Chapter 1446

Just as Edwin was about to count to three, her brain reacted faster than her body. Joanne blurted out, "Okay! You can stay as long as you give me back my phone!"

Who exactly was calling that made this calm woman panic like this?

A ray of light flashed across Edwin's eyes as he slowly lowered his hand.

Joanna's eyes were glued to the phone.

She was about to get it back when Edwin's thumb fell on the Answer button.

"What are you doing? Don't answer it."

"Mmm."

Joanne's exclamation and a soft sigh in the receiver instantly overlapped.

Edwin had broken his promise!

He turned his palm in a circle and brought the phone back to his ear.

He wanted to see who it was that made Joanna so nervous.

Except for Patrick or Jack...

How many others was she hiding?

Joanne had the urge to jump out of bed to grab the phone, but the injury to her right foot held her down. She could only hold her breath, afraid that Tail would hear her voice and call her mom. She prayed that the p

    Chapter 1447Joanne stifled any sound that might reach the girl's ears, biting her lower lip fiercely. Her eyes bore into Edwin like daggers, accusing him of his shamelessness.Edwin, not wanting to see her tears or vulnerability, decided to drop the matter of the girl's identity. Swiftly, he scooped Joanne up and placed her back on the bed."Alright, alright, I won't fight you for the phone."Meanwhile, far away in Mourpa, Tail pouted for getting no response from Edwin."Are you still there?""Did you lie to me?""Hmph!""Uncle Patrick... Uncle Patrick."The sound of the little girl's footsteps echoed, followed by the creak of a door opening.It seemed she was off to find Patrick.Soon after, Patrick's voice, tinged with a hint of laziness, came through the receiver. "Baby, what's the matter?""There's a weird man who keeps asking who I am. It's so strange. Am I being tricked?" Tail cooed, handing the phone to Patrick.Cradling Tail in the crook of his arm, Patrick chuckl

    Chapter 1448To avoid trouble, Joanne casually chatted with Patrick for a while and then hung up the phone.She broke into a cold sweat unknowingly.Joanne thought, 'I must protect my deary.'She breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly, she felt a cold gaze on her. Joanne looked over and saw Edwin's sharp, searching eyes.He asked doubtfully, "Who is the 'deary' on your phone, Patrick or that little girl?"Joanne's heart lurched. She raised her eyebrows slowly. "Does it matter to you?""Of course." Edwin's eyes narrowed slightly. He leaned down and said word for word, "Patrick is already Ms. Brown's fiancé. Based on your messy relationship with Jack, this deary cannot be him, so it could only be that little girl. How is she related to you? Why do you call her so intimately?"Sure enough, Edwin didn't believe Patrick's words. Joanne got nervous."Patrick has said she is his daughter. Why can't I call her intimately? I am naturally fond of children. They are like angels. I can call

Then she saw the latest entertainment news on Twitter, the most eye-catching of which was about Edwin. The misleading headline said that he had gone to a hospital late at night with his new love who might be pregnant.Joanne was already unable to sleep. When she saw the news, she was wide awake.She clicked on the news and saw that it was indeed about her and Edwin.Someone posted a picture of Edwin hugging her in th

    Chapter 1450Late at night, Edwin was at Riverdale Entertainment Club.Dozens of wine bottles were lying on the table.Next to him were a few of his close friends, including Benjamin.After having children, Cedrick rarely came to the club. He occasionally stayed here for a short time, saying that Puffy didn't like the smells of alcohol and tobacco. They were jealous and felt Cedrick was crazy.Benjamin looked at Edwin drinking constantly. Edwin seemed to want to get drunk, but his eyes were sober."Stop drinking. Your head is broken, but you haven't even treated your injury, and you've drunk so much. Do you want to die?"Edwin was wearing a loose shirt with a few buttons undone."Benjamin, do you think I'm silly?"Benjamin was speechless."I should have been with another woman. Why did I choose to be hurt by that heartless woman twice?"Benjamin, who was not very clear about the things between Edwin and Joanna, loved money the most."How can women be compared with money? Si

