My Secret Billionaire Husband

Chapter 2882 - 2412

"Ashton Heath, are you still mad at me?" Joanna Lawrence leaned in closer, her nose grazing his, her voice even softer than before as she cooed, "Can you stop being angry? I admit that at first, I didn’t plan to tell you about the investigation into Annie Lawrence. That’s because I thought it was a trivial matter that I could solve myself, and didn’t want you to worry about me."

"If it was something I couldn’t solve, I would definitely ask for your help. I just think that asking for your help over a trivial matter is a waste of your skills. If you don’t mind, I’ll discuss everything with you first from now on, okay?"

"Can you stop being mad? I’ll buy you dinner tonight to make up for it. Or, how about I cook for you?"

As Joanna finished speaking, the man’s face softened considerably.

Seizing the opportunity to follow up her success, Joanna initiated a kiss. Her face flushed and she bit the corner of her lip before whispering, "I’m not going home tonight. As long as you’re not mad at me anymore, you...can do whatever you want."

The implication was clear.

Ashton Heath squinted his eyes, looking at her flushed and charming face, and a fire seemed to ignite in his deep black eyes.

"Are you sure?" He asked, his voice was much huskier.

Such benefits are not often available.

Especially when it’s Joanna Lawrence who offers them. It made the offer even more valuable.

Usually, she would say she wasn’t feeling well or that she was tired, she would only let him touch her once at most.

Which always left him unsatisfied.

"Mmm, I’m sure. Why? Don’t you want to?" Joanna asked, pretending to be innocent.

"Alright, remember it was you who suggested this." The man’s voice was even more husky. His arm tightening around her waist, those burning deep eyes firmly locked onto hers, he leaned in, his warm lips lightly rubbing against hers, "You’re not allowed to go back on your word later, no crying or fussing about me touching you."

"So you’re not mad at me anymore?" Joanna asked, lightly biting his lip.

"Mmm."

Ashton Heath captured her retreating lips, his eyes conveying a mixture of helplessness and affection. He sighed in disbelief, "When have I ever been really mad at you?"

Even when he was upset, a few sweet words from her would easily make him surrender.

He was simply no match for her.

The only time he deliberately snubbed her was when there were rumors of her being romantically involved with a male celebrity.

He tried to get back at her by giving her the cold shoulder.

But in the end, he was the one who felt cold without her.

He was destined to be wrapped around her finger for the rest of his life.

"So you’re not angry anymore?" Joanna Lawrence’s face lit up in a smile. She tilted her head and asked happily, "That’s great. Can I have my Bubble Milk now? The cup on the table is for me, right?"

"..."

Ashton Heath suddenly felt like he was just one of her tasks to be taken care of.

"Mmm, it’s for you." Ashton Heath shook his head, reaching out to pinch her cheek, "Go ahead. But I suggest you don’t drink too much, we’ll be getting off work soon and you won’t have an appetite for dinner if you drink too much."

"Okay."

Having appeased him, Joanna Lawrence immediately jumped off Ashton Heath’s lap and started to drink her Bubble Milk with pleasure.

She squinted her eyes as she drank the Bubble Milk, clearly enjoying it.

Watching her, Ashton Heath shook his head again and said with a smile, "Is it really that tasty? It’s all unhealthy junk in there. It’s okay to drink it once in a while, but drinking it every day is bad for your health."

"You should drink less."
