Chapter 137


    “It’s okay. It’s okay. Everything will pass.” Jaydon hugged Joanna tightly and patted her hair tofort


    her.


    Joanna sobbed, letting out heart–wrenching cries.


    This was the first time Joanna had been so hysterical in front of Jaydon. She hadpletely lost


    control of her emotions.


    Jaydon’s heart ached even more, and his eyes had also turned red. “Cry if you want to. You’ll feel


    better if you cry.”


    “Mommy…” Irvin was also scared out of his wits and looked on helplessly.


    “Kelly, take Irvin home. Don’t scare him. I’ll stay here with Joann.”


    “Okay, Mr. Grimm!”


    Irvin also started crying. “Mommy, don’t cry. Don’t be sad.”


    Jaydon quicklyforted Irvin. “Irvin, be good. Go back with Miss Kelly first. I’ll stay with Mommy,


    okay?”


    “Okay.” Irvin nodded obediently.


    Kelly then carried Irvin and took a taxi back.


    Jaydon continued hugging Joanna. Some passersby also stopped to watch themotion.


    “It’s alright. No matter what happens, I’ll always be by your side.”


    “Jay, I’m miserable. I can’t take it anymore! Why… why was I born into such a family?” Joanna


    sobbed.


    Jaydon frowned. “I know. I know everything! I’ve told you many times that you don’t have to put up with


    it if you can’t.


    “If you’re willing, I’ll always be by your side.”


    When Joanna heard this, she hugged Jaydon’s waist tightly and buried herself in his arms, crying even


    harder.


    At this moment, Joanna just needed someone tofort her and a shoulder to lean on.


    Joanna knew that Jaydon had never been hers and that she should not have selfishly asked him to be


    exclusive.


    But now, Joanna couldn’t care less. She just wanted to have someone she could rely on.


    In Shaun’s ward, Ingrid was still cursing, “Honey, your daughter said that she wants to make a


    own!


    “Look, it’s our family’s misfortune to have such a daughter!”


    Shaun was so angry that his chest ached, and he breathed heavily, saying, “Enough. We’ll hold a press


    conference next week. I’llpletely cut ties with her this time!


    “Since she doesn’t want to acknowledge me as her father, I don’t want to acknowledge her as my


    daughter anymore!”


    Ingrid gritted her teeth and said, “You should have severed your rtionship with her long ago…”


    Before ingrid could finish her sentence, a shrill cry came from the ward next door. It sounded like


    Roxanne.

    “It’s Roxy. Oh my god, let’s go and take a look!”


    Ingrid panicked and rushed out of the ward to Roxanne’s ward.

    Shaun also hurriedly pulled out the V drip in his arm and ran over barefooted.


    They pushed open the door and saw Roxanne howling like she was possessed, shouting agitale


    “Rory, what’s happening?”


    Seeing that someone was there, Roxanne ran to the staircase window like she was crazy and looked


    like she wanted to jump out.


    Ingrid and Shaun were scared out of their wits. “Roxy, don’t jump. If you jump, what will I do? Ingrid


    cried.


    “Don’te any closer!” Roxanne screamed hysterically, subconsciously looking down at the height of


    the building.


    This was the third floor. If Roxanne jumped, even if she didn’t die, she would probably be crippled.


    Roxanne thought she should stall for time and wait for the people downstairs to finish setting up the


    intable pads before jumping


    Roxanne had been taken advantage of by a few hooligans. Although she felt hurt and tormented, she


    had long been used to messing around with Gavin. The only difference between being touched by one


    or five men was the numbers.


    Although Roxanne felt tormented, it was not to the point where she wanted to die.


    Roxanne was merely taking a gamble.


    Roxanne was betting on how guilty Bruce was feeling


    Roxanne was betting on whether Bruce would sympathize with her and forgive her because of guilt! As


    long as Bruce felt guilty, there was still hope for her to marry into the Everett family.


    Bruce heard themotion and rushed over.


    Seeing this, Bruce’s heart tightened. “Roxy, don’t be rash!”


    “Don’te over! Don’te over!”


    “Roxy, listen to me ande back down! Don’t be rash!” Bruce looked nervous and tried to approach


    her.


    “Don’te over! If you do, I’ll jump!”


    “Alright, I won’t go over. Roxy, don’t be rash. Come down, and we can talk about it.”


    Roxanne covered her head with her hands and shook her head frantically as her tears sshed


    everywhere. “I don’t have the face to live anymore. I don’t want to live anymore! Bruce, I’m no longer


    worthy of you. I hope you and Joanna will be happy together!”


    As Roxanne spoke, she turned as if to climb onto the windowsill.


    “No! Roxy, don’t…” Ingrid and Shaun screamed in fear.


    Bruce rushed forward and grabbed the corner of Roxanne’s shirt. Then, Bruce dragged her off the


    windowsill and hugged Roxanne tightly.


    “Let go of me and let me die…”


    “Roxy, I won’t allow you to jump!”


    Bruce felt guilty and med himself. “I’m sorry I didn’t protect you well. Please give me a chance to


    make it up to you. I won’t turn my back on you!


    “I still love you. Our wedding will be held as scheduled!”
