She wasn’t sure if Ashton Heath had instructed it to be done this way, or if Cody Aberton had done it himself.
Anyway, she thought it was quite considerate and thoughtful of them.
"Has the heartthrob left already?" Aria Rowlett was confused for a moment, then asked, "So, these breakfasts are just for the two of us?"
No, to be precise, they were prepared for Joanna Lawrence.
Aria was just taking advantage of the meal.
"Mhm." Joanna nodded, "So, we need to eat as much as we can, try not to leave too many leftovers."
"The heartthrob left and is still thinking about your breakfast. Wow..." Aria sighed enviously, "Baby, he’s so thoughtful and caring towards you. You’re so lucky. I remember when you were dating David Benington, I didn’t see that scumbag being so considerate."
"It turns out, you can tell how much a man loves you, cares about you, from the many little details. Heartthrob is so much better than scumbag David."
Joanna’s hand, holding her cup, tightened.
Her lips pursed and her expression stiffened for a moment, but she said nothing.
Aria’s words were blunt.
But they were also very true.
Although Joanna had given up on David, she wouldn’t hold any more expectations, but that was still the man she once liked.
She can’t say she’d been deeply in love, but she had really liked him.
Young love is often the most unforgettable.
And it isn’t something that can be forgotten quickly.
Aria finished criticizing David, turned her head, saw Joanna’s expression, and was stunned. She immediately apologized to her: "I’m sorry, Baby, my brain just short-circuited and I said something I shouldn’t have. I shouldn’t have..."
How could she forget?
Joanna and David had known each other for ten years, and David was Joanna’s first love. No matter how scumbag David became, he was still someone she once loved.
It’s impossible for a ten-year relationship to have no feelings at all in an instant.
Even if she was criticizing David now, those words would still hurt Joanna’s feelings.
Sometimes, she could be so stupid, she wanted to slap herself.
"It’s fine." Joanna was silent for a while, picked up her cup and took a sip of milk before giving a faint smile, "Actually, what you said is correct. You can tell a lot about someone from the little things. I thought it was because we had known each other for too long that our relationship became plain."
"Now that I think about it, the signs of him cheating on me with Annie Lawrence were evident long ago. I just believed in him too much and didn’t want to consider that possibility."
As a result, she was slapped hard by reality.
Aria’s eyes were full of remorse, "Baby, let’s not think about those unhappy things. Anyway, you have the heartthrob doting on you and taking care of you now. If you think about it in another way, you two wouldn’t have gotten together if those things hadn’t happened. Replacing one scumbag for a heartthrob, such a great man, is always a gain no matter how you look at it. Alright, let’s not talk about this unhappy topic. Let’s talk about something else."
"By the way, is Jeremy still in the hospital? How is his condition?" Aria changed the subject.
As Joanna’s best friend and roommate, Aria knew about Jeremy Lawrence’s sudden heart attack and hospitalization.
Speaking of Jeremy, Joanna’s brow furrowed slightly, "I called the hospital yesterday, and he’s temporarily stabilized."
