Chapter 941

Upstairs, Joanne realized that she had been tricked and almost mistook Cedrick for Edwin. The thought flustered her greatly. Fortunately, nothing happened, otherwise, it would not be enough to atone for her sin even if she committed suicide!

Cedrick was Catelyn's husband, and she was her cousin-in-law...

She covered her face as she began to blush in embarrassment.

"Did you learn your lesson?" In the room where no one was around except them, Edwin sarcastically said, "I told you before I came here to follow me closely and not run around. This circle isn't as simple as you imagined."

Joanne hid under the quilt and quietly poked her head out a little, showing a pair of regretful eyes. "I was right beside Grandma all the time, but who knew that the waiter would bump into me just as I turned around! Besides, how did I know that your waiter would harm me? It's all because of your lax recruitment and improper review of your employee. If he were in the film crew, this kind of person couldn't even pass the interview."

Edwin smirked, and it was the type of smile that would unnerve people.

Joanne's back felt cold as she muttered again, "Okay, okay! I admit that I was too careless this time, but nothing went wrong, thankfully. By the way, did you bribe Doctor Rudolf early in the morning?"

When Edwin heard that, he smiled evilly. "Even if he was bribed, you wouldn't be able to hide it for long. Your belly should show up now."

Joanne pursed her lips and touched her belly.

She and Edwin had been constantly having sex, but still, she could not get pregnant.

"Edwin, are you sick?" she asked suddenly.

Edwin looked a bit crossed by this question. "What are you saying?"

"No, no, don't get me wrong! I mean, you've been a playboy for so many years, but you haven't had any scandals about illegitimate children. Could it be that...you're sterile?"

Joanne's face reddened as she hurriedly justified herself, "I have regular physical examinations, so I must be in the clear! Don't turn the blame-"

"Get some rest. After the birthday party is over, we'll go to the hospital for an examination to see who's the one with problems."

Joanne nodded, but she became suspicious as she asked, "If I'm the one with problems, you'll definitely divorce me, right?"

Edwin wanted to nod to that, but seeing her eyes shining with anticipation as if she was eager to divorce him, he sneered. "Grandma only recognizes you as her granddaughter-in-law, so if you can't give birth, I'll find someone to be a surrogate. Don't worry, you'll be the child's mom. In short, don't try to run away. I still have evidence that you sexually harassed me."

"Are you going to tie me up for the rest of your life?" Joanne sat up from the bed, frightened, and she stared at him intently.

The mobile phone in Edwin's pocket vibrated suddenly, indicating a text message was received. After reading it, he left the bedroom without looking back and went to find Cedrick.

Cedrick stayed by the bedside with Catelyn until the door was knocked.

He opened the door and saw Edwin outside, though unsurprised.

"How's Cat?" Edwin glanced at the girl lying quietly on the bed.

Cedrick shook his head, motioning for him to keep silent, then quietly pulled Edwin to the railing at the end of the corridor. He put one hand on the railing and frowned at him. "Did you find out who framed my wife and yours?"
