When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 924


    The houses in the urban vige were old, and the structures and facilities were all inconvenient and


    there were a lot of safety hazards. However, they could survive here at the very least as it was cheap.


    As Ashton continued to watch the elderly couple walking further away, he hesitated, then said, “How


    long has it been since Sasha left?”

    “Almost three or four months.”


    He frowned slightly. “Most of the houses here have their leases renewed every three months!”


    At first, I did not understand what he meant. Then, as soon as I got it, I hurriedly got out of the car and


    chased after the couple. Houses in the urban vige had a short rental period. Previously, when Renee


    was still hospitalized, Sasha’s parents had basically lived there with her. Afterward, they had brought


    her out for such a long period of time, so it was likely that their house lease was already up.


    The dirty path was filled with muddy puddles, so it was not easy to walk in. Ashton grabbed me and


    nced at the path in front of us, then frowned. “This ce is very uncared for.”


    I looked around the area and could not help but feel a little cold and lost. The roads and streetlights


    were mostly faulty, so some parts of the road had no light. As a result, we had to use the shlights on


    our phones to light the way. Indeed, this ce truly reflected the stark contrast between the poor and


    depressing living conditions of the bottom rank of the social sses to the luxury lifestyle of the rich


    people in this city.


    After Ashton and I walked for a while, we realized that the couple seemed to have already walked far


    off. I was about to give Sasha’s mother a call before we heard some noises.


    The sound came from behind an old building. Using his phone’s light, Ashton managed to find a small


    trail. However, it was very narrow, and only one person could cross at a time. He turned to me and


    said, “Follow me. Be careful!”


    I nodded and followed after him. A whileter, a small yard of about ten square meters appeared. It


    was littered with a mess of items.


    Although it was dark, one could clearly see that the items included some daily necessities, old pots and


    pans, clothes, and many other random items.


    “You stupid old fools. These things have been stored in my house for free for a few months. You should


    be d that I didn’t collect any storage fees from you. Instead, you dare toe to take them from


    me? Don’t you feel embarrassed? Why would I want all these things? They’re such a mess. Just take


    them away and don’t get in my way!” The one speaking was a middle-aged woman who looked a little


    rough. I could vaguely make out her features in the dim light. She was wearing a poor-quality mink coat


    and a pair of overly dramatic gold earrings. Her lipstick shade looked strikingly scary. As she scolded


    them, she continued to throw the items outside.


    With reddened eyes, Sasha’s mother said, “Mary, I didn’t mean it like that. We’re just here to take some


    clothes since winter is almost here. As for the rent we owe you, it’s eptable that you take all this as


    payment. But our clothes aren’t worth any money and you have no use for them anyway. If you just let


    us take them, we’ll be able to survive this winter.”


    The woman snorted coldly. “Take them then. Don’t cry to me about how miserable you are. I’ve seen


    too many of such people in my lifetime. Who isn’t struggling to survive? If you want your clothes, just


    take them. But if you can’t afford to pay the rent, don’t even think about living here anymore. There are


    many other people who want to rent this ce!”


    Sasha’s mother nodded as she searched for their clothes in the small yard. On the other hand, Sasha’s


    father squatted, staring at something. Although the light was dim, it seemed like he was looking at a


    photograph.


    “Mrs. Brooks!” I said as I walked into the yard.


    When she heard the sound, Sasha’s mother looked toward us and froze for a moment before she


    asked, “Mr. and Mrs. Fuller, why are you here?”


    As she spoke, she intertwined her fingers in embarrassment. I smiled and replied, “Ashton and I were


    worried, so we came to check on you.”


    “I’m sorry you have to see this,” replied Sasha’s mother, embarrassed.


    I understood how she was feeling as this was a showcase of their poverty and embarrassment. Sadly,


    there was nothing she could do to hide them.


    Without dragging it on any longer, I looked at thendlord and said, “They are old. Do you still have any


    houses on the first floor?”


    When the woman recovered from her dazed state, she looked at me and replied, “Of course. Do you


    want to rent it?”


    I nodded. “Help them bring all these back in first. I’ll pay you ordingly!”


    She looked at me, then at Ashton, and soon put on a smile as she nodded. Then, she started to move


    things back.


    Sasha’s mother looked at me nkly. “Mrs. Fuller, you’ve helped us enough. This…”


    “Mrs. Brooks, live here with peace of mind and don’t worry about anything else. Just take some time to


    recover. Everything will get better in the future.” I did not know how else tofort her.


    When the woman was done moving the things back in, she looked at us with a bright smile and asked,


    “I’ve taken care of whatever’s here. Is there anything else I can do for you?”
