Chapter 490: Chapter 492: She Still Cares for Him

He raised his head apprehensively and glanced at Ashton Heath, thinking if he said something wrong.

It seemed like... Mr. Ashton was unhappy.

"Mr. Ashton, do you want me to have breakfast prepared?" Mr. Rowan asked cautiously.

Ashton Heath pressed his lips together, silent for a moment, before turning and walking upstairs: "No need."

At this moment, he felt extremely depressed.

She just left like that.

She left without making a sound.

She didn’t even say goodbye to him.

She wouldn’t have done that before.

Even if she couldn’t wait for him, she would at least let him know.

But she didn’t today.

She only informed Mr. Rowan and went out.

Not even a single text message was sent to him.

She must be fed up with him.

Although she didn’t say anything, her actions already spoke for it.

Ashton Heath entered the dressing room, his face cold as water, and stood in front of the large wardrobe for a while lost in thought.

As his fingers habitually reached for a black shirt, he suddenly remembered Joanna Lawrence’s words about him always wearing all black, and changed to pick another silver-gray shirt.

After getting into the car.

Zack noticed that young master seemed very down today, looking unhappy.

Although there wasn’t any expression on Mr. Ashton’s face and it didn’t look very different from usual.

However, having been by his side for many years, everyone could feel that he was in a bad mood.

Although Zack was curious, he didn’t dare to ask more about it.

He drove the car out of the villa smoothly and followed the usual route for a while, suddenly hearing Ashton Heath from the back seat say, "Don’t rush to the company."

Zack was taken aback, "Mr. Ashton, where are we going then?"

Back seat.

Ashton Heath did not speak, he lowered his head to look at his phone, maintaining the same posture for a whole minute before moving his slender fingers to send a text message to Joanna Lawrence: Where are you signing the contract? Have you arrived yet?

After waiting for a few minutes, he received Joanna’s reply: I’m at the Peak Film Company, just arrived. Are you still busy with work? Don’t forget to have breakfast even if you are busy.

Receiving this text, the man was stunned for a moment, and then his handsome face clouded with gloom seemed to melt like ice and snow, his mood easing considerably in an instant.

She still cared for him.

Did this mean that she wasn’t actually that fed up with him?

Ashton Heath decided on the spot to try again with Joanna Lawrence tonight, and try several more times.

He wanted to regain his self-esteem as a man.

He wanted Joanna Lawrence to know that he was not incapable.

This morning... it was just an accident.

He was too excited, so that’s why... it happened too quickly.

On the night they first made love, he was quick, but the subsequent times only got better, right?

Therefore, he was definitely not incapable.

Thinking of this, to avoid her having plans with someone else tonight, he immediately booked a time: Can you free up tonight? Let’s have dinner together? Whatever you want to eat, I’ll accompany you.

Joanna Lawrence replied quickly: Okay.

Seeing this reply, Ashton Heath’s face eased even more.

He really wanted to explain to Joanna Lawrence that what happened this morning was an accident, and that he was not actually a man who always came quickly.

But after thinking about it, he gave up.

Explaining at this time would be like covering up something.

She wouldn’t believe it.

It would be better to show her with actions tonight.

Ashton Heath: Alright, it’s settled then. Don’t make plans with anyone else.

Joanna Lawrence: Okay, I’m about to enter the elevator now, so I won’t reply to your messages for a while. Let’s chat later.
