60 -60: He’s Not Easy to Mess with, Neither am I!
Seeing her walk in, the other two roommates looked at each other before finally asking, “Joanna, are you sure you don’t want to hide?”
Aria Rowlett also looked worried, “Baby, it’s not too late for you to leave now.”
Joanna Lawrence squatted on the floor, moving her things onto the bed one by one.
She calmly said to Aria Rowlett, “Aria, when have you ever seen me at a disadvantage?”
Aria thought about it carefully, seemingly she hadn’t.
Joanna looked like the kind of pretty, adorable girl who was easy to take advantage of.
But those who knew her well understood that her soft-spoken demeanor was just a facade.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have made Moon Broadley and Tessa Wright cry earlier.
But…
“Baby, that older male friend of Moon’s is really not someone to mess with.
They say he’s involved in some shady stuff, you really shouldn’t be so reckless.”
“If he’s not to be messed with, neither am I.”
With the assurance from Ashton Heath himself, she had nothing to fear.
Her husband was very powerful too!
Ten or a hundred of Moon’s older male friends collectively couldn’t match up to him.
Aria Rowlett: “…”
“Don’t worry, Aria.”
Joanna slowly stood up, patted her on the shoulder, “I’m not stupid, I’ve brought backup.
Moon and the others won’t have an advantage over me.”
“You also brought support?” Aria remembered the phone call she had made earlier, curiosity filled her eyes, “So, you were calling someone to help you?
Who did you call?
Can we rely on him?” freewebnøvel.com
“We can absolutely rely on him.
There’s no one more dependable.”
Aria looked at her, noticing her completely unperturbed demeanor, and couldn’t help but wonder if she had called David Benington.
If it was David, there would indeed be nothing to worry about then.
Moon’s older male friend’s family still couldn’t compare to David—no matter how one looked at it the Benington family was one of the top ten noble families in Closia.
But she felt that it was unlikely.
Given Joanna’s temperament, if David betrayed her, there was no way she would ask him for help again.
So, who could it be?

Heath Group.
Inside the vast conference room.
The senior executives were trembling, scared to even draw a breath.
Just now, President Ashton vetoed one of their proposals.
That proposal was the result of their team’s tireless efforts, burning the midnight oil for an entire month before being finalized.
But, President Ashton glanced at it for less than a minute.
He didn’t even finish reviewing all the content before he shot it down.
Shot it down…
The executives almost started to cry.
Would they have to work overtime for another month?
If they continued to work overtime, they would lose the little hair they had left on their heads.
But if President Ashton said no, it was a no.
Nobody dared to refute him.
Even the veterans who had been with the company for decades did not dare underestimate this young CEO who had just turned 25.
“This is what you guys came up with after a month of thinking?
This idea that any college student could easily produce, you dare to bring it in front of me?”
“It seems that the Heath Group is harboring too many loafers, it’s time for a large-scale layoff.”
At these words, the faces of all the senior executives in the conference room turned pale.
*buzz buzz*
At this moment, Ashton Heath’s cell phone, which was lying on the table, began to vibrate.
He, who usually would not even glance at his phone throughout a meeting, immediately lowered his head to pick it up.
Then, he answered it immediately.
After he answered, he didn’t say anything else and got up to leave the meeting room.
After he left,
The senior executives commented in shock, “Who called President Ashton?
He answered it so quickly?”
