Chapter 239: Chapter 241: Your heart, don’t waver again

Feeling even more sorry for her.

He lowered his head to look at the woman in his arms, his voice firm, "Mom, Annie is carrying my child, so I must marry her."

*

The black Rolls-Royce stopped outside the entrance to Benington Villa.

After the car came to a halt, Joanna Lawrence reached out to unbuckle her seatbelt.

She glanced at the man beside her, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Why don’t you and Jeremy wait in the car for me? I’ll try to get everything sorted out as quickly as possible. If anything unexpected happens, I’ll give you a call."

Her main purpose for coming today was to resolve the issue of canceling her engagement with David Benington.

She didn’t come to show off.

If she were to take Ashton Heath and Jeremy Lawrence with her to the Benington family now, they might think she cheated on David with another man first.

At that moment, she would be the one who made a mistake.

She didn’t want that to happen.

Ashton Heath, who could handle the complicated matters in the business world, naturally had a better cognitive ability than most people.

He also took those situations that Joanna considered into account.

After a few seconds of pondering, he nodded and said, "Alright."

Joanna picked up the bag next to her, reached out to open the car door with one hand, and prepared to get out.

"Wait a moment."

Behind her, a deep and magnetic male voice sounded softly.

She turned her head, "Anything else?"

Ashton Heath lifted the corner of his thin lips and leaned in, reaching out to touch her soft shoulder-length hair, his voice low and tender, "You must promise me one thing before I let you leave."

Joanna blinked, puzzled, "What is it?"

Ashton Heath’s eyes, deep and focused on her, paused for a long time before finally saying solemnly, "No matter how nice David’s parents are to you, and no matter what they say to you, you must not be swayed. Joanna, you are already married to me, my wife. Your heart mustn’t waver."

"And I won’t allow anything like that to happen."

"..."

Joanna quickly understood.

So, he was afraid that she would soften her heart after hearing David’s parents and then reconcile with David?

She felt that he was completely overthinking it.

Even if they hadn’t got married, she could never get back together with David again.

How could she possibly accept a man who had cheated on her with her own sister?

Even if David kneeled and begged for her forgiveness, she would never accept him.

She did have some feelings for Mr. and Mrs. Benington, but that had nothing to do with whether she would forgive David or not.

Moreover, she now had such an outstanding and remarkable husband; she had no interest in getting back together with her ex at all.

However, thinking that this man cared so much about her that he would worry so much and even lose his confidence, Joanna couldn’t help but feel a sweet taste in her heart.

The corner of her lips lifted slightly, and without considering if Jeremy would laugh at her later, she reached out to wrap her arms around Ashton’s neck, lifted her head, and kissed his sexy, soft thin lips.

The kiss lasted only a second.

She kissed him quickly, and before he could react, she quickly retreated.

"Hmm, I promise you. I’ll make a clean break with David."

Finishing her sentence, and taking advantage of Ashton’s still stunned state, Joanna opened the car door and jumped down.

"Bang."

The sound of the car door closing, mixed with the sound of her racing heartbeat, echoed in her ears.

Her face was burning like fire.

It felt like every single pore on her face was emitting heat.
