1161: Chapter 1158: This Lesson, He Deserves It 1161: Chapter 1158: This Lesson, He Deserves It She truly wished that Joanna Lawrence could have a good life.
Joanna could feel Mrs.
Benington’s sincerity, and she nodded and said, “Yes, I will.
If Mrs.
Benington wants to attend my wedding, I would love for you to co.”
“Alright, let’s make this promise here.”
After Mrs.
Benington finished speaking, she left without even looking at David Benington because she was angry with him.
David was dumbfounded and took a few seconds to react before imdiately chasing after her.
Before he left, he glared fiercely at Ashton Heath and locked eyes with Joanna for a mont, then turned around to chase after his mother.
*
“Ashton Heath, did you cause the problems at Benington Group?”
After they left the restaurant and got into the car, Joanna directly asked Ashton Heath.
She had known David for ten years.
She also often interacted with the Benington family.
So, she had a clear understanding of many things within the Benington family.
The developnt of Benington Group had always been stable, and it even developed better in recent years.
It was unlikely that they would suddenly experience a financial crisis.
That’s why the Benington Group suddenly encountered heavy losses, which were mostly caused by Ashton Heath.
He had previously used the sa thod to deal with Hook Group, causing them to go bankrupt overnight.
“Yes, it was .” Ashton Heath fastened his seatbelt, turned his head to look at her, his eyes calm and honest.
“I know what you want to say to , but with him treating you like that, if I were to remain indifferent, what kind of person would I be?”
“He deserves this lesson.”
If she knew how he had dealt with others in the past, she would know that this ti he had gone easy on them.
He didn’t let Benington Group die directly but gave them a chance to save themselves.
It was only because of her that he didn’t completely destroy them since he knew she still had so feelings for the Benington family.
However, David had to pay the price.
“I know he deserves to be taught a lesson, and I support your decision to do so.
I’m not trying to plead for rcy on his behalf.” Joanna felt that she must make Ashton understand her stance clearly.
“Whatever you want to do to him, I have no objections.”
Now, she was so disgusted with David that just ntioning his na would make her feel sick both ntally and physically.
She didn’t care at all about how miserable David’s future would be.
Even if he ended up a beggar on the streets, she wouldn’t feel pity or sympathy for him.
However, seeing Mrs.
Benington’s depressed deanor earlier, she couldn’t help but feel a bit of compassion.
Ashton looked at her and raised his eyebrows slightly, “So, what do you want to say?”
“I just think that David is a scumbag, and he should be punished.
But the others are innocent.
It’s a bit too severe to make the entire Benington family suffer because of one person’s actions.”
“So, what do you want to do?”
“I just think that Mr.
and Mrs.
Benington are innocent, and they’ve always been kind to .
So…
could you spare the Benington family a way out?
At least, could you not completely destroy them, please?”
She spoke carefully, afraid that he would be unhappy.
Ashton watched her, remaining silent.
Joanna looked anxious, “I’m not trying to speak up for David, please don’t misunderstand.
Are…
are you angry?”
“No.” After a mont of silence, Ashton finally spoke, “Considering the Benington Group’s foundation, it won’t collapse so easily.
I understand your feelings towards David’s parents.
I promise you, I won’t completely destroy the Benington family.”
