When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 1691
Chapter 1691 Their Secrets
My heart could not help but throb after seeing how he was still concerned over me despite being in a
bad mood. Unconsciously, I nodded. “Everything went quite well. Summer has always been obedient.
We’re family, so there’s nothing that cannot be solved by talking it through, right?” There was a deeper
meaning behind my words. I hoped Ashton could remember that solving a problem together was way
easier than burdening it on himself.
Although men were the pir of support for families, there was no need for them to force themselves to
take all upon themselves. Their families would always back him up, after all.
Ashton was silent for a moment before answering. “Well, of course. It’s great you managed to reconcile
with her. I’ll be heading homete as I’m a bit busy today, so you should spend some time with her
instead.”
“All right. You should go back to work.”
“Okay. I’m hanging up now.”
After saying that, he wanted to end the call when I suddenly called out to him. “Ashton.”
“I’m still here. What’s the matter?” His tone remained calm.

“I don’t really remember the meaning behind the wedding etiquettes. Can you exin it to me again?” I
asked.
Ashtonughed softly but did not reply.
“Why are youughing?” I questioned.
“It’s nothing.” He seemed to be in a better mood than before. “I think it’s time to rush the editing team
for the wedding footage. Otherwise, you’re never going to stop wondering about the happy memories
from that day. Who knows if you’ll forget about it one day and stop loving me.”
I could only furrow my eyebrows at his joke. “Am I such a heartless person? It’s not like you only treat
me well during my wedding day.” After pondering for a moment, I continued, “Ashton, I’m not a princess
from a fairy tale here to live happily ever after with you. Don’t forget that we’re husband and wife. We’re
supposed to get through the hardest time together as one.”
At that, the man remained silent for a moment. I could tell he had taken my words to heart, just that he
was ying dumb.
If he did not want to tell the truth, no one could force it out of him.
Thus, I could only think of another way. “All right. Summer is calling for me, so I won’t continue to
disturb you. See you at home.”
“Bye.”
Ashton’s car rounded the corner and disappeared a short moment after the call ended.
Just when I nned to leave, I suddenly noticed that a thin figure with tanned skin was currently sitting
where Ashton had sat before. It was no other than Quince.
He had shown up there despite getting ignored by Nathaniel in front of everyonest night. He was
definitely a tough one.
This time, Nathaniel did not ignore him. After talking for some while, they clinked their sses as if they
had agreed on something.
If there were something more troublesome than having two opponents, it would probably be the
opponents teaming up.
They were like humongous spiders that never stopped spinning their web, waiting for Ashton to fall into
their trap.
At that moment, I only had one thought in mind, which was not to be a sitting duck.
I need to find out about everyone’s secrets. Although it would be challenging as they’re trying so badly
to hide it, there’ll still be clues here and there.
As Holden was an expert in digging information, I wanted to text him when I suddenly saw John’s
contact name.
The memories from the past rolled into my mind.
“She seemed to have been forced…”
“Although you don’t want me, you still married a non-virgin…”
“The Fuller Corporation was still starting up that time…”
Could these be somehow rted?
Uneasiness rose within me as I quickly dialed John’s number.
“John, I have something to ask you.”
“Go ahead.”
“Didn’t you find out that Reba’s first child was by force? Did you find out who did it?”
“Why are you suddenly asking about this? It happened years ago.” After some thought, he added, “I
only knew that some hooligans did it, but I didn’t continue investigating the person who gave the
orders. However, it won’t be hard to do so.”
