Chapter 113: Chapter 115: How about making Benington Group go bankrupt too?

However confident he might be, he had to admit that the man with the mysterious identity had extremely good conditions.

Seeing the respectful attitude of the banquet manager towards him, his status must be very distinguished.

Just now, he heard the person in charge call him Mr. Ashton...

David Benington was suddenly taken aback and an idea popped into his head.

With the last name Heath and being so young, could he possibly be... the new president of Heath Group who just returned to the country?!

But this idea only stayed in his mind for a second before he immediately rejected it.

Impossible.

Absolutely impossible.

It was rumored that the president of Heath Group was very contemptuous of women approaching him, said to have some kind of "androphobia" and being very repulsive towards women.

If he were the Heath Group president, how could he be so close to Joanna Lawrence?

Moreover, with Joanna’s identity, it would be impossible for her to even get in contact with him.

After thinking this through, David felt a little more at ease.

Offending the Heath family meant death.

Looking at the whole of Closia, no one dared to offend the Heath family.

After David Benington left.

Ashton Heath saw that Joanna Lawrence still had a cold face and looked unhappy, so he pinched her jaw, lowered his head and looked her in the eyes, saying: "Are you still angry? If you don’t think driving them away is enough to appease you, then I’ll make the Benington Group go bankrupt too. How about that?"

Joanna’s eyes widened in surprise.

When other people said this, she would think they were joking.

But when Ashton Heath said it...

She didn’t doubt at all that he would really do so.

He had that kind of power.

"Let’s not do that," Joanna hurriedly said. "Although I broke up with David Benington, and I am quite annoyed right now. However, the grudges between us should not rise to involve his family. His parents were... not bad to me."

What she said was true.

Collin and Mrs. Benington had always been very nice to her.

Especially Mrs. Benington, who treated her almost like her own daughter.

Mrs. Benington had always wanted a daughter, but after giving birth to David, it was difficult for her to conceive again.

Therefore, she only had one son, David.

Unable to give birth to a daughter, she transferred her yearning for one onto Joanna.

Although Joanna now hated David intensely, she didn’t hate his parents as well.

Ashton listened to her words, and his eyes narrowed, "Were his parents very good to you?"

"Yes."

The man’s deep eyes narrowed further, clearly showing some dissatisfaction: "Do you really like his parents?"

Joanna was taken aback and only then realized that he seemed to be unhappy.

"Well... it’s not that I like or dislike them." Sensing what he might be concerned about, she didn’t dare tell the truth.

She was afraid that if she told the truth, he would really get angry.

She now had some understanding of Ashton; he seemed to be indifferent to everything, but actually, he was very petty about many things.

Hearing her say this, the man’s face eased a bit.

His warm hand covered her head and rubbed it. His deep voice said, "You and David are broken up. Breaking up is like becoming strangers. In the future, try to avoid contact with him and his family as much as possible to avoid entanglement."

"Okay." Joanna obediently nodded. "I understand."

Anyway, as long as she complied with everything he said, it would be fine.

Ashton was pleased to see her so obedient, and his face relaxed a little more.

He turned his head to look at Aria Rowlett, then looked around and asked curiously, "Didn’t you have two roommates? Where did they go?"
