Chapter 1688

After Jaden gave Lucas a hundred million dollars, he waited apprehensively for Lucas' news.

But Lucas didn't respond.

Jaden couldn't help asking, "Yosef, do you think I've been tricked by Joanna and Lucas? I don't know what Mr. Atherton's attitude is even now."

Yosef frowned. "I didn't agree with your decision to give them the money. Who knows if Lucas is Joanna's lover? Maybe they worked together to extort money from you!"

"A hundred million dollars! You can sue them and send them to jail..." Jaden puffed hard on his cigarette, blew a ring of smoke, and said with hostility in his eyes, "Help me contact a lawyer. If I am really shut out, this 100 million will be my pension money..."

"You should have done this a long time ago. You can't keep putting yourself in such a passive position! Luckily, I still have the evidence of the transfer of money to Lucas."

As they were talking, Jaden's phone suddenly rang.

The caller was a senior executive from Eclipse Worldwide Ente

    Chapter 1689Yosef still felt that something was wrong. But Eclipse Worldwide had arranged an exclusive interview for Jaden, which meant they would keep investing in his public relations and marketing. This was clearly not the attitude towards a star who was being banned. ...The next day, Eclipse Worldwide Entertainment Co. arranged a media interview for Jaden in the name of promoting the new TV drama, and Director Freddie also agreed to it.Joanne noticed the overwhelming online discussions about Jaden. Hashtags like #EnviousOfVisitingFans, #LeakedPhotosOf StoryinRosch, and #JadenIsSoHandsome were constantly being refreshed by the fans. Joanne curled up in bed and habitually scrolled through entertainment headlines for a while.Her eyelids sleepily drooped down... She experienced a surreal feeling, as if she couldn't tell whether she was awake or dreaming.Suddenly, a strong arm wrapped around her waist, holding her tightly. Beep, beep, beep. At this point, her pho

    Chapter 1690Tail blinked her round watery eyes, glanced at Joanne, and then at Edwin. The little girl had an expectant look on her face.  "Daddy, can you grow strawberries on Mama's neck again? I want to record it."  Edwin replied, "If your Mama allows..."  "Mama?" Tail turned to Joanne and pleaded.  Joanne took a sip of her soup. Suppressing her surprise, she replied in a calm voice, "It's breakfast time. If you're not hungry, I'll go to work. I'll be back in the evening."  Although she sounded calm, somehow, Tail felt a little intimidated.  'Did Dad forget to fertilize the strawberries and they died, so Mama got upset? And I reminded her of it?  'No! I can't let Mama be upset! I’m going to be an extra actress on the set with Mama!  ...  Edwin was asked to correct Tail's thoughts.  Joanne told Edwin that if Tail said strawberries on her neck again, Edwin had to repent in the corner!  Edwin couldn't argue with her.  After Joanne left, Edwin said to Tail in a p

    Chapter 1691Time was short and Joanne couldn't make a more perfect look. She especially stretched her eyeliner at the end of her eyes.  When she was not smiling, it made her eyes look elongated and she looked cold. But when she smiled, her smile looked a touch evil.  ...  Sonia went to the costume room to get Joanne's costume.  When she found Joanne's costume, she noticed a big hole in the back of the costume!  "What's wrong?" Sonia demanded angrily.  In the costume room, the other dressers glanced at each other and shook their heads. "Why is this costume torn? There were so many people bustling around in the room just now. We didn't pay attention to it. I'm sorry, Sonia."  "Can someone fix the costume? Joanna needs to wear it soon!" Sonia didn't bother asking who damaged the costume. The most important thing now was to fix it.  The dressers seemed to have gotten instructions in advance. They all shook their heads and said, "The costume is made of a very special fabr

