Chapter 1500Joanne's face was devoid of emotion. "What are you trying to say?""Mr. Atherton's ex-wife is Joanne, and your name is Joanna. So, you know what I mean. He pays attention to you only because he sees you as a replacement for his ex-wife."Joanne sneered, "Allow me to correct you. He pays a lot of attention to me.""Joanna! Have you no shame? Mr. Atherton only sees you as a stand-in!""I'm a stand-in, yet you're jealous of me." Joanne wasn't one to back down, and her tone turned forceful. "Doesn't that mean that even a stand-in is better than you?""You're sharp-tongued, aren't you? No wonder Sharon lost to you."Disdain filled Noah's eyes as she dropped her pretense.She slowly approached Joanne and leaned in slightly. Her lips close to Joanne's ear, she sneered, "But now your opponent is me. Speaking of which, I should thank you for helping me get rid of that idiot."Over the past four years, Noah had used countless methods to drive Sharon away from Edwin.But Sh
Chapter 1501Because of their exceptionally good looks, they caught the attention of many passersby. Edwin‘s casual attitude immediately disappeared. With his face turning cold, he emitted an aura of aloofness that kept people at bay.Even from several meters away, Joanne felt as if the temperature had dropped by several degrees. She was just about to watch the scene as a bystander, but Edwin suddenly looked over in her direction. Before she could even avert her gaze, their eyes met.His cold gaze even made Joanne's breath stop for a few seconds.In the next instant, under the dubious gaze of onlookers, Edwin strode past the pretty girl and walked straight towards Joanne.Joanne suddenly became the center of everyone's attention.She subconsciously wanted to retrieve her mask and put it on, but before she could, Edwin had already reached her.His tall figure cast a faint shadow, completely enveloping her.Edwin stretched out to hold Joanne in his arms and whispered in her ear
Chapter 1502"Yes," Noah immediately added, "I met her in the bathroom just now, and I reminded her to stay away from Edwin, but she ridiculed me and even said proudly that Edwin was willing to spend money for her!" What Harry hated most was those women who deliberately approached Edwin, so his face quickly sank after he heard Noah's words. "Did she really say that?" "How dare I lie to you?" Noah pretended to say with certainty, "Not only that, but also she showed off to me that she didn't like Edwin and that it was Edwin who haunted her!" Harry had heard such words from Joanne and Jack, and now his face was filled with coldness. "She is so presumptuous!" "Mr. Atherton, calm down. Don't get so mad because of such a bitch..." Noah comforted softly, "I believe that Edwin is just deceived by Joanna temporarily. He will not really fall in love with her." "It will go worse if he falls in love with her," Harry sneered and said viciously, "Joanna will join the crew of Story in Rosch in
Chapter 1503"I have no choice." Joanne was so sad and angry. She urged Ada to take Tail back to Mourpa.Tail pouted, aggrieved. "Mama, do you not like me anymore?""Yes...""Do you find me annoying?""Of course not...""Then why are you driving me away? Humph! I'm going to stay and protect you," Tail said in a tender but determined voice.Joanne was vexed, and she could only convince herself to accept this fact.When she came out of the fitting room gloomily, Edwin could see something was wrong with her at a glance. He found that she had not changed her clothes yet. And the dress she brought into the fitting room disappeared."Didn't you say you liked that dress?"Joanne panicked and put her phone back into her pocket, smiling, "I found that I've gained weight and have some love handles. That dress is tight. I don't look good in it, so I changed back into my own clothes."The clerks' mouths twitched.They thought, 'What? She has a very good figure!'It was a lame excuse.
Chapter 1504Edwin heard a noise and turned his head.Joanne slept "deeply". Even though her head bumped into the window, she only frowned slightly.It seemed that she was really exhausted."Drive a little slower," Edwin instructed the driver.The driver saw Edwin staring unblinkingly at Joanne in the rearview mirror. He had never seen Edwin so tender."Yes, Master Edwin."The temperature in the car was a little low, so Edwin took off his suit jacket, gently draped it over Joanne, and took her into his arms.Joanne's delicate eyelashes fluttered as she fell onto his chest.The tip of her nose rubbed against Edwin's firm chest and slid down. Finally, she lay down on his lap.Edwin's eyes swept over her slightly trembling eyelashes. He reached out and brushed her bangs. His long fingertips stopped at her fair cheeks as he said in a low voice with expectations, "I waited four years for you. Joanne, you can't escape."In the silent car, his murmurs were clear.Not only did Joan
Chapter 1505Tail listened to the whole introduction sentence by sentence and got a detailed understanding of Edwin.When Tail was "sued" by Edwin, her mom and Patrick protected her so well that she didn't have a chance to investigate Edwin. Now Tail learned that he was the president of a big company.Ada and Patrick thought Tail was young, so they didn't tell her anything.But if she continued to be ignorant, her mom would be taken away.Tail's eyes rolled mischievously.She opened WhatsApp and sent Miles a voice message."Miles, I'm in Sapphire City. When are we meeting?"...Jack was waiting impatiently at East Imperial.Suddenly, he heard a harsh noise from upstairs as if someone was moving furniture or something.Jack was bored anyway, so he took out a big bag of fruit and ran to the top floor.It was said that the residents of East Imperial were very wealthy.Now that Jack wanted to chase Joanne, he had to get on good terms with the neighbors.The door to the pentho
Chapter 1506Edwin came out of the master bedroom and heard a noise in the living room.Jadyn was stopping Jack and shooing him out the door."Sir, you can't go in. This is a private residence. Don't blame us for being rude if you continue to barge in..."The chef was cooking, and there was a fragrance of food and jasmine flowers in the air.The living room was fully furnished, and the wall was hung with a beautiful painting symbolizing the love of a good couple. It was just like a cozy home."Edwin, come out!" Jack's face was livid as he angrily yelled at the master bedroom.He thought, 'How can Jo be so close to Edwin after only a few days?'Jadyn was afraid of waking up Joanne. She hurriedly ordered the other servants with an ugly expression."Quick, cover his mouth and drag him out..."Several servants swarmed over toward Jack.Jack's handsome face looked disdainful.He had been wanting a chance to bring Edwin down a peg, so he planned to take advantage of the chaos and
Chapter 1507Ada happened to be showing Tail around the night market.Bubsville had a bustling night market.Jack drove a luxurious supercar and couldn't squeeze into the entrance.Forced to park in the parking lot across the street, Jack had no choice but to walk into the crowd.The smells of sweat, cheap perfume, and all kinds of snacks were mingled.Jack disliked the crowded atmosphere. He found Ada and Tail at a small stall with great difficulty.Ada was bargaining with the stall owner, sputtering.Tail's small body half crouched on the ground, her little fair hands holding a shiny ornament as she examined it.She wore a high ponytail, looking easy to fool from behind...Ada was halfway through her bargaining when she suddenly felt a chill down her spine.She turned her head and met a pair of angry eyes.Jack's face was full of displeasure. "Ada! How dare you sneak away from Mourpa?"Hearing the long-lost voice, Ada gave a bright smile. As if she had found a sucker, sh
