Kapitel 15: Chapter 15: I Want a Wife

Ashton Heath raised his hand, interrupting her.

"Ms. Joanna, since you've come to find me, you should know that I haven't been practicing medicine for many years."

"I know," Joanna Lawrence nodded, "But I believe Mr. Ashton is a good person and won't stand idly by as someone dies."

"Good person?"

Ashton Heath seemed to have heard something amusing and grinned.

He put down a file in his hand, stood up, and slowly walked towards Joanna Lawrence.

He stopped in front of her.

It was then that Joanna noticed that this man had an excellent figure, very tall, around 188 cm.

Since she was 168 cm, not considered short among women, she barely reached his neck when standing in front of him.

She had to look up to see him.

Too close.

The man's refreshing and pleasant scent rushed into her nostrils. His whole body exuded alluring male hormones. After briefly exchanging glances with him, Joanna's face reddened, and her heart raced.

She couldn't help but take a step back.

Her face flushed, biting her lip, she said, "Mr. Ashton..."

"Ms. Joanna, I'm a businessman," Ashton Heath looked down at her, his thin lips slightly raised, "Let's talk business. Since you want me to help you, what kind of benefits are you prepared to offer me?"

Joanna Lawrence paused.

Benefits?

What could she possibly offer someone who seemed to have it all?

"Mr. Ashton, I don't know what you want..."

Ashton Heath looked at her delicate face and said word by word, with a hint of determination, "If I say I want a wife, are you willing to give me one, Ms. Joanna?"

"What?!" Joanna raised her head in shock.

Ashton Heath's expression remained calm. He said flatly, "There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world. Ms. Joanna, I can agree to your request and help your brother with the surgery. But the condition is that you marry me."

This time, Joanna Lawrence was sure she hadn't misheard.

She was utterly astonished.

No matter what, she didn't expect his request to be for her to marry him.

That was just...absurd.

She couldn't believe it: "Mr. Ashton, are you serious?"

Ashton Heath raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you think I'm joking?"

"Why?"

With his conditions, couldn't he find a wife?

Why would he want a woman he was meeting for the first time to marry him?

Or was it that he had some unspeakable secret?

Her gaze couldn't help but drift downward.

Ashton Heath noticed and guessed what she was thinking. His eyebrows furrowed, and his face darkened a bit.

He reached out with both amusement and annoyance to tug her closer.

"Ah!" Joanna bumped her head into his chest, her head colliding with his warm, solid chest. It felt like hitting a rock, causing her nose to turn red.

Before she could react, her hand was being guided downward by his.

From above, his sexy, deep voice carried a hint of playfulness, "Ms. Joanna doesn't have to worry about being a widow after marriage. You can test me now to see if I'm normal."

Joanna's face turned bright red with embarrassment as she clumsily pushed him away.

"Mr. Ashton, please, show some restraint!"

She never thought this seemingly cold and ascetic man would act like a hooligan towards her.

Ashton Heath looked at her blushing face, and his eyes deepened even further.

It seemed she loved to blush. It was the same last night when she cried and begged him for mercy, her snow-white skin tinted with enticing pink.
