinn had no choice but to hand the documents to


    him personally.”


    I mumbled a response and didn’t pursue further.


    “Mrs. Fuller, don’t get the wrong idea. Mr. Quinn brought Ms. Larson along for his trip to A City because


    he was worried about her. He just wanted to keep her by his side. This has nothing to do with Mr.


    Fuller.”
