When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 1206
Left with no choice, I could only cook up an excuse and replied indifferently, “Our personalities sh.”
“Huh?” Being smart as she was, Emery was not convinced. “Are you kidding me? What sh could
there be? It’s been ten years. Any sharp edges should’ve been sanded off. Scarlett Stovall, you’d better
tell me the truth!”
I knew that she would catch me if I put on an act, so I kept quiet for a while before I came up with an
answer. “As you’ve already known, I was kidnapped a while ago. The kidnapper is Ashton’s enemy. I
asked him to stop his revenge, but he refuses, so I divorce him. We won’t get back together again.” I
tried to appear as indifferent as possible.
Unsurprisingly, my reply was too much for her to take in, so she was obviously stupefied. Knitting her
brows, she gave it some thought and said, “I recently heard some rumors that the Ziegler family feuds
with the Fullers in private. After John exposed the scandals of the Ziegler family on Facebook, I thought
that you and the Fullers are on the same side… However, why must you opt for divorce since there’s
no issue in your rtionship? Do you know that you’re just making room for another woman by doing
so?”
I found it odd that she had been nervously emphasizing the women around Ashton after she came in.
At first, I thought of telling her the truth, but the fewer people knew about it, the lower the risk, so I could
only continue to y along.
“It doesn’t matter anymore.” Putting down my cutlery, I took a piece of tissue and wiped my mouth. “You
know, I was extremely terrified and helpless when I almost lost my babies. But he didn’t give a damn.
Not only did he not back down, but he also broke Mitchell’s arms and angered the Ziegler family. He’s
out of his mind. I don’t want to be with him anymore as I don’t want to fail as a mother again.”
Emery fell silent. After a long while, she let out a sigh and asked, “Have you really thought it through?”
“Yes. I’ve even signed the divorce agreement.” I spoke feebly, but it made me look indifferent as if I had
really gotten over it and was unfazed by it.
For some reason, Emery actually believed me as she cast her eyes down andmented, “You were
finally together after much difficulty, but why would things turn out like this?”
She looked particrly sad as she murmured to herself. If I had not known that her rtionship with
Hunter was stable, I would have thought that she had been wounded in her rtionship
Knowing that she had only good intentions, I did not want her to worry, so I patted her on the back of
her hand and assured her, “Don’t worry about me. I’ll live the rest of my life well for the sake of my kids
no matter what.”
She looked up with a mysterious gaze. “You’re so different today.”
Being born a clever hunter, she widened her beautiful eyes as she gazed at me, as though she could
see right through me.
Feeling guilty, I raised an eyebrow and turned my face away while exining, “Maybe because I got
scared and didn’t get a good restst night.”
It was not a very convincing exnation. I did not know if Emery was buying it as she simply stared at
me for a while in silence.
Meanwhile, a maid came in from the courtyard and reported, “Ms. Stovall, an elderly man named Ezra
Grant asks to see you.”

We’ve only met once, but why does this cunning mane? He must be up to something.
On second thought, I knew that I should not be rude to him. Moreover, Ashton and I had made known
publicly that we had a massive falling-out, so I had no reason to avoid seeing his enemy. “Bring him in.”
Emery helped me up to walk over to sit in the living room as she asked, “What a rare sight for Ezra to
be visiting the Stovall residence.”
“You even know about this?” I smiled. Emery was so good at gathering information that even Holden
would be put in the shade.
