When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 1741


    Chapter 1741 Just Get A Divorce


    Only after a long time had passed did I realize that it took half an hour to bake a dish of macaroni and


    cheese, so it would only take longer for a casserole. Worse still, I said I had overslept just now, so I


    would definitely make something simple. As such, that dish shouldn’t appear.


    Argh! He saw right through me, yet he said nothing. Anyway, what else can I say when he’s smirking in


    such a manner? Feeling deted, I admitted, “All right, stopughing at me. I’ll tell you the truth. It was


    Mrs. Kingsley who prepared all these dishes. I only made the chicken soup. I was in a rush, but I was


    worried that it wouldn’t be enough for you. Anyway, Mrs. Kingsley made you this hearty spread


    sincerely. And it makes no difference whoever cooked them…”


    A sliver of guilt crept into me as I spoke. Fearful that John would start getting picky again, I shot


    daggers at him and threatened, “Are you not going to eat, then?”


    Timidly shrinking back, John picked up the fork again. “No, no, of course not. If I don’t finish this, would


    I still be able to eat Mrs. Kingsley’s and your cooking again in the future? I’m no fool.”


    At that, I breathed a sigh of relief. It looks like a patient isn’t all that difficult to handle, after all.


    I watched him eat for some time before it dawned upon me that I hadn’t seen any sign of Emma. While


    opening another lunchbox, I asked, “Where’s Emma? Why hasn’t she returned?”


    “She went home.” John didn’t even bother lifting his head.


    “No, she didn’t. I didn’t see her.” I thought he was referring to the Fuller residence.


    “I’m speaking of her parents’ house.” John swallowed the taco in his mouth before he exined, “It’s


    hectic at my father-inw’spany these days, and she’s their only daughter. It’ll seem unreasonable


    if she doesn’t go back and help out.”


    “So, that’s what the two of you did back when you both went out together every so often?”


    “Yeah.” When John spoke of that, his gaze dimmed. The spoonful of chicken soup in his hand


    remained suspended in mid-air as hemented, “In order to locate you back then, I took their only


    daughter abroad. Since we’re back now, I naturally have to help out whenever possible.”


    For a moment, words eluded me. Love and marriage are never a matter between two people. Instead,


    everything is closely rted.


    Receiving no response from me, John instantly changed the subject. “Ashton kicked you out of the


    company?”


    “How did you know that?” I instinctively eximed. It wasn’t until after I had said that did I realize my


    slip of the tongue and hastily changed my tune. “It’s nothing. Anyway, I wasn’t going to interfere in the


    matters of Fuller Corporation any longer. Furthermore, there’ll only be incessant bickering when two


    people with differing opinions work together. It’s better to split and go our different paths.”


    “Then why don’t you two just get a divorce and go your separate ways?” John suddenly retorted out of


    nowhere.


    I didn’t know whether he truly felt that way or was deliberately teasing me, so I took it to mean the


    latter. Chuckling, I tried to brush it off, countering, “That’s not the same at all. Family and career don’t


    necessarily have to be linked together. Isn’t it nice to both shine in our respective fields before going


    home to each other at the end of the day? If everything we’ve got to say is the same, then only one can


    speak while the other listens. As time goes by, we’ll inevitably lose interest in each other. Ashton has


    always been more visionary than me, so perhaps this time—”


    “I didn’t know when you got so good at lying to yourself.” John didn’t even allow me to finish speaking,


    his eyes that could effortlessly steal the hearts of many young maidens fixated right on me. “Have you


    forgotten Uncle Louis’ identity? Did you think that I wouldn’t know about Ashton trafficking drugs if you


    don’t say anything?”


    Then, he continued, “What kind of people are involved in that? They are all heinous and callous people


    who only have money in their eyes. Once you have a foot in it, you can never get out for the rest of


    your life. You are well aware of Chanaea’s stance toward drugs, right? No matter how smart Ashton is,


    he will make mistakes. At that time, you’ll also be a fugitive with him. Don’t be a fool, Letty. Put


    away your hopes toward someone like him.”


    I didn’t dare look him in the eye. I merely hung my head silently without uttering a single word.


    As an independent person, I naturally had the right to give my all to the man I love. Regardless of how


    irrational it appeared, it was my own choice.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.
