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

Elated, Summer clapped her hands and snuggled up in Emery’s arms. ”Thank you, Aunt Emery! I love lollipops!”

Emery’s smile deepened when she saw Summer so happy. Seeing that, I asked her sarcastically, “I don’t see you being that patient with Xavier. Is Summer your child instead?”

“How is that the same?” Emery walked over with Summer in her arms. “Summer is a girl, and girls are meant to be pampered. Since Xavier is a boy, he needs to toughen up. Otherwise, he will grow up to be a Mommy’s boy. If that’s the case, I’ll disown him.”

I shook my head and sighed. There was no way to win a verbal argument with Emery.

Emery then continued playing with Summer, and when she saw that I was ready, she prepared to bring Summer out with her. “Alright, let’s get going. We can’t afford to be late again. Lots of doctors these days are really arrogant, and it doesn’t matter who our families are.”

I thought of Professor Zidd’s good temperament and could not help but retort, “Not every doctor is like that. For example, Professor Zidd is a great man.”

Then, I took Summer from her arms and called out to the kitchen, “Mrs. Eriksen, please come out here for a while.”
