Chapter 2098: Chapter 2092: I Will Try My Best to Love the House and Its Crow

But she had been living with Benjamin for almost twenty years.

Her feelings for him were, in fact, deeper than those for her biological parents.

Previously, due to Annie’s actions, father and daughter had been out of touch for a long time.

Now receiving this call, Joanna’s emotions were somewhat complicated.

She didn’t know if Benjamin would call her proactively or if it was about Annie again.

She also didn’t know what she would do if Benjamin asked for her help again.

"Alright. Then come back early the day after tomorrow. There isn’t any objection from your parents, is there?"

Joanna was silent for a moment.

Suddenly, she felt a bit heartbroken.

Benjamin’s cautious question just now made her feel a sour pain in her heart.

"Dad," She whispered softly, suppressing the bitterness in her eyes, "You’re my family too, my closest person. Without your care, I wouldn’t be who I am today."

"In my heart, your place will never change."

Benjamin was silent for a moment before speaking, his voice slightly hoarse, "Alright, then you come back early the day after tomorrow. I’ll ask Rose to prepare the dishes you like. Oh, and bring Ashton Heath along. You’re married now, but you have never brought him home for a proper meal with us. Since you’re my daughter, he is my son-in-law. Bring him along the day after tomorrow."

"Yes, I’ll tell him."

A while later, Joanna hung up the phone.

She hesitated before saying to Ashton Heath, "The day after tomorrow is Dad’s birthday. He just called to invite me over for dinner. Do you... want to come with me?"

There were too many broken things in the Lawrence family.

The troubles caused by Rose and Annie made Joanna feel embarrassed.

She had such a terrible family of origin.

Even she didn’t like it, let alone others.

She thought that if Ashton didn’t want to go, she could understand.

But after listening, Ashton didn’t hesitate and said, "Alright."

He agreed so quickly that Joanna was taken aback, "Are you willing to go?"

"If you want to go back, then let’s go back," Ashton looked at her and said.

His attitude towards the Lawrence family was based on her attitude.

He would care about the people she valued.

And dislike the people she disliked even more.

"Yeah, I want to go back and see," Joanna thought for a moment, "Dad’s health isn’t great, and I haven’t seen him for a long time."

"Then let’s go."

Joanna looked at him and blinked, "I thought you wouldn’t want to go back to the Lawrence family with me."

"Baby, do you want the truth?" Ashton curved his lips, his hand resting on her head, gently rubbing it a couple of times.

"Yes."

"The truth is, I don’t really like your foster father, your stepmother, or your stepsister. They didn’t take good care of you, the one I treasure. They don’t deserve to be parents. You said your foster father was good to you, but I think he was partial. If it wasn’t for his partiality, you wouldn’t have had such a hard time over the past few years. According to my temper, I might never have anything to do with them in my life."

"But I know that you do have feelings for your foster father and that he indeed has the grace of raising you. So, I’ll try my best to love everything about you. Even if I don’t like them very much, if they are important to you, I will respect them too."
