Chapter 558: Chapter 557: It Starts with Looks, but It’s Definitely Not Just About Looks

"If I like someone, I would have made a move a long time ago. Keeping my distance is not my style."

Joanna Lawrence: "..."

She couldn’t argue with that.

He was indeed a man of action.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have gotten married on the same day they first met.

It seems that he really didn’t like Rebecca Kelloway after all.

But to say that she was his type?

Joanna didn’t quite believe it.

Not because she lacked self-confidence, but because when she and Ashton Heath got together, it wasn’t because they liked each other.

She was doing it for Jeremy Lawrence.

He... was doing it because of his strange condition.

In the beginning, this was just a marriage of convenience for both of them.

Gradually, however, this marriage, based on their respective interests, seemed to change.

From being ready to divorce at any time, she began to have hope for this marriage.

And from being an outsider at first, she began to genuinely accept her married status and a husband named Ashton Heath.

"Do you have any other questions?" The man’s slender fingers playfully tapped her nose. "You can ask me anything you want. I’ll answer everything, except what I don’t know."

His candid demeanor left Joanna with no desire to ask more questions.

Besides being curious about what just happened, she really had no other questions.

She shook her head: "I don’t have any more questions."

"Are you sure?" Ashton Heath seemed regretful. "You can think again; don’t you have anything else to ask me?"

"It seems like there’s one question..."

"Hmm?"

"Ashton Heath, what exactly do you like about me?" Joanna asked seriously. "Did you fall for my beauty, and was it my looks that won you over?"

After all, other than her looks, she didn’t have any other shining traits.

Ashton Heath: "..."

He suddenly recalled the words Joanna had said to Rebecca Kelloway earlier.

She said that she was with him because of his face.

Even if he knew she might be making it up, at this moment, he still wanted to know what she really thought.

Joanna was taken aback: "I asked you first..."

"Yes, it started with your looks, but it’s definitely not just about your looks." Ashton Heath answered her question. "There are too many specifics that I can’t mention, but you are my type."

"I knew it from the moment I saw you."

He never hid his feelings from her.

It wasn’t the first time he told her he liked her.

But at this moment, Joanna felt moved.

Facing such a man, even if he confessed to her a thousand or ten thousand times, she would still be moved by it, wouldn’t she?

Who could resist such a man, full of irresistible charm?

"I’ve answered, now it’s your turn." Ashton Heath pinched her delicate chin, seemingly indifferent on the surface, but inside, a deep, hidden nervousness and anticipation emerged.

He was waiting for her answer.

At this moment, his emotions were quite complicated.

He was a bit afraid that her answer wouldn’t be what he wanted to hear.

But he was also very curious about how she would respond.

"I..." Joanna opened her mouth, but before she could say more, a sudden knock on the door interrupted her.

Cody Aberton’s voice came from outside: "President Ashton, should we continue the meeting? Everyone is still waiting for you in the Conference Room."

The sudden knock on the door made Ashton Heath feel a little displeased. He had wanted to call off the meeting without a care but, thinking about all the issues that needed to be addressed, he furrowed his brows. The strong arm that had been wrapped around Joanna’s waist slowly loosened.
