Chapter 1855
When There Is Nothing Left But Love
Chapter 1855 Set Up A Trap
Ashton was worried for a legitimate reason. Hence, I guessed that everything had turned out for the
best.
Ashton had almost gathered all Nathanielâs incriminating evidence. The latter had also exposed his
identity, so he would not escape for too long.
Although the police would patrol the villa, Ashton still felt that the place was unsafe for us to stay in.
Hence, he sent us to Johnâs house late at night.
John was staying in Louisâ precious yard. The place was kept under strict surveillance by the security
guard there. Moreover, there was a military base not far from the place, so Garrettâs people would not
get near.
The moment we entered the house, I jolted when I heard a loud voice. âMrs. Fuller!â
When I regained my senses, I finally noticed that Joseph was right in front of me.
Heâs alive!
âJoseph!â I exclaimed. âY-Youâre not dead! Youâre alive!â
Joseph smiled as he explained awkwardly, âYes. Iâm still alive. I went into hiding for detox and
recuperation. I mustâve embarrassed Mr. Ashton since Iâve recovered so slowly.â
âItâs not embarrassing.â I felt warm inside as I stretched out my arms to hug him. âGive me a hug. It
mustâve been hard on you.â
Joseph turned to look at Ashton for permission before he gave me a brief hug.
âThank you, Joseph,â I mumbled gratefully.
Joseph smiled without uttering a word.
Just then, Audrey and Gregory ran down the stairs and threw themselves at me.
âMommy!â
âMommy!â
âI missed you so muchâ¦â
âI missed Daddy too!â
âI miss you too!â
Seems like my senses have malfunctioned. Why do my tears taste sweet today? The next morning,
Benson was dressed in his military uniform when he visited us.
âCongratulations, both of you. The darkest days are already over.â
Lying in Ashtonâs arms, I looked at him to exchange glances with him before I smiled. Then, I invited
Benson into the house.
After serving the tea, Ashton asked Benson the question I was concerned about the most. âDid you get
any news about Nathaniel?â
Benson had just sipped his tea as he heard Ashtonâs words. He slowly placed his cup down as he
shook his head with remorse. âWeâre still investigating. The same goes for Mr. Jensen and his men. Itâs
like theyâve disappeared into thin air. Thereâs absolutely no news about them.â
âDoes that mean that Nathaniel might have escaped?â I frowned my brows worriedly.
Putting aside his identity, Nathaniel was highly intelligent. Once he had avoided the police, with his
capability, it would be a matter of time for him to make his comeback.
Ashton and our family had never owed him anything. We did not deserve to live under constant threat
and endless harassment.
âMrs. Fuller, donât be pessimistic. You should trust us. Those who Iâve intended to capture have never
gotten far. Please donât worry and enjoy your time with your family and forget about this issue.â Benson
did not even see Nathaniel as a threat.
I did not blame him at all.
One would only be terrified when mishaps befell him.
Looking at the children who were playing in the living room, I could not stay calm. Ashton is suffering
now because of all the grudges from the previous generation. I canât let history repeat itself and have
my children suffer from hurting each other. I canât let that happen.
As my heart sank, I looked at Benson and said, âMr. Zimmerman, we canât be on the passive side.
There are almost a hundred billion people in K City. Itâs impossible to find a needle in the haystack.
Why donât we change our plan, and try setting up a trap?â
âOh?â Benson raised his eyebrow, looking interested. âHow do we set a trap?â
Glancing at Ashton, I explained sternly, âI canât guarantee that my method will definitely work, but we
can give it a tryâ¦â
The next morning, an ambulance drove into the Stovall residence and sent me to the best private
hospital in K City. After a diagnosis, I was sent to the emergency ward.
The social media was soon awash with news, and some netizens predicted that I only had a month left
to live.
That was actually a trap to arrest Nathaniel. Yet, the person who appeared was Rebecca.
In order to let Nathaniel get into the hospital, all the patients on my floor were transferred away.
Instead, soldiers came to disguise themselves as patients and their family. Rebecca managed to get in
because the guard was slacking.
