Chapter 516: Chapter 515: He is Ms. Joanna’s Ex-Boyfriend, David Benington

Cody Aberton: "..."

With President Ashton’s temper being so explosive right now, he didn’t dare hesitate and immediately blurted out, "About the investigation you asked me to do yesterday, it’s clear now who sent Ms. Joanna the flowers. It’s... it’s..."

Ashton Heath’s sharp gaze fell on Cody’s face, his voice dropping several degrees, "Who is it?"

Under the icy stare and holding back a shiver, Cody Aberton stutteringly said, "It’s Ms. Joanna’s ex-boyfriend, David Benington."

Barely after saying the name, it suddenly felt like the room temperature had dropped tens of degrees.

It was like stepping straight from mid-summer to below-freezing winter.

The cold gave Cody Aberton goosebumps all over his body.

"Who did you say? Say it again." Ashton Heath’s face darkened considerably.

Cody shivered again, "David, David Benington."

He knew that President Ashton would react this way.

If any other man pursued Ms. Joanna, President Ashton might not be so upset.

However, this guy was David Benington.

He had been childhood sweethearts with Ms. Joanna for ten years; he was her fiancé, a man who almost married her, but betrayed and hurt her instead.

This man was currently dating Ms. Joanna’s stepsister.

And yet he still sent flowers to Ms. Joanna, as if he wanted to pursue her again.

How could President Ashton not be angry?

Even he was furious when he first found out about the matter.

This David was so despicable; he was simply the top-notch scum among men.

No wonder how he had the face to do these things.

Ashton Heath pressed his lips together and fell silent for a long time.

Although he didn’t say a word, Cody Aberton could feel his overwhelming anger.

The angrier President Ashton was, the less he spoke.

This long silence showed how furious he must have been.

That David Benington would surely have bad luck now.

Initially, President Ashton couldn’t stand him, but since he hadn’t crossed his bottom line, Ashton figured it wasn’t worth dealing with him.

But now, David dared to target Ms. Joanna; wasn’t that forcing President Ashton to clean him up?

Sigh, was living not good enough?

Had to go and seek death.

"Alright, I know, you can leave now." After a long silence, Ashton Heath said calmly.

Cody Aberton: "???"

Was President Ashton’s reaction a little off?

Just letting him go like that?

Shouldn’t he be told to investigate Benington Group’s operating situation, then choose a day to cause their bankruptcy?

After all, David had now taken a fancy to his wife.

President Ashton shouldn’t put up with this.

In any case, causing Benington Group to go bankrupt should be quite easy.

"Didn’t you hear?" Ashton Heath’s deep and dangerous half-lidded eyes gazed a Cody Aberton still standing there dumbstruck; his voice ice-cold, "Get out."

The cold voice sent shivers down Cody Aberton’s spine; he didn’t dare to guess Ashton Heath’s thoughts any longer, immediately nodded, and swiftly headed out.

The fast and urgent pace made him look as if someone was chasing after him.

Once out of the office, Cody Aberton gently closed the door.

At the moment the office door closed, Ashton Heath emotionlessly tossed the pen in his hand onto the table.

The expensive pen cap, made of high-quality material, was already broken, showing just how much force the person holding it had used.

"David Benington."

Ashton Heath said the name in a deep voice, a glint of murderous coldness flashing through his eyes.

Hospital.

Annie Lawrence had been asleep for a long time.

When she woke up from her coma, she saw a teary-eyed Rose Liall sitting by her hospital bed.
