Free Web NovelChapter 2978: Chapter 2497: The Cat Can’t Dominate My Wife
But only a day after she returned to her parents’ home, Ashton Heath became unable to enjoy his meals or sleep well. He moaned about his misery to her over Twitter.
Ashton Heath: Baby, can I come over to see you today? I didn’t sleep well again last night because you weren’t around, I really want to see you now.
Joanna Lawrence, while playing with Orange in the garden, saw Ashton Heath’s message. She casually snapped a photo of Orange, sprawled on his back requesting belly rubs and sent it to him.
She sent the photo over: Orange has gotten chubbier. His face has rounded out and he is so adorable with his plumpness.
Ashton Heath responded with a series of ellipsis marks.
After a few seconds, he sent another message: Baby, is there room in your eyes for anything but this fat cat?
Joanna Lawrence: Of course not. I just found it adorable and wanted to share it with you.
Ashton Heath: Your husband is even cuter, but I’ve never seen you share anything about him with anyone.
Joanna Lawrence: ...
She could sense the man’s grievances.
Before he used to be jealous of people, now he is jealous of a cat too?
Joanna Lawrence, smiled, replying: Ashton Heath, you’re an adult, are you seriously jealous of a cat?
Ashton Heath: No cat gets to monopolise my wife. Joanna, I really miss you, I can’t wait until the wedding to see you again, I want to see you now.
When the man clings to her, Joanna Lawrence sometimes finds it overwhelming.
She felt that she and Ashton Heath must have switched roles.
Generally in relationships, it’s the woman who tends to be clingier.
But in the case of her and Ashton, it turns out he’s the one initiating everything, leaving her as passive.
Ashton Heath’s initiative is focused solely on her.
When it comes to others, he’s utterly standoffish.
Her phone rang, it was Ashton Heath calling her directly.
The moment she answered, the man said: "I’ll be over tonight, don’t sleep too early."
"That’s not very appropriate," Joanna Lawrence, stifling a laugh, said intentionally.
"What’s wrong with it? I’ll go over a bit later, just don’t let our parents know."
"But I think since the custom exists, it’d be better to observe it," Joanna Lawrence was not really concerned about the so-called customs. She just suddenly felt mischievous and wanted to tease him.
"Who cares about the customs we humans created. Rules are dead, but people are alive. Regardless of the conventions, I need to see you tonight," as expected, Ashton Heath got a bit anxious with her teasing.
"Whether you come out tonight or not, I’ll be waiting for you. If you don’t come out all night, I’ll wait all night."
Joanna Lawrence: "..."
"If you can bear to let your husband wait all night outside, you can ignore me, pretend I don’t exist."
Joanna Lawrence: "..."

When night fell.
After Joanna Lawrence had taken a bath and came out of the bathroom, Madam White handed her her phone. "Your phone was ringing just now. Someone seems to have messaged you."
Joanna Lawrence could already guess who the message was from.
She took the phone, unlocked it, clicked into Twitter, and saw Ashton Heath had sent her several messages.
Ashton Heath: I’m here.
Ashton Heath: My car is parked under a tree to the right of the main gate.
Ashton Heath: Baby, I’m waiting for you to come out.
Joanna Lawrence checked the last message’s sent time, which was half an hour ago.
At that time, she was still in the bathroom taking a bath.
After reading the messages, Joanna Lawrence walked over to the window with her phone in hand.
The night was dim, but she quickly spotted Ashton Heath’s car parked under the tree.
