Chapter 2881: Chapter 2411: Is This How He Gets Angry with Her?
She felt that the man in front of her, who was deliberately ignoring her and acting sulky, was no different from a child.
Now she was like the adult holding a candy, ready to coax the child immediately.
Ashton Heath intentionally ignored her, Joanna Lawrence didn’t mind, especially when she saw a cup of Bubble Milk with ice cubes that hadn’t completely melted on the black coffee table next to her. Her lips curled up a little more.
He was sulking with her and still thought to prepare her favorite Bubble Milk in advance.
It was her favorite flavor.
Was this his way of being angry with her?
Joanna Lawrence pretended not to know that he was deliberately ignoring her. She walked slowly to his side, didn’t say anything, and just stood there quietly watching him.
Then she discovered.
Ashton Heath was indeed looking at a document.
But he had been looking at the same document for more than a minute, and he hadn’t turned the page.
What almost made Joanna Lawrence burst into laughter was that Ashton Heath was holding the document upside down.
Now she was even more certain that he was intentionally ignoring her and just acting moody.
A few minutes passed like this.
In the end, Ashton Heath couldn’t help but throw the document on the floor. He raised his head, his dark eyes filled with a hint of helplessness and a touch of surrender, "If I don’t speak, are you prepared not to speak too? Standing by my side all day like this?"
"I’m just afraid of disturbing your work," Joanna Lawrence said with a cunning glint in her eyes. She reached out and pounced on him, taking the initiative to throw herself into his arms.
Ashton Heath still had a cold expression on his face, but the moment she leaped towards him, he quickly embraced her tightly.
Joanna Lawrence smiled sweetly, hooked her arm around his neck, and spoke softly, "How could that be? Would you really let me stand all the time? Besides, you knew I was here. You didn’t talk to me, so I thought you didn’t want to deal with me."
As she leaned in his arms and spoke coyly, Ashton Heath’s cold face couldn’t hold up any longer.
Even though he had made up his mind to snub her for a while, as soon as she showed signs of conciliation, he couldn’t be cold to her anymore.
"Ashton Heath, are you still mad at me?" Joanna Lawrence moved her face closer, rubbed their noses together gently, and spoke in an even softer and more teasing voice, "Please don’t be angry anymore. I admit that I didn’t plan to tell you about the investigation of Annie Lawrence at first. I thought it was just a small matter that I could handle myself, and I didn’t want you to worry about me."
"If it were something I couldn’t handle, I would definitely ask for your help. I think asking you for help with a small matter is a waste of your talent. If you don’t mind me asking for your help with every little thing, I’ll tell you what’s going on first, no matter what, from now on."
"Please don’t be angry anymore. I’ll treat you to dinner tonight as an apology, okay? Or, I’ll cook a meal for you myself?"
After Joanna Lawrence finished speaking, the man’s face had eased up quite a bit.
Joanna Lawrence took advantage of the situation and took the initiative to give him a kiss. She blinked her eyes, a faint blush appeared on her face, and she whispered, "I won’t leave tonight. As long as you’re not angry with me anymore, you... can do whatever you want."
The implication was too obvious.
Ashton Heath narrowed his eyes, looking down at her blushing, seductive little face, and a fiery flame ignited in his black pupils instantly.
