Chapter 1293: Ashton Heath is Back

Tedd looked worriedly at Joanna Lawrence.

"Mom, Lady Delilah, what are you doing? Is this some kind of court hearing?" A sudden voice made the faces of several people present change.

Tedd turned around and saw a slender figure coming in from outside, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He stepped forward quickly: "Mr. Ashton."

Ashton Heath nodded faintly. After entering the grand hall, he walked straight towards Joanna Lawrence.

When he arrived at Joanna's side, she looked at him in surprise: "Why did you come?"

Ashton wrapped his arm around her, but instead of responding, he raised his head, his gaze coldly onto Lady Octavia and Lady Delilah.

Both Lady Octavia and Lady Delilah were startled.

None of them had expected Ashton to return at such a time.

"Ashton, why are you back? Aren't you at work?" Octavia asked, trying to sound nonchalant after a moment's hesitation, her eyes faltering.
