Chapter 1118
Joanne slept until five o'clock in the afternoon. Then she gradually came to her senses.
She opened her eyes and saw the white ceiling above her head, and she smelled the faint scent of disinfectant.
Was she in a hospital?
Her mind cleared. She suddenly sat up from the bed, but it accidentally stimulated her tired and sore body. She felt like
she had run a marathon and fallen back to bed.
Her last memory lingered on the scene of the naked Patrick lunging at her.
Later...
It seemed she hit his head with an ashtray at a critical moment.
And then what followed?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt'’Patrick?" Joanne exclaimed, somewhat horrified.
Was he the one who had brought her to the hospital?
On the balcony, Edwin was standing by the high fence smoking a cigarette. There was a crystal ashtray on the
shelf. His fingers were elegantly holding the cigarette as he blew out white smoke. His handsome face was sullen
and terrifying.
When he heard a noise from the ward, he immediately turned around and came back, but the moment he entered
the room, he heard Joanne calling Patrick's name.
As if a pot of cold water had splashed on him, Edwin crushed out his cigarette with his hands, looking furious.
Joanne examined herself under the covers.
Although there were some bruises on her body, those were not finger marks.
For a moment, her body was a little shaky. She couldn't even sit steadily.
Could it be that something had happened between Patrick and her?
Why couldn't she remember anything at all?
"Awake?" A cold male voice suddenly came from overhead.
Joanne looked up and saw Edwin's livid handsome face. Her heart skipped a beat. She looked away from him guiltily.
Why was it Edwin?
Did he take her to the hospital? Did he see her with Patrick?
Edwin kept trying to convince himself to believe her, but when he saw her avoiding his eyes, his heart ached. He
reached out to pinch her jaw and looked at her aggressively. "Was I not good enough to you? You went to meet
Patrick and cuckolded me?"
Joanne knew Edwin must have misunderstood, so she explained in a panic, "No. It was not like that. I did meet
Patrick at the hotel, but that's only because he asked me to deliver medicine."
Her mind was so messy that she couldn't remember many details.
"Are you so close to him that he would ask you to deliver medicine?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJoanne, do you take me for a fool, or do you think it’s a good lie?" Edwin pinched her jaw harder in anger.
"I'm telling the truth. You can ask Patrick if you don't believe me," Joanne's jaw hurt so much. She felt like he was going
to crush her bones. Her eyes misted in pain as she stubbornly stared at him, feeling aggrieved.
Edwin did not look at her tears. "Tell me if you slept with Patrick."
Did she sleep with Patrick?'
Joanne's body shivered gently.
She didn't even know the truth, so how was she going to answer him?
Her hesitation and uncertainty became a silent admission in Edwin's eyes.
She had really betrayed him.
Edwin looked at Joanne askance with hatred, wishing that she could disappear from this world. "Joanne, how dare you?"
"I... I really don't know..." A huge sense of helplessness surfaced in Joanne's eyes, and her voice became dry. It sounded
like she was squeezing words out of her throat.
Edwin shook her jaw off fiercely, took out a stack of photos, and flung them in her face.
"The doctor said you had sex within 12 hours and that the marks were obvious."
