My Secret Billionaire Husband
Chapter 648 - 647: There are too many things for me to worry about.

Chapter 648: Chapter 647: There are too many things for me to worry about.

"Baby, I don’t trust leaving you alone." Ashton Heath sighed softly, pulling her into his embrace, his hand patting her head gently, his words filled with undisguised worry. "Please don’t think your husband is nagging, but this is the first time after our marriage that you will be away from home, and away from me for several months. I’m not confident about leaving you alone."

"I’m afraid that without me by your side, you won’t take good care of yourself."

"I’m also afraid that when I’m not by your side, you’ll be mistreated or bullied by others..."

"There’s just too much I need to worry about."

"So, I want you to promise me. If anyone dares to bully you or treat you unfairly, you mustn’t bear it alone in your heart."

"Also, if anything happens, don’t hide it from me. I want you to promise me; you can’t keep anything from me."

Joanna Lawrence lay on his chest, listening to his heartbeat one after another, steady and powerful, vibrating through his chest cavity.

He was still nagging.

This was very different from the usual Ashton Heath.

He had never been so verbose before.

His abnormal behavior was only because he worried about her and didn’t trust leaving her alone.

Joanna couldn’t express how she felt. She lightly wrapped her arms around Ashton’s slender waist, her eyes suddenly becoming moist.

In the past, when she went on location for film shoots, she didn’t feel much of anything.

The only person she couldn’t bear to leave was her brother Jeremy Lawrence.

As for David Benington...

It seemed that she hadn’t felt as reluctant to part from him as she did now.

Even after they separated for a while and met again, she didn’t feel overjoyed or excited deep down.

She suddenly realized...

Maybe she hadn’t liked David Benington that much in the past.

She liked him a little, but not very deeply.

That’s why she could quickly recover from the hurt he caused when he cheated and betrayed her.

If she deeply loved David, there was no way she would fall for another man so soon.

Although she hadn’t known Ashton for a long time, somehow, he had already occupied a place in her heart, becoming a part of her life.

She could no longer bear to be apart from him.

"Hmm, Ashton, I promise you." Listening to his heartbeat, Joanna tightened her arms around him, embracing him more tightly, reassured. "I will take good care of myself, not let myself be mistreated, nor let others bully me."

"I promise you that I’ll be fine these few months."

"Don’t worry. I’ve gone on location for film shoots before. I’m not a child anymore; I won’t let myself have a terrible time."

"Besides, didn’t you say you would ask Director White to look out for me? With Gary White protecting me, what could happen? How about we video chat every day to report the situation, would that reassure you?"

"With Gary White watching over you, I’ll be much more at ease indeed." Ashton tightened his arms, trying to embed Joanna’s soft body into his bones and blood so he could take her with him wherever he went.

So they wouldn’t have to separate again.

"Anyway, don’t hesitate to ask him for help. He still owes Grant a favor, so just go to him if you need anything. He won’t dare not to solve your problems."

"Okay."

"Of course, if anything happens, you should come to your husband first. If I can’t help you immediately, then you can go to him."

Thinking back to the last time Joanna praised Frank’s talents and seemingly admired him, Ashton didn’t want the two to have too much contact.
