What's the difference even if he asks or not?
Ashton Heath seemed to have thought of these two things as well, and there was a moment of uneasiness on his face. He coughed lightly, covering his mouth, "That Maddox guy, indeed, has malicious intentions. It's right for you to stay away from him."
"Alright, I think I understand what you mean. From now on, I'll gradually change, okay? Joanna, I know there are many things about me that aren't very likable. If you don't like them, I'll change, but just give me some time."
"I'll change, any part you don't like, I'll change them all."
At his core, Ashton Heath is a man with particularly strong possessiveness and controlling desires.
In front of Joanna, he has already been quite restrained.
If he reveals his true side to her, he might scare her away.
Just the pressure shown now has already made her feel tired.
How could he dare to let her know that he has actually restrained himself a lot already?
