Chapter 1528Edwin stifled a grunt and quickly stood up, sucking in cool air discreetly.The porridge, fresh out of the oven, had been delivered here at top speed.Immediately, his chest was scalded red.Joanne didn't expect Edwin to get burned. A trace of concern flashed in her eyes before she spoke in a hard voice. "As I said, I don't want to eat. Tail isn't your daughter, so you don't have to worry about her. But I do. If you are hungry, you can go ahead and eat."The veins popped on Edwin's forehead. "I didn't know she was so weak."Joanne was speechless."That's not the excuse you can lock a three-year-old child up in a dark room. Would you do that to your daughter?"Edwin's eyes were filled with deep frustration. He had done that in a fit of pique.His eyes stared at Joanne unblinkingly."What can I do to make you satisfied?"Joanne said with a poker face, "You can't, not until Tail wakes up.""You know that's not what I meant." He was trying to get her to accept his
Chapter 1529'I'm sorry for making you so distraught.'And sorry for hurting your daughter...'Even though Edwin really hated the fact that Joanne had a daughter with Patrick, he was simultaneously depressed and chagrined.Why couldn't Tail be his daughter?Edwin's voice was low.A breeze blew in through the window and drowned out his voice....Joanne woke up with the urge to pee.She found herself lying in a soft bed.It was dark around her. Through the gap in the curtains, Joanne could vaguely see the flashing colorful lights on the skyscrapers outside the window.Joanne thought, 'Why was I asleep? Tail is having an IV. Is there anyone accompanying her?'Joanne panicked, lifted the blanket, and strode toward Tail's room.In the silent corridor outside the VIP ward on the top floor, even a pin drop could be heard.As Joanne got close to Tail's room, she heard a deep, charming voice reading the story The Little Prince..."... I will live on one of the stars, smiling, an
Chapter 1530"I know you're afraid that I'll mistreat her, but I really didn't mean to do that today. I promise you that I won't do it again in the future, and you need to plan for her future."Joanne was stunned.'Future?'Tail was weak. It was lucky for her to live. It was not that Joanne didn't think about Tail's future. She just didn't dare to have any hope.Joanne subconsciously pinched Edwin's hand.Her fingernails sank into his flesh...The back of Edwin's hand soon bled, but he only embraced her harder. Sweat dripped down his forehead onto her neck."The environment of the set is not good. Moreover, Tail is already three and a half years old. She can go to kindergarten, and if you don't let her get an education, she won't even know how to read. Puffy could read when she was two. Now she can recite many famous poems.Joanne didn't want to talk to him about Tail's education. His actions today had completely disappointed her.He didn't deserve to be Tail's father."Edwi
Chapter 1531As if to prove she was not lying, Joanne locked eyes with Edwin and said disgustedly, "The smell from your scald makes me feel sick."Edwin's elegance, which had been maintained for the whole night, instantly disappeared.His face darkened as he said through clenched teeth, "Say that again."Seeing his sullen face, Joanne put a finger on her lips and chided with a regretful look, "Keep your voice down. Don't disturb Tail."She pushed Edwin out of the ward. "Go to the doctor. I will stay here."Edwin clasped her wrist, thinking, 'Does she really not care about me at all?'"Go with me.""No...""I'll have a nurse watch Tail. Don't forget who got me hurt like this."Edwin guessed her answer and quickly cut her off. He dragged Joanne away.Inside the doctor's office.The doctor looked in shock at Edwin's bloodied chest and abdomen.He thought, 'I gave Mr. Atherton the ointment for the burns. Why does it not work? His wounds are even getting worse.'The doctor put
Chapter 1532Edwin looked pale, and he was putting on a show. With that bloody chest, he seemed really weak.Joanne decided to ignore him.No matter how much it hurt, Edwin asked for it.Even if he was covered in wounds, Tail suffered much more than him...However, despite this thought, Joanne's hands naturally spread the hospital gown, raised the right sleeve, and then grabbed Edwin's arm to put it in.Edwin smiled slightly with smugness when she wasn't looking.When his eyes inadvertently glanced at the hickeys on her neck, his pupils suddenly shrank.He made love to her so fiercely that her body was covered with the hickeys. When Joanne came to the hospital, she had to wear a silk scarf and pull her collar up.As Joanne put his other arm into the sleeve, Edwin turned his head. His thin, cool lips just brushed past her delicate earlobe.Edwin thought, 'Damn, she's so seductive.'Yet Joanne didn't even notice the small change in his emotions."Okay, I'll do it myself." Edw
Chapter 1533Noah hid her strong disgust and disdain and patted Sharon's hand tenderly."You are the one to solve the matter. I know your relationship with Mr. Atherton, and now your position has been taken away. That's why everyone no longer supports you. If you can be with Mr. Atherton again..."After Noah's incitement, Sharon began to keep a close eye on Edwin's schedule.After learning that he was at a private hospital, the next day, she changed into a revealing long slip dress and a trench coat and went to that hospital.She asked for Edwin's ward number in advance."My makeup is not smeared, right? Do I look good enough?" Sharon asked her assistant in a low voice.The assistant said flatteringly, "Mr. Atherton will be charmed by you."Sharon was satisfied. She smiled, pushed open the door of the ward, and said coquettishly, "Mr. Atherton, I haven't seen you for a long time. You are so bad. You didn't even ask me out... Joanna? How could it be you?"The person Sharon saw
Chapter 1534Sharon's assistant sobbed and was stuck for words. She bit her lip, felt wronged, and shed tears.Sharon put her hands on her hips and was about to continue to humiliate Joanne and Tail. However, Joanne picked up the dustbin from the ground and inverted it on Sharon's head before Sharon said something.Originally, Joanne would like to keep graceful in front of Tail, but Sharon had gone too far. Joanne couldn't bear it anymore."Watch your mouth! I would like to treat you to rubbish!"Sharon's head was covered by the dustbin. She shouted, "Ah…"The rubbish bag had been changed in the morning. There were just some peels, waste paper, and lunch boxes inside, and there were no disgusting things. However, because of the psychological effect, Sharon felt as if she smelled something stinking. She pulled down the dustbin hard and screamed crazily…"Joanna, how dare you throw rubbish on my head?" Sharon was covered with rubbish and was gooseflesh all over.Joanne calmly sto
Chapter 1535It was Sharon's scandalous past.To avoid being photographed by paparazzi, Sharon had never been to the rural town since she became a star.Also, she had left her son to her relatives. Every year, she paid a large amount of fixed alimony.She felt extremely embarrassed and muttered, "Even so, Joanna has an affair with Jack. What's worse, she's the actress of the rival company. Mr. Atherton, if you insist on being with her, you're harming the interests of the company. Have you ever thought about what the employees of Eclipse Worldwide Entertainment Co. will think?"Edwin turned to look at Joanne gently and affectionately. There was only Joanne in his deep eyes."As long as Jo feels happy, I even would like to give Eclipse Worldwide Entertainment Co. to her. It's none of my business what the employees will think.""You..." Sharon couldn't believe what she had heard."You have made so many efforts on Eclipse Worldwide Entertainment Co. these years. Are you willing to
