When There Is Nothing Left But Love

Ashton’s face darkened as he glared at Rebecca in silence. At that instant, it was as if there was a drastic drop in the room.

After he walked away with Nick, Cameron raised her hand abruptly.

Slapping hard on Rebecca’s face, she bellowed, “Rebecca, what is wrong with you? Are you looking to stir up trouble!”

Rebecca’s eyes widened in disbelief as she covered her face and asked in despair, “You slapped me because of her?”

Cameron snapped at her with a stern look, “This slap serves as a reminder for you to behave yourself! I wanted you to have a good rest in the hospital, yet you refused. Thanks to you, we are in a mess now!”

“I’m not sick. Why do I need to stay in the hospital? Mom, you’ve changed. What’s going on? It’s Scarlett’s fault, yet why are you punishing me?” Rebecca wailed in grief.

She cried her eyes out, and her high-pitched tone triggered Summer instantly, causing her to burst into tears.

Jackson tried to soothe Summer by all means to no avail. Pursing my lips, I took Summer from him and let her rest on my chest. Patting her back gently, I ignored the mother and daughter duo.

Without hesitation, I descended the stairs and decided to leave at once.

My ears caught the faint voice of Zachary’s indifferent tone from far. “Rebecca, it looks like both Pear Garden and the Moore Residence are not suited for you. I’ve assigned my personal assistant to purchase a landed property for you in South District. Just stay there for your recuperation. Don’t ever cause any troubles again.”

I quickened my pace, not keen on hearing the rest of the conversation. I bet she could only refute Zachary’s words by repeating those few sentences.

Once we were in the car, Summer stopped crying and looked at me with a puzzled look. I cheered up again at the sight of her adorable face.
