Chapter 729
Joelle spoke with a sweet smile as soon as she entered the house, "Mr. and Mrs. Anderson, I've come to pay you a visit."
Her smile was so cheerful that it looked like a blooming flower in spring. It could brighten one's day up just by looking at
it.
Alice immediately greeted Joelle enthusiastically after seeing her, "Joelle, you've been discharged? Have a seat over
here."
'Thank you, Mrs. Anderson. I just left the hospital today. I'm so sorry for worrying you when I was in the hospital these few
days."
Joelle smiled gently and placed the fruits on the coffee table. Her movements looked just like a gracious lady.
That was also what Alice liked about her the most. Her presence felt very classy, subtle, docile, and respectful.
Only a woman like this could be good enough for her son!

little less affable to
Joelle.
"Joelle, you've become so much skinnier after staying in the hospital. I'm going to buy you some supplements later
and have them sent to your house. You really have to take care of yourself."
Joelle nodded and smiled. "Thank you, Mrs. Anderson!"
'What for? That's what I'm supposed to do anyway."
Alice smiled and apologetically said, "You were only admitted to the hospital because Sean didn't pay enough
attention to you. This is a work- related injury! Sean is always busy, and he even has a girlfriend now. It won't be
appropriate for him to be with you all the time, so I'll be responsible to look after you now."
The expression on Joelle's face changed slightly after she heard what Alice said.
'What does she mean by Sean has a girlfriend now?
'I thought Alice had always been against Sean dating Molly, no? She even tried to get me and Sean together.
'But, why did she acknowledge the fact that Sean is actually dating now?
'Something's not right!'
Joelle felt suspicious, but she did not dare to say anything about it. Instead, she smiled humbly, "Mrs. Anderson, you
don't have to be so nice to me. I knew that it was going to be stressful working with Sean. I wouldn't mind being a
little sick if I can actually help him."
Alice knew what Joelle was thinking as soon as she heard what she said.
'Joelle is only working for Sean because she liked him!'
Alice would definitely be on Joelle's side and told her to spend more time with Sean if this happened earlier.
But, at that time, it became a whole different story.
She already had three grandchildren and a daughter-in-law. Even though the conflict between them was not
resolved yet, there was no place for Joelle anymore in Alice's heart.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSo, she could only smile and convince Joelle pretentiously, "Joelle, after thinking about it, you seem like you're
having a pretty tough time working with Sean. How about I find you another more relaxed job? You're a girl, after
all. There's no need to stress yourself out so much."
Joelle's expression changed after hearing those words.
She could feel that Alice was not treating her the same as she did before anymore.
Alice would always create the opportunity for her to spend more time with Sean!
But now...
'What exactly happened?'
Joelle was puzzled, but she did not dare to ask any further. So, she smiled faintly and said, "Mrs. Anderson, you're right.
But, I have no plans to switch jobs yet. I'll be sure to get enough rest while working."
’Good," Alice replied and stopped speaking.
After all, she was the one who agreed to let Joelle work in Sean's company.
It would not be right for her to kick her out now.
'Whatever!
■Joelle is a smart woman. I believe that she'll give up after realizing that she won't have a chance to be with Sean
anymore!'
