My Secret Billionaire Husband Chapter 3001 - 2520: The Person That Night Was Him

"Mm." Ashton Heath nodded.

"But, how come I don’t remember?" Joanna Lawrence’s eyebrows furrowed again, as she tried to recall when she had met Ashton Heath in a hotel, but she couldn’t remember.

Maybe he had seen her in some hotel before.

But she didn’t know about it?

Ashton Heath was silent for a few seconds: "Joanna, do you remember that night when you spent the night in a hotel with a stranger?"

When he mentioned this incident, Joanna’s face changed instantly.

She pushed him away, sat up, her face pale for a moment, then after a few seconds, as if realizing something, her eyes widened in shock: "That night... the man was you?!"

"Yes." Ashton Heath met her astonished gaze, hesitated for a moment, and nodded, "Joanna, that was the first time we met."

"That night was an accident. You were drunk, and they brought you to my room, having mistaken you for someone else."

"At that time, you..." Ashton Heath chose his words carefully, "you were not fully conscious and very aggressive. My self-control was not great at that time, so..."

Joanna was too shocked to say a word.

What happened that night had always weighed heavily on her heart.

She thought that she had lost her virginity to a stranger.

Even though Ashton Heath had said that he didn’t mind the incident and still treated her well, Joanna couldn’t help but worry about it herself.

That night was a horrible memory for her.

Whenever she thought of it, her mood would turn terrible.

Later on, she tried not to think about it as much as possible.

She buried every detail of that night deep in her heart.

She had even hated the man who took her virginity at one point.

But that man turned out to be Ashton Heath?!

So she didn’t lose her virginity to another man.

The man who had been with her all along was Ashton Heath.

"Joanna, are you angry?" Ashton Heath saw that she wasn’t speaking and frowned, lightly placing his hand on her shoulder, his deep, dark eyes staring at her intently. "I should have told you earlier. I was too hesitated because of my concern, and that’s why it took so long."

"Baby, I’m sorry."

Ashton Heath apologized sincerely: "I shouldn’t have hidden this from you. I was afraid that you would hate me and distance yourself from me because of it, so I kept it from you for so long. If you really do hate me because of this, I deserve it."

Even now, when he decided to tell her, he chose to do so only after their relationship had stabilized.

Joanna still didn’t say a word, her face showing no emotions.

The more she stayed silent, the more unsure Ashton Heath felt.

The man sighed softly: "You really do hate me, don’t you?"

Should he have not said anything?

If he hadn’t told her, she would never have known.

"No." Joanna looked into his somewhat dimmed deep black eyes and finally spoke after a few minutes of silence. "I don’t hate you. I’m just a little angry that you didn’t tell me sooner."

If he had told her earlier, she wouldn’t have dwelled on the incident so much.

There had been several times when she had dreamt about that night.

When she woke up the next day, facing him, she always felt a strong sense of guilt.

Feeling like she had wronged him.

"I’m sorry, baby. I was wrong." The man’s apology was sincere, as he pulled her into his arms, kissed her forehead, and spoke in a deep, low voice. "Give me a chance to make it right. I won’t keep anything from you ever again."

"It was my cowardice, my fear of losing you. I was wrong. Please forgive me."
