When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 1693
Chapter 1693 Being Targeted
“I’m your wife. I love you. No matter what happens, I’ll always be by your side. Understand?”
Something shed through Ashton’s ck orbs as heughed. “Understood.” He grinned
mischievously.
I’ve been so patient inforting him, yet he’s still unwilling to reveal the truth. How much longer do I
need to wait?
I was starting to get frustrated over it. Meanwhile, Ashton slowly rolled up the bottom of my pants and
massaged my leg.
This makes me think of the famous saying that a married man only tries to butter up with his wife when
he makes a mistake or ns to.
While thinking that, I wanted to grab Ashton’s hand when he suddenly spoke. “Nathaniel met up with
me today. He wanted to start a business with me in producing fake bills.”
My hand, which was in mid-air, was immediately lowered. Thankfully, he said it right on time.
Otherwise, it was going to be a different story.
“How could he have the guts to do that when our country has strict rules regting it?” I asked.
While massaging my leg, he exined it nonchntly, “He’s nning to produce it here and export it
overseas, so that it’s difficult to trace. He’s smart to base it in Chanaea. Since he has no criminal
record, there’s a high chance he wouldn’t be extradited if the business was exposed. He was also the
one who provoked Quince and Lucas. They aim to make the police suspicious about Fuller Corporation
so that all of my actions will be monitored. Now that the police are keeping a close eye on money
It was the same situation everywhere. Nobody would remember the things good about you but would
start pointing fingers when you made a single mistake.
Sometimes, it would take a great deal of restraint for one to be nice in this world.
If I were Ashton, I would feel disappointed as well. After all, he is getting such treatment from two
foreigners with a bad reputation, despite paying years of taxes and providing jobs to many.
“There’s nothing to be afraid of if we’re innocent. I believe in you, and so do everyone else in this
household, and that’s enough,” I said earnestly while lowering my head. “Don’t forget that you would
never get defeated by people that you don’t even care about.”

Narrowing his eyes, the man stood up and nted a kiss on my forehead. “Don’t worry about it. I’ll go
get a shower first.”
After saying that, he turned to the bathroom, and the sound of running water came soon after.
My heart finally calmed down after talking with him for long.
However, I was suddenly reminded of the incident regarding Reba and Roger seconds away from
sleep. Ashton had exined about Nathaniel but not about them.
When I thought about that, I quickly snapped awake and looked up. However, there was nothing I could
do as Ashton was sound asleep.
Therefore, I could only hug him tightly while gritting my teeth in anger. I can’t believe I just realized how
tricky he was! He only chose to exin some of the problems. What a jerk!
I was awakened by Mrs. Eriksen’s knock on the door. ncing at the clock, I noticed it was barely
seven o’clock in the morning.
“Is something the matter, Mrs. Eriksen?” I asked sleepily, barely opening my eyes.
“An officer from the military wants to meet with Mr. Fuller. He has been waiting for quite some time,”
Mrs. Eriksen answered loudly.
The sun is barely up, and yet they’re here to disturb us. After grumbling in my heart, I finally started to
think logically. “Okay. Go on and tend to him first. We’lle down in a minute.”
Letting out a deep sigh, I managed to open my eyes and looked toward Ashton. However, I realized he
was still asleep despite the huge racket from just now.
When my vision got clearer, I noticed that he seemed to be having some nightmares. His eyebrows
were furrowed as the nightmare terrorized him in his sleep.
