Doesn’t she know that it is dangerous for her to wander alone outside like this?
Fortunately, he decided to co and say hello to her.
And luckily, on his way here, he saw what had just happened.
Frank Parker’s greedy and infatuated gaze lingered on her body several tis before returning to her exquisite porcelain-white face, with a hint of obsession and embarrassnt in his eyes.
If she were his woman.
He would definitely keep her close and protect her from any danger.
He would protect her for his entire life.
Pamper her, love her, and give her everything he has.
He doesn’t know what Ashton Heath is thinking.
He still lets her stay in the entertainnt industry, a sprawling lting pot.
Doesn’t he know what kind of place the entertainnt industry is?
Even if she has soone to protect her, no one would dare to hurt her easily.
But that also applies to those who know her identity.
If soone doesn’t know her identity, her situation would beco very dangerous.
What just happened is a perfect example.
This ti, he happened to witness it.
If it happens again, and if no one protects her...
Frank Parker’s brow tightened, and he couldn’t help but say, "What’s wrong with Ashton Heath? Why would he let you film alone? Including what happened last ti, I’ve already seen danger approaching you twice."
"He knew about that too, but he still lets you co out to shoot? Doesn’t he worry about you encountering danger again?"
"Didn’t he tell how important you are to him and that he’ll take care of you and protect you? Is this his idea of taking care and protection?" His voice grew lower, his eyes showing resentnt, and his words even more dissatisfaction and accusation towards Ashton Heath.
When Joanna Lawrence heard him criticizing Ashton Heath, her brow wrinkled too. She took a deep breath, reminding herself that Frank Parker had just helped her, and what he was saying now was for her own good, so she shouldn’t argue with him.
But after thinking about it, she still couldn’t help but speak up.
"Frank Parker, you did help just now, and I am very grateful. But, I don’t think that ans you have any right or qualification to criticize my husband and assu he’s not taking care of . As far as I’m concerned, my husband and I have a great relationship, and I am very happy and well-cared for. He has fulfilled his duties as a husband by taking care of perfectly."
"I don’t like it when people talk about him like that; it’s unfair to him."
"Besides, the reason I chose to continue working in the entertainnt industry is that he truly respects . If he forced to leave the industry against my will, that would signify that he doesn’t value or respect ."
As Frank Parker listened to her defending Ashton Heath, his heart felt as though it was being sliced by sharp blades, one cut at a ti. The spreading pain radiated throughout his heart, making his handso face turn pale and his thin lips curl in mockery.
"Sorry." The depths of his voice carried a hint of self-mocking sarcasm, suppressing the bitter-sweet feeling in his throat, he rasped, "It’s none of my business. If you’re happy, then I have nothing to worry about."
Seeing his dejected appearance, Joanna Lawrence paused for a mont, then spoke in a distant tone, "We aren’t even friends, so there’s no need to worry. I wanted to thank you for your help, and I should have invited you for dinner, but..."
