As I turned around, my eyes widened the moment they met Ashton’s naked body. The man was now wearing nothing but a black boxer.
Once again, I turned my back at him, saying helplessly, “Mr. Fuller, could you wear your clothes and put your shower off for later?”
“It seems like you’re unhappy with the outcome of our meeting just now. Well, if you’re here talking to me as the secretary of the Murphy Corporation’s president, I can tell you that your words carry no weight. I will only talk directly with Armond. So, Scarlett, are you here talking to me as my wife or Armond’s secretary?”
I was at a loss for words. After hesitating for a while, I answered, “As your wife.”
Hearing that, the man smiled, his expression softened. “There are clothes for you in the wardrobe. It’s late now. Take your shower and have an early night.”

Apart from the properties in J City and R Province, I had no other assets.
Thus, my only way out was to persuade Ashton to change his mind. Since the incident was still under investigation, perhaps things might take a different turn. Besides, my gut feeling told me that this was not an ordinary burglary.
After some time, I walked toward the wardrobe and opened it to see some branded nightwear inside.
