My Secret Billionaire Husband
Chapter 849 - 847: Did you ask for my permission before asking my girlfriend out?

Chapter 849: Chapter 847: Did you ask for my permission before asking my girlfriend out?

Even though Joanna had rejected him before.

But such rejection only made him more determined and more eager to win her over.

Before David could finish speaking, a freezing voice from behind him grew louder: "Mr. David, don’t you think it’s shameless of you to repeatedly pester someone else’s girlfriend?"

"Did you get my consent to ask my girlfriend out?"

David’s figure suddenly stiffened.

Joanna raised her head to look at Ashton who was walking towards her, hesitated for a moment, then pushed David away and walked quickly towards Ashton.

Before she reached him, Ashton stretched out his long arm and pulled her over with an expressionless face, possessively circling her waist.

Joanna was well-behaved, pulling at the corner of his shirt and asking softly, "Why are you here?"

She wondered if this jealous jar would get angry again.

She knew how much Ashton disliked David.

Fortunately, she was not alone with David, Annie was also there.

Otherwise, his jealous jar might really spill over.

Ashton lowered his head to look at her, his eyes softening when they landed on her face: "I was worried when you didn’t come back from the restroom after so long."

Alright then.

Joanna, afraid that he would get jealous again, gently tugged at his sleeve and whispered to him, "I didn’t know he was dining here. I only ran into him after I came out of the restroom."

"Hmm." Ashton’s mood seemed stable, not like he was jealous, "I know."

Joanna glanced at him again: "You’re really not mad?"

"No." Ashton reached out to touch her head and looked up at David standing opposite them.

Seeing the affectionate actions between the two and hearing Ashton repeatedly claim Joanna as his girlfriend, David’s jealousy skyrocketed, his face twisted in envy.

David stared at Ashton with a dark face.

After a moment, Ashton smirked: "David, didn’t I warn you before not to pester my woman again? It seems that you didn’t take those words to heart, nor did you take them seriously."

His voice was faint, and there was even a smile on his face.

But for some reason, when David heard these words, he couldn’t help but feel a trace of fear inside.

However, he didn’t want to appear weak in front of Joanna and lose face, so he forced himself to argue: "Joanna and I have known each other for ten years. Even if we’ve broken up, we’re still friends. How come talking to my friend is considered pestering?"

As soon as his words fell, Joanna couldn’t help retorting, "David, I told you that after we broke up, you and I became strangers. I’m not your friend, and you shouldn’t try to establish connections that don’t exist."

David didn’t expect her to publicly refute him.

His face changed, feeling embarrassed, he said anxiously, "Joanna, no matter what you think, I’ve always considered you a friend. I don’t believe that you can let go of our ten-year relationship so easily."

"I know you’re still angry with me and not willing to forgive me, so you’ve done some things to provoke me. Joanna, you don’t have to forgive me, and you can ignore me, but you can’t use hurting yourself as a way to vent your anger at me."

David didn’t believe that Joanna had truly moved on.

Even though the man before him was indeed very eligible.
