"Do you really have to ask me that?" Jeremy flew into a rage, each word cutting through the phone. "Do you want the whole world to see you being so shamelessly lovey-dovey with Elliot, Joanna?"The whole world, he said. Joanna finally understood why Jeremy was furious. She had noticed the cameras pointing their way earlier, but she hadn't paid any attention to them. Joanna giggled. "Why does it bother you so much, Mr. Hansen? All you have to do is sign the divorce agreement, and everything I do will not affect you."Besides, only the Hansens and the people around them knew about their relationship. "Joanna Thompson!" The veins on Jeremy's forehead popped. "I decide whether we divorce or not. As long as you're still my wife, you have the duty to remain loyal to me.""Are you alright in the head, Mr. Hansen?" Joanna was done going along with him. "I'm not, and it's your fault." Surprisingly, Jeremy didn't retort to her this time. "We'll divorce only if you abort the baby, Joan

Chapter 42

Before Joy's boyfriend could stab Joanna, a powerful kick sent him flying. He let out a painful cry before crashing to the floor with a loud thud. Joy and the other guy were shocked and hurriedly turned to look behind them. When they saw Elliot, who looked so vicious that it seemed like he could kill them, they immediately bolted. However, it was too late. Elliot had brought some security guards with him, and they quickly subdued Joy and the other guy. "How should we deal with them, Joanna?" Elliot asked, kicking Joy's boyfriend for good measure."They tried to rob me at knifepoint. Take them to the police," Joanna replied coolly."Please let us go, Joanna. We let the moment go to our heads. We were just following orders." Joy begged fearfully as she was being pinned down by the security guard. Elliot's expression darkened at her words. "Who gave you the order?""It's Ms. Slinger," Joy revealed. She was truly a two-faced snake. "She said that you're pregnant. If we can make

Chapter 43

After a simple questioning process, the police officers led Nadine to the door with big smiles on their faces. Joanna had just finished giving her statement. She was about to get into her car when a Maybach G900 drove over. To her surprise, Jeremy had come. She had no intention of meeting him. With one foot already inside, she quickly entered the car."Joanna." The last thing Joanna had expected was to hear Nadine's voice from behind her before she could properly enter. She withdrew her foot and turned to face the latter. Nadine hurried over and stopped in front of Joanna with an apologetic expression. "I'm sorry, Joanna. I had no idea Joy and her friends would pretend to work with me and demand money from you. It's all my fault. Are you okay?"Elliot looked thoroughly disgusted by Nadine's performance, his lips twitching in response. Before Joanna could say anything, he spoke up. "Here's some advice for you, Nadine. Don't be too conceited and ruthless. Otherwise, you might

Chapter 44

Nadine stared at Jeremy for a while and ran the question in her head over and over. Finally, she mustered the courage to ask, "Joanna told me she wants a divorce and has already signed the papers. Do you think she did it because of Elliot?"Naturally, Nadine wasn't interested in the reason behind Joanna's actions. What she wanted to know was whether Jeremy was going to divorce Joanna. And if so, when would he do it?Nadine had dreamed of becoming Jeremy's wife for over five years now. It was torturous for her to wait for even a second longer. "I don't want you to question me about my marriage with Joanna. Just focus on getting ready for your concert," Jeremy replied nonchalantly, eyes still shut.Nadine looked at him, and the disappointment that flashed in her eyes was unmistakable. It quickly turned into rage, hatred, and malice."Okay," she said, her voice still tender and submissive. "I will make sure I'm ready for it. I won't let you down."…When Joanna returned to Maplewo

Chapter 45

"You need to know when to stop creating trouble, Joanna." It was obvious that Wendy was controlling her anger at the other end of the phone. "Back then, I was against letting you and Jeremy get married when Anthea proposed it. However, I eventually relented upon seeing that you're understanding, elegant, and mature. "But no one could've guessed just how incompetent you'd turn out to be. You had three years, yet you still failed to win Jeremy's heart. To this day, he's still hung up over that Slinger woman. Tell me, whose fault is that?"Wendy paused momentarily before she continued. "The blame lies in your incompetence, Joanna.""You're right, Wendy. I am incompetent. So, the best course of action is to get Jeremy to sign the divorce agreement as soon as possible," Joanna replied nonchalantly. "Why, you!" Wendy was livid by her response. Joanna had never dared to speak to her like this before. Still, she was willing to let it slide for the sake of the twins. Wendy shoved her

