When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 973


    I pursed my lips as my head spun from it all. “Nora, maybe Armond is not the man for you. I think you


    deserve someone better.”


    A long silence ensued. Nora calmed down on the other end and finally spoke, “Scarlett, do you know


    something about Armond? Has he found another woman, and fallen in love with her? Is that why you’re


    saying this?”


    Her question made me realize that my remarks were out of line. Stumped, I spoke, “No, I just didn’t


    want you to head into a blind alley. I’m just trying to remind you that there’s more to life other than


    being in a rtionship. Don’t overthink it. I’m really swamped these days. I’ll ask you and Hailey out for


    lunch after this. Speaking of which, how is Hailey doing?”


    Nora did not dwell on my words, and snapped out of her emotions and said, “She’s doing okay, but I


    really find her so odd sometimes. She just stands by the window and lets the cold wind brush past her


    face, and she rarely talks. Even if she does, she’s making all these weird remarks like there’s


    something wrong with her. Hailey’s really not good business material. I mean, people are put off by her


    somber outlook, and really reluctant to talk business with her.”


    She paused for a moment before continuing, “Right, I identally saw her taking a shower in the


    bathroom yesterday, and noticed a really long scar on her left breast. Has she gotten injured in the


    past? I didn’t dare to ask her since we’re really not that close, and I haven’t known her for long. Are you


    close to her, Scarlett? To be frank, I’m a little scared of her.”


    I creased my brows slightly and said, “There’s nothing wrong with her. It’s just that she has depression


    because of what happened to her father. Don’t worry, she’s still in control of her emotions. Just chat her


    up more often if you have the time.”


    “Huh?” Nora seemed surprised at my statement. “She has depression? I didn’t know that! How did you


    know that? How long have you known her anyway? Why do you seem to know a lot about her?”


    I was rendered speechless. Nora was just pining over Armond moments ago, but now the woman was


    inquiring about Hailey with such gusto.

    I found it hard to exin everything to her and merely said, “I met her when I was back in A City. She’s


    really not business material, but I think her father is the reason why she’s so hung up about doing


    business. Don’t overthink it. Just talk to her when you’ve got the time. The same goes for Armond.


    Don’t waste your time overthinking things. He will call you if he really wants to see you. I think you


    should know that if the man doesn’t want to see you, there’s no way you could reach him anyway.”


    I initially nned to go the hospital after I hung up the phone. However, at the thought that Ashton


    might not have had his lunch yet, I bought some of his favorite foods at the city center before dropping


    by.


    Since Jared’s bone marrow did not match Summer’s, the only way right now was to get to A City as


    soon as possible. I was not sure if the name card Armond gave me was of any use, but I got to give it a


    try no matter what.


    I called Cameron and asked him about Zachary. I didn’t know what Ashton said to him, but ording to


    Cameron, he had calmed down and was no longer rushing to A City.


    Organ trade is never an option. These words were only fit for people whose children were perfectly


    healthy.


    The truth was, they might have a paradigm shift once their children could benefit from it. Outsiders


    would not have a clue as to what the parents were put through when their children were diagnosed with


    a terminal illness.


    I went back to the Fuller Corporation and took an elevator with some of the employees. I noticed that


    the girls were stealing nces at me. Frowning, I could not help but wonder if there was anything odd


    with my appearance.


    Nobody liked to be stared at, and I was starting to get annoyed. “Which department are you guys


    from?” I asked with a stern face.


    Stumped at my sudden question, the group looked at me and replied, “We’re from the Publicity


    Department.”


    I merely nodded and said nothing. The group went silent as well.


    After some time, the group was at a loss and asked, “Mrs. Fuller, are you going to see Mr. Fuller?”


    I nodded and gave them a slight smile. “I’m going to send him lunch.”


    The others nodded and smiled. “Mr. Fuller is so lucky, but normally Ms. Collins will prepare snacks for


    him…”


    Another woman nudged at the person who was clearly talking too much. She managed an awkward


    smile and stopped talking.


    The smile on my face remained unchanged as Imented, “That’s very thoughtful of her.”


    The others smiled and said nothing further.


    The elevator door finally sprung open and I stepped out of it. The smile on my face disappeared. It’s


    never easy to try to ignore the elephant in the room, is it?
