Chapter 153

Hearing Joanne's name, Jordan was seething with fury. Unable to take in any of the sarcasm that Edric had thrown him, Jordan finally understood how Edric went to Mencodia. It turned out that Joanne had disclosed Eden's identity to Edric. Edric went to Mencodia not only to get Irene back, but also to meet Eden. Jordan knew very well that the reason for the divorce between Irene and Edric was that Irene couldn't give birth to the Myers family. Margaret had wanted a grandson so badly that she did not mind forcing Edric to divorce Irene.

Now that Edric had realized that Eden was his son, he would definitely not allow Irene to marry Nathan. Certainly, he would make sure to have both Eden and Irene back. He might even go to great lengths to stop the marriage between Nathan and Irene. Even if Irene insisted on marrying Nathan, Edric would, too, fight with Irene for Eden's custody. With the influence of the Myers family in San Fetillo, Irene stood no chance against Edric at all. If Eden was taken away by Edric, it would definitely devastate her. Thinking of Irene's current situation, Jordan's heart couldn't help feeling aching. He had to hold Joanne accountable for everything. At this moment, he wanted nothing more than to fly to Mencodia and teach her a lesson. Without a second thought, he dialled Joanne's number.

Joanne was lying on the sofa in her room, reading a magazine, wallowing in boredom. When she saw Jordan's name on her phone, her heart almost leapt out of her chest in excitement.

Jordan rarely took the initiative to call her. The day before, he had called her and inquired about Irene. Despite feeling sour inwardly, in order to show her generosity, she pretended to be sincere and reported the situation of Irene and Eden to him.

She had also told him that Nathan wanted to marry Irene so Jordan would give up on Irene. At that time, Jordan sounded rather frigid on the phone, and she knew that he must be despondent to learn Irene's marriage. However, time would water down everything. She strongly believed that he would soon forget about Irene and accept her wholeheartedly.

At this time, Jordan should have just reached his workplace when he called her. Had he given Irene up completely now that he had known that she was going to get married? Was that the reason he was reminded of her? Did that mean that he was going to treat her well? Joanne couldn't wait to press the answer button. With a voice as delicate as that of a hummingbird, she chirped, "Hello, Jordan, why are you calling me at this time?"

"Joanne, why did you tell Edric about Eden? What's exactly up your sleeve for telling Edric this?"

Jordan's roar had almost deafened Joanne's ears. She did not expect that Jordan would call her at such an hour and lashed out at her. He did all these because of that b*tch, Irene!

Jordan had only had his eyes on Irene. At any time, he would only care about Irene and would never condescend to spare a thought at Joanne.

All of a sudden, the joy in Joanne's heart fizzled into thin air and she burst into tears. Joanne wanted to just scream at the phone, at Jordan.

However, she knew that Jordan was a man who breathed ruthlessness. What if he changed his mind and refused to marry her because she got under his skin? Wouldn't it be a waste of all her previous efforts?

Taking a deep breath and suppressing the anger in her heart, she said,, "Jordan, why are you being such a savage? What do I gain from this? Why would I do this if not for Irene and Eden? Eden has leukemia, and Irene is worried to death in order to cure him. The doctor said in order to save Eden, Irene and Edric must have a child.

With a tone underlying with dejection, she added, "I saw that Irene had been brooding with the fact that Edric had abandoned her. There's no way she would go to find Edric, begging him to save Eden. I only wanted to help her, hence I told Edric the truth. As long as he provides his sperm to Irene, he will be able to save Eden. None of this will affect the marriage between Nathan and Irene anyway. Isn't this perfect? Why do you blame me?" In fact, Joanne had already known that Irene was pregnant.

"Bullsh*t, do you think I will believe you? You just can't stand seeing Irene living a good life, so you told Edric about Eden. You told him to stop Irene from marrying Nathan, and you also wanted him to rob Eden from Irene. Mark my words, if Irene and Eden get hurt because of this, I will not let you get away with this!"
