<h4>Chapter 1551: Chapter 1369: This Totally Doesn’t Match Her Style</h4>


    If she really had a full schedule every day, Ashton Heath probably wouldn’t let her continue in the entertainment industry.


    Joanna Lawrence felt that the bonus she received from Shelly Elegance Company was like a windfall from the sky, picked up freely.


    It came as a pleasant surprise.


    Although the money wasn’t a huge amount, it was still an affirmation of her efforts.


    Immediately, she happily sent a message to Aria Rowlett on Twitter: "Aria, I got my first advertisement endorsement fee in my life! They said the product I endorsed sold really well, so they gave me a bonus. I’ll treat you to dinner when I get back!"


    Aria Rowlett quickly replied: "There’s a bonus? Is it a lot of money?"


    Joanna Lawrence: "It’s not a lot of money, but it’s definitely enough to treat you to avish meal. By then, you can bring your partner too."


    Aria Rowlett: "He’s been very busytely. I haven’t seen him for days. I’ll mention it to him next time we meet."


    Joanna Lawrence: "Speaking of which, has Lady Octavia been bothering youtely?"


    Aria Rowlett: "No."


    Joanna Lawrence: "Has she made any other moves?"


    Aria Rowlett: "It doesn’t seem like it... "


    Joanna Lawrence pondered upon Aria’s response.


    It shouldn’t be this way.


    Lady Octavia was strongly against Aria Rowlett and Brandon Heath being together. She had tried to persuade Aria to leave with money and had failed. Was she just giving up?


    Joanna Lawrence felt that Lady Octavia wasn’t someone who would give up easily.


    Doing nothing was entirely out of her usual style.

    Meanwhile.


    Just as Aria Rowlett finished replying to Joanna Lawrence’s message, she received a phone call.


    Her expression changed slightly at the sight of the caller ID, and after a few seconds, she picked up the call.


    Immediately, a sobbing voice on the other end said excitedly, "Alvin, your brother is in trouble, you must save him!"

    Aria Rowlett took the first avable flight back to her hometown.


    It was Friday.


    As per usual, she would stay with Brandon Heath over the weekend.


    Before boarding the ne, she sent a message to Ria telling her not to prepare dinner for her and informing her that she would not being over for the weekend since she was going back to her hometown.


    Just in time.


    As she boarded the ne and switched off her phone, Brandon Heath’s Rolls-Royce slowly drove into the courtyard.


    After getting out of the car,


    Ria, as usual, was waiting outside the building.


    Brandon Heath handed hisptop to Luke and, seeing only Ria, nced at his watch, asking doubtfully, "Ria, Aria didn’te today?"


    Ria sighed, feeling it was a pity.


    Mr. Brandon had been busytely and hadn’t been home for a long time.


    He finally came home today, but Ms. Aria wasn’t there.


    The two had just missed each other.


    No one knew when Mr. Brandon would return next.


    When busy, they might not see each other for half a month or even longer.


    "Ms. Aria said she had something to do in her hometown, so she won’t being this weekend," Ria replied.


    "She went back to her hometown?"


    Brandon Heath took out his phone and dialed Aria Rowlett’s number, only to get an automated female voice stating that her phone was switched off.


    Brandon Heath frowned and hung up, asking Ria, "Did she say what it was about?"


    Ria shook her head, "She didn’t."


    Brandon Heath pursed his lips in silence for a moment, then turned to Luke, "You once looked into her background, do you remember where her hometown is?"


    Luke thought for a moment, then nodded, "I remember. Ms. Aria’s hometown is a small county called Hickory Town."
