77 -77: Don’t Overthink It

Joanna Lawrence cried out in pain, her face wrinkling from the hurt.

Ashton Heath immediately stopped: “Does it hurt a lot?”

Before Joanna could say anything, Denver Lancaster nearby exclaimed, “Young lady, let me tell you, this is Ashton’s first time taking care of someone else.

If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed it.”

“Even Ms.

Rebecca, who grew up with him, has never received such treatment.”

As soon as Denver finished speaking, he felt a chill on his back, as if cold air had entered his body.

He shivered all over.

When he looked up, he saw Ashton Heath with half-lidded eyes, a cold gaze and a hint of warning in his eyes.

It took Denver a few seconds to realize that he seemed to have said something wrong.

He hastily explained, “Young lady, don’t misunderstand, Ashton and Ms.

Joanna have a pure friendship that can’t be purer.

They’ve known each other for so many years, and if there was something between them, they would have been together a long time ago.”

Joanna Lawrence looked at Denver Lancaster, confused.

Had she said something earlier?

“Really, Ashton and Ms.

Joanna are just like siblings.

You mustn’t overthink it.” Denver added, worried that she wouldn’t believe him.

His explanations only made Joanna more confused.

Meanwhile, Ashton Heath’s face grew darker and his gaze colder.

Denver suddenly realized that he seemed to be making things worse.

His explanation seemed to imply that there was something between Ashton Heath and Ms.

Rebecca.

Seeing Ashton’s expression getting worse, Denver quickly stood up and headed toward the door, thinking of how precious his life was, “Well, I guess I’m not needed here anymore. freewёbnoνel.com

I’ll be going now.

Let’s have dinner together when we’re all free.

Hahaha.”

After saying that, he quickly left as if he had put oil on his feet.

After Denver left,

Only Joanna Lawrence and Ashton Heath were left in the spacious Dean’s Office.

He continued to disinfect her wounds, and his movements were much gentler than before.

After wiping all the injured areas, he sprayed Luminex Healing Elixir on her once more.

As he wiped the wound on her leg, he crouched down and gently lifted her calf.

Her leg felt warm from his breathing.

It felt somewhat wet and ticklish.

Joanna Lawrence looked down at him, carefully applying the medicine, and her heart rate suddenly increased.

Perhaps it was because he had been a doctor before; he seemed very skilled at these things.

After treating all her scrapes, Ashton Heath checked her shoulder carefully.

After confirming that nothing was missed, he released her.

“Even though it’s just a minor scrape, be careful.” He tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear.

“When you get back, remember to apply the medicine regularly and don’t forget.”

“Okay, I got it.” Joanna Lawrence obediently nodded her head.

She wanted to return to school early and asked, “Can I go back to school now?”

Ashton Heath nodded.

He glanced at his watch and realized it was time for him to return to the company.

There were still many things waiting for him to handle at the company.

This trip had been a small break from his busy schedule.

“Let’s go then.”

Joanna Lawrence had always been well-behaved at school, never skipping classes or leaving early.

The performance class that afternoon was one she really enjoyed, taught by a teacher she liked, and she didn’t want to miss it.
