Chapter 1462: Chapter 1376: Comfort Your Wife

When Gary White mentioned Benjamin Lawrence, there was a hint of annoyance in his eyes.

He genuinely thought that Benjamin Lawrence was a foolish old man.

Because of him, his precious younger sister was so heartbroken.

Even though the Lawrence family had raised Joanna Lawrence, he still held a grudge against Benjamin Lawrence.

After crying for a while, Joanna was comforted by Gary White and gradually her emotions calmed down.

"Brother, I’m fine now. Thank you for being by my side and comforting me," Joanna wiped away the tears on her face, looking much better than before.

"Don’t be silly, there’s no need to thank your own brother," Gary White lightly tapped on her head, took out a handkerchief from his bag, and carefully wiped her face clean.

"Alright, don’t think about those unhappy things anymore. I’ll take you to eat something delicious tonight. You like fondue, right? I know a place that has really good fondue, do you want to go?"

Gary White was trying so hard to comfort her.

Even though Joanna couldn’t possibly let go of her feelings so fast, she didn’t want Gary White to worry further about her being sad and upset.

She nodded, "Yes, I want to go."

"Good, after we’re done with work, I’ll take you there."

After Gary White brought Joanna back to the film crew, he sent a message to Ashton Heath on Twitter.

Gary White: Comfort your wife, she just got wronged.

In the past, when Gary White sent messages to Ashton Heath, he would have to wait a long time for a reply.

But this time, Ashton Heath replied almost instantly: What did she get wronged for? Who bullied her?

Gary White clicked his tongue and replied: The one who wronged her is your father-in-law. Did you arrange for Annie Lawrence to be blocked? Today, because of this matter, your father-in-law brought Annie to the film crew to confront Joanna. He demanded that Joanna repay the Lawrence family for raising her and to stop blocking Annie. Your wife cried her eyes out, she must be very upset. Although I, her brother, already comforted her, I think your comfort would be most effective.

As soon as Gary White told Ashton Heath about it, Joanna received a call from him.

After picking up, Joanna softly said "hello."

Her voice was a bit hoarse from crying.

Ordinary people might not be able to tell, but Ashton immediately noticed that she had been crying.

With a somewhat cold tone, he said, "I already heard from Gary White. Did Benjamin Lawrence bring Annie to find you?"

Without waiting for Joanna to answer, he continued coldly, "You should indeed sever ties with the Lawrence family. Benjamin Lawrence does owe you a favor, but he knows full well what Annie has done to you and still shows favoritism, even saying you should repay them for raising you."

"Such a person is not worthy of being your father."

Joanna didn’t expect Gary White to tell Ashton Heath about this.

She felt embarrassed.

She remained silent for a long while before saying, "Ashton Heath, since you already know about this, can you do me a favor?"

Ashton Heath guessed what she wanted to say.

He asked, "You want me to let go of Annie?"

Joanna replied softly, "Yes." After being silent for a few seconds, she closed her eyes and said, "The Lawrence family has been kind to me. They requested this and I can’t refuse. Can you let go of Annie?"

Ashton Heath didn’t answer her immediately.

Joanna quietly waited for his response. After more than ten seconds, she finally heard Ashton Heath’s voice: "Indeed, the grace of raising you cannot be ignored. Fine, I promise you, I won’t interfere in Annie’s affairs anymore."
