When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 1344


    Emery spoke our minds though. “You cheated on me, but you’re asking me to date you again for a


    stupid excuse like that? And you want me to forgive my would-be killer, and you want that woman to


    deliver your baby? So I don’t even have a say in that? Sometimes I wonder if we’ve not dated long


    enough, Hunter. You don’t seem to understand me at all. What makes you think you can tell me what to


    do?”


    At that point, even Emery thought it was pointless talking to him. She shook her head in disdain. “Get


    out. Before I change my mind about sparing you.”


    Hunter’s face fell as she red at Emery intently. But then he remembered how terrifying an angry


    Emery was, so he shot up. “I’m Xavier’s father. Nothing can change that. I’m bowing my head here so


    everyone can live in peace, but you burned that bridge, Emery. You’re gonna get what’sing for


    you.”


    Emery tossed him a dark look. “Is that all? Right. F*ck off.”


    Hunter frowned, but he couldn’t say anything, so he stormed out. I looked in his direction, then I


    realized there was a sports car at the gates. “Can I borrow one of your cars?”


    “I thought John took you here.” Emery gave John a weird look. “What are you guys doing?”


    “Just tell me, yes or no,” I insisted.


    Yep, I could imagine John’s smug look without even turning around, but I didn’t care. I didn’t want to let


    him take me around anymore. We did meet some important people, but I could have met them some


    other day, and it would still be the same thing. Not Ashton though. I wouldn’t rest until I saw him safe


    and sound with my own two eyes.


    Emery lent me the most expensive car she had. I quickly went to it, then John knocked on the window


    the moment I revved it up.


    Dammit. “Take your jokes somewhere else, John. I don’t have time today.”


    “I’m not stopping you, so easy with the attitude.” John leaned against the carnguidly. “I wouldn’t have


    opened the firm if I knew you’d be working yourself to the bone. Just when I finally managed to take


    you on a day off, you just had to run off no matter what.”


    Wait. What was that? Was he actuallyining? Gosh, men were getting weird. Where’d the


    stardust crusaders go? Well, I didn’t have time to fool around, so I floored the elerator and dashed


    toward Thora’s hospital.


    Unbeknownst to me, John made a call the moment I left.


    I went to the same elevator and descended down the basement. Then I quickly went to the ce I


    came the night before, but nobody was there to stop me. The corridor was mine to explore, so explore I


    did. My first stop—the room Ashton was in.


    Darkness. Nothing but darkness. I fumbled around for a switch, then I flicked it on. The lights shone


    brightly, but the room was empty. Well, that’s it then.


    I went back up, feeling nothing but emptiness inside. Everything around me looked ethereal when I


    came back out. I couldn’t understand what happened. There was no need for Joseph and the


    bodyguards to guard that room if it was empty, and if it was, then why did he knock me out?


    There was only one possibility. Someone moved everything in the room somewhere else. John was


    acting weird that morning too, so it was usible.


    I wasn’t looking where I was going, being deep in my thoughts. Eventually, I bumped into someone.


    “Oh, sorry, sorry.” I moved aside to let him pass, but he backed me against the wall, then I looked up.


    The moment I met Ashton’s gaze, I leaped to him, giving him the tightest hug I could. I was afraid he


    might leave me again if I didn’t.Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.
