Chapter 531: Chapter 530: Why is He Always the One Getting Hurt?

If he were to keep his promise with her, his life would be miserable from now on.

He could promise her anything, but not touching her... that, he couldn’t do.

"Alright, don’t worry about me." Joanna Lawrence knew he was busy with work and had a lot on his plate, so she told him understandingly, "Go ahead and work, you don’t need to massage me anymore."

She held onto Ashton Heath’s hand, still massaging her thigh.

After a while, the discomfort she felt had eased quite a bit.

"Knock knock knock".

At this moment, a knock on the door was heard, along with Cody Aberton’s voice, "President Ashton."

"Come in."

Ashton Heath combed through Joanna’s soft, black hair with his fingers while holding her small hand with his other hand, gently pinching her tender palm.

When Cody Aberton walked into the office, he saw this scene.

The always diligent President Ashton who had a reputation for not giving in to distractions during work hours was not at his desk, focused on his tasks. Instead, he was sitting on the couch cuddling with Ms. Joanna in a clingy manner.

The moment Cody Aberton entered the office, he saw President Ashton bending down and kissing Ms. Joanna.

Ms. Joanna probably felt shy, so she blushed and pushed him away.

President Ashton then caught her small hand and kissed it again.

Cody Aberton: "..."

Why was it always him who got hurt?

Couldn’t they be considerate of his feelings as a single man?

Joanna felt embarrassed to behave so affectionately in front of Cody Aberton.

So, she tried to push Ashton Heath away.

But the man wouldn’t let her leave, his arm tightly wrapped around her waist, holding her captive in his embrace.

"What’s the matter?" Ashton Heath held his warm and soft sweetheart in his arms, giving Cody Aberton an unfriendly look.

It seemed to say: if this is not something extremely important, he’s a dead man.

Upon catching his gaze, Cody Aberton shivered and quickly said, "President Ashton, Mr. Southey from Aussie Group is here, waiting for you in the Reception Room."

"Mr. Southey?" Ashton Heath raised an eyebrow and nodded, "Alright, I got it. Have someone attend to him. I’ll be there shortly."

"Yes, sir."

As soon as Cody Aberton finished speaking, he turned and hastily left the office.

After all, his dog’s life was at stake.

Ashton Heath looked down at the girl in his arms and gently said, "Baby, I have to leave for a bit. When I return, we’ll go out for dinner, alright?"

"Okay, go ahead." Joanna nodded and obediently agreed.

She wouldn’t dare delay his work since a man like Ashton Heath valued his time like gold, and she couldn’t afford to waste it.

Her well-behaved appearance made Ashton Heath extremely fond of her, his chest filled with tender emotions. He couldn’t help but pinch her chin and steal a kiss.

By the time he left the office, ten minutes had already passed.

He left with a satisfied look on his face.

On the couch, Joanna’s eyes were hazy, her lips swollen, gasping for breath after his passionate kisses.

Lunch was arranged at a restaurant with a wonderful atmosphere, which seemed to be perfect for a date.

After lunch, since Joanna still had to ask for leave from school, Ashton Heath asked Zack to drive her there first.

When they were about to arrive at the school, Joanna saw a pharmacy across the street and suddenly remembered something.

She asked Zack to pull over.

Ashton Heath’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. He looked outside the car window and asked in confusion, "Why are we stopping here? We haven’t reached your school yet, have we?"
