Besides, Annie Lawrence saw her at the audition that day.
Perhaps she knew Joanna had succeeded and wanted to sar her in order to make her lose the role of Female Lead 3.
All of these were entirely possible.
Thinking this, the anger in Joanna’s heart grew even stronger.
It seed that there were so things she couldn’t avoid just by wishing to.
No matter how much she tried to avoid them, they were simply unwilling to let her go.
If she continued like this, always on the defensive, always not knowing how to retaliate after being attacked, then she would no longer deserve to be nad Joanna Lawrence.
She might as well rena herself to Softy Lawrence.
Joanna was the sort of person who generally didn’t like to cause trouble due to it being botherso, but once she decided to fight back, she was determined to turn the tables in her favor spectacularly.
“You can do whatever you want.” Ashton Heath’s deep voice contained a touch of indulgence, “Ms.
Joanna, I am willing to assist you without any conditions.”

Jeremy’s investigation yielded results quickly as well.
She was halfway through her al when Jeremy called her.
His investigation had concluded that the source of the posts was indeed from the Lawrence family’s residence.
Over the phone, Jeremy was livid.
If not for Joanna’s persuasion, he was ready to storm back to the Lawrence family ho to give Annie a beating.
Eventually, after much pleading, Joanna managed to calm him down.
After hanging up the phone, her mind wasn’t on the food anymore.
She was considering how to retaliate against Annie.
She was lost in thought for a while, and a pile of food had already gathered on her plate.
Seeing her still in a daze, Ashton Heath pinched her cheek gently, suggesting softly, “Stop thinking for now, eat first.
You can think about other things once you have a full stomach.”
“Oh.”
Joanna picked up her knife and fork, looking down to see her steak had been cut into small pieces.
The size of the at pieces was just right for her to eat in one bite.
The steak on Ashton Heath’s plate, however, remained a whole piece, untouched.
Her heart imdiately felt ward, appreciating his thoughtful actions.
Undeniably, although Ashton Heath appeared to be cold and aloof on the outside, exhibiting a vibe that made him difficult to approach, when he truly wanted to take care of soone or treat soone well, he was overwhelmingly good.
Unable to think of a course of action in that mont, Joanna eventually gave up pondering and started to enjoy the steak that Ashton Heath had sliced for her.

After they had eaten, Ashton Heath drove Joanna back to her school.
Things at his company required his attention, so he didn’t linger around.
Before he left, they chatted in the car for a few minutes.
Joanna had the habit of taking a nap.
She had two classes in the afternoon scheduled after three o’clock.
It wasn’t exactly a rush, so upon reaching her dorm, she went straight to her bedroom to nap.
After dropping Joanna off, Ashton Heath drove back to the company and took the elevator directly to his floor.
Upon reaching the 37th floor and stepping out of the elevator, he bumped into Cody Aberton, who was walking towards him.
Seeing him, Cody Aberton hurried to his side and respectfully said, “President Ashton, Benjamin Lawrence has agreed to mortgage the Lawrence family’s villa to pay off the debts.
We can officially process the property transfer tomorrow.”
A smile tugged at the corner of Ashton Heath’s lips: “Very good.”
Just wait until the property transfer is completed, she would have a surprise.
She would definitely be thrilled.
With this in mind, a hint of a joyful chuckled spilled from Ashton Heath’s eyes.
Cody Aberton was taken aback by seeing his boss’s cheerful expression for a mont.
