Chapter 1459Lucas was motivated. He quickened his pace. Edwin was sitting alone at his desk. He picked up a picture of Joanne and stroked it with his fingers. In the picture, Joanne was alone, leaning on the balcony railing, looking into the distance; the setting sun cast her shadow on the floor. Although she was facing the light, her eyes were gloomy. Edwin regretted his stubbornness in the past. He had hidden Catelyn's daughter in order to find Joanne. But he hadn't considered why Joanne had divorced him. He had hurt her. Although it was a long time ago and it all seemed to be over, when he looked back at it, it still hurt. 'If I had seen this video earlier, maybe we wouldn't have been separated for so many years... 'Maybe she wouldn't have been wounded so badly...'Edwin felt a sudden surge of jealousy towards Jack. Jack had been by Joanne's side for the past four years. He had seen Joanne start her life all over, watched her face change, and...'Yesterday at
Chapter 1460Jack carried Joanne in his arms and headed for his car. It was summer, so he was soon sweating, but he muttered, "Are you so stupid? Can't you see I want you to hold me? I suppose only I’m willing to be your boyfriend."Joanne rolled her eyes at Jack. "Are you really Ada's brother?""Of course!" Jack said with a smug."I suspect you were adopted. You have nothing in common with Ada." Joanne scoffed. And she added, "Stop calling me your girlfriend. You have too many girlfriends.""Since I met you, I've broken up with them all."Joanne was speechless.Jack was constantly changing his girlfriend. She guessed that he was keen on her now because she looked different after her plastic surgery and that he would soon lose interest in her....Edwin pulled over to the side of the road across the hospital. He got out of the car with a breakfast bag which he especially got from a nearby luxurious hotel.He had taken a shower and changed his clothes, but he still smelled fai
Chapter 1461Inside the Atherton family’s villa, Harry was throwing a tantrum after watching a news report on TV. He smashed the remote control on the ground and it broke into pieces.The servants were silent. They were afraid of irritating Harry."Bastard! I set him up with so many rich girls. Why does he want an actress?"Harry was so angry that he called his assistant directly.The assistant came soon. The TV screen in the living room was frozen, showing a picture of Edwin and Joanna.The assistant had been working with Harry for many years. Seeing Harry's stern face, he knew he needed to do something."Sir?""You did a good job with Joanne four years ago," Harry snapped. He had deep wrinkles around the corners of his eyes. With a furious expression on his face, he looked frightening. "You have a new assignment. Do you know this actress?""I've heard of her. Her name is Joanna. She has been very close to Mr. Atherton recently. Her name is similar to Joanne's. Is it possible
Chapter 1462"You did approach Edwin for money!" Harry spat. "You can't fool Edwin. I suggest you be a smart woman. Take the money he gave you and stay away from him before I expose you as a gold digger.""Mr. Atherton, you're wrong. It's your son who's been pestering me. Please tell him to stay away from me." Joanne bluntly rebutted, "I will despise him if he appears in front of me again."Harry was surprised that Joanne was so tough. His face darkened. Before he scolded Joanne again, she saw Jack back in the mirror.Jack came with Joanne's pink suitcase. He recognized Edwin's father at once.Jack didn't know why Joanne hurt her foot. Anyone who knew about the incident was threatened by Benjamin not to tell around.Jack learned that the shooting of Joanne's TV play, Story in Rosch, was suspended by Edwin, so he suspected that Edwin was also responsible for Joanna's injury."Where did this beggar come from? Can't you see this is a luxury car? If you scratch my car, can you affor
Chapter 1463After Joanne waited for a while at the airport exit, a dazzling Ferrari rushed over and stopped next to her and her female assistant Amanda. A charming and sexy woman with lustrous chestnut curly hair got out of the car.Although Jack was flirtatious, Ada was loyal in love.Ada took off her sunglasses and instinctively wanted to give Joanne a big hug, but her face changed when she saw her sitting in a wheelchair. "Damn! Why are you in a wheelchair? Who hurt you? I assume my brother didn't take good care of you because of his little lovers, did he?"Joanne briefly explained that it was due to an accident, and her mind was now occupied with her baby girl's pale face. She urgently wanted to see her."I'm fine. Please tell me now how Tail is doing." "The temperature dropped a few days ago, and your baby girl kicked off her blanket in the middle of the night, so she caught a cold. Please don't get agitated, for I'll take you to see her." Ada helped Joanne into th
Chapter 1464Harry hesitated, "Of course, your happiness is more important. Power and reputation are just icing on the cake.""My happiness?" Edwin sneered, "Why don't you be honest and admit that you value power the most?""I'm your father. Why don't I want you to be happy?" Harry didn't expect that there would be such a deep gap between Edwin and him. He sighed in disappointment."Since you want me to be happy, why do you keep driving away the women I love? You are against both Joanne and Joanna. You have no confidence in me. You think marrying a woman from a powerful family is the only way for me to make our family stronger!"After Joanne left, four years had passed. Edwin had rarely had such a peaceful talk with his father, even though his tone was still sarcastic at the moment.Harry didn't refute Edwin. He admitted bluntly, "Yes, I want you to marry a woman from a powerful family. Look at the Mason family! How fast their family has expanded in the past few years! Their over
Chapter 1465Ada and Joanne walked to the bed gently, put aside the curtain, and a lovely baby angel appeared in front of them. Tail perfectly inherited Joanne's genes, with a round face, long thick eyelashes, and smooth skin. She was a real beauty. However, because of illness, Tail’s face was a little less rosy but sickly. Joanne and Tail had just been apart for less than a month, but Joanne felt that they had been apart for several years. "Mama... Huh..." Tail turned over and uttered a few raving words. Her delicate and small mouth was slightly open, and she looked very cute. Joanne, who was sitting in a wheelchair, reached out to touch Tail's face, "Sleep, sleep, my dear baby." "Don't worry, the fever has left Tail. The doctor said that Tail would be able to go home tomorrow morning after getting another IV," Ada explained. Joanne finally breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "Thank you so much." "You are polite to me again! Tail is so lovely, and every time I see he
Chapter 1466Tail tilted her head and said sweetly, "You're the best mama in the world, besides my mama.""That's what I like to hear." Ada flashed a proud smile, bending down and pointing to the right side of her face, "Then why don't you give me a kiss?"Before Tail could oblige, Joanne reached out and blocked their faces protectively. "Don't let her get poisoned by your cosmetics."Ada laughed heartily, and the three of them left the hospital together. Patrick was waiting for them in his car.Patrick was surprised to see Joanne in a wheelchair, but he quickly recovered and asked a few concerned questions before picking up the little girl with one hand and stuffing her into the back seat of the car. Joanne moved with difficulty. Ada helped her get into the car.Ada sat in the passenger seat and pointed to a box in the back seat. "If you feel cold, blankets are there.""Okay." Joanne took out a blanket and draped it over Tail, making sure the girl wouldn't catch a cold."H
