When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 1176
Summer ran over and hugged Jackson tightly. “Mr. Jackson, it’s good to see you again!”
Jackson smiled as he stroke Summer’s head gently while thewyer beside him started speaking
professionally, “Ms. Stovall, Ie to represent Mr. Jackson to discuss your child’s custody.”
I turned my back against Summer and whispered, “Don’t say this in front of the kid.”
Then, I gave a gesture to Mrs. Eriksen, signaling her to bring Summer upstairs. After that, the three of
us sat down in the living room.
Jackson sat right opposite of me, with his arms crossed. He had been avoiding my eyes since arrival,
while hiswyer was the one who did all the talking. “Ms. Stovall, you and Mr. Jackson are not blood-
rted to Summer, and both of you were friends of the deceased Ms. Markle. Mr. Jackson thinks that
since you are starting to focus on your own baby, it will affect Summer’s childhood. He hopes that you
will voluntarily give up your custody, then there will be no need to bring this to the court.”

Thiswyer seemed to be an experienced one, as he knew they would not find any actual negligence in
how I treated Summer in terms of thew. The only possible way they could win this was going after
the emotional aspect. Normally for custody cases, the judge would also fully consider the emotional
condition of the guardian.
I cast Jackson a cold nce and responded to thewyer. “I don’t know if Jackson has told you that I,
too, am aw major, and I just passed the judicial examination recently. So you can save all your
professional moves on me. I have the ability to take care of Summer alone. As for my own baby,
Summer has always wantedpany. Thus it would not affect her in any negative way. My love
towards the two of them won’t be biased.”
As I noticed Jackson was still sitting there indifferently, as if all these had nothing to do with him, I
started to get furious. I deliberately turned the topic against him. “Jackson also has his own child. Can
he guarantee he will treat Summer with a fair share?”
Both of them were obviously well-prepared for my usation, as they did not show any reaction to my
words.
Thewyer nced at Jackson as if he was getting thetter’s approval. Seeing that Jackson nodded
his head, thewyer turned to me again and spoke firmly, “The child of Ms. Alder that you mentioned is
not actually the child of Mr. Jackson. And Mr. Jackson can guarantee that he will never have another
child. So he will love the two kids with all his heart. Is there anything else?”
I was befuddled at what I heard. “How could this be?”
Jackson did not lift his head but said with a low voice, “It has nothing to do with you. All you need to
know is that I will love Summer more than you do. I will not let her stay in the battlefield of the Fullers.”
This upheaval had caught me off guard. Jackson’swyer had clearly noticed my confusion and started
firing a bunch of questions at me. “When Summer grows up and finds out that she looks different from
her sibling, how would you answer her? And most importantly, you went through miscarriage twice,
didn’t you? And you even got kidnapped! Mr. Jackson doubts that you and Mr. Fuller are fit to be
parents.”
My head was in agony until the moment they left. Jackson’swyer was undoubtedly a good debater,
while every one of his words pierced through my heart mercilessly. As awyer, he was doing a brilliant
job. But as another human, he was way too mean. I understoodw too well to know that the kidnap
alone could alter the judge and the jury’s decision.
Jackson had a wife, and even though they were not really wealthy, they still would be able to provide
Summer a decent life. Hence, I knew I stood no chance, even if we were financially better off.
Compared to a luxurious but risky lifestyle, the judge would probably prefer a normal yet stable life for
the child.
