Chapter 897: Chapter 896: Humph, this big pig’s foot

Also, I didn’t intentionally avoid calling you. The incident happened suddenly, and I didn’t expect it... Later, I did think about telling you, but I thought you would definitely worry if you knew, and I wasn’t really hurt anyway, so..."

"So, you thought it wasn’t necessary to tell me?" The man’s deep and magnetic voice was filled with suppressed anger.

"... Yes."

"And then even some people in the film crew who have nothing to do with you know you almost had an acid attack, but I, as your husband, had no idea? You think that’s appropriate? You’re my wife, yet I had to find out about your situation from someone else; don’t you find that ridiculous?"

"I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to..."

Joanna Lawrence didn’t think all that much at the time.

She simply didn’t want him to worry.

She hadn’t expected that because she didn’t call him right away, he would be so angry and care so much.

If she knew what he was thinking, she wouldn’t have held back.

She wanted to call him all the time.

Even though the incident didn’t have any adverse effects on her, she was still frightened.

When she was scared, the first person who came to her mind was him.

She wanted to seek his comfort right away.

She wanted him to come to her, kiss her, hug her, and tell her not to be afraid.

But her reason suppressed her urge to call him.

Because she knew that with just one word from her, he would definitely drop everything and come to her immediately.

But she also knew that he wasn’t always free.

He was busy too.

He had many things to deal with.

She didn’t want to delay his work.

She didn’t want to affect him with these matters.

She was considering him in every aspect, yet she still made him angry and got a scolding, making Joanna feel somewhat wronged.

The fear from the near acid attack and the sense of injustice surged in her heart, and her eyes stung with tears:

"I really didn’t mean it, I just didn’t want to worry you too much."

"I’m sorry, I didn’t know you’d be so angry."

Once the sense of injustice emerged, she couldn’t hold it back. The more Joanna thought about it, the more wronged she felt, and tears welled up in her eyes, nearly falling.

She really wanted to cry.

During normal days, the man who was always gentle and indulgent to her, never said a harsh word to her. But at this moment, he was so intimidating.

He was even blaming her.

He seemed so scary now.

She felt a little scared.

When Ashton Heath was gentle, he could spoil her to the sky.

But when he was angry, he was truly frightening.

"Are you crying?"

Joanna sniffed and ignored him.

She had been scared and on edge enough today.

When she received his call, she wanted to act coquettish and let him coax her, say sweet things to her.

That way, she wouldn’t be so scared anymore.

But there wasn’t a word of comfort from him.

He was still complaining about her, saying that she was wrong...

Hmph, this jerk.

She didn’t want to bother with him anymore!

Ashton Heath was ignored, and after a few seconds of silence, his tone softened a lot, and he was no longer intimidating, "Baby, don’t cry. I didn’t mean to blame you, I was just...too worried about you, and too scared."
