1141: Chapter 1138: Ashton Heath is Unhappy 1141: Chapter 1138: Ashton Heath is Unhappy “Alright.”
Ashton Heath picked up the wristwatch on his desk, stood up and said, “I’ll go down and wait for you now.”
“There’s no need, I can just co up to find you later.
You have your work to do, no need to…”
“I’m free now.” Ashton Heath walked towards the door of the office, speaking in a tone that didn’t allow for refusal, “This is it, I’ll wait for you downstairs.
See you later.”
After hanging up the call, Ashton Heath opened the door and left his office.
As he passed by the work area of several secretaries, his cold face and the low-pressure atmosphere around him scared the secretaries to the point of holding their breath.
Only after Ashton entered the elevator and the elevator doors closed did the secretaries huddle together and start a low-voiced curious discussion.
“President Ashton seems in a bad mood today — could it be because of the scandals about his girlfriend?”
“Do you think, are those scandals true?
Did President Ashton’s girlfriend really have…
an abortion in senior high school?”
“Is the rumor about her and Mr.
Parker true?”
“How is it possible?
Mr.
Parker and our President Ashton are good friends.
One does not covet the wife of a friend, even if Mr.
Parker is really interested in President’s Ashton’s girlfriend, he wouldn’t act on it.
That would be belittling President Ashton.”
“But, where there’s smoke there’s fire.
Why do only rumors about Mr.
Parker and her circulate, and not about Mr.
Parker and others?
So won really are promiscuous, liking to keep several n on the string.
Of course, I don’t think Ms.
Joanna is like that.
After all, with such an excellent and perfect boyfriend like President Ashton, it’s hard for her to have thoughts about other n.”
“Do you think, would President Ashton quarrel with his girlfriend over those rumors?”
“I don’t think so.
I’ve heard that President Ashton has already let the Public Relations Departnt handle his girlfriend’s situation.
If President Ashton believed those scandals, he would have broken up with her instead of helping her.”

Five minutes later.
The taxi Joanna Lawrence was riding in stopped outside the gate of the Heath Group building on ti.
As soon as she got out of the car, she saw a man standing outside the gate.
His temperant and appearance were top-notch.
Even if Joanna wasn’t his wife, she would have noticed such an outstanding man at first sight.
Moreover, Ashton Heath was her husband.
Employees entering and exiting the building would stop to respectfully greet him when passing by him.
In the past, although Ashton Heath wasn’t a kind and friendly boss to get along with,
he would still nod in return when employees greeted him.
But today, he kept a straight face throughout, giving no response to the greetings from the employees.
It was the hottest ti in the sumr.
The sun outside was blazing, making the tarmac hot.
Even though they were still a dozen ters apart, Joanna could already feel the cold emanating from the man’s body.
Ashton Heath was upset.
With just a glance, Joanna could tell his mood was very bad.
Even though his exterior seed the sa as usual — after all, he had always been indifferent towards others except her.
He appeared to be indifferent now.
His expression was bland, his face showing no emotion.
It looked the sa as usual.
But Joanna could tell that he was angry, and he was probably very, very angry.
His deanor made her a little hesitant to approach him.
After hesitating by the roadside for a few seconds, she finally began to walk towards him.
As soon as she took a step, the man, as if sensing sothing, raised his head and looked at her.
