Chapter 549: Chapter 548: You know in your heart whether Ashton loves you or not

"Then the Ashton Heath I know may be quite different from the one Ms. Kelloway knows." Joanna Lawrence deliberately made a very surprised and puzzled expression, tilting her head and furrowing her brows lightly as she spoke, "I don’t think he has a cleanliness obsession. People with cleanliness obsessions don’t like to kiss, right? But he likes to kiss me all the time."

"Every time I apply lipstick, it’s gone in no time because he ate it."

Rebecca Kelloway: "..."

"Could it be that he has two different standards for his own family and outsiders?" Joanna Lawrence deliberately emphasized the word "outsiders" while speaking with an innocent face, as if she was truly confused.

Rebecca Kelloway’s face changed several times, clenching her fists in embarrassment and anger: "Joanna Lawrence, do you think I would believe your words? Ashton doesn’t like you at all. He married you for his illness. Lying to me is useless, I won’t believe you."

"Hehe." Joanna Lawrence laughed, "Ms. Kelloway, why should I lie? Does it matter if my husband likes me or not, as you said? Do you think that I, as his wife, don’t understand his feelings for me as well as an outsider like you do?"

"If deceiving yourself like this makes you feel better, then think whatever you want."

"As long as I know that my husband loves me very much, that’s enough."

Joanna Lawrence was doing it on purpose.

She knew what Rebecca Kelloway was most bothered by, so she deliberately said these things to anger her.

As expected, Rebecca Kelloway’s face was unbearable to look at after hearing these words.

"Ms. Joanna, the phrase ’deceive oneself and others’ should be given to you." Rebecca Kelloway’s chest heaved rapidly, as if she was extremely angry, but in the end, she held back, her clenched fingers curling into a cold smile, "You know in your heart whether Ashton loves you or not. There’s no use in trying to get the better of me with words; everyone can see what the truth is."

Joanna Lawrence also sneered: "The truth is, Ashton was infatuated with my beauty, loved me at first sight, and then fell madly in love with me. Ms. Kelloway, arguing with me is useless, as I know the truth better than anyone."

"Heh, you..." Rebecca Kelloway hooked an ironic smile as she was about to retort when she suddenly saw a tall figure standing outside the door.

With a creak, the office door was pushed open.

When Joanna Lawrence saw Ashton Heath in a suit and leather shoes walking in from outside, she was completely dumbfounded.

Wasn’t he supposed to be in a meeting?

Hadn’t Cody Aberton said that his meeting would end in an hour?

So when did he come here?

Did he hear everything she just said?

As soon as she thought of that possibility, Joanna Lawrence wished she could dig a hole and hide herself in it immediately.

This was simply too shameful.

It was only because he was not around that she had deliberately said those things to anger Rebecca Kelloway.

She had just said that he was infatuated with her beauty, love at first sight...

Just as Joanna Lawrence was feeling incredibly embarrassed and worried about being slapped in the face by Ashton Heath, the man walked up to her and stopped, looking at the petite girl sitting in the black leather chair with a faint darkness in his eyes.

His chair was very large.

When she sat in it, she appeared very small, making her look especially delicate.

And from his standing perspective, all he had to do was lower his head to see the girl’s half-hidden softness and the barely visible red kiss marks under her long hair.

The man’s eyes darkened as his gaze inadvertently became even more intense.
