When There Is Nothing Left But Love

Leaning against the sofa, he pinched his forehead. “My guess is the former. But, there are not many people who are higher in position than Uncle Louis. Besides, none of these people have any dealings with the Fullers. Therefore, he is still investigating.”

He knitted his brows. “Do you know who he is?”

I shook my head. “I’m not sure. I’ll need to take another look.” Looking at him, I hesitated briefly. “About going to R Province, I may have to delay it, or perhaps Ashton may come along with us.”

He pursed his lips in displeasure. “Why does Ashton need to follow you wherever you go?”

“Why can’t I follow wherever my wife goes? Aren’t you worried about being laughed at for constantly clinging to your sister?” Ashton and Louis came down from the study on the second floor.
