Chapter 417: Chapter 419: She Is Still the Most Precious in My Heart

As she spoke, she stepped forward to drag Lillian away.

However, Lillian, seeing Ashton’s indifferent expression, lost her sanity and screamed: "Mr. Brandon, Joanna is really an innocence pretender. She specifically targets wealthy men. She really isn’t a good person..."

"Slap!"

Before she could finish her sentence, she received a heavy slap on her face.

The slap caused her face to turn sideways, leaving a bright red handprint on her cheek.

Gretchen was stunned and exclaimed: "Joanna, you..."

Joanna retracted her hand. She used so much force in the slap that her palm turned red.

She looked coldly at Lillian, whose face was swelling from the slap, and said icily: "Lillian, I’ve been tolerating you time and time again, but that doesn’t mean you can attack me like a mad dog. From this moment on, our three years of friendship are over."

"If you continue your nonsense, don’t blame me for being rude."

The roommates had been living harmoniously for years.

Joanna had never imagined that their relationship would turn sour just half a year before graduation.

The reason for this situation was because she found such an outstanding man, which caused her roommates to be jealous.

Thinking about it, it seemed somewhat funny.

Indeed, a woman’s jealousy is the most terrifying thing in the world.

Lillian and Gretchen had enjoyed Peace for so many years, and now it was broken.

Their true colors were revealed.

It turned out that their years of Peace were just an illusion.

Comparatively, Gretchen was a little better off, while Lillian was completely insane.

She was nothing like the person Joanna had known before.

She rushed to Ashton to say so many demeaning and insulting words about Joanna. Did she want Ashton to think that Joanna was frivolous and break up with her?

No matter her intentions, Joanna could no longer tolerate it at this point.

At first, she still appreciated their years of friendship.

Now, there was no need for that.

"Joanna, you hit me!" Lillian took a while to recover from the slap.

She covered her swollen face, slowly turned her head, and glared at Joanna with a terrifying expression.

She seemed ready to fight Joanna.

Ashton looked at her coldly and immediately protected Joanna behind him.

His cold, emotionless gaze swept over the angry woman, his voice devoid of warmth and filled with ice: "Joanna is now my girlfriend. Her past is not important to me, and I don’t care about it at all."

Lillian stared at him in shock.

"Even if she did those things, it won’t stop me from liking her," he said.

"She had an abortion. You... you don’t care?" Lillian’s lips trembled, unable to accept his attitude.

Ashton sneered: "So what if she had an abortion? She’s still the most precious person to me. Someone like you, with an ugly heart and appearance, is not even comparable to a single strand of her hair."

Although Ashton was not an absolute gentleman, he still maintained basic gentlemanly manners when facing women.

He rarely, if ever, called a woman ugly outright as he did now.

Upon hearing his words, Lillian’s body swayed unsteadily twice.
