980: Chapter 978: From now on, can you call like this?
Every ti she cos back, she always goes to Aria Rowlett first.
As her husband, he ends up being cast aside instead.
The fact that he was less important to her than Jeremy Lawrence was one thing, now even her best friend was more important than him.
“No, that’s not it.” Joanna Lawrence noticed the dissatisfaction in his eyes and imdiately hooked her hand around his neck to coax him, “I have so work matters to discuss, and I’ve arranged to have dinner with Linda tonight.
Don’t be angry, okay?
I’ll spend all the remaining ti with you after dinner, alright?”
Ashton Heath still kept a straight face: “What work matters are so important that they must be discussed today, and in person?”
He had initially thought that her flying back to Closia was to surprise him.
But now it seed that he had thought too much.
He couldn’t begin to describe how choked up Ashton Heath was feeling on the inside.
It felt like he was the one pining for her.
“Uh.” Joanna Lawrence considered for a mont, deciding not to tell him about the termination of her contract just yet.
She had only signed the contract a few days ago, and now she was terminating it already.
She felt too embarrassed to speak of this matter in front of Ashton Heath.
She couldn’t help but feel…
extrely mortified.
She must be the artist who had the shortest ti between signing and termination in the entire industry.
She had originally wanted to perform well in front of Ashton Heath to prove her abilities to him.
If he knew that she had been dismissed by the company so soon, it would be utterly humiliating for her.
Joanna Lawrence hesitated and lied, “It’s about so stuff related to post-production.
It’s hard to articulate over the phone, hence the need for a face-to-face discussion.”
“I see.”
Having heard her explanation, Ashton Heath felt a bit relieved, but his face still lacked a smile, “Can’t you change the ti?
Does it have to be discussed today?”
He had already planned how to schedule their wonderful date tonight.
Her sudden appointnt made him quite disappointed.
“Uh, probably not.” Joanna Lawrence looked up at his still solemn and handso face.
Biting her lip corner in hesitation, she found that her coquetry was probably not enough.
So she tiptoed up and quickly gave him a kiss on his lips.
“Husband, I know you’re the most understanding.” She knew what Ashton Heath liked to be called.
After a soft call of “husband,” she saw his face imdiately soften a bit.
Seeing that this trick worked, a triumph flashed across her eyes, she continued to push, “Husband, I’ll try to eat less, so my stomach will be empty.
After dinner with her, we can eat dinner together.
Is that okay?”
“But if you don’t want to wait for , then never mind…”
The girl’s voice in his arms was naturally soft and sweet.
Calling him “husband” when she was being coquettish was an enchanting experience, neither too sweet nor sycophantic.
Coupled with her blushing face, Ashton Heath felt as though his bones were about to lt at that mont.
It felt as though his soul was being snatched away,
His breathing beca a little frantic, the arm that was wrapped around her lithe waist involuntarily tightened as he spoke, his voice a tad husky, “Baby, I like hearing you call husband.
Can you always call that from now on?”
Of course, Joanna Lawrence knew he liked it.
He always got excited every ti she called him that.
But normally, she hardly ever addressed him as such.
Although they were a husband and wife, and there was nothing wrong with her calling him that, she always felt a little embarrassed.
