When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 1284
Pausing for a moment, Emery shifted her gaze toward Hunter. “It seems that I have overestimated the
rtionship we once shared given that you can tolerate Delh’s violent actions. I consider myself to
have been blind in the past. From now onward, there is nothing left of our so-called rtionship.”
Furrowing his eyebrows, it was apparent that Hunter was shocked.
“Impossible!” Delh reacted with greater defiance. “Other than you, our family doesn’t have any other
powerful enemies. You are just making excuses!”
“Delh!” Overwhelmed with shame, Hunter stopped her.
“Did I say anything wrong? Hunter, you couldn’t clean up your own mess because you didn’t want to
stain your reputation as a professor. So, I had to do it for you. But look at you now! In the midst of me
being bullied by your ex, you choose to lecture me instead? I am now beginning to doubt whether your
feelings for me are true.” Outraged, Delh switched the focus of her anger right in front of us.

It seemed that she wasn’t very smart, she was oblivious to the fact that the Moore Residence wasn’t
the ce for her own family squabbles.
“I don’t care whether your feelings for each other are true. Delh, take a good look at thewyer
representing me.” Emery nce at me before adding inly, “Be prepared to hear from mywyer.
Since you dare challenge me, I will dly y your game to your heart’s content.”
Given Emery’s stature, she could hire any topwyer in the city she wanted. Handing the task to me
was just her way of being polite.
As for me, I just wanted to use the opportunity to scare Delh.
After hesitating for a split second, I collected myself and smiled slightly, “That’s right, Ms. Delh
Perkins. Let me introduce myself again. I, Scarlett Stovall, am awyer from Stovall Law Firm. From
this moment on, I will represent Ms. Emery Moore in this assault-rted case. You will be hearing from
my firm soon. As this will be my first case as awyer, it will be a wonderful opportunity for me to
demonstrate my prowess. So don’t expect me to show you any mercy.”
Hiding malice behind a smile was a necessary skill everywyer practiced. Obviously, I am now one of
them.
Realizing that there was no way she could escape a few years of prison, Delh’s face turned pale.
Just as her knees buckled, she lost her bnce and copsed into Hunter’s arms.
“Scarlett, you have been pregnant before and know that emotional shock is bad for pregnant mothers.
Why do you need to frighten her?” Hunter was upset.
As all the goodwill I felt toward him had long since dissipated, I was further angered at the sight of
Hunter defending Delh.
“If a pregnantdy can’t take the shock, should a burn victim take it then? Do you know that when the
acid came into contact with Emery, she fainted immediately? After an operation thatsted hours, do
you even know that she has been unable to sleep properly for thest few days?”
During such times, men could be so tactless to utter such ridiculous words.
I used to feel that Hunter was someone attentive. But now, it seemed that he will indiscriminately
protect any woman by his side, regardless of who she was. The one person he truly loved was himself.
Triggered by my words, Emery, who was silent for a long while, let out a deep sigh. She then asked,
“Hunter, you clearly know me very well. I would never deny something that I had done. Now, do you
believe me when I tell you that I had nothing to do with what happened to Delh’s family?”
Hunter took a deep breath before replying solemnly, “I believe you.”
When Delh, who was leaning against him, heard his reply, she wanted to protest further. However, he
held her back with all his strength.
“Good.” Emery smirked as she shifted her gaze to her front as if she was talking to no one. “In that
case, I’ll take this as an admission on your part that I have never done anything to harm you. Hence,
this matter solely revolves around Delh plotting the assault. Based on that, I will seek justice for what
she has done.”
“How can you do this!” Delh objected. Her dejected expression from just a moment ago had now
turned into one of anger. She scowled, “This is just a misunderstanding. And yet, you insist on
destroying us!”
