Chapter 1011
Joanne bit her lower lip and knelt.
She then looked up at Sylvie, who was sitting on the couch in the middle, and she no longer had the gentleness and
kindness she used to have for her.
Sylvie stared at Joanne coldly and said to Harry, "Harry, tell her what you've found."
Harry stood up from his seat, took out a stack of women's hygiene products from a storage box, and threw it in front of
Joanne with a look of disgust.
'Mom, I used to wonder why a notorious actress would fall in love with Eddy, so I asked the maids to keep an eye on her,
and these are what they found. These aren't what a pregnant woman would use, are they?"

admitted that she wasn't pregnant. She went to the hospital for a gynecological examination. She's been lying to US all
this time!"
The fierce light in Sylvie's eyes intensified at this. She loved Joanne so much and cared so much for the child in her
belly...only for it all to be a lie.
Furious as she was, however, and despite the burning fire in her chest, she truly loved Joanne, so she could not
punish her. She picked up a teacup and threw it on the head of the folk healer.
Thunk! The teacup fell to the ground, leaving a bloody red mark on the forehead of the folk healer.
"Tell me! Is Joanne pregnant?"
The folk healer covered his bleeding forehead tremblingly and nodded guiltily. "Yes, I'm sorry... Madam Joanne..."
"Grandma, you don't have to force the folk healer anymore. I admit that I'm not pregnant. I lied." Seeing the folk
healer's face covered in blood, Joanne was so frightened that her limbs became limp, and she stood up voluntarily.
It was all her fault but not that folk healer, so she did not want him to get hurt.
"Alright, then... Very well. I'm glad you still have a kind heart." There was a hint of anger at being deceived in
Sylvie's eyes. "When Harry told me that you were lying to me, I still didn't believe it. How can a simple and kind girl
like you, a girl who's willing to weave a scarf for me, deceive me? Joanne, you fooled the entire Atherton family..."
Sylvie was always the most respected leader in the Atherton family, but no one expected that Joanne would bribe
the doctor to fabricate such a heinous lie for her and the whole family.
Seeing that Sylvie had misunderstood her, Joanne waved her hands anxiously. "That's not the case, Grandma! I can
explain-"
"Oh, you wish to explain yourself? Alright, I'll give you a chance! You'd better make this lie more perfect." Sylvie
slammed the coffee table to express her anger.

Joanne bit her lip and intertwined her fingers subconsciously.
"At first, I bought pregnancy test kits to test if I'm pregnant or not, and the kits showed two bars, so that's why Edwin
thought that I was pregnant and wanted to marry me. However, the cheap pregnancy test kits were, in fact, expired. I
wasn't pregnant, but Grandma, you thought I was having a baby, and we couldn't bear to make you sad..."
"If you don't want to make me sad, do you think lying to me by hiding the facts and giving me high hopes would make
things better?" Sylvie scolded.
Joanne's body trembled, and she sat back on the ground, tears falling down.
Sylvie's words were like blades that crossed her heart.
She never wanted to lie to her at all!
Just as she wanted to say something, Harry interrupted her mockingly.
