Chapter 234: Chapter 236: I’ll Take You There

She thought Ashton Heath didn’t want her to go and specially explained it to him.

"Let’s eat first."

The man led her to the dining table, and a maid immediately pulled out a chair for her.

He motioned for her to sit down and took a seat next to her.

Meeting her puzzled gaze, his slender, well-defined fingers tapped lightly on the white table. The man’s deep, enchanting eyes met hers: "I’ll take you there after dinner."

Joanna’s face changed slightly: "No need, I’ll go there by myself."

He was so concerned about David Benington.

She was afraid they might start fighting if they saw each other.

Ashton’s eyes darkened as he stared at her for a few seconds, and then the corner of his lips curled up, "Baby, do you think I’d let you go on your own?"

Joanna: "Uh..."

She didn’t think he would.

He definitely wouldn’t feel at ease letting her go alone.

"There’s no room for negotiation." The man still had a gentle smile on his lips, but his tone was very assertive, "I’ll take you there."

"Joanna, I’ll go with you too!"

Sitting opposite them, Jeremy Lawrence overheard their conversation: "Ashton and I will take you there, and we’ll support you. If the Benington family dares to bully you, I’ll beat them up."

Jeremy waved his fists as he spoke.

He wasn’t worried about Collin and Mrs. Benington bullying his sister.

It was that bastard David he was worried about.

"Mm."

Ashton picked up his fork and put a little food into Joanna’s bowl, nodding, "You should go with your sister too. We’ll support her."

"Right!"

Jeremy clenched his fists, picked up his fork, and put a piece of fish into Joanna’s bowl with a grin, "Joanna, how could Ashton and I possibly let you go alone at this time? If someone bullies you, we won’t have time to help you."

"Just let Ashton and me accompany you to the Benington family."

Joanna glanced at the man beside her, then looked up at Jeremy across from her. After hesitating for a few seconds, she nodded somewhat helplessly.

"Alright."

From the looks of these two men, even if she disagreed, it’d be useless.

However, before leaving, she needed to give a heads up.

After thinking for a moment, she said to Jeremy, "Jeremy, when we get to the Benington family house, you must bear your temper and not act impulsively."

She wasn’t afraid that Jeremy would hurt the Benington family.

She was worried that if Jeremy got emotional, his heart disease would relapse.

After all, he was just discharged from the hospital today.

Jeremy knew what she was concerned about, so he nodded his head sensibly and promised, "Joanna, don’t worry. I won’t ignore my health."

At the Benington family house.

Mrs. Benington hung up the phone, looked up at David Benington standing in front of her with red eyes, and said, "David, why are you and Joanna breaking up? Did you do something wrong to her?"

"Tell me honestly!"

David’s handsome face showed a hint of guilt, his eyes flickered, and his expression quickly returned to normal: "Mom, Joanna and I chose to break up peacefully because we have no feelings for each other."

"You know, feelings can’t be forced. I know you and dad like her and hope that we can get married, but we really don’t have any feelings for each other anymore."

"No more feelings?" Mrs. Benington’s eyes widened in disbelief and anger, "Not long ago, you two were still talking about getting married, and now you’re telling me you have no more feelings for her? David, I’m your mother, the person who raised you since you were a child. How well can I not understand my own son? Do you think I would believe what you’re saying?"
