When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 1162
Holden smirked as he retrieved a dictaphone from his vest pocket. He pressed y and ced it on
the table. “Marcus, get in touch with me as soon as you can. We need to discuss something.” It was my
own voice.
Dear God, even I don’t remember saying these words! ”The Taylor family has a lot of connections in the
underworld,” Ashton exined with uncharacteristic patience. “Once they got a hold of your phone and
analyzed the data, it wasn’t difficult to imitate your voice.”
“This was imitated by AI?” I asked in amazement, my eyes as wide as saucers. I had heard a lot
regarding the advancement of AI within the industry recently, so it urred to me that this may be one
of its applications.
Holden smiled smugly as he ced the dictaphone back in his pocket. “Those machines work, no
doubt. But the end result is too stiff and inorganic. My new girlfriend is the queen of mimicry. She can
literally imitate any style of anybody you can think of. Especially those in bed… hehe. It’s a new
experience every night.”
“Mr. Taylor, your tastes are… rather exotic,” I said ufortably. The extent of his lust has left me
speechless.
But if this was what it took to gain Marcus’s trust, albeit falsely, it would still be a big help. At this
comforting thought, I breathed a reluctant sigh of relief.
Though Holden was Ashton’s man, he wouldn’t use the imitated voice to harm Marcus as the interests
of the Taylor family were at stake. Like it or not, he was the best candidate for this mission.
Ashton did not fail to notice the change in my expression. I looked up and met his weary eyes. “Now
would you believe me?” he asked before I could say anything.
I turned towards Holden. He was a wily fox who only cared about the interests of his family. He must
want something in return for his help.
Ashton must have dealt with him beforehand. Probably even agreed to his unreasonable demands. I
turned away and looked at Ashton in earnest. “If you are willing to help Marcus, why did you mention
having topete with GW Group and drive the share price down?”
White Corporation was in shambles. Foreign investment took the opportunity to encourage the
shareholders to sell their shares for scraps.
When Fuller Corporation joined the fray, nobody felt secure.
Otherwise, Emery wouldn’t have promised me so heartily to look into it.

Ashton took a deep breath and sat up straight. His dark eyes suddenly shed with a glint of danger.
“So ording to you, the way for me to repay Marcus was to pay for hispany which is currently in
a mess at a high price, at a loss to Fuller Corporation. Is that it?”
His gaze was so fierce it looked as though it would pierce right through me.
I frowned with difort at being stared at like that.
Even apanyrger than White Corporation had things that they want hidden. The fact that Leonard
Yondel had embezzled was not even considered out of the ordinary for someone like Ashton.
It felt like he had already decided that I did not know my boundaries in handling Marcus’s case. He had
intentionally exposed these to see the limits of which I would disregard him, my husband, by helping
Marcus.
After Reba, I was more familiar than anybody with Ashton’s possessive nature. I sighed heavily. “I
have never thought that there was anything wrong with the situation. Marcus had already thought of a
solution. If he hadn’t disappeared, it wouldn’t have turned into the mess it is today.”
After a brief pause, I reached out and touched Ashton’s hand. “Think of how you take pains to protect
and advance the interests of Fuller Corporation. The only thing that Marcus’s parents left for him is
White Corporation. I hope that we can help him salvage his family business. It’s not aboutpelling
you to buy his entirepany to save it, or to have any foreignpany acquire it. Do you think we
can do that?”
