But the moment he saw her just now, he knew he probably wouldn’t be able to.
Upon getting off the car, Ashton Heath’s remarkable appearance and sturdy physique gathered quite a few stares.
The man was dressed entirely in black. His looks were utmost handsome, he had a frosty aura, and his entire being exuded a strong sense of discipline.
Even from several meters away, you could feel the aloofness emanating from him, making others keep their distance.
Yet such a forbiddingly cold man had a pink leather bracelet tied around the exposed part of his wrist.
A pink leather bracelet with a ribbon bow, at that.
At a glance, it seemed to be something a girl would use.
But now, it was tied around a man’s wrist.
What this represented was clear without saying.
The girls who were secretly taking pictures of Ashton Heath with their mobile phones felt a sting when they noticed the pink leather bracelet.
Such a top-notch handsome guy, surprisingly already taken.
They really wanted to know what his girlfriend looked like.
To be able to get such an aloof man under her control.
And to willingly let him wear a leather bracelet on his wrist.
This man must really like his girlfriend, right?
While others were looking at the leather bracelet on Ashton’s wrist, Cody Aberton was also looking at it.
Suddenly feeling something was off, he looked up to find President Ashton looking at him expressionlessly.
Cody Aberton instantly recoiled, quickly retracting his gaze: "Ahem, President Ashton, this bracelet Ms. Joanna gave you...it’s quite pretty."
He was simply looking for a conversation starter.
But surprisingly, upon hearing his words, Ashton Heath pursed his lips, nodded, and said, "It’s a gift from my wife, of course it’s pretty. Do you know what this bracelet represents?"
Cody Aberton looked dumbfounded and shook his head.
He had never worn one.
And besides, there’s no chance he would ever wear such a feminine accessory.
Of course, he only dared to think this stuff, he didn’t dare voice it out loud.
No matter how feminine the accessory, it was still a gift from Ms. Joanna to President Ashton.
Looking at how happy President Ashton was, if he dared to say anything bad about it, President Ashton would surely banish him to Fronterra to work in a coal mine.
The thought alone was terrifying.
Ashton Heath looked at him somewhat disdainfully: "You being a single man and not knowing is normal."
How did his lifestyle become a target out of nowhere?
What’s wrong with being a single man?
Does being single mean one has to be ridiculed, sneered at, laughed at, and looked down upon by others?
It’s not like he can’t get a girlfriend.
He just hasn’t found a woman he likes yet.
This is called being selective!
"President Ashton, since I am single and don’t know, could you please tell me what this bracelet represents?" Thinking of his hefty monthly salary and the work benefits that made his peers drool, Cody Aberton grumbled in his heart for a while, but his face was full of smiles.
Ashton Heath smiled, a trace of triumph in his eyes: "This bracelet is her mark on me. Wearing this bracelet, no other woman will covet me. She must care about me very much, and fear that other women may tempt me, which is why she made me wear this bracelet."
"Cody Aberton, don’t you think that Ms. Joanna really likes me? Is she so insecure because of that?"
