Jeremy Hansen throws a divorce agreement at Joanna Thompson on the day she finds out she's pregnant with twins. He also gives her 300 million dollars as their breakup fee. Why? Because his true love is back in the country! Joanna doesn't kick a fuss or throw a tantrum. She takes the money and moves out of their marital home without argument. She doesn't expect Jeremy to be so cruel, though—he wants her to abort the children. Why should she listen to him? "You're not going to abort them, huh?" Jeremy sneers. "Do you think we won't have to go through with the divorce if you're still pregnant with my children?" Joanna sneers back at him. A few days later, she accidentally miscarries. After being discharged from the hospital, she and Jeremy finalize the divorce. Three years later, the paparazzi capture Joanna on a street abroad while holding onto a pair of adorable boy-girl twins. Jeremy stares at the photo as his eyes slowly redden. Then, he flies abroad at top speed to stand in Joanna and the twins' way. "You've played me for three years, Joanna! It's high time that you stop with this tantrum." She takes off her sunglasses and raises a nonchalant eyebrow. "Sorry, but who are you?"

When Love Turns Its Back Chapter 30
Nadine had a manager named Evelyn Crosby, who was hired by Jeremy to tend to her.Evelyn's ultimate goal was for Nadine to become Mrs. Hansen.

Not only did Evelyn obey Nadine's every command, but she also worked tirelessly to ensure her success.In fact, she was the one who helped Nadine find Joy to be her donor.When Evelyn learned that Joy was with Joanna, she panicked and immediately went to discuss ways to resolve this crisis with Nadine.If Joanna took Joy to the police, it would spell Nadine's doom.

Jeremy paused for a moment before making an enigmatic remark. "Donors aren't so easy to come by."Nadine clearly hadn't expected this response. She panicked for a moment before hurriedly replying, "Yes, donors are really hard to find. I'll just have to wait."After a slight pause, she asked cautiously, "Jeremy, you're not mad at me, are you?""Of course not," Jeremy replied."Can I come have lunch with you today?" Nadine asked."I'm busy today. We'll do it another time," Jeremy replied, rejecting her."Okay, then I won't bother you anymore. Take care," Nadine said thoughtfully before hanging up."Mr. Hansen, what I just reported to you is all true. The lead surgeon for the transplant isn't sick. He's likely afraid of the repercussions and how it might damage his career. When our people pressed him, he admitted the truth and refused to proceed with the surgery for Ms. Slinger," Kenneth said.Jeremy's expression darkened. "Where did the woman who sold the uterus go? Find her.""

After washing up and getting dressed, Jeremy came downstairs to find that Polly had already prepared breakfast. She had made coffee too.However, he felt no urge to eat. He didn't even feel the desire to take a bite. He walked straight toward the door."Aren't you going to eat something for breakfast before heading out, Mr. Hansen?" Polly asked.Without turning back, Jeremy instructed, "Find a chef with skills similar to Joanna's."Polly wasn't the least bit upset at his criticism. Instead, she felt relieved and quickly agreed.As soon as Jeremy stepped outside and got into the car, his phone rang again. It was a call from Nadine."Jeremy." As soon as the call connected, there came Nadine's gentle voice which was laced with excitement. "Have you had breakfast yet?""What is it?" Jeremy asked, his expression remaining stoic.Sensing that he seemed unhappy, Nadine's smile faltered. She sounded a little aggrieved as she asked, "Have you forgotten that you promised to accompany me

Jeremy was still pondering and hesitating when his fingers moved on their own accord and hit the call-back button.Joanna was still sound asleep. She was seven weeks pregnant and wrecked with fatigue. In the past, she would have gotten up at 6:00 am without needing an alarm clock. But now, she could easily sleep past seven or eight in the morning.Just then, her phone buzzed on her nightstand. Groggy with sleep, she reached out blindly for her phone and put the call through. "Hello?" she muttered.On the other line, Jeremy had yet to snap out of his daze when he heard Joanna's voice, soft and thick with sleep. A chill chased down his spine as his thoughts returned to him. A familiar electric current coursed through him, only to flow toward his groin."Hello? Who's this?" Joanna prompted sleepily when she didn't get a response."Why did you call me last night, Joanna?" Jeremy asked, his voice low and tight as he held back his urges.Joanna's mind cleared when she heard Jeremy'

The golden morning light filtered through the large windows and cast itself upon Jeremy's chiseled side profile. His thick lashes fluttered as his eyes opened slowly.One of his arms had gone numb after he slept on it through the night, but he felt refreshed, his spirits as new as the morning sun beyond the windows. He blinked and looked around, surprised that he had slept soundly through the night on Joanna's old bed.It was before ten last night when he sprawled over the bed and fell into a dreamless slumber. He didn't stir once in his sleep.As he stared at the sun slowly rising outside the window, his eyes widened. Bewilderment and confusion flickered across his face.Why hadn't he ever shared a bed with Joanna? He reckoned it was because she had the body of a seductress. If he got into bed with her, he doubted he could keep his hands off her. He might very well perish atop her.More importantly, he refused to allow himself to lust over someone as vicious and wicked as her. He

