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

Chapter 597

Since Zachary and Cameron were around, flipping Ashton around and bringing him to the toilet in the middle of the night proved much easier. If I happened to be asleep, one of them would rouse themselves and help him to the toilet silently.

I only found out about this when I woke up. I slept through the night, and when I woke up the next morning, Zachary and Cameron had already returned to the hotel.

I had slept very well that night, and it showed on my face. After the doctor cleaned off the rotting flesh, the skin on Ashton’s back had nearly healed completely.

Emery dropped by early in the morning again, but Hunter felt too worried to let her come by herself. Besides, it was nearly new year’s eve, and he didn’t want to deal with the airport crowd that always swelled during this time of the year.

After cajoling her for a while, we all managed to get Emery to return to K City with Hunter.

For the next few days, Zachary and Cameron remained in W City. With them around, I was relieved of much of my caregiving duties and felt much more relaxed.

It was only a few days later that we heard about Old Mr. Crest’s death. Apparently, an investigation into the Crest family’s business activities in W City revealed all sorts of business malpractices they had been involved in. As a result, their factories had been forced to halt production.

The Crest family’s business dealt with the production and distribution of daily items. Although it wasn’t a high-end sort of enterprise, their products faced huge demand because everyone needed those products. The Crest family had established a monopoly in the industry in the past ten years, and almost all the daily items lining the shelves of supermarkets were produced in their factories.

Hence, the Crest family enjoyed a never-ending stream of demand for their goods. This was where most of their immense wealth came from.
