Chapter 688: Chapter 687: I Insist on Sticking to You

"Are you not going home today?" Joanna Lawrence glanced at the time and then at the deepening night outside, asking softly.

Ashton Heath stopped in his tracks.

He turned around, his thin lips curving into a faint arc. His gaze fell on her, half-smiling, half-serious, "Baby, do you want me to go home?"

"Me?"

Joanna lifted her head, meeting his deep, charming eyes. Her heartbeat skipped a few beats. After a moment of silence, she timidly said, nibbling on the corner of her lips, "Of course, I hope you can stay. But, don’t you have a lot of work at the company?"

"Isn’t it not very good if you don’t go home?"

A deep, seductive laugh came from the man above.

Joanna blinked, glaring at him, "What are you laughing at?"

Ashton rubbed her head affectionately, "Baby, you just need to tell me if you want me to stay. If you want me to, I will stay. If you want me to go back, then I’ll go back."

"I’ll listen to you."

"As for other things, you don’t need to worry about them."

Joanna hesitated for a moment before deciding to follow her heart, "Well... you should stay then."

Anyway, since he said that he wasn’t worried about his company, why should she fuss over it?

It’s not like she forced him to stay.

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Ashton chuckle lowly. His hand, which was holding her fingers, intertwined with hers, their hands tightly clasped, "Good, I’ll stay as my baby has asked."

Joanna couldn’t help but smile, she moved her fingers to grip his tightly, "This is what you said yourself, I’m not forcing you. If staying here with me delays your company’s business, I won’t take responsibility."

"Don’t blame me then."

"Hmm, I won’t blame you." Ashton responded gently, "I am the one insistently clinging to you, you are helpless."

"Hmm, as long as you’re aware." Joanna suppressed a smile, "Yes, exactly, you are the one clinging to me."

The night was deep.

The night in Frankfurt was a bit cool.

Joanna did not want to return to the hotel just yet. She led Ashton down the stairs. When he took out his car keys and unlocked the car, preparing to get in, she gently tugged on his arm.

Ashton turned around, his brows raising slightly, "Hmm?"

Joanna pressed her lips together, then said, "I’m really full after dinner. Let’s take a walk."

Truth be told, she didn’t want to go back with Ashton right now. On the one hand, she felt that it would be too boring to return to the hotel right after dinner.

He came all the way to Frankfurt.

She wanted to wander around with him.

On the other hand, she was a bit scared...

Scared that the moment they returned, Ashton would pounce on her.

On the night before leaving Closia, he had done it with her nearly nonstop for two whole hours. Every time she remembered it, her legs felt weak.

If they went back too early, she was afraid this man might...

She did not want to be trembling during the film shooting tomorrow.

"You want to take a walk?" Ashton stopped.

Joanna nodded, "Yeah, we just had dinner, let’s walk. Don’t you think the moonlight is beautiful tonight?"

Ashton Heath: "..."

There was no moon out tonight.

Oh well, he wouldn’t expose her.

If she wanted to take a walk, he would accompany her.

"Okay, I’ll go on a walk with you. Wait a minute." Ashton let go of her hand, walked to the back seat of the car, opened the door, and took out a black jacket.
