Chapter 116: For You, I'm Willing to Compromise

"They..."

Joanna Lawrence never thought about telling Ashton Heath the truth, and she initially planned to find a random excuse.

However, Aria Rowlett straightforwardly blurted out: "They had a conflict with us, so they left."

Ashton Heath raised an eyebrow: "A conflict? What kind of conflict?"

Before Joanna could stop her, Aria had already spewed out all the details.

Finishing the story, she angrily asked: "Heartthrob, don't you think they were totally out of line? You gave them gifts and even invited them to such a nice place for dinner, and they actually thought Joanna was showing off on purpose! You weren't there, you didn't see their sour faces, it was just so painful to look at."

After hearing this, Ashton's face darkened slightly.

He lowered his head and asked Joanna: "Is it like what she said?"

Feeling a bit helpless, Joanna glared at Aria, sighed, and nodded.

She really didn't want Ashton to think there were so many top-notch weirdos around her.
