Chapter 259

Joanna took up the phone and glanced at it. She felt annoyed when she realized the call was from Shaun.

Joanna thought, “Dad never calls me for something good. He must call me to talk about Roxanne again.”

Joanna did not want to answer Shaun’s call. Thus, she muted the phone and placed it aside.

“Sorry, the number you have dialed is currently unavailable…”

Ingrid cursed, “Damn it. Joanna didn’t answer the phone!”

Shaun said, “That’s it. Joanna doesn’t pick up the phone. Stop calling her again!”

However, Ingrid did not give up and kept calling Joanna.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Ingrid gave Joanna eight calls in a row. Joanna couldn’t take it anymore and finally picked it up.

“Hi, Dad!” said Joanna.

When Ingrid realized Joanna picked up the phone, her eyes lit up. Then she hurriedly gave the phone to Shaun and gave Shaun a look to urge him to answer the phone now.

Shaun was angry at Ingrid. However, he frowned and took the phone.

Shaun greeted, “Hey, Joann!”

“What is it?” Joanna’s voice was cold.

Shaun paused for a moment and subconsciously glanced at Ingrid and Roxanne.

Roxanne and Ingrid held their breaths and stared at Shaun with anxiety and expectation.

Shaun coughed and said in a low voice, “Hey, umm. Do you have time now?”

“What? Just say it!” Joanna sounded extremely cold.

Joanna thought, “I know my dad just wants to talk about Roxanne when he calls me, even if he doesn’t say anything.”

Shaun said, “Dad wants to see you!”

Joanna replied, “Say it over the phone if you have something to say! I’m busy. I don’t have time to see you!”

Shaun hesitated for a while and asked, “Well. Have you decided to remarry Mr. Everett?”

Joanna was stunned and did not answer Shaun’s question.

Joanna thought, “Deep down, I don’t want to remarry Bruce.

“However, Bruce has a strong desire for control. He will do anything to achieve his goal if he decides to do it.

“Therefore, remarriage with Bruce is not something I can control.”

Shaun noticed Joanna’s silence and took it as a yes. Thus, Shaun said in a deep voice, “What about Roxy if you remarry Mr. Everett? Have you ever thought about that?
