Chapter 843: Chapter 841: Joanna Lawrence, how come you’re here?!

Annie Lawrence’s emotions grew increasingly agitated, practically gnashing her teeth. "But David Benington, do you think that by breaking up with me, Joanna Lawrence will forgive you and come back to you?"

"Nonsense." David was a very face-conscious person, and was quite annoyed that his thoughts had been directly exposed by her. "Annie Lawrence, I was considering our past relationship and didn’t pursue the fact that you lied to me. I wanted to make a peaceful break with you. If you knew better, we would have calmly discussed the breakup, and for the sake of our past, I would have given you some benefits."

"But if you have no self-awareness and refuse to accept the breakup, don’t blame me for not showing mercy."

"David Benington, are you threatening me?" Annie Lawrence said hatefully.

David’s eyes were extremely cold, so cold that even Joanna Lawrence felt he looked incredibly unfamiliar and terrifying.

He bore no resemblance to the David she had known for the past ten years.

His voice was equally cold, devoid of warmth, and his icy gaze at Annie Lawrence even held a hint of viciousness: "If you think it’s a threat, then it’s a threat. You’ve been deceiving me like a fool for so long, even causing me to have to break up with Joanna, and I haven’t even settled these scores with you yet."

"Annie Lawrence, you’d better be smart about this."

Upon saying this, David’s gaze and tone grew even colder and more ruthless: "I’m not discussing with you right now, I’m just informing you of my decision. You should know that if you provoke me, what your fate will be."

"If you still want to keep working in the entertainment industry, just listen to me. Otherwise..."

When he said the word "otherwise," his fierce gaze even frightened Joanna Lawrence.

At that moment, David appeared somewhat ferocious.

Though his face remained the same.

But it was as if a different soul had taken over his body.

The feeling he gave was terrifying.

Annie Lawrence was probably frightened as well, as she fell silent for a moment.

Perhaps worried that someone would see him and Annie together, David glanced around with some apprehension before raising his head and looking directly at Joanna Lawrence.

He was first stunned, then his eyes filled with astonishment.

"Jo, Joanna..."

Not believing his own eyes, he rubbed them before looking back at the direction Joanna was standing.

"It really is you." Seeing that Joanna was still standing there, alive and not just an illusion, he spoke with both surprise and joy, "Joanna, how come you’re here?"

"When did you get here?"

Estimating that Joanna had probably been standing there for a while, his face changed slightly before quickly regaining his composure and attempting to explain himself, "Joanna, what did you hear? Just now, Annie and I..."

"Joanna Lawrence, how on earth did you end up here?!"

David’s voice was drowned out by an even louder and more piercing one. When Annie Lawrence turned her head to see Joanna Lawrence standing behind her, she looked even more astonished and shocked than David.

Actually, Joanna hadn’t intended to eavesdrop.

But the place where David and Annie were talking happened to block her way.

She originally thought she would leave once this unfaithful couple had gone.
