When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 1172
The moment I reached my bedroom, I heard a loud banging from the door. It sounded like
someone falling. Without wasting any time, I rushed over curiously while holding my belly. I was startled
by the person who was standing at the door. It was Ste, whom I had not met for a long time.
“Why are you here?” I thought since Ashton and Joseph were already here, there should be no need
for another assistant.
Ste responded courteously while carefully sorting out her messy hair in front of her forehead. “I am
here to deliver these important documents for the manager. I need to hand them over to him
personally.”
Upon hearing this, I noticed she was holding a leather suitcase in her hand. It did look like something
important, so I reached out my hand to take it. “Alright, give it to me then.”
To my surprise, Ste avoided my hand and backed up a few steps while saying hesitantly, “I am sorry,
Mrs. Fuller. But Mr. Fuller emphasized that these documents are ssified and should never be given
to anyone without his permission. He specifically asked me to treat this upromisingly.”
I had never felt so offended before. Thus I responded rudely, “Do you really think that I will betray my
own husband? Or are you saying that I, as a shareholder of thispany, is not as trustworthy as you,
a mere assistant?”
“No, Mrs. Fuller…” Ste tried to exin; her face paled in nervousness while trembling incessantly.
“Please do not overthink. I have no intention at all to suspect you, but Mr. Fuller said…”

Honestly, I used to show no interest whatsoever in these kinds of documents. However, Ste’s
reactionpletely triggered my curiosity. The more she showed resistance, the more eager I was to
find out the content.
I stepped forward abruptly to snatch the suitcase from her. Seeing that I was her superior and that I
was pregnant, she did not dare to resist at all. With a reluctant look, she let go of it without any fight. “I
will send the documents to the study. No one will find out that you gave it to me, so your job here is
completed. You can go back now.”
Ste froze on the spot with a troubled expression, but she could onlyply in the end. “Thank you,
Mrs. Fuller. Please don’t ever mention that it is from me.”
Before she left, she took a final nce at the suitcase, while aplicated expression loomed over her
face.
I could not care less about her feeling, as all my attention was upon those documents. I shut the door
gently, opened the suitcase, and took out the documents cautiously.
Fuller Corporation and Winzone Trading Finance Project Agreement
A finance project?
Didn’t Ashton promise me that he will stay low and not jump into any business expansions at the
moment?
I initially thought the documents were merely a proposal draft. But, I was astonished to see Ashton’s
signature clearly at the bottom of the contract, with the official stamp of ourpany, which meant this
was actually a fully functional legal contract. My heart skipped a beat the moment Iid my eyes on its
date… It was on the day I discovered I was pregnant.
Now I understood why Ste acted so strangely earlier. When I signed the share license agreement,
one of the terms was that Fuller Corporation could notunch a finance project within two years. Yet
Ashton broke it in less than a month. What is he up to?
Besides this contract, how many more secrets is he hiding from me?
Taking a deep breath to clear my head, I tried my best to remain calm. A momentter, I put those
documents back in the suitcase and ced them in the study.
When I walked past the corridor, I stepped towards the fence to check on the living room.
Gazing from high above, I could identify Ashton right away without any difficulty. A group of men
surrounding him was seemingly overwhelmed with excitement. I could not hear their conversation, but
they were looking at him in a way like staunch believers were worshipping their own god.
Just then, my phone vibrated in my pocket. I took out my phone, and it showed a WhatsApp notification
from Holden.
