When There Is Nothing Left But Love (Ashton And Scarlett)

Chapter 764

“Before you came, we had a fight with Rachel. We’re all bruised and battered,” I explained, with an automatic glance toward Ashton.

Nora’s eyes widened. “God! Why didn’t you include me for this?”

“Don’t talk nonsense!” Linda chastised. “It’s already happened, and Rachel must be holding a grudge. It’s hard to tell how she would make things difficult for us in the future.”

I pursed my lips, deep in thought. Armond had a point.

Though I did not like Rachel, it was indisputable that she was a capable employee of the Corporation. If it weren’t so, Ashton wouldn’t have gone through the trouble himself of hiring her all the way from Ustrana.

Aside from the fact that Ashton had no romantic interest in her whatsoever, her skillset and professionalism were second to none, and Ashton valued her for it.

 

If Rachel left in a rage, the only one at a loss would be Fuller Corporation.

“Alright then. Do you still have work to do?” Nora asked. “If you don’t, we’ll head over to Grandpa’s for dinner. It’s harvest season for the fruits he had grown in his yard.”

 

“What a glutton!” Linda teased. “We still have a meeting to attend. There still isn’t a concrete plan to deal with the situation at the base, and we can’t afford to delay this any longer.”

I nodded in agreement. “There are some pear trees outside the base,” I informed Nora. “They’re ripe enough to be eaten. Go and amuse yourself. We’ll call you once the meeting ends.”
