It was not her being pretentious.
Having resources to use was, of course, a good thing.
She could spare a lot of worries and detours.
However, she still hoped that she could obtain this role by herself.
That way, she would be more confident.
"Did you remember what I just told you?"
Ashton Heath was not at ease at all.
This was not the first time he had been separated from Joanna Lawrence.
When she used to stay at school, she would only come home on weekends, so they were apart on weekdays as well
But he wasn’t as worried back then.
Even though they were apart, they were still in the same city.
They were not far from each other.
If he wanted to see her, he could see her every day.
Whenever she had any issues, he could rush to her side immediately.
If she were to go to another city, even though they wouldn’t be far apart, and it only took a three-hour flight to reach her,
it wouldn’t be so easy for him to see her as he wanted.
If she had any issues, he couldn’t rush to her side right away.
The anxiety of not being able to see her every day or be by her side immediately made him very uneasy about her.
She would be going to another city alone; would she be able to adapt to the weather and environment there?
She didn’t know anyone in the film crew, and as a newbie with no fame yet with an eye-catching appearance, she could possibly be envied by others.
Would anyone bully her then?
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt, and he couldn’t help but want to pack his bags and go with her.
However, he was still somewhat rational.
If it wasn’t for just taking over Heath Group and needing to personally deal with many matters that he couldn’t leave behind, he might have really gone with her.
She really was...not worry-free at all.
From this moment on, he would be constantly worried until she finished filming the TV series.
Joanna Lawrence was looking at her phone, answering a bit absentmindedly: "...Uh, I know."
Ashton Heath was not happy with this.
He directly snatched her phone away.
Joanna Lawrence: "...What are you doing? Give me back my phone."
She was about to call Nina.
Ashton Heath stopped, locked her phone, and looked down at her, half-squinting, "Baby, did you hear everything I just told you? Is your phone that fun? We’re about to part, shouldn’t you be looking at me more?"
He sounded a bit sour, as if he was jealous.
But ... was he even jealous of the phone?!
"I wasn’t playing with my phone." Joanna Lawrence explained seriously, "I was just sending a message to Nina on Twitter, asking where she was. She didn’t reply to my message, so I was about to call her, but you took my phone away."
"What’s the hurry?" Ashton Heath’s face still had a hint of dissatisfaction, "She can’t run away, and it doesn’t matter if you contact her later. Did you really remember everything I just told you?"
"I remember, I remember, I’ve been listening."
Joanna Lawrence hadn’t thought that Ashton Heath could be so naggy.
He’d asked the same question several times.
She couldn’t help but mutter softly, "Ah, so naggy."
Ashton Heath, who heard every word clearly: "..."
He was actually... nagged about by his wife.
For the first time in his life, someone had called him naggy.
And that someone was his wife.
For a moment, his feelings were a bit indescribable.
But even if he was nagged at, what could be done?
This person was his wife. Could he grab her and give her a beating?
