Chapter 1458
The bodyguard's actions were brutal. Joanne was covering her stomach with one hand. She looked in great pain,
her face extremely pale and her forehead covered with beads of sweat.
When Harry got Joanne's signature, he bluntly pushed Joanne to the floor.
Joanne curled herself up in pain. The maids rushed over to help her up, but she couldn't move but lay motionless on
the floor.
The video was taken secretly and the voice was vague.
Edwin could not hear what Harry said to Joanne, but it was clear to Edwin that the paper Harry gave Joanne was the
divorce agreement.
After Edwin finished watching the video, he played it again and again. Each time he watched the video, his eyes
became more bloodshot.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEdwin was dumbfounded.
He had subconsciously refused to investigate Joanne's elopement with Patrick over the years. He never knew that
Joanne had been forced to sign the divorce agreement.
She waited anxiously at home for Edwin to return, but she only saw Harry with the divorce agreement. She was
forced to sign the divorce agreement when she was in great pain. She must have been desperate!
But at that time, Edwin was not with her, and he misunderstood her. He believed that Joanne had betrayed him and
that she had divorced him in order to run away with Patrick!
Edwin felt his eyes suddenly covered with darkness. A great pain struck his heart, and he could barely breathe. He
tugged at his collar with his hands.
Seeing Edwin's eyes turn bloodshot, Lucas was stunned.
He had worked with Edwin for years, and he knew very well that Joanne had always been a pain in Edwin's heart.
At the Atherton family's Old House, no one had ever dared to mention Joanne, but no one knew that the divorce
agreement had come this way.
"Mr. Atherton, don't blame yourself. You were wounded. Since your divorce from Mrs. Atherton, the maids at the
house have been almost all replaced. You could not have foreseen that your father would use a stratagem to break
you and Mrs. Atherton up."
"No! I should have thought of that!" Edwin's voice was hoarse and somber, "Why didn't I investigate the matter?
Why did I simply believe the divorce agreement?”
Lucas looked embarrassed. He was silent.
'Mr. Atherton was perplexed. He forgot something.
'Although Mr. Atherton is a smart man, when it's about Mrs.
Atherton, his heart is in turmoil and he loses his sense.
Actually, Mrs. Atherton and Patrick had been caught in bed.'
"Since the divorce agreement was fake, were the plane tickets or the photo of Joanne and Patrick at the airport also
fake?" Edwin asked abruptly.
Lucas immediately showed Edwin the digital archive of Joanne and Patrick's plane tickets.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"The tickets were real, but after I investigated it, it turned out that the couple who appeared at the airport were not
Mrs. Atheron and Patrie, although they looked like them.
Someone should have deliberately fooled us with this photo, w
Edwin immediately raised his eyes and stared at Lucas, "I want to know how Joanne got all those scars."
Lucas showed an embarrassed look. After he found out so much information, he couldn't wait to report it to Edwin
and that was all he had got at that moment.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Atherton, but we got some trouble with the investigation. We cannot find out where Mrs. Atherton
went after leaving the house and the maids do not know the details..." So the trail was broken.
"Why are you standing here? Go and find that out!" Edwin roared. He was obviously angry with Lucas's answer.
Lucas sighed silently.
"Yes, Mr. Atherton."
"If you find out the matter, your bonus this year will be
doubled ten times." As Lucas was about to walk out the door, Edwin's low voice rang out, no emotion in his tone,
though.
