Chapter 801
Joanna’s brow furrowed even more when she heard this. “How can it be handled like that?
“It’s not a good way to leave the children entirely in the care of the servants when their parents are not
around.”
Joanna understood this point very well.
It was best for children to be with their parents. Whether it was their father or mother, they had to at
least have a rtive to look after them.
Servants would only take care of the children’s basic needs, but they would not invest any other
emotions in them.
She had a female friend who had experienced this before. Because of her busy work, she left her child
entirely to the care of
a servant.
As a result…
The child kept falling sick, and during a hospital check-up, they discovered that the child had multiple
needles stuck in the abdomen.
Some of the servants might seem gentle and kind on the surface, but secretly, who knew what kind of
resentment they might have toward their employers?
After suffering some frustration, they might end up taking it out on the child.
That was why the surveince cameras were installed in every corner of the Everett mansion.
There were several caretakers looking after the children, and they never allowed a child to be alone
with a single caretaker to prevent any simr incidents from happening.
“Well, I also wish I could, but now… the situation does not allow it.” Jaydon Grimm sighed sadly.
As a grown man, he had no idea how to take care of children..
Although he loved his daughter dearly, he did not know how to take care of her at all and had not fully
embraced the role of a father yet.
Joanna was worried about Patricia and suggested. “Bring the child back! Or… I can take care of her for
you.”
“You’ll take care of her?” Jaydon’s eyes sparkled as he looked at Joanna.
“Since I’m already taking care of four children, adding one more won’t be a problem.”
With so many servants in the Everett family, taking care of one more child would bepletely
manageable.
“Forget it. I don’t want to cause you any trouble.”
“It won’t be a trouble, why would it be?
“Rest assured, I’ll take care of her as if she were my own daughter. It’s not suitable to leave such a
young child all alone in Surbano.”
“Forget it. Let’s talk about itter.”
Joanna remained silent, took a sip of her coffee, and gazed firmly at Jaydon.
“Have something to eat!”
After waiting for a while, Jaydon had yet to ask for her help.
“Jay, don’t you have something to tell me?” Joanna took the initiative to ask.
She knew Jaydon’s personality well and understood that he was hesitant to speak up.
“Well, you have be more beautiful now. Indeed, your taste is quite good,” said Jaydon, his heart
subconsciously skipping a beat.
Although he loved Joanna, he knew that Bruce Everett loved her
Joanna’s decision to be with Bruce was the right one.
even more.
If she had chosen him, their life might not have been as good as it was now.
Joanna was speechless. A hint of mncholy appeared on her face.
It was better not to let too many people know that Br

a faint tone.
Bruce transferred more than 14 billion dors in assets to Joanna, and most of his properties were still
being transferred to
her name. This was enough to prove how much Bruce loved her.
Jaydon thought to himself. “If she had chosen me, I would not have had the ability to give her that
much money.”
“Jay… there are some things that are hard to put into words. Joanna sighed with a touch of sadness as
she replied.
“Some things are just superficial, and only we know the sadness inside. What others see is always just
the surface.”
Jaydon listened attentively and asked with concern, “What’s wrong? Is he treating you badly?”
Joanna’s eyes welled. up with tears, and her heart felt as though it were being pricked with needles.
“He… he treats me quite
well.”
“I can tell.” Jaydon smiled.
Joanna’s eyes drooped and tears instantly overflowed her eyes.
“What’s wrong? Did he do something to let you down?” Jaydon asked, concerned about her reaction.
For a man like Bruce, it was quite normal for him to date more than one woman at the same time.
He could love Joanna and other women simultaneously.
After all, there were rumors about him dating some biologist and getting caught in a hotel some time
ago.
“No!”
“Then why do you look so upset?”
Joanna did not know how to respond.
“Never mind, forget about me. Tell me about yourself!
“How have you beentely? I saw the news about your brother inheriting the Grimm Group and being
in awsuit with you and your siblings.
“What’s going on? The situation does not seem good.”
Upon listening to this, Jaydon’s eyes darkened, and a hint of coldness appeared on his face.
He had never expected Cassius Grimm to be so ruthless.
It was in vain that he had always respected him, treating him like his own big brother.
Even when their father wanted him to take over the Grimm Group, he considered his brother’s feelings
and did not agree outright.
But who would have thought that he treated Cassius as his brother, but Cassius did not see him as a
sibling? Especially after their father’s passing, Cassius revealed his true colors, showing no
consideration for anyone’s feelings.
Not only did he take the majority of their father’s inheritance, but he also aimed to reim and
redistribute the assets owned by their siblings.
How could this be?
Those assets were divided among them by their father when he was alive.
Now, Cassius had even set his sights on these smaller sums of money?
It was truly disheartening even to think about it.
“Jay, are you in some kind of trouble?
This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.
“If you need any help, just ask..
“While I might not be able to offer much, I do have some funds that you can use anytime if you need
it.”
Upon hearing this, Jaydon felt a pang of emotion and looked at Joanna. “Joann, I really don’t need it.”
In the past, Jaydon had selflessly helped her, and now, asking her for money was something he could
not bring himself to do.
Joanna had already guessed Jaydon’s difficult situation and sighed. “Jay, you don’t need to be so polite
to me. There’s no need to keep a distance between us.
“If it weren’t for you, I might not have been able to hold on for this long. You helped me when I was in
need.
“Now that you’re facing difficulties, it’s only right for me to help you.”
Jaydon took a deep breath and said, “Joann, I am indeed facing some difficulties now. I need some
funds to get through…”
Before he could finish speaking, Joanna had already opened her bag and taken out a ck card,
handing it to him.
“Take it first.”
Seeing this, Jaydon’s face showed astonishment.
The ck card had no spending limit, which meant he could spend over 20 million dors or even
hundreds of million dors from it.
“The password is your birthday. Take it!
“I know you probably need money urgently, so don’t be polite with me.”
“Joann, this… if Bruce finds out, he might get really angry. It’s better to forget about it,” said Jaydon,
quickly pushing the card
back to her.
“It’s alright. This is my own money, and I can decide how to use it.”
“Joann, I’m afraid that if I lose thewsuit, I might not have the money to pay you back.”
“Well, if that’s really the case, then you don’t have to repay me.”
Jaydon felt even more moved by her response.
He held back his tears, but they could not help but fall.
He had never expected this.
When he needed help the most, it would be Joanna who stepped up to help him.
Trembling, Jaydon picked up the card. “Thank you, Joann.”
Joanna smiled at him. “Didn’t we agree before not to act like an outsider to each other and not to say
thank you?
“By the way, this is Mr. Jameson’s business card. I’ll talk to himter, and you can ask him for help with
thewsuit.”
Mr. Jameson was very skilled in the field, and he was also Bruce’s personalwyer.
With him handling thewsuit, the chances of winning would be much higher.
“Joann… thank you so much.”
“Here we go again. You don’t have to be so polite to me.
“Alright, I should go now.
