Chapter 328: Chapter 330: Let’s have a good talk after some time.

"Ashton, are you really going to be like this?" Rebecca Kelloway raised her eyes, a wounded expression on her face, and choked out, "Everything was fine among us before. Why did everything change after returning this time?"

There was a deeper meaning to her words.

Ever since Joanna Lawrence found out that Rebecca had hostile feelings towards her and regarded her as a love rival, Joanna could always interpret another layer of meaning in many of Rebecca’s words.

Was she suggesting that she was the culprit for disrupting their friendship?

If it weren’t for her, these things wouldn’t have happened.

Joanna had indeed felt before that she may have affected the relationship among their friends.

As a result, she felt somewhat guilty.

But now...

She wouldn’t have that damn guilt anymore.

It wasn’t her who was in the wrong, so why should she feel guilty?

All along, she had never actively stirred up trouble.

It’s said that the one who flirts first is cheap, and if Frank Parker and Rebecca Kelloway really fall out with Ashton Heath, it would be their own doing.

Anyway, Joanna couldn’t understand their thinking.

If it were a normal person, would they disrespect the person their good friend cares about in their presence?

Isn’t that just asking for trouble?

Not to mention it’s her own beloved wife.

Even with her relationship with Aria Rowlett, if someone spoke ill of Aria in front of her, she would explode too.

Ashton Heath met her gaze but didn’t speak, yet his eyes were also filled with distance.

"Rebecca, let’s go." Frank Parker grabbed Rebecca’s hand, a mocking smile at the corner of his lips. "Why ask him? Don’t you know the answer deep down? He’s already made his choice. Do you still hold any hope for him?"

Rebecca still looked at Ashton with tear-filled eyes, heartbroken. "Ashton, I know that what you said just now wasn’t what you truly meant. I won’t take it seriously, and neither will Frank. You’re still angry now, and you won’t listen to anything we say."

"Let’s have a proper talk after some time."

Frank Parker sneered and moved his lips as if he wanted to say something else.

Rebecca tugged at his arm, her eyes pleading, and gently shook her head at him.

Meeting her gaze, Frank clenched his fist, took a deep breath, forced down his anger, and held back the words that came to his lips.

He had always been unable to refuse Rebecca’s requests.

Especially when she looked at him with such teary eyes, he couldn’t refuse her even more.

Since she didn’t want him to say anything more, he wouldn’t say it.

"Frank, let’s go." Rebecca lightly tugged at Frank Parker’s arm again.

She wanted to leave.

If she didn’t leave now, she wouldn’t be able to bear it any longer.

Watching Ashton defending Joanna like that made her heart feel like it was being viciously torn apart by an invisible hand.

It hurt so much.

She felt that she was about to be in so much pain that she couldn’t breathe.

"Fine, let’s go." Frank Parker gave Ashton a cold glare and looked gravely at Joanna before leaving hand in hand with Rebecca.

Regina Kelloway stayed in her place for a while.

With her swollen eyes from crying, she looked at Jeremy Lawrence, tears still glistening in her eyes, and asked softly, "Jeremy, I have a question for you. I hope you can answer me honestly. Is that okay?"

Jeremy looked at her red, swollen eyes, feeling as if something was choking his heart, and his voice was a bit dry, "What do you want to ask?"
