Chapter 224: Chapter 226: Can’t Help But Acting Spoiled with Him

They said that pressing the lower abdomen like this could help alleviate some pain.

Joanna didn’t feel much pain; her current pain was within her tolerance range.

But for some reason...

Seeing Ashton so worried, she couldn’t help but act spoiled, "Um, it hurts so much..."

Ashton totally believed her.

"Wait here, I’ll be back soon."

He stood up and walked towards the door.

"Where are you going?"

Seeing him already at the door, Joanna asked.

Ashton paused his footsteps and opened the door, "I’ll make you some sweet tea, just bear with it for a bit. I’ll be back soon."

As soon as Ashton opened the door and stepped out, he saw Mr. Rowan walking over with Jeremy Lawrence.

Seeing him, Jeremy quickly walked up to him, "Ashton, where’s Joanna?"

"You’ve arrived just in time."

Ashton patted him on the shoulder and told him, "Joanna is feeling a little under the weather; you go in and take care of her."

"Joanna is not feeling well? What’s wrong with her?"

Hearing that Joanna was not feeling well, Jeremy became anxious.

Ashton was silent for a few seconds, not answering him, and said, "You’ll know when you go in. Hurry up and go in, don’t dawdle."

With that, he hurried downstairs, leaving a bewildered Jeremy behind.

"Sis, where do you feel unwell?"

Jeremy entered the bedroom, saw Joanna lying on the bed, quickly walked to her side, and looked at her anxiously.

When Joanna heard the footsteps, she thought Ashton had returned already.

She was wondering how he got back so quickly.

When she saw it was Jeremy, she was taken aback and blinked, "Who told you I was unwell?"

"Ashton," Jeremy said. "I just ran into him, and he said you were not feeling well and asked me to come take care of you. But where did he go? Why didn’t he take care of you himself?"

Joanna was silent for a moment, and then lightly coughed with her hand to her lips, "Um...he went to make sweet tea for me?"

"Making sweet tea for you, he’s making..." Jeremy’s words trailed off as he realized what was going on, and a blush spread across his face, "sis, you, your period came huh."

"...Yeah."

Even though he was her own brother,

there were still some things they would feel embarrassed about.

Jeremy knew about her problem.

As someone who had taken care of Joanna numerous times and had relevant experience, of course, he was better at taking care of people than Ashton.

He immediately got a cup and went to the side to pour a cup of boiling water.

"Sis, have some hot water first."

Although the phrase "drink some hot water" had been ridiculed countless times online, during times like this, hot water really was useful.

Joanna took it, sipped slowly a couple of times.

Looking at Jeremy standing by the bed anxiously watching her, she raised her head and smiled, "Just feeling a little unwell, it’s not serious, don’t worry."

"Just a little?"

Jeremy was a little skeptical, "But why do I see Ashton looking very worried?"

Before Joanna could answer, Jeremy continued, "Sis, Ashton is really good to you. He even personally went to make sweet tea for you."

"I thought rich men like him wouldn’t do such things themselves."

Joanna: "...He didn’t do it before."

"So, for the first time in his life, Ashton is making sweet tea for you?"

"Uh..." Joanna’s face became slightly hot and embarrassed. She pursed her lips and smiled, "I guess so."
