Chapter 169: Chapter 170: Keep it down, don’t wake her up

*

As they passed by a pharmacy, Ashton Heath asked Zack to stop the car and went in to buy some ointment.

The marks on Joanna Lawrence’s face had already faded, but her face was still red and swollen.

Ashton took the ointment and gently applied it to the half of her face that had been slapped.

Joanna’s skin was fair, so the injury on her face was very noticeable.

As he applied the ointment, Ashton’s eyes darkened as he looked at her swollen face, and his aura grew colder.

They arrived at the Heath Group building.

After parking the car, Zack walked to the back seat and opened the door.

Joanna was not yet awake, and while Zack was wondering if they should wake her, Mr. Ashton, with careful movements, carried her out of the car.

"Let’s go."

Leaving those words behind, Ashton carried Joanna towards the elevator.

Zack stood behind them for a few seconds, stunned, before quickly following them.

Mr. Ashton was really spoiling Ms. Joanna.

Just because he was worried that she would be bullied, he left behind a bunch of important things to support her.

He had to know that time equaled money here.

The time he had just spent could have been used to make a lot of money.

And now, just so as not to wake Ms. Joanna, he was even carrying her into the company!

With so many employees watching, it was likely to shock them to their core.

Ashton took the president’s private elevator, which went directly from the parking lot to the floor of the president’s office.

Although they had avoided the employees in the first-floor lobby, there were still a few female and male secretaries on the president’s office floor.

As these secretaries watched their usually uninterested in women boss, President Ashton, walk out of the elevator carrying a woman, everyone was stunned.

They were so stunned they even forgot to greet him.

It wasn’t until Ashton walked by them carrying Joanna that a few people seemed to suddenly regain their senses and hurriedly greeted respectfully, "President Ashton."

Just after they had finished greeting, they saw Ashton frown slightly.

A few secretaries saw his frown and turned pale with fright.

They thought it was because they hadn’t greeted him in time, so President Ashton was angry.

They were about to apologize, when they saw Ashton turn his head back, looking somewhat displeased as he swept a glance at them, half-squinting his eyes, lowering his voice and saying, "Quiet down, don’t wake her up."

A group of secretaries: "???"

It wasn’t that President Ashton was angry about their not greeting him in time?

But rather, he thought their greeting was too loud, worrying it would wake up the "mysterious woman" in his arms?

The group was once again shocked and dumbfounded.

Just what kind of celestial beauty could make their normally indifferent President Heath pamper her like this?

Two female secretaries stealthily lifted their heads, trying to get a glimpse of the woman Ashton carried and what she looked like.

Unfortunately, all they could see was a head of raven-black hair, and nothing else.

The woman’s face was buried against Ashton’s chest.

They could see that her skin was very pale, almost a glowing cold-white tone.

Just as they were trying to get a better look, Mr. Ashton carried the woman into his office.

As soon as the office door closed, the overwhelmed group immediately began an eager discussion: "I’m not seeing things, right? There was a woman in President Ashton’s arms?"

"You’re not seeing things, it was indeed a woman, we saw her too."