    Chapter 1451Later, Joanne's medical records stating that she couldn't get pregnant were revealed. She deceived everyone.Many times Edwin wanted to investigate it to deny Joanne's deception. Catelyn couldn't possibly be best friends with a scheming woman, but Edwin gave up.Maybe the medical records would be found fake, yet what if it was real?Every time Edwin played the video of Joanne and Patrick boarding the plane to a foreign country and snuggling up to each other, he had the urge to destroy her.Edwin thought, 'She had idolized Patrick for years. She and I were just married for a few months. How could I compete with him?'Edwin smiled wryly, wondering if he was too stubborn or if she was too cruel.Suddenly, his face turned sullen again, and he took a sip of wine.Edwin was not willing to give up. Even though Joanne adored Patrick, Patrick was already Ada's fiancé, and there was only Jack, a philander, left by her side."Tsk, everyone, look at the latest news about that

    Chapter 1452Half an hour later, the private room was a mess, with broken glass and bottles scattered all over the floor.The young man was beaten up and sent to the hospital while Benjamin stayed to take care of the aftermath."Have you vented your anger? If so, go wash your face to sober up."Benjamin's gaze fell on Edwin's handsome face, feeling frustrated."The photos of you and Joanne have just been exposed. Maybe there are paparazzi at the door right now. Don't embarrass yourself."Edwin was distracted. "I've already made a fool of myself.""Anyway, you can't be like this," Benjamin said with dissatisfaction.Edwin was lying on the sofa without saying a word. Feeling sorry for Edwin, Benjamin sighed, asked the waiter to change a private room for Edwin, and told the staff not to spread what had happened today.Benjamin turned his head and saw Edwin fiddle with his cell phone with an unreadable expression.Edwin's phone buzzed.A familiar notification voice sounded as if

When she heard that her agent reported it to her, she smiled complacently."It's great that Mr. Atherton denied his relationship with Joanna. It proves that I'm his only lover."But the agent shouted anxiously, "The key is that Mr. Atherton didn't deny his relationship with Joanna but denied his relationship with you!"Suddenly, the spoon in Sharon's hand fell on the plate.She tightly held her phone in disbelief and exclaimed in surprise, "What did you say?""You haven't checked Twitter yet, right? At 5 a.m., Mr. Atherton suddenly posted on his Twitter account that had been lying idle for three years. He declared that he had been single all the time, hadn't married you and had no relationship with you!"Sharon's expression changed immediately. She didn't have the time to have breakfast anymore but

However, it was just casually made, not worth that much. This vendor was clearly trying to rip them off."As long as you like it, it has value."Cedrick raised his chin. Eason immediately handed over 10 hundred-dollar bills.The vendor gazed at the dollar bills with glowing eyes, took them with trembling hands, and chose a perfect charm for Catelyn and Cedrick.Cedrick took the charm and connected Catelyn's hand and his with it.His long, slender fingers moved.

Although your love makes me sick, I have kindly prepared a gift for you."Evelyn looked at him in fear and confusion when she saw a familiar figure walk in through the door.The visitor was just as tall, straight, and handsome as Cedrick. It was amazing to see any difference in their appearance."It's you? You're Ralph?" exclaimed Evelyn, her stomach lurching.For so many nights, she had sex with Ralph, the imposter. No wonder the baby she gave birth to was so disgusting too."Little bitch, long time no see. I missed you so much."Ralph grinned and walked toward Evelyn with lustful eyes."Go away! Go away!"Evelyn frantically waved her pillow, trying to repel Ralph, but these attacks were like a kitten's playing in Ralph's eyes.Ralph smiled evilly, dragged Evelyn down from the hospi

