Chapter 1028: Chapter 1026: Don’t Misunderstand Our Relationship

And he even bluntly expressed his distaste.

She thought that being a straight man wasn’t enough to describe his weirdness.

Listening to his preaching, Aria Rowlett felt like she was being scolded by an elder.

"By the way, Ms. Aria. You haven’t told me if you like the room I arranged for you."

Aria Rowlett: "..."

Her heart was tired, and she didn’t want to talk.

"Mr. Ashton, let’s talk when you get back." Aria Rowlett felt that if she continued chatting with Brandon Heath, she might have a heart attack out of anger. She decided to end the conversation on her own initiative, "I’ll wait for you."

"Alright." Brandon Heath sounded warm, "We’ll have a good chat when we meet up. Then, Ms. Aria... see you later."

"...Yeah, see you later."

Aria Rowlett finally hung up the phone.

Next to her, Ria wore a delighted expression, asking with a smile, "Was it Mr. Ashton who called? Is he almost home?"

"Yeah." Aria Rowlett nodded, confronted by Ria’s gaze that seemed to look at her like a daughter-in-law. She felt her face heat up, and she pursed her lips in embarrassment, "He said it might take another forty minutes to get back."

"Mr. Ashton must be rushing home right after finishing his work." Ria covered her mouth and laughed, teasing in her eyes, "I’ve never seen him this proactive before. It’s true, a home needs a woman, and that’s when it feels like a home."

Aria Rowlett’s face turned even redder from the tease.

Seeing Ria’s happy expression, Aria Rowlett thought that Ria must think she and Brandon Heath were already together.

Brandon Heath’s various actions also gave others such an illusion.

He had even arranged a room for her.

In the eyes of others, didn’t they seem to be together already?

Looking at Ria’s pleased face, Aria Rowlett couldn’t bear to see disappointment in her expression, but she felt she needed to clarify things.

She couldn’t let people misunderstand any further.

She and Brandon Heath would never be together.

"Mrs. Rose Lawrence," she hesitated for a moment, then decided to tell Ria the truth, "Actually, I’m not with Mr. Ashton. We are just ordinary friends, and I won’t be living here in the future."

"Please don’t misunderstand our relationship, Mrs. Rose Lawrence."

"What?" Ria stared blankly, surprised, "You mean you and Mr. Ashton aren’t together?"

"Yes." Aria Rowlett liked Ria and didn’t want to disappoint her, but she still had to say what needed to be said, "Mrs. Rose Lawrence, Mr. Ashton and I will never be together. There will certainly be a hostess here in the future, but that won’t be me."

"So... Mrs. Rose Lawrence, you shouldn’t make fun of me and him anymore."

The smile on Ria’s face slowly faded away.

She saw that Aria Rowlett wasn’t joking, "But, but Mr. Ashton said that you would move in."

If they were living together, wouldn’t they be together?

Ria simply couldn’t understand.

"I never agreed to move in with him." Aria Rowlett rubbed her forehead, looking somewhat helpless, "He had my stuff moved by someone else, and the room was decorated according to his wishes, but I never agreed to it."

Ria’s eyes widened, dumbfounded.

"Ms. Aria, you mean Mr. Ashton forced you?"

"It’s not exactly forcing, but he never asked for my consent."

Ria maintained her dumbfounded expression for a long while, before whispering in astonishment, "I never imagined Mr. Ashton would force a girl... this is truly surprising."
