Chapter 1043: Chapter 1041: You got hit? Who hit you?

In her view, those female artists in the entertainment circles all relied on selling their bodies to get ahead.

Joanna Lawrence was no exception.

A woman who climbed the ladder by selling herself dares to compete with her for a man?

David Benington had been tolerating the woman because her parents and his parents were good friends.

However, when he heard her insulting Joanna, he couldn’t bear it any longer. His face darkened, and his voice became cold: "Miss Conway, strictly speaking, we aren’t really dating. I only said we would try, but you misunderstood my intentions."

"So you have no right to accuse anyone here."

In David’s view, he could criticize Joanna.

But others couldn’t.

He wouldn’t allow anyone to bully the woman he liked.

He didn’t have much liking for the woman beside him, and her behavior just now ruined the little bit of a good impression she had left in his heart.

At this moment, David thought the woman beside him was utterly hateful.

When she threw a tantrum, she was no different from a shrew.

The more disgusted he felt about the woman beside him, the more he thought that Joanna was the tender moonlight in his heart.

Irreplaceable.

No one could ever compare.

Thus, under such circumstances, he naturally needed to defend this tender moonlight in his heart.

He wanted to win Joanna back, so naturally, he should put on a good show in front of her.

And he directly denied his relationship with the woman beside him.

The woman’s eyes widened: "David, what did you just say?"

David’s eyes had completely turned cold. When he looked at her, it was like looking at a stranger: "I said we’re not dating at all. You just wishfully think so."

Fearing Joanna would misunderstand, he immediately turned to her and explained: "Joanna, don’t listen to her nonsense. We’re not dating at all. She was introduced to me by my mom. I didn’t want to reject my mom’s good intentions, so I met her twice."

"But we never dated."

"Other than you, I won’t look for any other woman. You must believe me."

"David, you scumbag!" The woman raised her hand and slapped David on the face.

It hit the other half of David’s face.

With the slap from Joanna earlier, both sides of David’s face swelled up.

"And you, you shameless woman! I won’t let you two, this scumbag and shameless couple, off the hook!" The woman’s anger was not yet vented, and she raised her hand to slap Joanna again.

Seeing this, David wanted to step in front of Joanna’s to protect her, but a black figure was faster and stood in front of Joanna.

The woman’s raised hand was caught in mid-air.

She paused for a moment, raised her angry head, and prepared to say something. But when she clearly saw the face of the man in front of her, she was shocked and surprised, her eyes widening.

Her face changed, and she exclaimed in astonishment: "Mr. Parker, Mr. Parker..."

David, standing beside her, was also stunned, revealing the same astonished expression on his face.

Frank Parker held the woman’s hand, looked down at Joanna, and when he saw the clear finger marks on her face, his eyes darkened. A cold air enveloped him, and he said coldly: "You were hit by someone? Who hit you?"

When Joanna saw Frank Parker, she was also surprised.

Stunned for a few seconds, she frowned and said: "Mr. Parker, how are you here?"

Frank’s cold gaze was still on the slap mark on her face, and his voice became even colder: "I asked you who hit you on the face?"
