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

Chapter 1660

Chapter 1660 Back To Normal

Despite that, she still wasn’t in good shape. She continued to tremble slightly, and she was still

clutching onto her collar tightly. It was like she was terrified that someone would take it off of her and

ruin her imaginary wedding.

Camelia’s mother finally started bawling out loud and only stopped when she ran out of energy.

Fate was something the older generation understood much better than anyone else. Now that she was

here, naturally, she was going to give her daughter another chance.

In the end, a private ambulance came to fetch Tobias and Camelia away. Her mother planned to take

her overseas to get treatment and therapy, so all of them were going to migrate there and leave their

past behind them.

Marcus’ house was truly deserted now, and eventually, it got seized and closed off by the court. After a

while, a distant relative came to claim it as inheritance along with all the stocks and investment funds.

With that, K City no longer had any trace of the White family.

After Jared moved away, Summer became even more quiet than usual. Apart from when she was

eating, she kept her mouth shut.

I was feeling more down in the dumps than usual after Marcus’ funeral. Ashton was afraid that I would

get too deep in my emotions if I stayed at home for too long and kept trying to get me to go to the

center to, as he put it, keep an eye on Summer.

Of course, I didn’t actually have to keep an eye on her.

I started off by simply sitting there. The last thing I wanted was to be too overbearing and talk over her

since Summer was still the boss in this place. She was still young, so if I tried to take over too much,

she would definitely lose her pride in front of all her staff.

The contrast was more than obvious. Summer was always surrounded by people, and I was only sitting This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

at one side. Compared to when I was at home, I began zoning out even more.

Summer was still the kind girl she had always been. After finishing her current requests, the moment

someone else approached her, she dragged them in front of me.

She pretended to think about it for a second before asking me, “Mommy, Daddy said you used to be a

CEO in your old company. Could you help me out with this one?”

I was more than happy to help. Once I regained my senses, I gave the documents a close once over.

Then I referred to my past experiences and did my best to give a neutral opinion.

After that, Summer started to come to me before finalizing any decisions. Apart from when we went to

bed, we spent almost every waking moment together. Just as Ashton had predicted, we became much

closer and even started taking breaks together. Sometimes we would run off to the mall and go

shopping when we had free time.

About a week later, I received a call from Emery.

“What is going on with the both of you? Even if the business doesn’t work out, we can still have a good

relationship, right? If you don’t want me to invest in your center, just say so. You’re all sneaking around

like this is some kind of top-secret spy mission.”

“Who’s sneaking around?” I glanced at Summer and covered the mouthpiece as I said, “Your Aunt

Emery is calling. Have you been avoiding her?”

“Nope,” Summer said with a shake of her head and an innocent expression on her face. “Aunt Emery

hasn’t come by recently. I was even thinking of going to look for her.”

After her confirmation, I let go of the mouthpiece and replied, “You’ve been sticking with Alexander too

much. Did you two argue or something?”

“Why are you bringing him into this?” Emery asked, clearly a little annoyed. “Then why have neither of

you been home every single time I went over to visit?”

“I’ve been helping Summer out in the center. Aren’t there other people at home? Did you ask them?”

“N-No.”

The atmosphere suddenly quietened down, and we all fell into an awkward silence. It was rare to hear

Emery stutter so much, so I could roughly figure out why exactly she was acting so strangely.

Summer’s center was like a juicy slice of steak that both Emery and Holden had wanted a piece of.

However, because of Ashton, neither of them managed to even get close.

After Wenville became a success, the center finally revisited their projects but didn’t contact Emery or

Holden again. She didn’t want to look for Summer since she was afraid it would seem like she was

pestering her, which was why she didn’t go to the center. She was also afraid that we were avoiding her

because we wanted to protect Summer but couldn’t turn Emery down directly. That’s why she didn’t

approach anyone whenever she went over to visit. She didn’t want to give anyone a hard time.

After finally coming to this conclusion, I couldn’t help but start giggling.

“What are you laughing at?” Emery asked.

“I’m laughing at you!” I said. Emery was once a powerful boss that had appeared on the covers of

financial magazines! Since when had she become so meek and timid? “I’m laughing at how hesitant

you were. We’re a family, remember? If you needed anything, you could have asked. You didn’t have to

tiptoe around.”