"Who would've thought that someone as sweet-looking as Nadine could be so evil?" Elliot grumbled angrily. He added after some thought, "Maybe you could look for a reporter and expose her. What do you think?"Nadine's reputation would be ruined, and Jeremy would be disgraced.Joanna shook her head and smiled. "You know as well as I do that Mrs. Hansen Senior raised me like her own granddaughter. I will only ever stand up for the Hansen family during tough times but never put them through shame."Elliot clicked his tongue. "You're such a saint. It's almost like you're in love with the Hansens."The comment earned him a wry look from Joanna. He suggested, "What if you talked to Jeremy about this and see if he knows the truth? If he does, there's no need for you to go easy on him, right?"Joanne fell silent as she considered this. Knowing Jeremy, he would never have allowed Nadine to do something illegal like buying organs if he knew about it. Chances were, he was kept in the dark.

Not only that, but Joanna's suspicion about Nadine was right. She was indeed the buyer willing to spend 80 thousand dollars on Joy's uterus for a transplant.Over the phone, Elliot angrily cursed Nadine out, calling her a stinking pile of dog shit. Meanwhile, Joanna remained rather composed."Joanna, we should call the police. Organ trafficking is illegal. Let's make sure Nadine's reputation is ruined, and she ends up in jail. That idiot Hansen can then see for himself the true nature of his so-called perfect love." Elliot was absolutely fuming.Joanna let out a light chuckle. "You said yourself that Nadine used a false identity to arrange the uterus transplant. What use would it be calling the police?"Nadine wasn't foolish enough to use her real identity for illegal organ trading and transplantation."She's not stupid, but the police aren't clueless either. If I could figure this out so easily, the authorities wouldn't even have to try hard," he argued.She nodded in agreement.

"Forcing you to donate your uterus?" Joanna exclaimed in shock. "Why would they do that?""My brother wants to get married, but we have no money."As the woman spoke, tears began to fall. "Someone is willing to pay 80 thousand dollars for my uterus, so they're forcing me to sell it. They want to use the money for my brother's wedding."Joanna stared at her in disbelief, and her eyes widened into saucers.To marry off a son, they would go so far as to force their daughter to sell her uterus. How could a mother…All of a sudden, Joanna was reminded of her own parents and brother.Weren't they the same?For the sake of her brother, her parents would absolutely do the same thing."Please help me! I'm only 22. I don't want to lose my uterus. How would I ever get married and have children? I would never have the chance to be a mother. My boyfriend would definitely leave me…"Seeing Joanna remain silent, the woman clutched her hand tightly. Her plea was laced with pitiful sobs.No u

Joanna had skipped her usual afternoon nap. Hence, she dozed off on the car journey back without realizing it.She wasn't sure how long she'd been asleep when a sudden jolt startled her awake.Fortunately, she was wearing her seatbelt. The impact from the emergency brake flung her body forward, but it was quickly restrained. She was unharmed.Dominic, equally shaken, turned back anxiously. "Ms. Thompson, are you okay?"Joanna took a deep breath and nodded. "What's going on?""A woman suddenly ran out into the street! She scared me half to death," he said, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.Just as he finished speaking, a woman with long, messy hair appeared in front of the car. She clutched the hood, trying to stand with much difficulty.She looked to be injured.Joanna furrowed her brow. At the speed of light, she unbuckled her seatbelt and opened the door to get out.Seeing the woman up ahead, Dominic hurriedly got out as well."Hello, are you okay? Where are you hurt

Chapter 1
Joanna Thompson had just finished her shower and stepped out of the bathroom when her husband, Jeremy Hansen, shoved her against the edge of the bed.His strong, muscular hand slid from her waist to her sides and gripped her narrow waist tightly. This left her no room to protest."…At 3:00 pm this afternoon, Jeremy Hansen, CEO of Hansen Group, arrived at the airport to welcome the return of the Queen of Cello, Nadine Slinger. To ensure her journey home was undisturbed, Jeremy arranged for his newly purchased Gulfstream G700 to pick her up from Lythalia…"Upon hearing the voice from the TV, Joanna couldn't help but turn around to look.On the screen, the strikingly hot Jeremy walked with Nadine as they exited the airport. Nadine held a large bouquet of red roses in her arms with a bright smile. Her face was full of love and admiration for Jeremy.A crowd of reporters surrounded them, asking questions."Mr. Hansen, we've heard you've been waiting for Ms. Slinger for the past thre
