Chapter 3
It was late afternoon after the mortuary house picked up Raymond’s body.
Joanna walked out of the hospital with the others.
“Where do you live? My driver will give you a ride!” Bruce said. His voice was kind of hoarse because Joannal had not spoken to him once before this.
Joanna smiled politely and shook the car keys in her hand. “Thanks, but I drove here.”
The indifferent look on her face made it look like she was simply being polite to a total stranger.

Yet Roxanne took it that Bruce was hitting on Joanna. Her face fell, and quickly, she held Bruce’s arm affectionately, saying, “Joann, why don’t you move back in with us? At least, you don’t have to be alone, and…”
“It’s easier for me to stay in a hotel. Bye!” Joanna waved politely and headed for the underground parking.
Soon, a silver Bentley pulled out of the parking lot, and it roared off while in front of the crowd.
“It seems that my sister has been living a good life these years! She could enjoy such a rich life without any help from the family.”
Bruce did not reply.
During the four years when Joanna had been gone, for various reasons, Bruce did not marry Roxanne. Moreover, with these four years, he realized that Roxanne was simply not the one for him.
The only reason that he did not break up with Roxanne was because of his family. The Haynes family was a wealthy one, but it was nothing compared with the Everetts. However, the elders of both families were close friends. That was why the Everett family had always been taking care of the Haynes family.
Except for that, there was another crucial reason. Ten years ago, Bruce nearly drowned while he swam, and it was Roxanne who saved him. Ever since then, he swore that he would love and protect this girl for the rest of
his life.
“Joann has always been striving since she was just a kid. She is smart and good with men, too. See her fancy. clothes and car? She must have hooked up with some wealthy fellow again. Unlike her, Roxy, you are always stupid and innocent, and people all try to take advantage of you.” Ingrid seemed to be praising Joanna, but it was not hard to recognize what she was implying.
