Chapter 1229
He sat alone for a while. Then he opened the second drawer on the right with a key...
When he pulled the drawer, a framed photo came into view.
It was a photo of him and Joanne...
At that time, Joanne was filming on the set, and Edwin went to visit her.
Very afraid of getting into trouble, Joanne pretended not to know him. Even when others were infatuated with him,
she deliberately said bad things about him, as if she had loathed him and had had nothing to do with him.
He was so angry that he pulled her toward an old locust tree when nobody was watching...
He pressed her against the tree.
Unexpectedly, a reporter in the corner secretly took a photo of them, thinking that he had captured something
sensational.
Later, Edwin found the reporter and bought the photo at a high price. As he discovered that the photo looked very
good, he developed it. This was probably one of the few photos in which he and Joanne were with each other

Edwin smiled self-mockingly, rubbing the photo...
In the photo, Joanne lowered her head shyly with pink ears. Her lips were as red as rose petals, and her teeth were
as white as ivory. She was cute and touching.
'She's such a cruel woman.
'While I was dying in the hospital, she turned a blind eye and left with Patrick.'
At the thought of this, Edwin's eyes glittered with fury, and he snapped the framed photo backward on the table!
It was very quiet in the office.
There was no more Joanne's chattering voice in the room. No one pointed at Edwin's nose and accused him of
behaving like a tyrant.
Feeling like his world was deserted, Edwin smoked a few cigarettes in a row.
The cigarette butts were neatly arranged by him in the ashtray.
For a long time, the office was filled with the choking smoke.
He reopened the laptop and switched to the webpage where Catelyn was looking for her daughter with high
rewards.
When Catelyn's daughter disappeared in Fidelysia, she said in a worldwide live stream that whoever could provide
her daughter's whereabouts would be rewarded with ten million dollars. Brayion asked someone to especially build
a website where people all over the world could offer
information...
Edwin stared at the webpage without blinking.
He examined people's words again and again, hoping to find something related to Joanne.
Even though her best friend's daughter went missing and her best friend made a live stream to look for her
daughter, Joanne, who couldn't bear to see Catelyn feel sad, didn't show up...
It seemed that Joanne had vanished.
After leaving Jaslene's clinic, Catelyn let out a long sigh of relief.
Despite having guessed that someone must have trapped Joanne, Catelyn was more certain about what to do next
after Jaslene confirmed her guess.
'But where on earth is Joanne now?’
On the way back, Eason told Catelyn that Edwin had arranged for people to besiege and catch Ezekiel.
Ezekiel was in prison for half a year. When he was released, he had lost everything.

He was like a rat crossing the street, and everyone wanted to beat him.
While he went shopping, someone threw a flowerpot at him for no reason. Though allergic to peanut butter, he still
found it in his meal. Even when he took a bath and sauna, someone pressed his head into the water and prevented
him from raising his head.
A string of incidents happened within just one day, and he was injured all over.
The bodyguards watching Ezekiel reported that Ezekiel, who had become paranoiac, viewed everyone as a killer.
"If he continues to be so suspicious, he will make a big mistake sooner or later," Eason commented.
Catelyn sneered, but she didn't feel happy. "I've shown mercy to him! Without him, my mother and I wouldn't have
been separated for so many years. I wouldn't have regarded him as my father. What I do to him now can't make up
for the harm he did to my mother..." After a pause, Catelyn said to Eason, "Don't play him to death. I have some
questions to ask him."
"Yes, Mrs. Mason. Though there are many arrangements in store for him, I won’t let him die," Eason replied.
Knowing what Catelyn wanted to ask Ezekiel, Cedrick narrowed his eyes...
Cedrick learned what Ezekiel had done to Summer back then.
Ezekiel was such a bastard. He not only did those things to Summer, but also took videos and photos...
