Chapter 1522: Chapter 1339: I Must See You Immediately

Frank Parker didn’t move, "I was just telling the truth. Ashton, I actually met her ten years ago, but I wasn’t as lucky as you. God gave me a chance, and I didn’t take it."

"So you must be good to her, for the rest of your life. If one day you change your heart and are not good to her, by then I won’t hesitate anymore."

As the words left Frank’s mouth, a fist landed on his face.

Ashton Heath pushed him away, his eyes were cold, and it seemed as if they were surrounded by ice: "Don’t be delusional, you’ll never have a chance in this life."

With that punch, there were traces of blood around Frank Parker’s mouth.

He wiped it off without hesitation, and smiled, "Is that so? It’s better this way. Ashton, I hope I don’t have such an opportunity as well. So, always be good to her, always treat her well."

"You must make her the happiest woman in the world."

"That way, I will have no chance to take advantage of the situation."

Only when she and Joanna became even happier, could he slowly give up.

"Miss Joanna, someone’s looking for you."

A maid from the manor approached Joanna Lawrence during her break time.

Hearing that someone was looking for her, Joanna was puzzled, "Do you know who it is?"

The maid recalled the handsome young man she had just seen, and a blush appeared on her face. She looked at Joanna with a mixture of admiration, envy, and resentment, "It’s a young man who says he’s your family member."

"My family member?"

Joanna was even more confused.

She first thought of Jeremy Lawrence when she heard it was a young man and her family member. However, she felt it was unlikely to be him.

Today was not a weekend, and Jeremy was still attending school.

There was nothing special going on, so he had no reason to visit her at this time.

With doubt, Joanna followed the maid away.

A few moments later.

When she saw Ashton Heath, she thought she was hallucinating.

He stood tall and straight, his back to her, in the bedroom she was temporarily staying in.

As Joanna opened the door, the man standing by the window slowly turned around.

"Ashton, Ashton Heath?" Joanna’s eyes widened in disbelief, standing at the doorway.

She couldn’t believe that the man she had talked to on the phone just a few hours ago was now standing in front of her.

Joanna was so surprised that she stood at the door without moving.

Ashton took quick steps toward her, reaching out to pull her into the bedroom, while the other hand gently closed the door.

In the blink of an eye, Joanna smelled the familiar and pleasant scent of the man’s embrace, as he held her tightly.

Leaning on his sturdy chest, listening to his strong, clear heartbeat, it took Joanna a while to regain her composure.

"How did you...?"

She looked up just as she started to speak, but Ashton grasped her chin, her eyes meeting his deep, dark ones.

"I worried about you."

"Worried about me?" Joanna blinked her eyes, her face full of confusion, "I’m fine, why are you worried about me?"

Ashton’s thin lips pressed together, not answering her question, but replied with an unrelated remark, "What, are you not happy to see me? You don’t like that I came to accompany you?"

"...No, it’s not."

"Then that’s fine." Ashton hugged her again, gently pushing aside a strand of hair from her forehead, "No matter what the reason for my visit, just think of it as me missing you so much that I couldn’t help myself and needed to see you right away."
