My Secret Billionaire Husband-Chapter 1887 - 1881: Wait for Me to Come Back, and I’ll Settle the Score with You Properly

His car trip today felt like entering a road with many sharp bends, and he had been driving for a long time before finally reaching the village.

If it were not for someone showing him the way, he would never have found the place.

In other words,

If someone from outside the village entered here, and there were no villagers to lead the way, they would not be able to leave. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Joanna Lawrence glanced at Ashton Heath’s face, feeling as if she had said something wrong again.

She quickly tried to remedy the situation: "But we don’t have to eat instant noodles. Yesterday, I bought a pound of meat and a fish. Although it’s not as good as home, the food we have here is definitely not bad. You know I would never skimp on food."

Even with her saying this, Ashton Heath’s face didn’t look much better.

"Ashton, I’m a little hungry. Shall we eat first? You probably haven’t had lunch either. We can eat together." Right now, Joanna only wanted to appease him first, and then discuss other matters slowly with him later.

Anyway, she could always act a bit more spoiled and say more nice things to him so that he would eventually agree to let her stay longer.

Ashton Heath pressed his lips together and was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Alright."

"Then I need to ask for a leave of absence. There’s not much to eat here, so it’s better in town. Let’s eat in town." Joanna herself didn’t mind eating something simple, but she felt that Ashton Heath would not be used to it.

Ashton Heath nodded again: "Okay."

"Then let’s go now." Joanna Lawrence held his hand, "There is a hotpot restaurant in town that tastes pretty good. Faye took us there before. The taste is quite light, and I think it’s suitable for you."

"Alright."

Ashton Heath had no opinion on what to eat.

The only reason he agreed was because Joanna Lawrence said she was hungry.

The two of them held hands and walked out of the room.

There they met Faye Lister, who had just come out of her room as well.

When Faye saw them, she was stunned for a moment, then smiled and greeted them amiably: "Joanna, your boyfriend came to see you? Are you guys going out?"

"Yeah, we’re going to get something to eat. Oh, Faye, let me introduce you. This is my boyfriend, Ashton Heath." After introducing Faye, Joanna introduced Ashton Heath, "This is Faye, she has taken great care of me."

Ashton Heath still wanted to save face for Joanna Lawrence.

He nodded at Faye Lister: "Ms. Kelloway, hello."

"Mr. Ashton, hello." Faye also greeted him back.

"Faye, I need to go out for a while and want to ask Giovanni for a leave. Do you know where Giovanni is now?"

"I just heard that he went fishing by the river. He should be coming back for dinner soon."

As soon as Faye finished speaking, Joanna saw Giovanni Vane walking into the yard.

Next to Giovanni, there was another man who looked to be in his forties.

Giovanni treated the man very politely, and the man seemed to be his boss.

The two men entered the courtyard.

The man saw Ashton Heath and hurriedly walked over with quick steps.

"Mr. Ashton, if you were coming, you should have told me in advance so I could arrange for someone to pick you up." The man stood in front of Ashton Heath with a respectful attitude, "Have you had a meal, Mr. Ashton? I’ll arrange for someone right away."

"No need, I’m going out to eat with Joanna," Ashton Heath’s attitude towards the man was not good, even showing a hint of anger, "Wait for me to come back, and then I’ll settle the score with you."

At these words, the man’s face changed instantly, and a look of panic appeared on his face.
