Chapter 191

Dr. Linnard glanced at the surly expression on Ashton’s face before turning back to me and nodding. Not sure what else to say, she agreed, “Sure!”

I called the waiter over and had him wrap up the desserts for me.

Feeling annoyed at how Ashton was looming over me, I stood up and told Dr. Linnard, “I’ll wait for you downstairs.”

Ashton ignored her as he headed in my direction. Coming to a stop before me, he practically ordered, “C’mon, get in the car!

“You can leave first if you’re busy. I’ll wait for Dr. Linnard!” Then, I shot Rebecca a pointed look and smiled thinly. “Besides, it looks like the two of you still haven’t finished talking yet. So please, do continue!
