    When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 1022


    “We should head outside first!”


    Joseph looked confused. “We’re leaving already?”


    I nodded. “Armond is currently in Moranta while Brandon is still upied with the death of his wife. At a


    time like this, our main priority should be to locate Jody as soon as possible. Contact Din. He should


    have some information for us by now.”


    Joseph nodded and left without any questions.


    I then met up with Zachary in his hotel room. Using the noisy environment as an excuse, we checked


    out of the hotel and quickly left.


    When we returned back to the hospital, Summer’s surgery was done. Cameron was apanying her


    during her recovery in the hospital. Fortunately, everything went smoothly.


    Meanwhile, I went to find Ann and Amy. They settled down in an urban vige in A City. The


    environment they lived in seemed a bit vile and dirty. When Ann saw my face, she didn’t look surprised


    at all. She then continued on nonchntly with her cooking using the induction cooker. Since there was


    no venttion, the whole room was engulfed in smoke.


    “The environment here isn’t that good. Apologies!” She coughed a few times as she was saying that.


    After helping to set up the food on the small table, Amy sat on the bench beside the table and waited.

    Although their living conditions wasn’t that good, the two of them seemed happy together nheless.


    Cutting to the chase, I directly stated, “I’ve promised you that I’ll help you find Jody. In return, I’d like


    you to convince him to go with us to the Imperial Hotel.”


    She lowered her head and continued washing the pots. “You guys want him to lead you to the


    basement right?”


    “Yes,” I answered truthfully.


    She red at me and uttered, “You do know that there’s no need for you guys to confirm personally


    right? You can just call the police. Since they don’t have time to move the goods now, they’ll be forced


    to wait when the police do an investigation as the elevator is the only exit.”


    I smiled and responded, “I’ll consider it. That being said, I still need you to convince Jody.”


    She went silent for a bit before replying, “I’m not sure if I could convince him. Have you guys found


    him?”


    I shook my head. “Not yet!”


    “I see.” She walked to the table and sat down. “Do you want to have some?” she asked.


    I shook my head. I then waited quietly on the side for her to finish her food before I added, “I used to


    think that what I did was right. But looking back at it now, I realized how daft and juvenile I really was.


    That’s what I get for being so dumb.”


    Confused, she raised her eyebrows. “Ms. Stovall, what are you…”


    “It’s nothing. I’m just bbering. Okay then, I should probably go now. I’ll contact you again once I’ve


    located Jody.”


    After that, I got up and left their small and narrow house.


    As I got on to the car, Joseph reported, “Mrs. Fuller, I’ve received word from Din regarding Jody.”


    I nodded and instructed, “Get some of your men to keep an eye on the Imperial Hotel. I want to know


    every vehicle that enters or leaves the ce.”


    He nodded in response.


    However, there was still this uneasiness in me that I couldn’t seem to get rid of. Is Ann’s existence part


    of Armond’s n all along? The timing of her appearance seemed rather contrived.


    I decided to give Nora a call. Unlike her usual exuberant self, she seemed aloof when she answered


    the phone. “You have finally decided to call.”


    “Let’s meet up at the café!” I suggested.


    “Okay!” she nodded.


    After that, Joseph and I headed over to the café.


    When we arrived, Nora was already there. Something about her seemed different from when Ist saw


    her. She was acting furtively.


    Upon seeing me, she acted distant and let out a faint smile. “You’re here. Take a sit!”


    I sat down and stared at her quietly.


    After a while, she broke the silence between us and asked, “When did you realize that he loves you?”


    She was referring to Armond.


    I pursed my lips and answered honestly, “When he was in Moranta, he wanted to get his hands on the


    management right there. In order to achieve his goal, he locked Ashton up in a refrigerating chamber.


    We barely escaped death.”


    She pursed her lips. “I won’t pry too much into your personal matters. I’m truly sorry about what you’ve


    gone through. That being said, we can’t be friends anymore.”


    I shrugged and replied apathetically, “I know. I respect your choice. We can put this whole thing about


    the Imperial Hotel behind us now. With that said, I’m not here for your apology. You know that, right?”


    She asked instead, “What do you want then?”


    I stayed silent for a while before answering, “Do not bring the Oberick family into this. Armond has done


    a lot of bad things. From trading human organs to smuggling kyanine, a lot of lives were lost because


    of him. He’ll be thrown behind bars once he gets caught. Nora, Mr. Oberick’s good name will be


    smeared by Armond when that happens. You can’t put the Oberick family at stake because of a crude


    man like him.”
