Chapter 243


    Ingrid rolled her eyes and said angrily, “Don’t let us in, then! See if we care!”


    “Hubby, let’s go!”


    Shaun had no choice but to start the car again and drive them away from the house.


    In the car, the two of them argued non–stop.


    “What do you think we should do now? What did Roxy do? Some mother you are… it’s all your fault for


    not traching her well!”


    “I didn’t teach her well? Why couldn’t you have disciplined her too? Stop pushing the me onto me!


    “Bruce Everett, that bastard, how dare he detain Roxy! We can’t let this matter lie. I’ll go to his


    company to look for himter!”


    When Shaun heard this, he was even more worried. “Save your breath! Can’t you see Mr. Everett is


    taking us less and less seriously?


    “Even if we go to hispany to cause trouble, it might not be useful!”


    Ingrid tried to keep a lid on her temper and shrieked, “If you think all my solutions are rubbish, why


    don’t youe up with a few yourself?”


    Shaun fumed. “If it were up to me, we should have called the police!”


    “But you refused point–nk to let me! What else can I do but watch Roxy suffer!” Here, Shaun’s heart


    ached so much that he nearly cried.


    Roxanne had been the apple of his eye since she was young. He could not bear to see her suffer even


    the slightest bit.


    Ingrid was so angry that she took two deep breaths. Her eyes darted around slyly. Suddenly, she


    thought of an idea. “Why


    don’t we…


    “Why don’t we… what?”


    Ingrid pursed her lips and shelved her aggressive attitude. “Why don’t you give Joanna a call?


    “Let her tell Mr. Everett that we intend to fetch Roxy back no matter what!”


    When Shaun heard this, his face fell. “This… will this work?”


    He had made it clear several times that he wanted to sever his father–daughter rtionship with


    Joanna!


    Joanna had been hospitalized for many days, but he hadn’t even asked about her. If he recklessly


    asked her for a favor now, there was no way she would agree to it.


    Worse still, she had been the intended target of the hired hitman!


    “You won’t know unless you try. Go on, give it a go!” Ingrid had run out of suggestions too.


    “That wench is currently the hot favorite of Bruce! A single word from her is worth far more than a


    paragraph from anyone


    else.


    “Ask her to speak on Roxy’s behalf. We have this in the bag!” As she finished speaking. Ingrid gritted


    her teeth in anger.


    She awfully resented the fact that she had to beg for a favor from Joann.


    Shaun thought about it. Indeed, there was no better way. “Alright! Let’s go to the hospital now!”


    “Mm…


    Shaun and Ingrid arrived at the hospital half an hourter..


    “Don’te up with me. Wait downstairs!”


    “As if I wanted to follow you!”


    Shaun sighed and bought a random fruit basket at the entrance of the hospital.


    He walked into the hospital with the fruit basket and asked the nurse about the floor Joanna was on.


    He then proceeded straight to that floor and headed directly to the nurse’s counter.


    “Hello, may I ask which ward Joanna Haynes is in?”


    “Sorry, we can’t reveal the patient’s information.” The nurse stared at Shaun with an air of vignce.


    After the previous incident, the entire hospital was on high alert.


    Shaun smiled and exined quickly, “Ma’am, I’m Joanna Haynes’s father. I’m here to visit her.“,


    When the nurse heard this, she sized him up again. “Oh, you’re Ms. Haynes’s father?”


    “Yes, yes, yes. I’m Ms. Haynes’s father. My name is Shaun Haynes!”


    “Alright,e with me!”


    “Thank you!”

    The nurse brought Shaun to the door of Joann’s ward.


    The bodyguard at the door stopped them. “What are you doing?”


    “This is Ms. Haynes’s father. He’s here to visit her.”


    The bodyguard looked at Shaun. After confirming that there was no mistake, he let him in into the


    ward.


    Although Bruce had given the order to not let anyone enter the ward, Shaun was Joann’s father after


    all. They did not dare to stop him.


    Shaun stepped into the ward.


    After two days of recovery, Joanna had finally gotten over the worst of her illness.


    However, she was still extremely weak. Shey on the bed sleeping, hooked up to a venttor.


    “Joann, Daddy is here to see you!”


    Ms. Chain and Nancy recognized Shaun. When they saw him, they greeted him, looking shocked. “Mr.


    Haynes, why are you here?”


    “Oh, I came to see Joann! How’s she doing?”


    “She just fell asleep. Why don’t you wait for a while?”


    “It’s fine, it’s fine. I want to talk to her, that’s all.” Shaun didn’t listen to her and went to the head of the


    bed.


    “Mr. Haynes, she just fell asleep. You should wait…”


    Shaun was preupied with Roxanne’s situation so he had no time to waste. “I have something urgent


    to talk to her about. It won’t take long!”


    Before Ms. Chain could stop him, Shaun called out to the bed, Joann, Joann!”


    Joanna heard the noise and slowly opened her eyes.


    The moment she opened her eyes, Shaun’s chubby face came into view, apanied with a ttering


    smile.


    “Joann, you’re awake!”


    “Dad, why are you here?”


    “Daddy’s here to see you!”


    When Joanna heard this, she was a little puzzled.


    Her father had never given a rat’s ass about her. Why would he think of visiting her suddenly?


    However, she couldn’t help but feel a little touched that he hade.


    “Dad, I’m fine…”


    “Oh, I’m d to hear of that! Thank god you’re fine…”
