"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

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

"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

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

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
