Chapter 985
Edwin leaned over to kiss Joanne's lips again when all of a sudden, his phone screen lit up again,
buzzing and vibrating.
It was an unsaved number. Several incoming calls were received over the period.
Alas, they were immersed in intimacy and did not notice this whatsoever.
The effect of the antiemetics was a bit better than Catelyn expected. In the beginning, she infused two
bottles of nutrient solution, and her mood turned better. She also regained some of her energy and was
able to eat.
The doctor said that the severe morning sickness was related to her mood.
Thus, for the sake of the child, she must be strong.
Even if she could not eat, she had to force herself to. While she could only have soup and soft food

Joanne, too, felt relieved as Catelyn’s condition got better.
"Cat, you should eat more." Joanne kept buying food for Catelyn and handed another sandwich to her.
That would be the third sandwich if Catelyn ate it, and everyone at the dining table was looking at them.
Joanne scratched her head belatedly and smiled awkwardly at everyone.' Don't you guys think Cat has lost so much
weight after coming back? I want her to eat more to keep her healthy."
Edwin raised his eyebrows, his face full of contempt. "Can you take care of your image next time you eat? You're a
celebrity."
She grabbed the sandwich with her hand when Edwin spoke, which was unhygienic, but she did not listen to what he
said.
Joanne curled her lips and confidently refuted, "Well, you've seen worse, haven't you? It's too late to dislike me now.
Besides, you can choose to ignore me, and I didn't force you to look at me."
She was a female celebrity after all, and there were paparazzi out there who made money by taking pictures of
her. Edwin should be grateful to see her at such a close distance for free, yet he kept mocking her.
'Men are pigs.'
The more Joanne thought about it, the more annoyed she became.
Thinking that he hated her licking her fingers, she deliberately licked her lips in front of him and made a provocative
sound.
Edwin’s face instantly soured at this. He knew she did it on purpose.
It was rare for Kelly to see Edwin suffer. Witnessing that, she covered her mouth and snickered. "Looks like the
relationship between Master Edwin and Madam Joanne is great."
Joanne repudiated that from the bottom of her heart. 'I don't want to be ' great' with that disgusting man.'
Sylvie, who was sitting in the middle seat, looked at Joanne for a while, then at Catelyn, and said, "Cat, when you
went to the hospital for a gastroenterological examination last time, did the doctor say anything else? I see that you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmvomited so much a few days ago, and now you're eating so much. You look pregnant."
Her utterance stunned everyone.
Sure enough, an old ox made a straight furrow.
Deep down, Joanne was impressed by Sylvie's judgment.
The gazes of the others turned to Catelyn.
Catelyn tried to act dumb by quibbling, "The examination report had it that I'm not pregnant,
Grandma. I know you wanted another great-grandchild badly. Don't worry; I'll tell you if I am
pregnant."
When she was alone in the room before, she had already thought of countless possible scenes of her
secret being discovered by Cedrick, so she had prepared excuses to deal with certain situations.
She just did not expect the first person to suspect her abortion was not Cedrick but her grandmother
instead.
Joanne's nerves became frazzled in an instant, and she voiced hoarsely, ’ That's, Grandma. Cat gave
birth to twins a few years ago and didn't get a good rest since then, so she wouldn't be pregnant so
soon."
'It's a good thing not to be pregnant...'
