    Joanne''s eyes narrowed with fury, as if she could bore holes into him with her gaze alone, yearning to


    douse his face with a full ss of water.


    In this peculiar atmosphere, the doctor finally finished tending to all her injuries. Heaving a sigh of relief,


    he interjected, "You''re so devoted to your girlfriend, Mr.


    Atherton, and Miss, you''re truly fortunate."


    Edwin appeared to have a wife in name only, but since he had kissed this woman, it seemed fitting to


    call her his girlfriend.


    Joanne immediately countered, her voiceced with annoyance, "Doctor, you''re mistaken. I don''t even


    know him."


    "Uh..." Hadn''t they just shared a kiss?


    The doctor couldn’t quite grasp theplexities of modern youth.


    Edwin, however, was quite pleased with the doctor''s assumption. "You''re not wrong. She is my


    girlfriend. She is just acting up." With that, he wrapped an arm around Joanne''s shoulder and asked,


    "Are you still thirsty?"


    "Get lost!" Joanne didn''t bother hiding her revulsion.


    Edwin shrugged at the doctor. "I’ve spoiled her too much."


    Joanne was speechless.


    Her foot injury required a few days of hospitalization. Edwin escorted her to the special ward but ran


    across Teresa.


    Ever since Teresa had openly expressed her care for Edwin in front of Sharon at the mall, Sharon had


    taken a strong dislike to her and covertly undermined her.novel.xo


    Many people in their circle knew that Sharon had a fight with Joanna, and then Edwin had issued an


    order to cklist the cast of the ''Story in Rosch''. This led many who were unaware of the truth to


    believe that Edwin had done it for Sharon''s sake.


    Swollen with pride, Sharon hinted at making things difficult for Teresa, causing several big production


    teams who had been considering Teresa to back away in fear.


    Unnerved about it, Teresa didn''t expect to run into Edwin at the hospital.


    But the woman in his arms...


    "What''s wrong with Miss Walters?" Teresa rushed over to show her concern, but her eyes kept darting


    to Joanna''s face. It was really Joanna! But Mr. Atherton had fought with Joanna at the mall earlier,


    hadn''t he?


    Joanne felt uneasy under Teresa''s inquisitive yet prating gaze. She buried her face in Edwin''s


    arms but felt his warm chest.


    Edwin was delighted by her gesture.


    And he got more tolerant toward Teresa.


    "She sprained her ankle. What brings you here to the hospital?"


    Teresa was ttered that Edwin remembered her. She quickly smiled and said, "I have a slight cold, so


    I came to get some medicine. Miss Walters will need some good rest and prevent it from developing


    into a chronic disease."


    Edwin curled his lips. "I''ll make sure of it."


    Seeing that the two were still chatting, Joanne pursed her lips and stopped hiding. She squirmed in


    Edwin''s arms, tugged at the hem of his clothes, and tried to hop down the corridor. Edwin pressed her


    head into his arms, bid farewell to Teresa, and walked away.


    Teresa was dumbfounded. She couldn''t believe it was true.


    Edwin seemed to be pampering Joanna.


    Dazed for a moment, she quickly took out her phone, snapped some pictures, and sent them to


    Sharon, who was getting a facial at a beauty salon.

    She didn''t care if she could win over Mr. Atherton. Sharon was the first person she had to please right


    now.


    She couldn''t let that fool ruin her career.


    Not long after, Sharon called her.


    Teresa''s face showed a hint of disdain. It seemed that


    Sharon''s position in Edwin''s heart was not so high. She answered the phone slowly but asked


    anxiously, "Sharon? Did you see the photo I sent you?"
