In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall)

Chapter 1572

I thought Audrey would get over Shaun after that day. However, her smile seemed to disappear ever

since, and she did not have much of an appetite. She did not even talk much with Summer and

Gregory.

Feeling helpless, I had no choice but to seek advice from Emery. After all, she had many experiences

with kids.

Around half an hour after hanging up the phone, the Moore family’s car appeared at the villa’s gate.

Without even greeting us, Emery walked right toward Audrey, who was drawing on the grass. She

squatted down and started chatting with the latter.

I somehow felt relieved when I saw her confident expression. Someone that can lift Audrey’s spirit up

has finally come.

Yet, in less than two minutes, Emery walked toward me, shrugging her shoulders. At that instant, I

knew even she could not do anything.

“And here I thought the problem’s solved.” I let out a long sigh. “You’ve raised Xavier all by yourself.

How could you not know how to deal with Audrey? What did you say to her?”

“What else could I say? I’ve tried my best to talk some sense into her and to comfort her.” Emery

looked at me with a helpless expression.

I rolled my eyes upon hearing that. What she did is no different than what we’ve done. I wouldn’t have

asked for her help if I knew this was all that she’s capable of.

My heart fell with a thud as I stared at Audrey’s despondent figure.

If only she got her parents to accompany her since she was small, maybe she would have been able to

socialize. However, John had been putting all his time searching for me and building his career. Thus,

Audrey stayed at home most of the time and had no chance to mix with people. That’s why she can’t

get over Shaun as he’s the only one she’s got. In short, this is all our fault.

“Don’t worry too much. We’ll find a way eventually. As the saying goes, it’s up to the doer to undo the

knot.” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Do you mean that we should get Shaun back here?”

I did think of that option, but I would not want to take it if we still had other choices.

“Well, not necessarily.” Emery shifted her gaze at Audrey.” Since she wants to see him, why don’t we

take her to him? Let her witness how well Shaun is doing in his new family. Maybe then, she would be

able to let go of him.”

Upon saying that, Emery mumbled to herself, “Seems to me raising a boy is much easier…”

Displeased by her mutterings, I thought to myself, She’s always so competitive. I understand if she

wants to compete in other aspects, but she shouldn’t act so when it comes to a child’s growth. I

objected, “Even though a son might be more independent, the happiness when having a daughter is

irreplaceable. Both have their benefits and shortcomings. Since we’re destined to be their parents, it’s

our responsibility to protect them.”

Emery shrugged. “Maybe I’m used to growing up alone. I could never understand the happiness of

sticking together all the time. But, you’re most probably right. So, please ignore what I’ve said just now.”

I responded with a smile. I don’t blame you.

I had known Emery for a long time, and I was aware of the person that she was. Even though she was

not close with her siblings, she was a passionate person when it came to love. Back when she was in

love with Hunter, she could not even bear to leave him for a second. Her current aloofness was merely

a form of self-protection due to extreme disappointment.

One wouldn’t get hurt if one doesn’t love.

After clearing my thoughts, I approached Audrey, intending to take her to see Shaun.

It had been more than a week since Yuna took Shaun away. I figured now was a reasonable time to

pay them a visit.

Audrey’s lips curled into a smile when she heard me mentioning Shaun. Without a second thought, she

skipped back to her room and got changed.

Staring at Audrey’s overjoyed behavior, Emery crossed her arms in front of me. “Why don’t you send

someone to check on Shaun’s situation first? It would be bad if you guys run into any inappropriate

scenes. Should that happen, it would be harder for Audrey to let go of him then.”
