Chapter 1012
"How come it's a coincidence that you bought an expired pregnancy test stick, and it turned out to show two lines? I'm
sure someone's trying to use the child to tie herself to Eddy!"
"I didn't!" Joanne yelled back at Harry angrily. "Pretending to be pregnant wasn't my idea at all!"
Sylvie was shocked, and her face suddenly turned pale.
Seeing that, Kelly hurriedly handed her a cup of tea and reprimanded Joanne, "Miss Winters, everyone knows that Master
Edwin is obsessed with you. Are you saying that Master Edwin was the one who planned all these to fool Old Madam
Atherton? How dare you?!'
Joanne thought of the close relationship between Edwin and Sylvie. If she said it was Edwin's idea, Sylvie would be hurt
even more.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter all, being hurt by the one who trusted and cared the most, hurt the most.
A wild thought suddenly occurred to Joanne.
'Noah is back at Edwin's side now, so l'm...basically useless now.'
Gritting her teeth, Joanne said loudly, "Well, since you found out, then I have nothing to say. You can think whatever
you want!"
"You're a b*tch!” Harry stepped forward and slapped Joanne. "From today onward, you have no relationship with
the Atherton family, and you can no longer be called Eddy's wife to the outside world. I'll have someone send you
the divorce agreement.'
Even though she was slapped forcefully by Harry, causing her face to swell red, her heart was unexpectedly calm.
She seemed to have accepted the fact that she was expelled from the Atherton family.
Perhaps she knew from the very beginning that the Atherton family was not her home, and Edwin was not a
husband who gave her a sense of security. She knew she would leave that manor one day. It was just that she never
thought she would leave the manor in such a miserable way.
There was an instant she evilly thought that she should exploit Sylvie's kindness toward her before her lie was
exposed.
"Grandma, thank you very much for taking care of me during this time.
When I leave, promise me to take good care of yourself." Joanne bowed deeply to Sylvie, her eyes reddening as she
did.
"Of course I'll take care of my mother. You don't need to pretend to be kind here. Get lost! Kelly, when she packs
up, keeps an eye on her. Don't let her take away anything that doesn't belong to her!"
Kelly, too, was surprisingly angry.
'If she dares to take Master Edwin's things indiscriminately, I'll make sure she leaves this house after paying the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmprice she should!"
Kelly has been serving Sylvie for decades, and this was the first time someone dared to fool Sylvie.
Sadly, Sylvie even hired a designer to build a children's playground in the manor for the expected child. She anticipated
the child's birth so longingly, too.
Compared with the joy at that time and the disappointment Sylvie had, Kelly wanted to kill Joanne so badly.
'What a scheming b*tch! Fortunately, Master Edwin isn't here. Otherwise, she'll trick him to take the blame for her...'
Joanne went upstairs to pack her things while Kelly was staring at her as though she was a thief. She even brought
several maids to watch her all the time. However, Joanne did not bring anything with her when she left.
Seemed like the place was never home to her.
She just took two sets of clothes that she bought with her own money and stuffed them casually in the suitcase.
Before leaving, Kelly was called away by Sylvie, and when she came back, Joanne was about to get in a cab.
"Joanne, wait a minute." Kelly chased after her and took out the check from her pocket with a solemn look. "This is from
Old Madam Atherton. Keep the money, and keep your mouth shut. If we find out that you dare to corrupt the reputation
of the Atherton family, you'll spend the rest of your life in prison."
