80: Chapter 81: What on Earth Happened?
“You and Joanna have a significant history, she must hold a special place in your heart.
I’m scared that you may regret being with .”
“Silly girl, don’t talk nonsense.
How can I possibly regret it?
Knowing you, being with you, is the one thing in my life I would never regret.” The more afraid Annie appeared, the more gratified David felt.
It made him feel needed by her, as if, without him, she wouldn’t be able to go on.
And he really did feel that way in his heart.
Annie is vulnerable, she needs a man she can depend on.
Without soone taking care of her, her life is sure to fall apart.
Joanna, on the other hand, is a different story.
Despite her delicate facade, inviting pity and sympathy, she is a very independent woman.
Even without him, she can still lead a good life.
But if Annie lost him…
“Really?” Annie raised her teary eyes, choked up, “Could you promise one thing?”
“Okay, tell .” Seeing her pitiful look, David said, feeling sorry, “No matter what you ask, I promise.”
“Since Joanna still cares for you, in the future, could you try to et with her less?
David, you’re my boyfriend now, I don’t want you to see other won.”
She pouted, her tone sour with jealousy, “Even if that woman is Joanna, I can get jealous too.”
Hearing this, David was initially displeased, but observing her childish jealousy lted away his displeasure.
It was because she cared too much about him.
If she didn’t love him this much, she wouldn’t be this worried.
With that thought, David’s sympathy for her doubled.
Without any hesitation, he nodded, “Alright, I promise you.”
A trace of triumph flickered in Annie’s eyes, “Then you will now…”
“Let’s not go.” David softly ruffled her hair, “It’s a small disagreent, no need for to intervene.
Let’s continue choosing jewelry.”
“David, you’re the best.”
Annie tiptoed to give him a kiss on the lips, her face beaming with satisfaction.
Ah, Joanna, what about your longstanding relationship with David?
In his heart, aren’t I more important?

Upon reaching the office, he called in Cody Aberton.
“President Ashton.” Cody entered the president’s office and greeted him respectfully.
Ashton picked up a docunt, without lifting his gaze, “Tomorrow, negotiate the acquisition of Hook Group.”
Cody was startled, “Acquisition?
President Ashton, are you planning to acquire Hook Group?”
This ca quite unexpectedly.
He hadn’t hinted at any intentions of this before.
“Yes,” Ashton flipped through a few pages of the docunt and added, “Also, make a call to the principal of Closia Film School later, inform him about two female students who exhibit poor conduct, so he can take expulsion asures.”
Cody: “…”
Why say he’s going off to acquire a company and expel students from a school after just one trip?
What had happened exactly?
As for the school, there’s no big issue.
