Chapter 1001: Chapter 999: No one in the Heath family will acknowledge your status

Rebecca Kelloway frowned at her and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Joanna Lawrence laughed again: "It sounds like Miss Kelloway is doing me a favor. You’re so concerned about me, I feel quite touched."

Rebecca: "Joanna, I hope you can be realistic. If Lady Octavia never agrees to you and Ashton being together, do you think you can still be happy together? Lady Octavia is Ashton’s biological mother, he wouldn’t abandon her for you."

"Oh, I get it." Joanna pretended to be suddenly enlightened. "Miss Kelloway is here to persuade me to divorce Ashton Heath. Is my understanding correct?"

Rebecca looked at her indifferent expression and became angry: "If you were wise enough, you would know what is best for you without me advising you."

The coffee shop waiter came over with their coffee, Joanna took hers and slowly sipped a mouthful before looking up at Rebecca: "Let me be frank with you, Miss Kelloway. Even though you have gone to great lengths for my sake and considered many things for me, I’m afraid I must disappoint you."

She met Rebecca’s furious gaze, calmly took another sip of her coffee, and smiled faintly, "Sorry, I have no intention of divorcing my husband. I have no plans now, nor will I ever. So, Miss Kelloway, there’s no need to persuade me anymore."

"Joanna, do you really think that by clinging to him like this, you can continue to be the secure wife of the Heath family’s second young master?" Joanna’s repeated stubbornness infuriated Rebecca, making it difficult for her to maintain her outward calm.

"That’s between my husband and me. It doesn’t concern you, Miss Kelloway?" Joanna’s tone remained light, but there was a hint of coldness in her voice. "It’s not good for Miss Kelloway to be so concerned about other people’s family matters."

"Although the Heath family and the Kelloway family have been friends for generations, and you and my husband grew up together as friends, you are still an outsider after all. It’s a bit too much for you to keep an eye on other people’s family affairs and meddle in your friend’s marriage, isn’t it?"

"Miss Kelloway, you should know that in matters between husband and wife, even the intervention of relatives is unnecessary. And besides, you’re not even a family member." The coldness in Joanna’s tone was now apparent.

She felt that Rebecca was completely clueless deep down.

Was it because she had been too gentle with her twice before that Rebecca thought she was as easy to manipulate as soft persimmon?

Don’t they know not to provoke a tiger if it doesn’t show its fangs, or else they’ll think it’s a harmless cat?

"So what?" Rebecca sneered, "Whether you like it or not, my position in the Kelloway family is higher than yours. Lady Octavia still favors me as her daughter-in-law, and no matter how you married Ashton, no one in the Heath family will acknowledge your status."

"Joanna, your background and profession are a disgrace to the Heath family. If people knew Ashton married a woman like you, do you know how much he would be laughed at, and the entire Heath family would be ridiculed."

"You’re not even presentable as a wife."

Joanna couldn’t help but laugh again: "Even if I’m not presentable, at least my personal ethics are intact, and I know not to covet married men. As for you, Miss Kelloway, you’re shamelessly after my husband, trying to break up our relationship. Don’t you think that’s even worse?"