Chapter 46

In the first two years that Eterna Group had been founded, the Beckers hadn't stopped wanting to screw with Elliot. However, Eterna Group was too powerful, and the Beckers couldn't afford to offend them. So, they stopped pulling off petty schemes behind Elliot's back, allowing him and his company to grow.Needless to say, Elliot had severed all ties with the Becker family. He no longer cared about their fates and vice versa. Joanne chuckled bitterly at Elliot's words. She looked at him and asked, "Do you think I give a damn about how Jeremy treats me?"Elliot looked at Joanna. Then, he raised his hand and caressed her head lovingly. They shared a similarly tragic fate. Naturally, they appreciated each other deeply. They might not have been a family, but they were even closer to each other than most families were.…Wendy was very satisfied with how obedient Joanna was. After all, she listened to her orders and moved back to the Hansen residence. When it was night, Wendy ask

Chapter 47

There was an empty seat between Joanna and Jeremy when they sat at the round dining table. Meanwhile, Wendy made a point to sit next to him, so she could put food on his plate for the entire dinner. "You've grown much skinnier lately. Here, have more food," Wendy said, sounding upset as she gave him a piece of meat. She was also well aware of the fact that she had completely ignored Jeremy in the past. After all, she had been focusing her attention solely on Joseph, and she knew it was wrong for her to do that.Wendy fully intended to make up for it, but Jeremy was rather indifferent to her efforts. In the past, his expression would darken whenever she put food on his plate or expressed her concern for him. Today, however, he didn't give her a dirty look. Instead, he was willing to eat everything she gave him. Wendy was overjoyed, and she had never stopped smiling. "Here, have some food too, Joanna," Sean said lovingly when he noticed that Joanna was ignored. In fact, he w

Chapter 48

"What's the matter? Do you think you have nothing to fear just because you're pregnant?" Jeremy spoke as sharply as he had always been. Joanna merely looked at him wordlessly. "The babies you're carrying have better be my kids, Joanna. Otherwise, I will never let you or the man off the hook." Jeremy added coldly. With that, he stormed out of the garden. She watched as he disappeared from the glow of the streetlight. For a moment there, she was stunned. What did Jeremy mean by what he said? Why did he start thinking that Joanna might've been pregnant with his babies? What brought on the sudden change?Moreover, was that his way of saying he was okay with her giving birth to the twins?Was it possible that Jeremy would kick her out of the picture once they were born? Would he make her twins think that Nadine was their mother?No way. That wasn't happening. Joanna would make sure of it. The twins were hers, and no one could take them away from her. This gave Joanna more motiv

Chapter 49

The people at Eterna Group just had to execute its marketing strategies well. Then, it would've been logical to ask for three or four times its current price. Hansen Group might've been the leading company in Clementson City, but it wouldn't have been easy for them to fork out six to seven billion dollars in one go."Okay." Elliot was quite excited. "I'll bring a team with me and drop by Yvestone Co. in the next two days.""Alright." Joanna nodded. "Close the deal as soon as possible. Don't drag it out.""You got it."…Jeremy was on a business trip, but Joanna didn't know about it until she was having dinner with Wendy and Sean several days later. A major overseas project of Hansen Group ran into an issue, and he had to be there to handle it personally. He probably wouldn't return to the country until it was resolved completely.That also meant that Joanna would have an easier time. Owing to the twins in her belly, she enjoyed a comfortable and worry-free life at the Hanse

Chapter 50

Did Wendy just say she asked someone to poke a hole in Jeremy's condom?Joanna's eyes widened in shock. So, that was what happened. She was also confused about her pregnancy. After all, Jeremy used a condom whenever they slept together.It turned out Joanna had Wendy to thank for all of this. If that was the case, then why didn't the latter tell Jeremy about it?Was it because Wendy was worried that her relationship with Jeremy would turn sour the same way it did three years ago? Back then, she secretly made Nadine swallow the abortion pills, and that led him to distance himself from her. Was that why Wendy kept her latest dirty trick a secret and made Joanna out to be the scapegoat?"You should've told Jeremy about it, then. Why would you let Joanna suffer like this?" Sean asked again. "How has she suffered in any way?" Wendy was immediately displeased. "She should be thankful that she could have Jeremy's baby. Once she gives birth to the twins, her life will only become bette
