9: Chapter 9: I swear, everything I say is true.
The man who walked in was wearing a pink shirt, with his hair done in the currently trendy dirty braids, and a pair of gleaming black diamond earrings adorned his ears.
There was a flicker of nervousness on his strikingly handsome face, looking extremely uneasy.
He took a few steps inside and balked when he was about to move forward.
He stood slightly forward with his head bowed, about five or six meters away from Ashton Heath.
With his hands folded in front of him, he stood like a young schoolboy waiting for his teacher to scold him, “Ashton, I was wrong.
I was blinded by my greed last night and committed such an outrageous act!
Ashton, you can hit or yell at me, but please, don’t send me back to the old man.”
Ashton Heath lifted his head, uttering a silent cold laugh, “Grady, you’ve got quite a nerve!
For what you did last night, a good beating would be letting you off easy.
You deserve to die a hundred times over!”
“Ashton, I really know I was wrong!” Yannick Luther’s handsome face was pale with fear.
He walked over to Ashton Heath, suddenly threw himself to the ground, clutched his thigh and broke down, “Ashton, I won’t dare to do it again.
Let bygones be bygones, forgive me just this once!
Plus, you didn’t lose your chastity last night after all…”
Ashton Heath glanced at him distastefully and kicked him away, “Grady, you better come clean about every last detail of what happened last night.
Otherwise, I’ll make sure you leave the way you came in – but horizontally this time.”
Yannick Luther trembled with fear.
He continued to sob uncontrollably, then he confessed everything while sobbing and sniffling.
After finishing, he pleaded: “Ashton, in consideration of the beauty who had a car accident, forgive me just this once.
I swear, I’ll never do this again.”
Ashton Heath’s expression changed suddenly, his eyes revealing a flicker of surprise, “You said, she had a car accident?”
“YesYesYes.” Yannick Luther would have happily revealed everything about his ancestry now, “She’s still in the hospital.”
Despite Ashton Heath’s seemingly calm exterior, turmoil raged within him.
Grady probably wouldn’t have the nerve to lie anymore.
So, if the woman they had arranged got into a car accident, then who was the one who appeared in his room and tangled with him all night?
His brows furrowed deeply.
Upon seeing this, Yannick Luther was terrified and began sobbing once again, “Ashton, Ashton, I’ve confessed everything.
I swear, every word was true, not a single lie!”
Ashton Heath cast his gaze downward, staring intently at him for a moment, then he kicked him in the leg and said, “Get lost.”
Yannick Luther scrambled up from the ground as if he had escaped death, turned around, and fled at top speed, “Ok!
Ashton, I’m leaving right away.”
Before the blink of an eye, his figure had disappeared without a trace.
He didn’t know that Yannick Luther was so timid, yet dared to plot against President Ashton last night.
But, from what Yannick just said, it seemed the woman who went into President Ashton’s room last night was not someone they had arranged, but an outsider?
As he was mulling over this, a chill, deep voice resounded in his ears.
“Find out who the woman in my room was last night.”
“Yes, President Ashton.”
Jeremy Lawrence awoke.
Joanna Lawrence was holding his hand, looking at his pale, wan face and said with concern, “Jeremy, how do you feel?
Shall I have the doctor come over and take a look at you?”
“Joanna, I’m fine now.”
