    When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 783


    When I stepped out of the house, Nora lowered her sunsses and said, “Your dressing today makes


    you look like a virtuous woman. It’s basically the ideal outfit to wear to meet your partner’s family for the


    first time. When I have to meet Mr. Murphy in the future, I’ll use your dress as a reference.”


    When I got into the car, I could not help butugh. “I just tied up my hair, put on a dress, and did some


    light makeup. How does it make me look virtuous?”


    She started the car as she said, “You don’t understand. Many elderly folks like girls like you, who look


    neat, gentle, and quiet because they look like good wives.”


    Noticing the antique tea set and premium tea in the back, she said, “You already know what Grandpa


    likes after only meeting him once. No wonder the old Mr. Fuller picked you to marry his grandson!”


    I smiled. “If I told you that I was just lucky, would you believe me?”


    She nodded, then bobbed her head to the rhythm of the music that was ying. She replied loudly, “Of


    course, I believe you!”


    All along the way, the music was upbeat. I had already been in a good mood, and listening to rock


    music only made me feel even better.


    It was evening by the time we reached Lavelian Vige. Nora drove the car into the vige and parked


    outside an antique-looking vi.


    Channing stood with his walking stick at the gates of the vi, seemingly having waited for a long time.


    When he saw Nora’s car approach, he could not hide his happiness as he walked down the stairs to


    wee her.


    As soon as she parked the car, Nora got off and ran toward Channing to hug him. She said yfully,


    “Grandpa, didn’t I say that you should just wait at home? I know how to drive in. It’s cold at night. What


    if you catch a cold?”


    Channing grinned from ear to ear as he replied, “This girl. Didn’t you say you would arrive in the


    morning? Look what time it is.”


    Nora pouted. “I was asleep in the morning! By the way, I brought a friend with me.”


    As she spoke, Nora pulled me forward. “Grandpa, this is my friend, Scarlett.”


    Channing smiled as he looked at me. “I know her. We met in the vige’s hotel. You’re working at


    Murphy Corporation, right?”


    I nodded and smiled lightly. “Hello, Mr. Oberick!”


    He nodded in reply. “Hello!”


    When we were done with our introductions, Channing instructed his workers to prepare the food, then


    brought us into his house. There were only a few people in the vi, with only two caregivers and one


    housekeeper.


    The kitchen seemed to have prepared the food a long time ago and had already set them on the table.


    As we entered, the caregiver smiled and said, “They’ve all been heated up!”


    Channing nodded and said, “Get a ss of beet juice for Nora.”


    Then, he turned to me and asked, “What would you like to drink, Ms. Stovall?”


    I smiled politely and replied, “I’m fine with anything, Mr. Oberick. I’m not picky.”


    Heughed. “Why don’t you try Nora’s favourite beet juice as well then?”


    I nodded. “Sure, thank you!”


    Just then, the sound of an engine came from outside. It sounded like a car had just parked by the door.


    Nora had only just picked up her chopsticks and had not even taken a bite. She turned to Channing


    and asked, “Grandpa, did you invite someone else?”


    He was taken aback for a moment, then he shook his head and replied, “No. Who woulde and visit


    an old man like me in the middle of the night?”


    The housekeeper then entered the room and said, “Mr. Oberick, a Mr. Fuller wish to see you.”


    Nora tutted and looked at me. “Ashton?”


    Confused, I shook my head and replied, “He should be busy now. I don’t think he’lle here.”


    However, I was not very certain of my words. Since Joe and Reba are in A City, he should be taking


    them around to view the city. I don’t think he’de here to apany me for dinner, right?


    Channing smiled and turned to the housekeeper. “What a good timing. We’ve only just sat down. Invite


    him in quickly!”


    The housekeeper nodded and left, then soon came back.


    Behind the housekeeper followed a slender, handsome man with an outstanding appearance. It was


    Ashton.


    Nora could not help butugh. “Mr. Fuller, are you afraid that I’d abduct your wife? I don’t think you’d be


    so petty as to not even let me take her out to y for a while, right?”


    After Ashton greeted Channing, he turned to Nora and replied, “Scarlett doesn’t sleep very well and


    gets insomnia easily. You two can go ahead and chat. I won’t interfere!”


    “Please take a seat!” said Channing as he pulled out the chair beside him. He then turned to Nora and


    scolded, “Nora, where are your manners?”

    Ashtonughed. “I was the one who came here uninvited. Sorry to disturb you.”


    Recalling what Nora had just said, Channing then looked at Ashton and asked, “Nora said that you


    were here to see your wife. Isn’t your wife Ms. Zimmer? Why…”


    “Grandpa, you’re confused!” said Nora, “What do you mean by Ms. Zimmer? She’s just a fake. The


    granddaughter-inw who was chosen by the old Mr. Fuller is here!”


    She pointed at me and smiled. “You gave Grandma’s bracelet to the wrong person. She’s going to be


    angry!”
