When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 1098


    Seeing that, Emma teased us, “You guys are so sweet together.”


    Ashton and Iughed at the same time as if we had nned it.


    “Tsk… tsk… tsk…” John shook his head. “Only the two of you would do something like that. Your public


    disy of affection is not weed here. But I won’t stop you, so please go get a room!”


    “Arghhh!”


    Emma gave him a tight p on the arm, upon hearing his passing remark. John groaned in pain. With


    a scowling face, hemented, “Mind your manners, woman! Are you trying to kill your husband?”


    John had a reputation that preceded him. Anyone who saw his long face would tremble in fear or bow


    reverently to him, regardless of who it was. Yet Emma was different. She faced him head-on as if she


    had gotten permanent immunization against his vehemence. Impatiently, she rolled her eyes and


    confronted him boldly, “Who allowed you say such derisive things?”


    John’s expression became sullen after being refuted by Emma. Wanting to regain some dignity, he


    stood up abruptly and red at her, intending to intimidate her. “Trust me. I’ll kick you out of the house


    if you dare to point one more finger at me.”

    Those two had an agreement when they got married. They vowed to give each other freedom and not


    to meddle in the spouse’s private affairs. Thus, I always thought they were a match made in heaven.


    Faced with their sudden argument, I felt rather overwhelmed and did not know how to respond to it. I


    wondered if they were really upset with each other.


    Even so, Emma ignored himpletely. She scoffed at him and then pulled me upstairs, “How


    ridiculous! Letty,e with me. I have a gift for Summer, but I forgot to bring it down.”


    My hands were tied, so I could only follow her upstairs. John roared a few times, asking for her to stay.


    However, she proceeded upstairs without even turning her head, as if his scolding were music to her


    ears. I was quite impressed.


    Emma then brought me to their room. I waited on the sofa while she went ahead into her bedroom.


    Momentster, she returned with a vintage sandalwood box in her hands.


    “Open it and take a look.” She passed me the box.


    As I opened the box, I saw a shiny anklet lying on a sponge bed.


    “Your brother told me that Summer has gone through a lot of hardships even at a young age. I felt so


    troubled and wanted to gift this to her. This anklet is said to protect a child from harm and shoo away


    bad luck. Legend has it that kids who wear one before the age of nine will be kept in safe hands for a


    lifetime.”


    “You’re so thoughtful, Emma.” Holding the anklet, I was deeply moved.


    My first impression of Emma was open-minded, sharp-tongued, and cid. She’d often say things that


    cause everyone’s jaw to drop. Thus, I expected her to stay the same and do things as she pleased


    after marrying John. Now, I felt like she fit the role of John’s wife very well.


    When we were in the living room just now, I had noticed that Emma sincerely liked John a lot. It was


    practically written all over her face. I suspect John felt the same way about her too, just that he hadn’t


    realized it yet.


    “As long as you like it.” Feeling smug, Emma patted my shoulders.


    Summer fell asleep when we were heading home. Cradling her in my arms, I looked out of the window


    and sank into deep thoughts. My mind was inplete disarray. “Distraught over the news about


    Armond?” Ashton leaned over, took his coat off, and draped it over my shoulders. He even fixed the


    corners.


    Tugging at his jacket, I lowered my head and hugged Summer tightly. Sighing, I replied, “It’s not entirely


    because of him. I feel that I didn’t take good care of Summer, causing her to suffer so much.”
