Chapter 1523
Chapter 1523 "It's my honor to serve Mr. Atherton." The bodyguard's toes hurt, but he didn't show any displeasure.
Maybe he didn't care, or he really felt honored to be Edwin's underling.
Joanne was so angry that she turned her head and went upstairs with Tail in her arms.
The doorbell rang.
Lucas pulled the door open and saw Joanne carry Tail in with a sullen face.
"Edwin, your bodyguard hit on me in the car. Whatever you want to talk to me about, settle this first." That was the
first thing Joanne said to Edwin when she entered the door.
Behind Joanne, the bodyguard who was going to report to Edwin paused and felt an angry gaze on him.
As soon as he looked up, he saw Edwin's grim face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"No, I didn't!!" The bodyguard was trembling and hurriedly explained, "Ms. Winters didn't want to see you, so we
could only take her here forcibly. I didn't hit on her..."
Hearing Ms. Winters", Edwin narrowed his eyes unhappily.
Lucas gave the bodyguard a wink. Ms. Winters? This is Mrs. Atherton."
"Mrs.... Mrs. Atherton." The bodyguard swallowed his saliva. Joanne raised her eyebrows and lifted her cuff up to
reveal the red finger marks on her wrist, asking the bodyguard," You mean I'm slandering you?"
The atmosphere in the room became even tenser.
The bodyguard stuttered, no longer as calm as when he was downstairs.
He forced a smile.
"No... No, I didn't mean that. Mrs. Atherton, please don't joke with me."
Joanne turned to Edwin. "What do you say?”
Edwin saw the red marks interspersed with light scars on Joanne's wrist. He knew that she was venting her anger on
the bodyguard, but he did as she wished. Edwin looked askance at the bodyguard coldly and said, "Go and receive
your punishment."
The bodyguard wanted to say something else to beg for mercy, but Lucas covered his mouth and dragged him
away.
"Mr. and Mrs. Atherton, take your time. We're leaving."
Lucas left so fast that he even forgot to take Tail with him. Edwin didn't bother to deal with this kid at the moment.
Joanne deliberately slandered the bodyguard in front of Edwin to take revenge.
The moment she was stared at by Edwin fiercely, her confidence gradually disappeared, and it was replaced by
nervousness.
Tail, whose cheeks were covered with tears just now, saw Edwin's terrifying expression. Her little body shivered, yet

bully you. Don't be afraid, Mommy. I'll protect you."
The inexplicably tense atmosphere was lightened up by Tail's warm words.
Joanne was touched.
She pulled Tail behind her and said to Edwin, "I didn't bring Tail to Sapphire City on purpose, and I didn't mean to
deceive you."
As soon as Joanne’s words came out, Edwin suddenly walked around her and grabbed Tail. The little girl was
suddenly lifted up, and her hands waved in the air. "Oh, put me down! Big bad guy, you're a child trafficker. Let go
of me..."
Tail shouted, but Edwin was unmoved. He strode toward the other side of the suite.
This Presidential Suite had three bedrooms and one living room.
He walked straight to the door of a bedroom and kicked the door in...
"Edwin, what are you going to do to Tail?" Joanne was so shocked that her face paled and her voice changed.
