Chapter 641: Chapter 641: I Just Want to Be with You Every Day

Annie Lawrence nodded, pursed her lips in a smile, but her eyes full of gloom: "This matter must be thoroughly investigated as soon as possible."

*

Three days passed quickly.

In a blink of an eye, it was almost time for Joanna Lawrence to leave for the film crew.

The night before leaving, Ashton Heath excused himself from all social engagements and came home early.

After dinner, the couple retreated to their bedroom.

Joanna Lawrence took out her suitcase, preparing to start packing.

She was scheduled to be out of town for approximately three months this time, so she had quite a bit to pack.

As she took out the clothing and neatly folded them into her suitcase, Ashton Heath stood by and watched for a while, feeling a bit uneasy.

He asked in a muffled tone, "What time do we have to leave for the airport tomorrow morning?"

"Linda just sent me the itinerary, the flight is at nine, we will probably have to leave for the airport past seven." Joanna Lawrence placed a folded skirt into the suitcase, then took several pieces of clothing from the wardrobe to fold.

"This early?" Ashton Heath seemed a little dissatisfied.

"It’s not that early right? Isn’t this the time you usually go to work?"

Ashton Heath: "..."

It’s not the same.

If she leaves that early for the airport, they’ll have less time together.

"So, you’re going to be away for three months?" Ashton Heath paused for a few seconds, asking in a slightly stifled voice.

"Mhm." Joanna Lawrence was folding clothes on the ground, she lifted her head after hearing his tone, stood up slowly.

She placed her hands behind her back, bent at the waist, tilted her head again to look at him, the corners of her mouth lifting slightly: "Aren’t you happy?"

Ashton Heath masked his expression: "We’re still on our honeymoon, yet my newly-wed wife is about to leave town for three months. How happy do you think I could be?"

"Alright, alright, it’s not like I’m not coming back." Joanna Lawrence met the resentment in his eyes, and laughed. She took a step forward, lifted her heels and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Also, you can come visit when you have time."

"Or if I have a break, I can also come back to see you."

Her voice was soft and coquettish, as if placating a child: "We’re just temporarily separating. Don’t you think, maintaining a considerable distance between husband and wife sometimes, is quite good too?"

"It’s not." Ashton Heath creased his brow, his eyes expressing dissatisfaction. "I don’t want to maintain distance with you. I just want to be by your side every day."

Joanna Lawrence: "..."

"Then, what do you want to do?" She sighed a bit exasperatedly, but her heart was brimming with sweetness. "If not, why don’t you shift your business focus there. This way, you can come live there, and we can be together every day."

She was simply joking.

Who knew, Ashton Heath seriously considered it, nodded and said, "Your suggestion is not bad, I am going to call Cody Aberton now..."

As he spoke, he reached for his phone.

Joanna Lawrence was startled for a few seconds, and then laughed at his antics, reaching out to stop him from reaching for his phone: "Alright, Ashton Heath, stop teasing. I was just joking."

"I think the idea is quite good."

"...then what about the business here?"

"Business?" The man arched his brow and smirked, his handsome and deep-set features taking her breath away at the close distance.

He moved closer to her, one hand holding her chin, his voice deep and enticing: "Business is nothing compared to my wife. In the wide world, my wife is the most important."
