Chapter 272: Chapter 274: Men are All Big Pigs’ Feet

This conversation truly overturned her impression of Rebecca Kelloway.

Although she had felt Rebecca’s hostility at the dinner party before, there were other people present at that time, and Rebecca’s behavior seemed quite normal.

She didn’t do anything that was out of her status.

But just now...

That woman full of jealousy and talking with a strange tone, she didn’t seem like a well-bred lady at all.

Even though she wasn’t as exaggerated as an ordinary shrew, that jealous look on her face was quite hard to tolerate.

Even if she comes from a noble background and is very beautiful, once jealousy arises in her heart and is expressed, her original image will suffer greatly.

Thinking that all this was because of Ashton Heath, Joanna Lawrence couldn’t help but feel some anger towards him.

It was him who caused all the romantic troubles, so why was she the one suffering?

Sensing her discomfort, she picked up her phone and sent Ashton Heath a text message: Men are all big pigs, hmph!

Ashton Heath, who was working in the study, heard his phone vibrate, glanced down and saw that Joanna had sent him a message. He released his hand from the mouse and picked up his phone.

After reading it, he saw: Men are all big pigs, hmph!

Ashton Heath: "....."

He didn’t understand what this sentence meant, but out of curiosity, he immediately replied: ?

From the other side, Joanna responded instantly: Ashton Heath, do you like me?

Seeing this reply, Ashton Heath was stunned for a while.

He held his phone, read, and pondered the message Joanna had sent several times, wondering why she would suddenly ask this.

Perhaps he pondered a bit too long, as Joanna grew impatient waiting for his reply, and sent another message: Forget it, don’t bother replying. Just pretend I didn’t ask.

Ashton Heath’s brows furrowed.

He asked: What’s wrong with you?

Joanna: Nothing, it’s nothing, go back to your work, don’t mind me.

Ashton Heath stared at the phone for a few seconds, looked up at the unfinished documents, resolutely closed his computer, and walked towards the door.

He felt something was off with Joanna.

At this time, she should be sleeping.

But she suddenly sent him a text message, and it contained some inexplicable words.

He couldn’t rest easy, so he had to go and check on her.

Upon reaching the door, he opened it to find Tedd standing outside with one hand poised to knock on the door.

"Mr. Ashton," seeing him, Tedd immediately greeted him with reverence.

Ashton Heath responded softly: "Tedd, what’s up?"

Tedd nodded and recounted what he had just seen: "Mr. Ashton, I just saw Ms. Kelloway leaving your bedroom. She didn’t look well. I was worried that she and Ms. Joanna had some unpleasant argument, so I came to tell you."

Actually, Tedd wasn’t really worried about any grievances that Rebecca might suffer.

He was more concerned about Joanna.

In the Heath family, who didn’t know about Rebecca Kelloway’s affection for Mr. Ashton?

With her noble upbringing and stunning appearance, coupled with her suitable marriage age, countless families with matching social and economic status wanted to join the Kelloway family.

Over the years, more and more people introduced Rebecca to potential suitors.

Among those suitors, there were quite a few outstanding scions of wealthy families too.

But Rebecca turned them all down.

She didn’t even meet them, the answer was a direct no.

Didn’t all this happen because their Mr. Ashton was the only one in her heart, and the only one she wanted to marry?
