In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 1025

Danny looked at me with a slight frown on his face and replied helplessly, “Sorry, I can’t leave A City right now. Now that Mr. Abe’s been arrested, Dante and I will be too. The police should be looking for me everywhere, so I can only hide around the city now and can’t head to Moranta.”

I laughed bitterly.

Everything was destined. I could not change anything as it was all already arranged for.

Ten days later, Abe had been sentenced to death as Imperial Hotel was found to have hidden weapons and had participated in the organ trade.

Brandon was also charged for being Abe’s accomplice.

Cameron and Zachary had brought Summer back to K City, and Dillan’s family seemed to have disappeared without a trace. There was no way we could find them.

Although things seemed to be over, I was not as happy as expected and was still angry. After toying with me, Armond had hastily ended everything just like that. I had lost my child due to my own stupidity, yet he was able to gain something and even managed to walk away unscathed.

However, I was no angel and would not just leave it at that.

On Thursday, I headed to the mall.

As an apology for not attending Tabitha’s wedding while I was busy in K City, I had asked her and Laurel out to go shopping together.

Having not seen her in such a long time, Tabitha seemed to have put on some weight. After some careful questioning, I found out that she was pregnant.

Tabitha shook her head. “No, I don’t really contact her. I’m not that interested in her affairs, so I don’t really bother checking on whatever she bought or did.”

Laurel paused for a moment, then said, “Tabby, you don’t seem to like Tessa very much?”

Tabitha was a straightforward person who wore her heart on her sleeve. Thus, she shrugged and replied indifferently, “I neither like nor dislike her since we’re just acquaintances. Anyway, we don’t belong in the same world as her. I’m sure you know that she’s overly ambitious. She probably sees us as mere passers-by who aren’t significant enough.”

I laughed lightly as I listened to their conversation. “It’s okay, we’re just having a casual chat and sharing some gossip. If you guys don’t like something, you don’t need to talk about it. I was just a little curious about where Tessa’s adopted child came from. Is it even legally possible for an unmarried woman to adopt a child now?”

Laurel nodded. “I think it’s possible as long as you meet the requirements. Apparently, a woman between thirty and forty who’s unmarried and is doing okay financially is qualified. I think Tessa also mentioned that the child isn’t an orphan. The child’s mother died in a car accident and his father was sentenced to death because of some severe offense. Therefore, the child was trusted upon her.”
