Chapter 1191


    Joshua had just fed some porridge to Elizabeth to calm her down and went to sleep. Suddenly, his


    phone rang, he quickly turned it on vibrate, picked up his phone, and quickly walked out of the


    room.


    "Brother!" Joshua answered the phone softly.


    "I just got the news that Bart jumped out of his office and failed to survive." Edwards''s solemn voice


    came from the other side.


    "Dead? Did hemit suicide? Or is someone trying to silence him?" Joshua''s face was filled with


    shock, he never thought that Bart would actually die like this, he still wanted to redeem his sins.


    Eliza had not even met him once, yet he had alreadymitted suicide by jumping off a building.


    "The police determined hemitted suicide. Maybe he was under some kind of threat, so he had


    to die to save this." Edwards also felt that this matter had happened too fast, too bizarre.


    "It would seem that he has no other choice. He knows too many secrets. There are some people


    who do not want him to live." Joshua mocked himself.


    "Regarding this matter, you should talk about it after Elizabeth''s mood is better." After Edwards


    finished speaking, he hung up the phone and went back to his bedroom from the balcony with his


    phone in hand. Under the warm light, he saw his curled up daughter, whose cute sleeping


    appearance was like a peaceful and pure angel.


    Edwards''s heart immediately became gentle. Tomorrow Lily would return home. His daughter would


    stick to him for no reason during these few days. She would have to wait until he returned home


    before she would sleep, and furthermore, she would have to hold onto one of his arms every single


    time before she could fall asleep.


    Edwards could not help but chuckle. The feeling of being needed by his daughter was really good.


    "Daddy, pee!" It was unknown if the sound of the door opening had woken Emma up, or if she felt


    that there was no father by her side, she suddenly woke up. She crawled up and sat down, rubbing


    her eyes as she muttered.


    Edwards immediately walked over, picked his daughter up from the bed and carried her to the


    bathroom.


    "Why isn''t Mummy back yet? If she doesn''te back, I''ll be an adult then!" Emma was still very


    resentful. She had never separated from Mummy for so many days and had always been looking


    forward to her return.


    Edwards looked at her small body. In this period of time, she had not grown much, but had gained a


    lot of weight. She''s as beautiful as a doll.


    After Emma peed herself, she grabbed her pajamas. When she looked up and saw her father


    smiling, she asked in dissatisfaction, "Daddy, what are youughing at?"


    "It''s nothing. I just hope that my little princess grows up a bit slower, so dad can apany you


    more!" Edwards stooped to pick up his daughter and went back to the bedroom. The little guy rolled


    around and found a veryfortable sleeping position to lie down on. Blinking her big eyes, she


    curiously asked: "Grandma told me to grow up faster, but you told me to slow down. Should I grow


    faster or slower?"


    Edwards alsoid down on his back, hugging his daughter tightly, letting her rest her head on his


    arm. "Daddy doesn''t know, as long as you are healthy and safe, everything will be fine!"


    "Oh!" The little guy was in a deep slumber. Not longter, she fell into a dream again.


    Edwards nced to the side and pinched her cheeks lightly with his finger. Only then did he shut his


    eyes and sleep in satisfaction.


    The news of Bartmitting suicide by jumping off the building had not been reported out, as the


    internal organs had already sealed off the information, but it was still possible to not stop the


    rumors, causing everyone to be anxious.

    Bart''s many years in office had brought him a good reputation. It was a pity that in thest few days


    before his death, a scandal about finding a substitute to conceive for his son broke, causing


    everyone to have a whole new level of respect for him. Within a few days, he jumped off the building


    andmitted suicide, and those who were unaware of the situation to think that hemitted


    suicide out of shame.


    Elizabeth stayed at the hospital, worried that there would be more bleeding. However, she stopped


    bleeding after the injection, and her emotions stabilized.


    "When do I have to testify? I''m better now. I can do it at any time." As Elizabeth ate the fruits, she


    turned around and asked Joshua. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She wanted


    Bart to pay for his infidelity earlier.


    "Eliza, there is something that I don''t want to hide from you. Actually, you don''t need to appear in


    court to testify against Bart anymore. He has already ...dead. Last night, he jumped off a building!"


    Joshua slowed down from peeling the fruit, and stared fixedly at Elizabeth with his deep eyes.


    Sure enough, her expression froze. Her beautiful eyes widened as she looked at him in disbelief:


    "He''s dead? Last night?"


    "Yes, jumping off a building in his office. Eliza, would you feel sorry for him?" Joshua looked at her


    pale face, her trembling lips. She did not know what she wanted to ask. Joshua felt sorry for her.


    Elizabeth had mixed feelings, her mind was in a mess and her mind was nk.


    Would she be sad? Probably not. She had always hated him.


    "I haven''t even seen him yet, how did he die? I have a lot of questions I want to ask him."


    Elizabeth''s eyes immediately reddened, and she tried her best to hold back her tears, but the tears


    kept flowing.


    "Don’t ask. No matter what you want to ask him, he has already paid the price for his actions.


    Moreover, my big brother said, the one who forced him to die was not you, but himself, so his death


    must be in exchange for the life of his son. In the end, he is willing to sacrifice his life for his son, but


    is not willing to be responsible for his daughter. He deserved it." Joshua stretched out his hand to


    hold onto the small hand she was tightly pinching, consoling her with a low and deep voice.


    Elizabeth was still unable to speak for a long time. She couldn''t tell what she felt inside.


    Perhaps she was sad that she had not met him and asked him why he had abandoned her.


    "Eliza, the doctor said that you can''t get too excited, it''s not good for the fetus. You have to control


    your emotions, in fact, I wanted to hide it from you, but I won''t be able to hide it sooner orter."


    Joshua was really worried for her. Seeing her keep her head down without saying a word, he was


    worried that her emotions would copse and affect her fetus.


    Elizabethughed self - deprecatingly, "I''m fine. In my heart, my father is someone else. It''s not him.


    His death won’t affect me.”


    Elizabeth had an adopted father before, and he treated her as if she were his own. It was just that


    her life was not good, and he only doted on her for a few years before passing away. At that time,


    Elizabeth cried for months, thinking he was her own father.


    "Alright, as long as you can think it through!" Joshua reached out and caressed her cheeks.


    Patty Jones sat in the living room, hearing Lily Jones and her father making a ruckus, she angrily


    ran downstairs and roared: "What are you guys arguing about? Are you going to continue living this


    life? Wasn''t it to save your life that my father betrayed Elizabeth?"


    Lily Jones covered her face, she could not cry, but her heart was in pain.


    Barry scolded his daughter, "Speak less. You''re not allowed to speak to Lily like this ever again."


    Although Barry didn''t like Elizabeth, he still had a rtionship with Lily. This time, he was deeply


    aware of how inhumane it was to exchange life with Elizabeth.
