"Don’t keep looking at with the eyes of an injured person, okay?"
Joanna noticed that Ashton seed to be in good spirits and didn’t show any signs of exhaustion. This put her sowhat at ease.
She nodded, "Alright. But since you’ve lost so much blood, you need to replenish it. You’ll need a nutritionist to co up with so nourishing als for you during this ti. It’s important to make up for the lost blood!"
Ashton had no objections to this.
The warm hand on Joanna’s head gently rubbed her scalp as a tender and indulgent voice ca from above, "You make the arrangents, and I’ll just follow your lead."
"Also, your right hand is injured, which will definitely affect your daily life. I think you should take it easy with work for now, and let your subordinates handle any non-urgent matters. Dr. Lancaster said you shouldn’t overuse your hand before it fully heals."
"Alright, that’s not a problem. But there are two things that I might need your help with, baby."
Ashton’s laughter laced with flirtatious undertones reached Joanna’s ears.
Joanna blinked curiously, "What things?"
"They’re not a big deal." Ashton chuckled softly, his handso face suddenly leaned closer to her. He bent down next to her ear and said in a low voice that only the two of them could hear, "My injured hand can’t touch water. So, I might need your help when I take a shower."
As he finished speaking, his warm breath spread across Joanna’s ear.
Her earlobe suddenly felt hot.
The husky and flirtatious voice continued whispering in her ear, "Apart from showering, there’s another more important thing that I need your help with."
"Since I can’t use my hand, so things might need you to take the initiative."
At this point, not only did Joanna’s earlobe feel hot, but her entire face flushed red as well.
She shouldn’t have asked!
Seeing the splendid red flush on her pale face, Ashton’s eyes couldn’t help but darken. He lightly stroked her burning cheek and teased, "What’s made you blush? Did I say sothing wrong?"
"Ashton Heath, can’t you be more serious!"
"How am I not serious? My hand is injured, and you heard what Denver just said. There are things that I’m not able to do myself, so who else can I ask for help if not you, baby?"
Joanna raised her blushing face to et his teasing gaze and couldn’t help but feel even hotter, "You know what I an! Ashton Heath, you’re doing this on purpose, you hooligan!"
She understood him very well by now!
Ashton couldn’t help but laugh, "Baby, when you call a hooligan, is it because I asked for your help with showering or because I asked you to..."
"Don’t say another word!" Before he could finish speaking, Joanna covered his mouth with her hand, angrily and speechlessly glaring at him, "Just forget about it for now. You need to focus on healing, can’t you just be more content and stop thinking about such things?"
"Absolutely not." Ashton frowned, removed her hand from his mouth, and put on a very serious expression. He spoke with gravity, "Only my hand is injured, not my... Why should I have to live an abstinent life?"
