Chapter 322

Joanna would only reach out to him if it were about seeing their children.

It was often said that men could be heartless in relationships..

But in truth, when a woman fell out of love, she could be far more ruthless.

Joanna arrived at Century Plaza Station at 9.30 am. the next day, well ahead of time.

With a few insulated containers in hand, Joanna carried the cakes and dumplings she had personally made.

She couldn’t make up for everything she had done wrong, but she wanted to do what she could for her children.

At precisely 10 a.m., a chauffeur–driven luxury car pulled up, followed by a nanny car stopping in front of her.

When the doors opened, Davian and Irvin hopped out of the car.

Shortly after, the nanny emerged, cradling Lilia in her arms.

“Mommy…” Davian and Irvin called out in their usual manner.

Joanna felt a pang in her heart, her eyes welling up with tears. She hurriedly approached her children. “Davian, Irvin, Lilia! I’ve missed you so much. Do you miss Mommy?”

“Yes!”

“Mommy…” The three little ones looked a bit weary as they gazed at Joanna.

Although the children still showed happiness, an invisible barrier seemed to have formed.

After being separated for such a long time, even the strongest bond could slowly dissipate. Especially since the children were only five, their emotions and perceptions were still developing.

They could quickly adapt to new environments and new lives.

Having spent over half a year with the Everett family, they had already adapted to their new lives.

“Mommy, why haven’t you come to see us for so long?” Davian furrowed his little brow, his tone laced with a hint of dissatisfaction.

Joanna knelt and planted a kiss on Davian’s cheek. “Mommy has been very busy lately…”

But Irvin interjected before Joanna could finish her sentence, his voice filled with frustration. “Hmph, we knew Mommy would say that!”

“It’s always either Daddy being busy or Mommy being busy. We’ve gotten used to it. Who has time to spend with us anymore?”

“Daddy is busy with the pretty lady, and Mommy is busy with Mr. Grimm. We’re not important to Mominy and Daddy anymore!”

With a pout, Irvin displayed his discontent.

Joanna listened in silence, feeling a sharp pang in her chest.

“I’m sorry, it’s Mommy’s fault, alright? It’s all Mommy’s fault! Can you forgive Mommy?”

“Mommy, we know you’re busy. So, we won’t blame you. But deep down, there’s still some disappointment.”
