Chapter 568: Chapter 567: Unless One Day, You Say You Don’t Need Me Anymore

Rebecca glared at him, her eyes rimmed with red, tears swirling in them: "Now I only have you, Frank. You’re the only one who treats me well. If you fall for Joanna too, I’ll have nothing left."

"Tell me, have you fallen for her too?"

"I haven’t." Although Frank Parker had started to doubt her, seeing her cry threw his heart into a panic, and he hurried to explain, "Rebecca, don’t cry anymore. Alright, I promise you, I’ll agree to anything you want."

He reached out with his hand, embracing Rebecca once more, soothing her softly, "Just tell me how you want things to be, and I’ll do it. Don’t cry any more, and don’t be angry any more. We can’t rush matters concerning Jeremy. Let’s take our time to plan."

Rebecca leaned against his chest, inhaling the faint scent of musk and amber emanating from him. Gradually, a faint smile appeared on her lips.

She knew it.

Frank Parker couldn’t possibly refuse her.

This man loves her.

Like her, he values his self-respect highly.

He’s also a very proud man.

At the same time, he’s a timid man when it comes to emotions.

That’s why, even though he likes her, he never confessed his feelings to her.

Rebecca felt that their current relationship was quite good as it was.

She didn’t want Frank Parker to confess his love for her.

She didn’t like him.

Once their relationship becomes clear, they wouldn’t be as comfortable together as they are now.

Perhaps, she would even lose him.

Even though she didn’t like Frank Parker, having such an outstanding pursuer was not a bad thing for her.

"Alvin, you won’t leave me, will you?" The sense of crisis in her heart hadn’t completely dissipated. Rebecca slowly raised her head from his embrace, hesitated for a moment, and softly wrapped her arms around his waist, her eyes filled with a mixture of unease and fear.

She spoke quietly: "You said you’d always be with me, and treat me well. If you leave me too, Alvin, I won’t have anything left..."

"I won’t leave you."

Faced with the woman he loves showing such vulnerability, how could Frank Parker bear to see her sad?

He tightened his arms around her, holding her closer, and softly reassured her, "Rebecca, I’ll always be with you. Unless one day, you say you don’t need me anymore."

The woman in his arms was the one he’d always liked.

However, even with her in his embrace, Frank Parker didn’t feel his heart stir.

A mature, womanly scent wafted through his nostrils, an alluring and tempting fragrance.

Yet it was completely different from the scent in his memory.

It wasn’t even five in the afternoon when Ashton Heath announced it was time to go home.

As Ashton’s special assistant, Cody Aberton left work with him as well.

Overcome with emotion, Cody tearfully looked at Joanna Lawrence as Ashton went to the restroom, eyes shining with eagerness, "Ms. Joanna, please come to accompany President Ashton at the company more often."

"Since your arrival, President Ashton’s work efficiency has improved."

He was actually able to leave work before five.

Something that would have been impossible in the past.

Heath, before getting married, was a workaholic.

He would work overtime until nine or ten every night.

Sometimes, he’d even work until the early morning.

In short, recalling those endless days of overtime, his heart feels weary.

Now, he wishes Joanna could come every day so that he could leave work early and enjoy a happy and leisurely life.
