Usually, she enjoys shopping.
She would invite Aria Rowlett to go shopping every weekend.
But today, she was with Ashton Heath.
Men generally hate shopping.
Joanna Lawrence naturally wouldn’t force him to do something he didn’t like.
She could always go shopping with Aria Rowlett if she wanted to.
Ashton Heath hesitated, his eyes flashing with surprise.
Didn’t Cody Aberton say that women love shopping?
Why didn’t she seem interested?
He was silent for a few seconds before lightly raising his eyebrows: "Is there really nothing you want to buy? If there is, I’ll go with you."
"Didn’t you say you only got the audition thanks to Aria Rowlett’s help?" Ashton Heath thought for a moment and continued, "She helped you, shouldn’t you buy her a gift to thank her? We can go to the mall and pick out something for her."
Joanna Lawrence looked at him with surprise.
Ashton Heath met her gaze: "What’s the matter?"
She shook her head: "Nothing. I just didn’t expect you to be so thoughtful. Even I didn’t think of that, but you did."
"You’re right, Aria did help me a lot. I should buy her a gift to express my gratitude."
"But... are you sure you want to go shopping with me?"
Ashton Heath nodded: "Yes. Is there a problem?"
"No problem." Joanna Lawrence looked at him and said, "I’m just afraid you’ll find it boring and uninteresting. Don’t you men dislike shopping?"
Ashton Heath looked at her for a while: "Yes, we don’t like it. But it depends on who we’re doing it with."
The man’s black, enchanting gaze fixed on her, his voice deep and seductive: "With someone you like, nothing is boring."
Joanna Lawrence froze, her heart pounding.
Her fair, delicate face blushed.
At that moment, she could hear her heart violently pounding in her chest.
This man, Ashton Heath...
Why did he have to be so flirtatious?
Did he secretly read books like "Whispers of Love"?
How come he could say such sweet words so effortlessly?
This didn’t seem like the behavior of someone who claimed to have never been in love.
Even without experience in love, he was better at flirting than many men who had been in relationships. If he had been more experienced, wouldn’t all the women in the world fall for him?
Anyway, she felt like she had been flirted with.
Facing such a handsome face and hearing his words, she had no resistance.
"Ashton Heath." She swallowed, touching her chest where her heart still trembled rapidly, "Are you sure you’ve never been in love before?"
Ashton Heath paused, raising his eyebrows: "I’m sure. Why?"
Joanna Lawrence pursed her lips: "Then how do you know how to speak so well? You don’t seem like someone who hasn’t been in love."
He seemed experienced and knew how to please women.
Ashton Heath chuckled softly, his voice even more seductive: "Did what I just said please you?"
Joanna Lawrence looked up at his stunning, refined face and the bewitching smile on the corner of his lips. Her heartbeat quickened even more.
Looking like that and smiling so charmingly...
Was he trying to deliberately captivate her?
If it was deliberate, then he had succeeded.
