Chapter 224

Seeing how Nathan had been so anxious over the past few days and had not mentioned about returning to Haverland, Joanne was overjoyed. She knew exactly what kind of person her brother was. When something like that had happened to him, he would definitely feel ashamed to face Irene. If Irene were to find out that her brother had an affair, then the relationship between them would be completely ruined.

Thinking about what had happened that day, Joanne felt proud of her plan.

After knowing Rowane's true identity, Joanne was so excited that she could not sleep the whole night. The next morning, she felt a little dizzy when she was woken up by the alarm clock, but she still groggily got up. Then, she accompanied Britney to have breakfast. These days, she did not dare to live her life lazily in fear of annoying Britney again, and causing Britney's hate towards her to grow even more.

During breakfast, Joanne pretended to be enthusiastic and asked Nathan if he had decided to invite Rowane to come home for dinner. If he did, she would like to prepare the meals in advance.

Nathan said that he would go back to Haverland in a few days' time. He would arrange for Rowane to come and accompany Britney within the next two days.

Joanne secretly rejoiced. She asked for Rowane's food preferences, and ordered the housekeeper of the White Mansion, Bache Lewis, to personally send people out to purchase some fresh ingredients and prepare a scrumptious dinner.

Britney and Nathan were both elated to see Joanne so concerned about Rowane's visit. Nathan, in particular, for the way he looked at her was much more gentle than before. He had even apologized for troubling her.

After Nathan went off to work, Joanne accompanied Britney to the garden. She read the newspapers to Britney for a moment before realizing that it was time to prepare lunch. Then, she asked Bache, the housekeeper, if he had bought the ingredients for dinner. Bache was incredibly efficient. He had already bought the ingredients and was in the kitchen ordering the chef to arrange them properly. When he saw Joanne come in, he hurried to invite her to have a look.

Joanne checked the ingredients one by one and nodded in satisfaction. She then told the chef how to cook them and reminded him to cook up the feast with utmost sincerity.

At noon, Nathan did not return home to eat lunch. After Joanne accompanied Britney to have lunch, she took Britney to have her usual afternoon nap. After Britney fell asleep, Joanne went back to her room, picked up her phone and made a call. Then, she went downstairs and sat in the gazebo in the garden.

After a while, a young man clad in black walked over and handed Joanne a small box. He said, "Miss White, this is the item that you want."

Joanne took the box and opened it. She asked nervously, "Shawn, are you sure it works?"

A smug smile appeared on Shawn's face, "Don't worry, Miss George, I've tried it on someone, and it absolutely works fine."