My daughter is your child! And could only be your child!"Cedrick sneered, his deep eyes icy, "Think what you want, as long as you're happy."His voice was deep, pleasant, and charming, but what he said sent chills down Evelyn's spine.Evelyn looked at him incredulously. The smile on Cedrick's lips became even more fascinating. "There's something I forgot to mention. Are you sure the person you married is me? My wife is Catelyn from the beginning."Previous images flashed through Evelyn's mind. She thought of Cedrick's different attitudes. His passion, his impatience... Scene by scene, frame by frame, it was like a horrible movie, making her shiver."Cedrick, you indeed lied to me..."Evelyn stared at Cedrick with hatred, her eyes paranoid and mad."Even if my child is not yours and I didn't marry

"Eason."Eason respectfully carried the baby over to the hospital bed. "Mrs. Mason, please."Evelyn took the child in surprise and lifted the swaddling blanket on the baby.Although it was a girl, Evelyn gave birth to her. Naturally, Evelyn loved her.Yet the moment she saw the baby's face, Evelyn's face suddenly changed, and she quickly threw the baby away, leaning down and vomiting."No, it's not my baby! It's not my baby!"'How can she possibly be my child?' The baby was deformed. Her little face was bruised. Her eyes, nose, and mouth were all tightly grown together. She looked extraordinarily horrible..."Mrs. Mason, this is your baby!"Eason nimbly caught the baby that almost fell to the floor and brought it back to Evelyn."Take her a

Now the news was all about her and Cedrick being in love.Yet only she knew that Cedrick always left soon after he came, never staying longer than fifteen minutes.'Is it really because he's too busy working?'When she thought of Summer and Braylon, who came in and out together affectionately, a glint of jealousy flashed in Evelyn's eyes.If only Cedrick could always stay by her side as Braylon did to Summer.Soon, it was Evelyn's due date."Cedrick, I'm so scared..."Evelyn grabbed Cedrick's sleeve, sweating in pain.

The condescension she had when she first arrived disappeared.'Braylon is no ordinary man. What if he really wants to help Summer get back at me?'Evelyn subconsciously rubbed her belly. She mustn't let anything happen to her child. She called the nurse and said coldly, "Ask the doctor to come here! I suspect someone has poisoned me."The nurse gave her a frightened look and murmured, "Mrs. Mason, how is this possible?""I don't care! Go get the doctor to check everything in the room. I will not allow anyone to hurt my child!" Evelyn yelled in a stern voice as her eyes went crazy.The nurse called the doctor in fear, and the doctor came, checked everything, and said resignedly, "Mrs. Mason, we assure you that everything here is qualified and absolutely free of any harmful substances. You can relax."Eve

Yet he smiled, "Of course, Mrs. Mason. If there's nothing else, I'll go back now."Evelyn smiled and nodded, "Go ahead. There are so many nurses here. They can take care of me."Cedrick had arranged the best labor and delivery room for Evelyn. Three nurses worked 24-hour shifts, so she would have someone to serve her at any time.Evelyn walked into the glass corridor, looking out at the sunshine and green grass. Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure."Who's that woman on the bench?"Evelyn's eyes went cold as she frowned and asked the young nurse next to her.The young nurse came over and asked with a puzzled look, "Mrs. Mason, which one do you mean?" "The old woman on the bench."A sneer appeared on Evelyn's lips, and her tone was acerbic.The nurse gave Evelyn a surprised look. "This lady is Mrs. Hensley, who live

    Chapter 1935Cedrick was silent for a moment, counting the time. Indeed, Evelyn's due date was approaching.The smile on his mouth grew colder as he thought about what was going to happen."I'll have Eason pick you up.""I know you're busy. It's okay to have Eason pick me up, but I want to see you as soon as I get back."Evelyn smiled sweetly, not bothering with these details.As long as Cedrick cared about her, it was the same whoever came to pick her up.Evelyn touched her round belly, and her expectant face gradually became worried.'It's said that a sharp belly predicts a son and that a round belly predicts a daughter. My belly is so round. Will I have a daughter?'Meanwhile, Cedrick hung up the phone, casually threw it to the bedside, lay back down, and pulled the soft Catelyn into his arms.Half asleep, Catelyn heard Evelyn speaking arrogantly on the phone and slumped against Cedrick's chest."Evelyn's coming back?"Cedrick nodded slightly, a little impatient.
