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
Chapter 1943"Just 999 dollars! It will bring you a long, happy life together."The vendor stared at Catelyn with eager eyes, frantically trying to sell his products.Cedrick looked down at Catelyn tenderly and asked, "Do you like it?"Catelyn picked up a charm to take a look, smiling, "It's not bad, but is it too expensive?"The charm was a good symbol. 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. Even the slightest movement was very pleasant. Coupled with the romantic atmosphere, it was so beautiful.Joanne got excited as she watched them, clamoring, "I want o
Chapter 1942"Oh my, Evelyn made the shop assistant kneel to put her shoes on? That was too much! Does she think she's a noble princess?""Check out this video. Evelyn framed Mrs. Mason at the mall with a big belly.""Even a beast won't harm its children. Evelyn risked her child's life! How can she be so cruel?""Bah! Mr. Mason is handsome and rich. Evelyn actually cheated on him!""Her lover is too ugly. Evelyn has terrible taste.""Ahhh, Evelyn moaned so lewdly in the video. How can this man compare to Mr. Mason? I want to vomit..."As people online questioned and criticized Evelyn, her reputation completely collapsed, and she quickly became notorious.Cedrick became the victim of this incident.Cedrick sat in the car, looking at the responses on the Internet. He nodded and said, "You did a good job."To create the illusion that Evelyn cheated on Cedrick, Eason used AI technology to change Ralph's face into a stranger's in the videos of Evelyn and him having sex. "Thank
Chapter 1941Evelyn's voice paused, and her eyes were vicious and angry as she questioned hysterically, "But I did everything out of love for you!"Cedrick wanted to laugh. "Thank you, Ms. Swan. 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
Chapter 1940A few seconds later, she tore up the piece of paper regardless and looked at Cedrick with crazy eyes, "I'm your wife! It's Mrs. Mason in name only! All of this is a lie. 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
Chapter 1939"I'm satisfied," Cedrick smiled dangerously, his eyes emotional.It was a smile that made Evelyn feel extremely alarmed."Then ... show me the baby."Cedrick looked at Evelyn condescendingly, his deep eyes full of coldness. "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
Chapter 1938"Now, all of you, stop talking nonsense and do your job. We'll have an easy time when she has given birth."The doctor reprimanded and turned to go back to his office.Inside the room, Evelyn scrolled through the videos and news with a bitter smile.These days after she came back, Cedrick visited her every day and was photographed by many reporters and media. 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. "I can't take it anymore. I want a C-section with general anesthesia..."With a cold ligh
Chapter 1937The nurse rushed to support Evelyn.Evelyn looked flustered and headed back to the ward."Has anyone touched my things?"Evelyn came back like a different person. 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
Chapter 1936Evelyn nodded with satisfaction and asked with a smile, "Did Cedrick arrange this for me?"Eason thought to himself, 'Mr. Mason has no time for her.' 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. "She's