    Chapter 1692...Ten minutes later, Sonia hurried back to the dressing room with Joanne’s costume. A large crowd was gathered in the dressing room. In the center of the crowd was Joanne, who was styling her own hair.  Her long hair was pulled up high and secured with a silver pin. She then looked around and found a black hat. She put the hat on, which spared complicated decoration to her hair and accentuated Shirly's cool aura. In about five minutes, the shoot would start, a tight but enough time for Joanne to get changed into her costume.  Sharon and the dressers around, who had been expecting to see Joanne's joke, all froze.  Especially Sharon...  She couldn't believe that Joanne could do her hair and makeup without a dresser.  'Well, it’s fine...' A wicked look flashed across Sharon's eyes. 'Her costume was torn. She's going to embarrass herself in front of the press today.' Just then, Sonia called out in a soft voice, "Joanna, here’s your costume."   People moved

    Chapter 1693Once Sonia went to a club and she saw Sharon there. Sharon was having her birthday party. She called several male models to have fun with her.  Sonia hacked into the security system and got the surveillance footage of Sharon's room.  "Yes. It's such an important video. Of course, I kept it. What are you thinking about?"  "I told Edwin that Sharon was always giving me trouble and that she had Jaden on her side. I told Edwin to shut her out of show business, but we need a reason. Since she hates me so much, I'm paying her back with this video,"Joanne said as she lifted her chin and curled her lips. Now she looked like a pissed-off fox.  ...  There were a lot of reporters on the set. In line with Eclipse Worldwide Entertainment's arrangement, Director Freddie allowed the press to come and interview the actors. Many of Jaden's fans also sneaked in...  Director Freddie didn't want to cause conflict, so he didn't have the fans driven away, but he arranged more s

    Chapter 1694Edwin was holding Tail in his arms.  They were both wearing masks and hats with Joanna's picture on them. People couldn't see their faces. Even so, Edwin's tall figure gave off an aura of superiority. If they weren't wearing hats that indicated they were Joanna's fans, people would have thought he was an investor. The two were quiet in the crowd.  "Are you guys Joanna’s fans too?" Suddenly, a girl spoke to them, "I'm Joanna’s fan, too! It's so good to meet you guys! I thought I was the only Joanna’s fan here! That would be kind of embarrassing... Hahaha..." The girl was around sixteen. Her smile was a bit childish.  Edwin always looked ahead. He didn't give a glance to the girl, but when he heard Joanna’s name, his eyes became gentle. Tail, in Edwin's arms, immediately gave a bright smile.  Though she wore a hat and mask, her eyes were obviously smiling.  "Yes! We're fans of Joanna! We love her so much!" Tail said in a childish voice. She then turned her hea

    Chapter 1695  Tail scratched her head as she stared at the girl who was playing with Tail’s hat.  Since Tail was in Edwin's arms and in a higher position, she tried to get her hat back...  However, the girl pushed Tail brutally.  Tail lost her balance and she almost fell out of Edwin's arms.  Luckily, Edwin caught Tail in time. He then put her on the floor.  Tail became even more angry.  'That ugly girl not only took my hat but also pushed me!'  "You are a bad girl! Give me back my hat! If you don't give it back to me, I'm going to punch you!" Tail then raised her fist and slammed it at the girl's leg.  Although Tail didn't whack it hard, the girl subconsciously tried to kick Tail away as if Tail made her sick.The girl had such a fierce look on her face as if she was going to kill Tail. Unfortunately, she was among those who had an innate hatred for children. What if she got kicked by someone she hated?'If she gets at Tail, it must hurt badly.' Joanne's fan was so

    Chapter 1696Some people claimed they were going to call the police. Soon it was a mess on the set.  Paparazzi were all excited about such a confrontation. They all turned their cameras to the scene, waiting to film Jaden's and Joanna's fans having a fight.  If it were before, Edwin would have just cleared all those people out of the place, but he had promised Joanne he wouldn't meddle in her acting career, and now Tail was with him. He didn't want Tail exposed to the paparazzi.  Joanna's fan didn't want Joanne to get into strife. She whispered to Tail and Edwin, "Calm down. Take it easy. There are so many of Jaden’s fans and they're crazy. It's just a hat. Don't get into a conflict with them."  However, even though Joanna's fan didn't want to start any trouble, Jaden's fans wouldn't let go.  Edwin's face turned grim.  Hearing paparazzi'various questions and seeing their cameras targeting them and a Jaden’s fan lying on the ground screaming, Tail showed a scared face and h

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.

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.

    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.
