Chapter 1585

Joanne hesitated whether she should explain to Lucas, but in the end, she decided to forget it.

She handed Lucas the phone and then was about to leave, but Lucas didn't take the phone.

"Ms. Atherton, Mr. Atherton is in a bad mood because there’s something wrong with a project. Can you give the phone to Mr. Atherton yourself? Mr. Atherton loves you so much. He must be very happy when he sees you."

Joanne gave a faint smile. "You're so loyal. Shouldn’t Edwin give you a raise?"

"Mr. Atherton already pays me a lot more than my peers!" Lucas said modestly. Then he continued in a joking tone, "Ms. Atherton, I would appreciate it if you would say something nice about me to Mr. Atherton."

Joanne was speechless.

Lucas led Joanne in Edwin's private elevator. They went up to Edwin's office on the top floor.

The receptionist recognized Joanne. She was scolded by Lucas for keeping Joanne out last time.

When Joanne showed up at the Atherton Group, the chat gr

    Chapter 1586Joanne pushed open the door to Edwin's office. There was a faint smell of rose perfume in the office.  Noah thought it was Edwin, so she deliberately tugged her collar down and gave a seductive smile. But when she turned her head and saw that it was Joanne, she froze.  "What are you doing here?" Noah glanced behind Joanne. Not seeing Edwin, she frowned in disappointment.  "This is my husband's office. Why can't it be me?" Joanne gracefully walked over to Edwin's desk, pulled out his chair, and sat down. "What do you want with Edwin?" Seeing Joanne sitting in Edwin's chair, Noah looked slightly belligerent. "That's Edwin's chair. Don't you know he hates people touching his stuff?"  'Why is she emphasizing that Edwin is her husband? Is she showing off to me?' Noah sneered inwardly.  "Really?" Joanne looked at Noah's exasperated look with a teasing smile and said, "But Edwin told me that as long as I like it, everything he has is mine. Even if I want a star, he'l

    Chapter 1587Joanne was dressed in white today. Her black dress and the black leather chair created a strong visual compact.  'What if I hold her down in the chair and then...' An evil thought came to Edwin's mind.  "You brought me a cake?" Edwin’s Adam’s apple rolled up and down. He forced himself to turn his gaze to the cake on the desk.  Joanne forced a smile and pushed the cake towards Edwin, "Yes. Lucas said you were in a meeting. I thought you must be tired, so I brought you a cake."  "I like it." Edwin reached over and opened the cake box, and a piece of cake in the shape of a bunny appeared.  Joanne felt embarrassed inside. Actually, the cake was for Tail.  She added, "It looks cute and it tastes really good."  Edwin had a tender look in his eyes. He took the knife and fork out of the box and handed it to Joanne. "Feed me." Noah had never seen Edwin act like this before.  In front of Noah, Edwin was always aloof. Even when they were in a relationship abroad year

    Chapter 1588Noah was reluctant to give up. She choked out, "Are you pretending to be intimate with Joanne in front of me? In the past four years, you avoided me and said that Sharon was Mrs. Atherton."But it turns out that Sharon is just your excuse."I know that you won't treat me as well as before and that I have lost your love, but can't we be friends? You know that I still love you. How can you kiss Joanne in front of me? You're stabbing me in my heart!"Edwin noticed that Joanne had been abstracted. She glanced at Noah from time to time.He felt annoyed.He bit Joanne's lower lip and sucked it so hard that even her cerise lipstick was eaten by him. Then he pressed his forehead against hers and said, "It seems that I’m not much of a good kisser. How dare you be abstracted when I'm kissing you?"The scene was a big blow to Noah. She almost collapsed."Excuse me, what did you say?" Edwin acted as if he just noticed Noah. He said coldly, "My wife was so sweet that I didn't p

    Chapter 1589'Now that Noah sows disorder between Joanne and me again and again, there is no need for me to let her work in my company anymore.'Noah was anxious and breathed heavily."No. I won't leave here. I haven't finished speaking yet. Do you think that Joanne loves you? She says that you badger her all the time and that she doesn't love you at all. It's meaningless for you to keep her by your side. I'm the one who loves you the most..."Edwin's attitude was clear and firm, but Noah was reluctant to accept it and struggled desperately. Seeing the scene, Joanne had mixed feelings. She interrupted Noah, "You're right. I no longer love Edwin."As soon as Joanne finished speaking, the atmosphere in the office crackled with tension. Although it was summer, it made them feel cold all over.Noah fell into a trance and didn't expect Joanne to have the guts to admit it!Joanne was too arrogant!It was hard for any man to hear his wife say that.In the next second, Joanne added, "

I promise that you won't see her in the Atherton Group again."After Joanne spoke her mind, she felt uneasy. She didn't calm down until she found that Edwin's attitude became gentler."I heard it, but it seems that she is reluctant to give up."Edwin promised seriously, "I only love Tail and you. Even if she is reluctant to give up, it won't make any difference." Edwin grabbed Joanne's hand and put it on his heart. "Can you feel it? My heart has belonged to you already. Except for you, it won't beat for any other woman."When Edwin looked at Joanne in a firm and gentle gaze, she felt that she had gotten the whole world.Her heart beat faster involuntarily...'If his heart stops beating, he will die.'Does he mean that he can't live without me?'"Noah said that Patrick and I..."Edw

She prepared the sleeping pills and walked into the hotel.At the same time, Edwin also got the news."Mr. Atherton, Noah has invited a bunch of paparazzi to expose the affair of your father and her!"Edwin had arranged for bodyguards to keep an eye on Harry. Harry got rid of them and wore a cap and unimpressive sportswear. He looked totally different from usual. He arrived at the hotel where he had an appointment with Noah.Harry pushed open the door. A faint scent of flowers filled the air.Noah wasn't in the bedroom. Harry heard the sound of running water from the bathroom.He frowned slightly and confirmed the room number again. After he confirmed that he hadn't gone to t

Are you sure you still want to hold back your desire? Isn't this a win-win situation? You should know that once you stepped into this hotel today, there's no turning back..."There were two conflicting voices inside Harry, and upon hearing her final sentence, he went crazy with anger."My son doesn't want you, yet you dare to mess with me. You bitch! Are you so desperate for a man?"Suddenly, the door was forcefully kicked open, and a group of journalists stormed in with cameras.On the bedroom's large bed, Harry interrogated with vicious words, "Are you satisfied now? Now can you tell me why my granddaughter was kidnapped... Ah!"Before Harry and Noah could comprehend the situation, a sudden influx of journalists stormed in, accompanied by an in

Close your eyes..."Noah was really on the verge of collapse. She fell to the ground without anything to cover herself with, so she picked up the scattered sportswear of Harry and held it tightly against her chest, trembling and afraid to move.At this moment, a burst of applause suddenly came from outside the door."Thank you so much, Mr. Atherton and Miss Sinclair. My life is too boring recently, and you two specially staged such a good show for me." The half-teasing voice of Edwin gradually approached and became clearer.The paparazzi all made their way, and Edwin held Joanne's hand as they walked in.Noah stared intently at the suddenly appeared Edwin and Joanne, her eyes filled with shock, anger, and madness after being calculated. It turned out to be him!Edwin and Joanne had planned it a

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

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.

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

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.
