Chapter 31
Fortunately, Davian and Irvin were only slightly injured. They were all right after the doctors sterilized
their wounds and applied some ointment.
And Jaydon was also not badly hurt. He just needed to be simply bandaged,
“Joann, if you don’t want to send them abroad, how about sending them to Venturas?
They’ll be in kindergarten soon. There is an exclusive private kindergarten there.”
“You can send them there to study. Venturas is also close to Greyport. It’s only an hour away by boat,
and you can visit them every week.”
“Let them take shelter for some time. After Bruce and Roxanne get married, he will probably forget it
and won’t disturb you.”
Pausing for a while, Jaydon continued, “Lilia still has not been exposed. You don’t need to worry. about
her. Just let her stay by your side.”
Hearing that, Joanna looked at him with hesitation.
Greyport and Venturas were separated only by a sea.
Although Venturas was small, it was the only city in the country where gambling was allowed.
The Grimm family was one of the top three gambling tycoons in Venturas.
“But it’s too close. I’m afraid it will be easy for Bruce to find them.”
Jaydon smiled, gently put his arm around her shoulder, and comforted her, “It doesn’t matter. I can
send someone to protect them. Don’t worry.
Besides, you can tell him the children are abroad. When things calm down, you can bring them back.”
“All right…”
“Then I’m gonna arrange it.”
“Okay, thank you,” Joanna said.
“Mommy, where are we going?”
“You are old enough to go to kindergarten. Soon, you will be a big boy and begin to study.”
“We get it,” the kid answered.
The next day.
Jaydon drove Joanna and the two little boys to the dock to take a boat.
They prepared to take them to Venturas.
Roxanne also went home tiredly.
As usual, Gavin took her to the city on a motorcycle.
Then she would take a taxi to the designated place and ask the driver to pick her up.
The main reason they went to all this trouble was to keep it secret.
She was also afraid of being photographed with Gavin.
The motorcycle just drove past Jaydon’s car.
Coincidentally, Joanna was looking out of the window.
Suddenly, she saw the woman on the motorcycle, who resembled Roxanne very much from the
back.
Although the woman was wearing a helmet, her figure looked exactly like Roxanne’s.
“Well, look at that person. Is that Roxanne?”
Jaydon was driving. He slammed on the brake and glanced in the rear–view mirror. “Looks a bit like her
from the back.”
They couldn’t see the person clearly.
But just then, the motorcycle suddenly stopped.
Gavin got off, and Roxanne followed.
They took off the helmets. Gavin kissed Roxanne’s cheek again and again. Obviously, he was intimate
with her.
Now, Joanna could recognize the woman. It was exactly Roxanne.
It looked like she had an affair with this man.
“Oh, sure enough, it’s Roxanne. Bruce is really a cuckold,” Jaydon scoffed.
Joanna frowned and said, “Maybe they are just friends…”
Jaydon sneered, “Joann, you don’t understand men.
In this case, they couldn’t be just friends…”
Jaydon stopped short in the middle of the sentence.
He couldn’t show his true nature.
“Take a photo and send it to Bruce or the media.”
Hearing that, Joanna hurriedly stopped him and said, “No.
Don’t do this.”
“Why?”
“I don’t want to hurt her.”
Joanna knew that if the photo was sent to the media, Roxanne’s life would be ruined.
She knew the feelings of being cyberbullied. That was terrible.
“Joann, you don’t want to hurt her, but she can hurt you.”
Joanna let out a sigh, “Anyway, she is my sister.
Six years ago, she failed to marry Bruce.
It was my fault.
I owe her. So I can cut her some slack. I hope she can conduct herself well.”
“Alright. It’s up to you.”
Jaydon stepped on the gas pedal again, and the car sped away.
At Haynes’s house.
After some twists and turns, Roxanne finally returned home with a tired body.
She stayed out all night yesterday.
Because of Gavin, her legs were still trembling now.
Ingrid was having breakfast. Seeing her daughter was back, she walked over with a smile. “Roxy, you
finally come back.”
Roxanne said in a languid voice, “Mom, I’m gonna go upstairs and take a shower first.”
Ingrid grinned and asked, “Tell mom why you stayed out last night. Did you sleep with Mr. Everett?”
Hearing that, Roxanne looked away in dismay. “Mom, don’t be gossipy. I’ll take a shower first.”
“Fine, fine. Go ahead.
You are finally enlightened, my silly daughter. I told you that you should make the first move when you
have to.”
Before Ingrid finished speaking, Roxanne had run upstairs.
Ingrid saw her daughter was in low spirits. Her legs were weak, and they couldn’t even come together.
There were also hickeys on her neck. Obviously, she’d had a wild night.
But Ingrid was very happy because she thought Roxanne had spent the night with Bruce.
She would be furious if she knew her daughter was sleeping with a poor guy for the whole night.
Soon, the children were ready for kindergarten.
All the admission procedures were also in order.
The students in this kindergarten were all from rich families.
Apart from money, you also need connections to go to this kindergarten.
Of course, everything here was top–end, and the tuition cost hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.
The secrecy was also very excellent. Even the paparazzi couldn’t get information on the kids.
After settling Davian and Irvin down, Joanna felt more reassured.
She returned to Greyport the same day.
Venturas was the Grimm family’s place. She thought Bruce wouldn’t find there too soon. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Joanna went home.
It was getting late. It was already nine o’clock at night.
Without the two little guys, the big house suddenly became quiet.
After Joanna had changed her clothes and disinfected her whole body, she went to see her daughter.
Lilia was lying quietly on her pink bed.
Because she didn’t see the sun all year round, her skin was stunningly pale.
“Lilia, mommy is back.”
Lilia smiled sweetly at Joanna. “Mommy, where are my brothers?”
Joanna gently brushed her daughter’s soft hair. “Mommy sent them to kindergarten. They are big boys.
It’s time for them to study.”
“When can I study?”
Hearing that, Joanna felt more sorry. She explained patiently, “My dear Lilia, when you get well, you
can study like your brothers.”
“I see!”
“It is time to take medicine, dear.”
Joanna took out a few pills and a variety of vitamin tablets.
“Yes.” Lilia was obedient and was used to taking pills.
She never cried, no matter how bitter the medicine was.
“Good night.
Mommy is with you here.”
“That’s great!”
Lilia smiled sweetly and closed her
eyes.
Her eyelashes were long, and her eyes looked like Joanna’s.
She looked like a cute little doll when she was sleeping.
It was a great pity that such a lovely girl was disabled.
She was not able to walk and couldn’t even stand
