In Love, Never Say Never

I felt a little confused. No evidence? Rebecca was right—my fingerprints were on the fruit knife itself, and any forensics department worth their salt would know immediately that I was the perpetrator.

I couldn’t help but suspect that Ashton was hiding something from me. “Did you have something to do with Mrs. Eriksen’s sudden appearance yesterday?”

It was quite obvious that Mrs. Eriksen hadn’t thought of those words by herself. Ashton must have coached her on it beforehand.

He paused before replying, “You want me to watch my wife get shipped off to jail? I have no wish to live as a widower for the next few years.”

I felt rather speechless.

This man had very strange ways of thinking. I didn’t quite know how to respond to him.

I decided it would be better for me to keep my mouth shut.

The new year was just around the corner. Ashton was going to take me back to J City after concluding the company’s new year meeting. However, now that he was injured, it would be very inconvenient for him to move anywhere.

He had handed over the meeting arrangements to Jared and Joe. Since I had already left Fuller Corporation, none of this was my business anymore.

As for the matter with Fuller Corporation, the Stovall family had contacted me through John before I even had a chance to ask them about it. Louis had finally announced when he was going to enter my name into the family register.
