As soon as the maid’s words fell, a tall, slender, dark figure strode into the hall. The maids standing in the hall sneaked a look at the man as he passed by them. Their eyes fell on his overly handsome and cold face, and their hearts began to thump wildly as if they were hiding a little rabbit in their chests.

Mr. Ashton is really good-looking.

This face makes your heart flutter every time you see it.

They had secretly discussed before what kind of woman could match a perfect man like Mr. Ashton.

Later, they heard that Mr. Ashton liked Ms. Rebecca from the Kelloway family.

Then they thought that the future Ms. Joanna would be Ms. Rebecca from the Kelloway family.

After all, both in terms of family background and personal conditions, Ms. Rebecca and Mr. Ashton were a good match.

But who would have thought that Ms. Rebecca actually didn’t like Mr. Ashton but liked Young Master Ashton from the Heath family instead.

So, Mr. Ashton has been in unrequited love for many years.

Despite Lady Parker introducing many well-bred ladies from noble families with excellent conditions, Mr. Ashton didn’t take a fancy to any of them.

At that time, they all thought that Mr. Ashton was deeply devoted.

As a second-generation rich of a top wealthy family, most scions of wealthy families were playboys who fooled around with women everywhere. But their family’s Mr. Ashton was devoted to a woman for so many years, which was rare and commendable among those playboys.

They all thought that Mr. Ashton was deeply in love with Ms. Rebecca. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Wouldn’t marry anyone else but her.

But later on...

A female actress from the entertainment industry suddenly appeared, and Mr. Ashton was involved in several scandals with her.

Then rumors began to circulate that Mr. Parker had fallen for the actress and no longer liked Ms. Rebecca.

It was actually a good thing.

No matter the identity of the woman Mr. Ashton liked, as long as he was no longer obsessed with Ms. Rebecca, his prospects for marriage would improve and he wouldn’t have to refuse marriage talks because of her.

But who could have imagined that the actress was already married to Young Master Ashton from the Heath family, Mr. Ashton’s longtime friend!

This infuriated Lady Parker.

How could Mr. Ashton fall for a married woman?

What would people say if word got out!

Over this matter, Lady Parker and Mr. Ashton had a big quarrel, and the two were at odds for a while. It took a long time for Mr. Ashton to return to the Parker family residence.

Not long ago, the relationship between Aria and her kid slightly improved.

Mr. Ashton was willing to come home now.

It looked like the complete reconciliation between mother and son was imminent.

But...

At this critical moment, Mr. Ashton got involved in another scandal with the actress.

He was caught by reporters specifically going to the city where the actress was, and he had a secret meeting with her at the Luxe Lounge.

It was only when Lady Parker’s best friend called her to confirm the rumors that she learned about it.

Upon hearing about this, Lady Parker was so angry that her face turned green, and she immediately called Mr. Ashton back.

Now, both mother and son had a not-so-pleasant look on their faces, and they hoped they wouldn’t argue again and ruin the relationship they had barely mended.

"Mr. Ashton, hello." Although the maids were grumbling in their hearts, they greeted Frank Parker respectfully with their faces.

Frank Parker walked past them with a cold and handsome face, showing no expression.

When he reached Lady Parker, he stopped.

"Mom, what’s the matter that you urgently called me back for?"
