She furrowed her brows, not wanting to pay attention. However, the person behind her quickly caught up to her, taking three steps at once. Just as she walked out of the Benington family's entrance, David Benington reached her.
He stood in front of her.
"Joanna, let's talk."
Joanna Lawrence raised her head, looking at him coldly: "Get out of the way."
David didn't move, looking down at the girl standing in front of him. He said with difficulty, "Joanna, could we talk? I have something to say to you."
Joanna's gaze filled with disgust, and she replied coldly, "I have nothing to say to you."
Her coldness and the disgust in her eyes hurt David.
Now, Joanna seemed like a porcupine covered with prickles.
Whenever she saw him, her prickles would stand on end.
She refused to communicate with him.
Her indifference to him was more distant than to strangers.
This made David uncomfortable and hard to accept.
He began to miss the soft and cute girl from before.
