When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 1681


    Chapter 1681 Exin


    He was too overbearing. Previously, I would have already taken Summer’s side and gone against him.


    Yet, at that point, I could only frown as I waited silently for the way everything would turn outter.


    Fortunately, Summer’s true nature was a kind girl. Knowing that we wouldn’t hurt her intentionally, she


    decided to reveal to us her secret obediently.


    “Two years ago, Mr. Cress apanied me to the entrance ball of my college. Everyone who saw us


    together thought that he was my father. I’d never examined our looks, but from that day onward, a seed


    of suspicion got nted in my mind.”

    She then abruptly stopped as though she felt bad about it.


    However, even if she didn’t finish her words, what happened afterward was predictable.


    With her strong talent in Math, she started to recall how Jared stuck close to her all the time. As a


    result, everything Jared did before, which she thought was the care from a teacher, had evolved into


    the hidden affection from a father.


    Silence enveloped the cemetery. The three of us stood in front of Macy’s tombstone, lost for words.


    A long whileter, I finally managed to regain myposure. I struggled to appear calm as I tried to


    talk to Summer. “How much do you know?”


    Feeling that the question was a bit inappropriate after giving it a thought, I rephrased it. “Tell us


    everything that you know.”


    I believed that with Summer’s intelligence, she could find out the truth with ease. However, there was


    always a possibility that Jared would take advantage and twist the truth. To help her out, I had to know


    the process of her investigation.


    Summer nodded calmly. “I only took his and my hair to conduct a paternity test. That was the only thing


    that I did. He doesn’t even know that I’ve found out that he’s my biological father.”


    “That’s all?” I breathed a sigh of relief inwardly at her answer. It’s better than what I imagined.


    She repeated my words as she continued, “That’s all. I know that there is a reason for Mr. Cress and


    the both of you to hide the truth from me, so I don’t dare to investigate it publicly. I didn’t want you to


    worry.”


    “Do you think that we won’t be worrying now?” Ashton spoke coldly, clearly reprimanding her.


    I could understand his feeling. After all, he had been through the same before, getting torn by the


    biological rtionship that he couldn’t make his own decision. How could he not be upset now that


    Summer was going to take the same path, isting and distancing herself from us because of Jared?


    “Let me talk to her.” I intentionally lower my voice, hoping tofort him.


    Thankfully, he chose to do me a favor, turned around, and stepped aside to give us time to converse.


    Peace washed over me as I gazed at his muscr back. When I turned around to take in Summer’s


    darkened face, I decided to take my time instead of starting the conversation right away.


    After staring at Macy’s photo for two seconds, I bent down and sat on the stairs beside her tombstone


    to pretend that we were sitting side by side.


    By doing so, it was as though Macy was present beside me at that instant. The thought caused a


    sincere smile to crawl onto my face. I then cast my eyes down and mumbled, “Your daughter isn’t a bit


    like you at all. She’s so good at keeping secrets, even managing to keep me in the dark.”


    Summer didn’t react as she remained standing silently at the side. However, her rolling eyes gave her


    away, proving that she was in deep thought at the moment.


    Seeing that, I changed my tone to make it more targeting, as I wanted to get her attention this time. “I’m


    such a disqualified adoptive mother that she didn’t dare to call you mom in front of me. What a failure.


    Don’t you think so, Macy?”


    Atst, Summer didn’t stay indifferent anymore as she muttered infort, “Mommy, it isn’t like that.


    You treat me well. I’m the one…”


    She seemed to be suffering. Yet, no words could describe her feeling at the instant, so she could only


    shut her mouth after a while of struggling with her words.


    After treating her as my biological daughter for years, how could I feel good when she was sad?


    Anyways, whoever had started the trouble should end it. Perhaps only the truth could smooth out all


    the uncontroble variables.


    Hence, I said, “I’ll tell you everything that happened in the past in front of your mother today.”
