Capítulo 2421: Chapter 2413: How Can He Be So Cold
Wendy Arden’s outstretched hand froze in midair.
She watched as Ashton Heath just walked away like that, stunned for a few seconds, her face instantly turned extrely ugly.
After a few more seconds, she turned her head and glared fiercely at the playboys in the private room, then turned and ran after Ashton Heath.
She jogged to catch up with Ashton, panting behind him: “Ashton, wait for , I can’t catch my breath.”
Ashton Heath suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Wendy’s face lit up with joy, only to feel an icy-cold gaze fall upon her.
It was as if a layer of frost had enveloped her, the cold seeping into her bones, making her shiver.
She raised her head in panic and t a pair of icy-cold eyes, her heart skipped a beat for a few seconds, feeling terrified: “Ashton, you… ”
“Stop following .” Ashton’s voice was cold and carried a warning, “Stay away from .”
“And don’t ever call ‘Ashton’ again. You’re not worthy.”
Wendy’s facial expression seed to freeze in place, her entire face appearing stiff.
She looked at the man in front of her, his whole being exuding coldness and indifference in his gaze, and that uncontrollable fear erged again.
She was overpowered by the man’s strong aura, unable to utter a word.
Her heart was filled with dread, yet when she thought of him coming to help her, she found a glimr of hope in that fear.
She pursed her lips, clenched her fists, took a deep breath, and gathered her courage: “You, you’re just pretending to be an to , aren’t you? I, I know you’re actually a good person. Thank you so much for what you did just now, if it wasn’t for you… ”
“If it wasn’t for Joanna asking to help, whether you lived or died would have nothing to do with .” Ashton interrupted her self-comfort impatiently. “I’m not interested in wasting ti talking to you. I’ll say it once more – stop following .”
With that said, Ashton turned around and walked towards the waiting Joanna Lawrence.
Wendy Arden stood there, frozen in place.
It was only now that she saw Joanna Lawrence sitting by the window.
She had thought Ashton was alone.
Recalling Ashton’s words earlier, her face turned from pale to white, and that glimr of hope that had just erged in her heart was ruthlessly crushed again.
So, he ca to help because of his wife?
Not because he wanted to help?
He even said that if it weren’t for his wife, whether she lived or died would have nothing to do with him…
How could he be so cold-hearted?
Wendy suddenly felt extrely wronged and sad, her tears uncontrollably flowing out.

Joanna Lawrence saw Ashton Heath coming back and peeked over at his side: “Why are you alone?”
Ashton found her question strange: “If not alone, then how many people could I be with?”
“What about Wendy Arden?” Joanna frowned slightly, “You didn’t just leave her behind, did you?”
Ashton sat down beside her, imdiately pulling her into his embrace. A hint of discontent floated across his handso and deep face: “Baby, who is she to you that you care about her so much? Have I ever not completed a task you’ve assigned to ?”
“I brought her out and told her to leave on her own.” Ashton didn’t want to ntion Wendy Arden at all, and casually explained, “Helping her was already going above and beyond. Don’t even think about making bring a third wheel over.”
