When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 1727
Chapter 1727 A Bad Actor
“You got the point,” Emma teased. “Indeed your intelligence is simr to a pig’s, despite your good
look.”
John rolled his eyes helplessly. “Can you treat a patient more nicely?”
Emma replied without hesitation, “No.”
I burst into a chuckle. My heart secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
No one could predict how many dirty moves Nathaniel still had in his pocket. Hence, the safest way
was to wait and do nothing. Even though John did not agree directly, I was sure he would not act rashly
anymore.

After leaving the hospital, I kept dialing Joseph’s number, but all the calls failed to go through.
In the end, I asked the driver to head toward the headquarter of Fuller Corporation. Luckily, the second
I walked into the lobby, I saw Joseph talking with clients.
I got near him and waited for him. When he was about to stand up and leave, I called him. “Mr.
Campbell.”
Joseph turned around and noticed me. He walked toward meposedly and greeted, “Mrs. Fuller.”
He bowed to me politely just like old times.
He was the one who spent the most time with Ashton. Thus, I trusted him the most, and I thought
maybe I could get some news from him. “Can we talk?”
Joseph did not show any reactions. He scanned the surroundings and nodded slightly. “Okay, Let’s go
upstairs.”
I agreed without hesitation, eager to find out the truth.
Joseph personally made tea for me. It was my favorite tea.
“Thanks.” I took a sip of it. The familiar taste made my heart somehow rx.
After all these years, Joseph had be like a family. I put down the cup and cut to the chase. “Did
you notice that Ashton was acting strangely recently?”
Joseph was stunned momentarily and gave a seemingly official reply. “I’m not sure about it. In terms of
business affairs, Mr. Ashton has always handled it very well. As for private affairs, you have a higher
security clearance than me.”
I was quite disappointed with his response. I thought after so many years of friendship, he would be
more honest with me. Apparently, I overestimated my ce in his heart.
Luckily, I was well prepared for that. With that, I wrapped up my disappointment and went with my
move. “I saw you at the ward this morning. Why did you go and see Wilson and the rest?”
He was left speechless briefly as he did not expect me to know that. A few secondster, he acted like
it was not a big deal. “As his special assistant, I should confirm personally if there was a chance for a
truce.”
He paused and added, “I should thank you for taking care of my part. However, it was their fault,
actually. So, you didn’t have topensate them such a huge sum of money.”
If I did not observe Joseph’s expression closely, I would have lost my courage to move on after hearing
his words. For a second, I nearly thought he had be a heartless man who treated money above
human life for a second. I nearly thought he had be just like Ashton.
Nheless, Joseph’s acting was not as good as Ashton’s. There was a slight trace of concern in his
eyes. That was enough to make me regain my trust toward Ashton.
At that moment, I even forgot to hide my delight as my lips curled into a smile.
Joseph immediately cleared his throat as he noticed his genuine emotions were exposed. “Mrs. Fuller,
let me kindly remind you. It is normal for a man to pursue different things at different ages. Maybe you
should give Mr. Ashton more trust. He was the one who founded thepany. There is no way he will
destroy it.”
Staring at his stern look, I somehow found it amusing.
After being kept in the dark for so long, I could not help but provoke, “So do you mean I should not stop
Ashton from doing business with Nathaniel?”
Joseph was stunned momentarily, but he did not deny it. “Mr. Ashton will make sure you and the kids
have the best life.”
