Chapter 277: Chapter 279: I Won’t Take These Words Seriously

If she really had David Benington in her heart, his actions would only push her further away.

Joanna Lawrence was still crying, her freshly wiped eyes quickly becoming wet again.

She felt extremely wronged in her heart.

This was the first time Ashton Heath had been so harsh on her, the first time he had appeared so frightening in front of her.

It was as if he had turned into another person.

At that moment, Joanna found him so unfamiliar.

She was terrified in her heart and wanted to escape.

The more Ashton tried to comfort and console her, the more tears fell from her eyes, like beads falling off a broken string, unable to stop.

He actually accused her of still having David in her heart!

He even accused her of constantly thinking about divorcing him!

How could he be so excessive!!

Perhaps in his heart, he never truly trusted her.

He had always been suspicious that she still had lingering feelings for David Benington, and had already doubted her once before.

This time, it was just that in his anger, he had spoken his mind again.

He had never really trusted her.

The more Joanna thought about it, the colder her heart grew, and she felt so wronged that she didn’t even want to bother with Ashton anymore.

In her ear, the man’s deep magnetic voice carried regret, constantly apologizing to her.

Joanna sniffed, stretched out her hand to wipe away her tears, and slowly withdrew from his embrace.

Ashton Heath didn’t dare stop her, fearing that if he did, her emotions would become even more agitated.

"Baby, I’m sorry, I take back everything I just said." He looked at the girl curled up into a ball, burying her head and constantly wiping away her tears, and felt thousands of regrets in his heart.

He reached out, wanting to help her wipe away her tears.

She dodged his touch by tilting her head.

Ashton Heath’s eyebrows furrowed tightly.

"Baby, I..."

Before he could even finish his apology, Joanna suddenly raised her head, her eyes red and swollen from crying, and looked at him, her voice hoarse with absolute distance and coldness: "Since you think I’m still hung up on David Benington, then let’s divorce."

She said defiantly, "That’s right, I can’t forget him, and I’ve always wanted to divorce you. Ashton Heath, let’s divorce. You wouldn’t want to be with a woman who still has another man in her heart, right? So, let’s just divorce."

"You can find a woman who truly likes you. I’m not suitable for you."

Ashton Heath’s face changed instantly.

Upon hearing the word "divorce," his face darkened immediately.

When she mentioned not being able to forget David, his eyes were filled with gloom.

He knew she was just saying this out of anger, but he was still deeply upset by her words.

"Joanna, don’t say things out of anger." He pursed his lips and remained silent for a moment, taking a deep breath to suppress the anger in his heart, not wanting to scare her further. "It was my fault just now. You can be angry, you can even hit me or scold me, but don’t casually mention divorce."

"I’ve told you, I won’t divorce you."

After wiping her tears for a while, Joanna looked up at him and laughed: "Ashton Heath, you’re such a proud man, can you really bear to have a wife who has another man in her heart? You’re right, I’ve known David for ten years, and our feelings can’t be erased just by saying we’ll forget. If I can’t forget him in my heart, can you really accept that?"

"Don’t say any more." Ashton stood up with a cold face, standing by the bed and looking down at her with hidden endurance and gloom in his eyes. "I know you’re still angry, so everything you’re saying is out of anger. I won’t take it seriously."
