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

After some thought, I told her, “I think you can get to know Linda. She definitely knows more than I do.”

“Linda?” she asked in confusion. “Is she a love rival too?”

“Sure. You have to pick me up, though. Actually, you might as well come with dinner.”

“Why should I make dinner? Aren’t we going out to a restaurant?”

“Armond had gastric problems. I’m telling you – he’s crazy. He doesn’t eat anything that’s not to his standard. And I have to help him manage all three meals, or I might lose my job!”

She looked envious. “What about you let me do that instead? I’m sure I’ll take great care of him.”

“Okay! You’re in charge of his meals from now on.” I was more than excited to hand that over to her. After all, I would be incredibly busy once the Fuller Corporation’s project started.
