Chapter 1749

Chapter 1749 All Of You Will Be Reunited

“You are someone who has never been loved before. I understand if you don’t comprehend this. But

since you believe you can put a price on everything in this world, I am willing to give you all my assets

in return for you staying out of our marriage. It should be an easy choice for you, shouldn’t it?”

Nathaniel’s eyes widened as he exploded, “Do you not care if the Stovall and Fuller families are

destroyed along with you?”

Raising the corner of my mouth, I turned to Ashton and looked at him fondly. “Despite being the

daughter of the Stovall family, I cannot bring myself to abandon Ashton. Every moment I spend with

him turns into sweet memories. If both families are ruined because of me, I’m willing to pay for my sins

with my life. At the end of the day, the choice isn’t mine. Just go ahead and do what you want. I hope

you would force me to my doom so that I wouldn’t even need to think about this anymore…”

As soon as I finished, I heard the sound of someone flicking his sleeves. When I turned around, all I

could see was Nathaniel’s leaving silhouette.

With no time to celebrate with Ashton, I knelt down at once and gently slapped Joseph’s face. “Mr.

Campbell, wake up! Joseph…”

Joseph didn’t respond to my calls. I had no choice but to drag him up and take him to a private hospital.

Given the statuses of the Fuller and Stovall families in K City, I figured it wouldn’t be difficult to keep the

matter from the police.

“Ashton, help me, quick! I’m not strong enough to get him up. If we delay any longer, Joseph won’t

survive.” Putting Joseph’s arm around my shoulder, I tried my best to pull him up.

Suddenly, a bag containing a syringe was thrown to my side. After picking it up, I turned to look at

Ashton whose expression was frosty as ever. “It contains atropine. Inject it into his chest and it will

stabilize his condition for a while.”

I heaved a sigh of relief and smiled at the fortunate turn of events.

Worried that Nathaniel would return, Ashton declared scathingly, “Only I can decide whether my man

lives or dies.”

With that, he walked away without even bothering whether I knew how to inject the syringe or not.

Realizing how weak Joseph’s breathing had become, I had no other choice but to make every possible

effort to save him. I opened the package, ripped off his shirt, and stabbed the needle into his heart.

Since then, Ashton and Nathaniel never showed up again.

Joseph woke up the next afternoon and the first thing he did when he opened his eyes was to grab my

hand and ask about Savannah and his child.

“Don’t worry. They’re fine.” While consoling him, I poured him a cup of warm water. After making sure

he was fine, I said, “Ashton was the one who saved you.”

“I know.” Joseph’s expression was calm as he held the cup. “It means that I am still of use to Mr.

Fuller.”

From this reaction, it was obvious that he wasn’t surprised at all.

It also helped to confirm one of my suspicions—Joseph was aware of the hidden agenda behind

Ashton’s drastic change in temperament.

“We are not being watched by Nathaniel’s men here, so there’s no need to say such ridiculous words.

No one wants to hear them.” I tried to lighten the atmosphere as I spoke in a joking manner.

Joseph looked better, but he didn’t reply.

I knew how good he was at keeping secrets, so I wasn’t surprised at all. Consequently, I just treated

him as a messenger since he excelled at it.

“It’s fine if you don’t want to talk about it. I can see it with my own eyes. After all, we will be spending a

lot of time with each other going forward.” Picking up an apple, I began to peel it leisurely.

Not knowing what I meant, Joseph looked up and shot me a glance. Then, he casually remarked, “Mrs.

Fuller, that’s the way you should see it. Ultimately, Mr. Fuller will return to your side. With that, all of

you, including Ms. Audrey and Mr. Gregory, will be reunited.”

If it wasn’t for the incident at the abandoned factory, I would have thought Joseph was being sarcastic

on purpose. But now that I thought about it, Joseph’s implicit and explicit words had always been

reassuring. It was the different state of mind that I was in that caused me to misinterpret it.

Men everywhere were the same. Once they had a plan, they would give it their all to make it a success

and they would be paranoid that revealing just a little would cause their plans to fail entirely.
