Chapter 1103: Chapter 1101: This woman is too scheming!

"Ashton, Joanna, Grandma had prepared dishes that you guys love. Are you hungry? Would you like to have some food first?" After scolding Lady Octavia a few times, Madam Heath ignored her and led Joanna Lawrence toward the dining room by her hand.

With a look of affection in her eyes, she looked at Joanna Lawrence: "Is it very tough shooting the film outside? I haven’t seen you in just a few days, and I feel like you’ve lost some weight. I heard that being an actress means that you can’t eat too much, and you need to maintain a certain figure, is that true? In my opinion, all these rules are just nonsense. You’ve already lost so much weight, what figure do you need to maintain? You should eat more and put on some weight to look better."

Older generation people always prefer slightly plumper girls.

Joanna Lawrence’s figure is considered standard, neither fat nor too thin.

But in Madam Heath’s eyes, she was still a little too thin.

Madam Heath’s protection warmed Joanna’s heart, and she no longer cared about Lady Octavia’s attitude towards her.

She affectionately put her arm around Madam Heath’s, carefully supporting her while sweetly answering: "Mhm, I’ll listen to Grandma and eat more tonight! With Grandma caring for me so much, I don’t feel tired at all!"

"Hahaha, you child." Madam Heath’s face showed a look of enjoyment.

In the Living Room.

Ashton Heath frowned as he looked at Lady Octavia, still sitting on the sofa with a cold expression and not uttering a word. With patience, he said, "Mom, let’s go have dinner."

Lady Octavia lifted her head and looked at him coldly: "Now you remember that you have a mother?"

Ashton Heath’s brows furrowed tighter.

Lady Octavia continued coldly, sarcastically: "What am I? I feel like I’m just a spare wheel. I won’t bother your happy family dinner. Having me around would just make everyone feel uncomfortable and unhappy."

With that, she stood up and called a maid over, commanding her: "Later, bring my dinner upstairs."

The maid looked at Ashton Heath, who stood nearby with hesitation: "Mr. Ashton, this...?"

Lady Octavia’s face changed instantly, speaking to the maid with a fierce tone: "I told you to do something, why are you asking Mr. Ashton? What now, do I really have no status in this house? Even you maids don’t listen to me?"

The maid’s face changed in fear: "No, that’s not the case, Lady Octavia."

Ashton Heath’s patience finally ran out. He took a deep breath, glanced at Jeremy Lawrence who was still standing there, and suppressed his anger as he said: "Jeremy, you go ahead and eat first."

Jeremy hesitated, then asked softly: "Ashton, what about you?"

Ashton’s tone remained relatively calm: "I’ll be there in a moment."

Jeremy looked at Lady Octavia again and nodded: "Alright, we’ll wait for Ashton to eat together."

Ashton called a maid to take Jeremy to the dining room and told the other maids to leave as well.

Once Jeremy was gone, Ashton’s tone towards Lady Octavia was not as calm as before, now tinged with anger: "Mom, what are you trying to do? Are you forcing me never to come back to this house again?"

Lady Octavia looked at him with fury: "What am I trying to do? Didn’t I tell you that day? Ashton, I made it very clear that I will not agree to you two being together. Do you even know what kind of woman she is? She’s only after your money!"

"This kind of woman is too calculating! If you stay with her, sooner or later, you’ll suffer at her hands!"
