Chapter 227 No one would reject such a great advantage.


After leaving the meeting room, Sally blocked my path and said, “Let’s have a chat, Scarlett.”


She probably wants to talk about HiTech. I nodded and took a glance at Marcus. “Let’s get lunch together later.”


He nodded. “I’ll wait for you.”


The woman frowned unhappily when she saw our exchange. After Marcus left, she asked, “Shall we talk in my office?”


I nodded. “Alright.”


Her office was nicely decorated with lots of flowers. Once we were in there, she gestured for me to sit down and poured me a cup of coffee.


Then, she sat down in her chair. Instead of talking about HiTech, she asked, “How are you and Ashton doing recently?”


Since she was an elder to me, it didn’t seem inappropriate for her to ask that question. I answered indifferently, “We don’t meet, nor do we poke our noses into each other’s business.”


She nodded but didn’t say anything in response. After pausing for a moment, Sally asked, “What are your plans now?”


“I’m not sure yet.” I had been giving her somewhat lukewarm reactions so far, and she seemed unsatisfied with them. However, she didn’t say much about it. “Both you and Ashton are husband and wife. No matter what mistake the other party made, you should solve the problem and stay by each other’s side. You shouldn’t hold grudges and force the other party to leave!”


She harped on earnestly, “I know that you’ve gone through a lot, Scarlett. But you have to talk it out. We’re a family, not enemies. You shouldn’t carry all these burdens alone. You can hate Ashton all you want, but you’re still his wife. And when you’re living under the same roof, you have to solve the problems you’re facing. You can’t just run from them, Scarlett.”


I lowered my gaze as I started feeling annoyed. She was right, but I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to stand living in the same house as Ashton.


Seeing that Sally was about to say something else, I quickly said, “Aunt Sally, we’re at work right now. Let’s talk about private stuff at home, alright? You called me here to talk about the company’s matters, right?”


There wasn’t any problem with what she said. In fact, I could understand her reasoning and even agreed that she was right. But things were always easier said than done.


Sally stopped talking about this matter when she saw that I was getting impatient. After sighing slightly, she said, “Alright, then. We’ll talk about the company’s matters. Do you know what the consequences would be if you use HiTech as collateral and there is no progress after a year?”


I raised my brows. “Are you thinking for the Fuller family or the White family? If you’re concerned about the former, don’t worry, Aunt Sally. I obviously already have a plan in mind if I had the guts to make that suggestion. Besides, George already handed over the company to me before he passed on, so I have full discretion over it. It’s my own business, to put it bluntly.”


A displeased look appeared on her face once I was done talking. “Dad handed over HiTech to you only because he trusted you and hoped that you could make it a better company. He also wanted you and Ashton to be together for the rest of your lives. He didn’t give you the company just to let you put it at stake so hastily,” she said in a low voice.


Seeing that she was getting worked up, I got to my feet and retorted, “You said it yourself that George trusts me. Since it’s my decision to make, it’s not something that other people or even George can control. After all, never doubt the person you hire.”


“You—”


“Sorry, I still have an appointment in the afternoon, so I’ll take my leave now.” I wasn’t a good person, and I had no right to judge whether someone was good or bad. After all, everyone’s experience in life was different. Therefore, I could only endure the hardships I experienced.


As for everyone else, I would never be able to fathom their suffering, nor did I want to.


I headed straight to Marcus’ office after leaving Sally’s.


The man was in his seat, looking really bored.


Upon seeing me, he raised a brow as he asked, “What did you talk about?”


“Relationships!” I sat down on the couch and gulped down a few mouthfuls of water to suppress the irritation I was feeling.


His lips twitched. “Did she manage to convince you?”


I looked up at him and replied, “Do you think I would be convinced so easily?”


He pursed his lips. “That’s hard to say.”


Marcus paused for a while before adding, “I know you really love Ashton. Wouldn’t you regret it if you just gave him up like that?”


I rolled my eyes at him. “How were you able to tell that I love him?”


He shrugged and got up before saying, “Would you have pushed yourself to this point if you didn’t?”


Marcus walked over to me and reached out his hand. “These are the information of the two men from that night. I’ll continue investigating if you really want me to.”


Then, he handed me a file. I was stunned for a moment. Unable to contain the frustration I was feeling, I quickly opened up the file to read the documents. It was as though the old wound in my heart was about to be ripped open again.


After reading up their files, I couldn’t stop myself from saying, “Both of them have their own families. Do you think they would stop being so cruel if they experienced the pain of losing a child?”


Marcus pursed his lips as his gaze landed on my cold face. He heaved a sigh and asked, “What do you want to do?”
