Chapter 914

That was unexpected. After everything that had happened to Sally, she moved to the suburbs of K City

for a change of environment. I assumed she would be living out the rest of her life peacefully herself.

Never did I expect her to find a new partner, much less a kid.

I replied, “That’s good to know. After all, she spent half her life embroiled with the White family. Now

that she’s found someone she wants to start a family with, she won’t be lonely anymore.”

Cameron nodded. “Indeed. As we age, we fear loneliness. That’s why you and Ashton should hurry up

and have kids to liven up the house. Look at Emery, her child’s almost six months old now. Don’t worry,

I’ll pass my work responsibilities to Nick and help you with child-rearing.”

“I’ll just let nature take its course. Besides, Summer is practically under your care now. You’ll have a

hard time handling two kids.”

“No biggie. I mean, isn’t your dad very free nowadays? Get him a child to curb that bad temper of his.”

She laughed at her own words.

Afraid that Summer might wake up, we tiptoed our way out of her room.

After my chat with Cameron, I drove over to Fuller Corporation to meet Ashton for dinner. In the lobby, I

saw Stella coming out of the lift, holding a pink lunchbox. Her rosy cheeks radiating with happiness. Is

she dating?

“Ms. Collins!” My sudden greeting almost caused her to drop her lunchbox.

“M-Mrs…” Her face turned pale from shock. I felt a pang of guilt for frightening her.

“I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to scare you. I thought you’d seen me.” She was probably too immersed in her

own happiness to notice her surroundings.

Stella took a few deep breaths to calm her palpitating heart. “I’m so sorry Mrs. Fuller! I wasn’t paying

attention.”

“No need to apologize. It’s my fault for calling you out suddenly. Are you… dating someone?”

She instantly hid the lunchbox behind her. “No! I was just delivering for a f-friend.”

Judging from her coy response, she either just started dating or had a crush on someone. “Go for it!

Women look the most charming when they’re taking the lead.”

Stella paused for a few moments before looking up at me. “Mrs. Fuller, it really isn’t like that.”

“I know. I know. Don’t worry about it.” I patted her shoulder before entering the lift. It sure is good to be

young.

Just as I arrived on the floor of Ashton’s office, I saw one of his secretaries printing some documents.

She was flustered by my presence. “Mrs. Fuller, you’re here!”

Although her expression seemed a bit off, I paid no heed. “Is Ashton inside?”

“He is.”

As usual, I entered his office without knocking and saw him in front of his desk, buttoning up his shirt.

Hearing footsteps, he shouted, “Get lost!”

That startled me for a moment. The atmosphere in his office was dreary. “Who made you this angry?”

He paused his hands and looked up at my voice and his expression softened upon seeing my face.

“What brings you here? Aren’t you supposed to be visiting Summer?”

I walked over to his side, intending to help him button the rest. Then I noticed the red patches on his

neck. “What happened?”

“Joseph’s not here. The other secretary was careless and spilled some hot water on me.”

Hearing that, I hurriedly went to the cupboard to get an ointment for his scald. I made Ashton sit on his

chair as I unbuttoned the rest of his shirt. There were large red patches on his chest. “If there’s really

no one reliable, get Joseph to come back and leave the issues in Moranta to someone else.”

“There are too many things to handle there. I won’t feel safe unless it’s Joseph. Although, I’ll be happy

if you come to visit me more. Will you?”

Looking at his reddened chest made my heart ache. I nodded. “All right. Summer’s with Mom, and I

have nothing going on anyway. I’ll see what I can help around the office.”
