A Vengeful Bride novel Chapter 334

"Okay, don't be too tired. You have to rest now." Edward looked at Ashley, pinched her palm and said.

"Okay, I see." Ashley looked at Edward helplessly and said.

Edward was like an alarm clock. He urged Ashley to go to bed everyday on time.

"Joanna, come here. Let's have a talk." After Edward and Abigail left, Ashley looked at Joanna whose face was pale and said.

Looking at Ashley, Joanna's heart suddenly trembled.

She clenched her fists tightly and looked at Ashley nervously.

"Don't be nervous. I just want to confirm something." Seeing Joanna's anxious expression, Ashley smiled and said.

Joanna came to senses and followed Ashley to the living room.

After sitting down in the living room, Ashley held Joanna's cold hand, stared at her pale face with deep eyes and said, "Joanna, tell me, is the child in your belly Ashe's?"

The child in her belly?

Had Ashley known that she was pregnant? Joanna's fingers suddenly became stiff. When she was about to get rid of Ashley's hand, Ashley grabbed her hand more and more tightly.

"I am a mother. Naturally, I know what is the reaction of pregnancy. Tell me, is Ashe your child's father?"

Since Joanna liked Cedric so much, Ashley was sure that her child is Cedric's.

"Yes." In the face of Ashley, Joanna couldn't say anything to cheat her.

She bit her lips, looked at Ashley, nodded heavily and continued to say, "Madam, I... will leave here with this child. I won't affect the reputation of the Xis."

"What nonsense are you talking about? I didn't ask you to leave with this child." Joanna's words made Ashley have a headache.

"If Cedric knows that I am pregnant, he will definitely ask me to have an abortion. I must... protect my child."

After knowing that she was pregnant, Joanna had already made up her mind to leave Beijing with her child. She wanted to raise the child alone.

"I'll ask Ashe to be responsible for you and your child."

Looking at Joanna's determined look, Ashley sighed.

"No."

When Joanna heard this, she was not happy at all. She was fearful and anxious. "Madam, please, don't tell Cedric that I'm pregnant." "Why?"

Ashley became more worried when she saw how anxious Joanna was.

"I don't want to make things difficult for Cedric. I beg you, madam, I will leave with my child. I don't deserve Cedric."

Joanna grabbed Ashley's hand forcefully and said to her with tears.

"Joanna, it's not your fault."

"It's my fault. When I was Cedric's mistress, that doctor raped me, but I didn't accuse him because I was too cowardly. Then he threatened me with Janet's medical expenses in order to have sex with me. Cedric treats me coldly because I'm cheap. I... don't want him to hate me more and more."

Joanna's words made Ashley speechless.

She couldn't say a word. In the final analysis, the fate was playing tricks on Joanna.

She had no way to control Cedric's feelings and could not force him to accept Joanna. Their love depended on themselves.

"So, what about this child?"

"I have decided to resign. I will leave Beijing. If you like this child, I will send you his photos regularly. I want to leave here with the child and live an ordinary life."

"Can you live by yourself?"

Ashley respected Joanna's decision. No matter what, Joanna should decide her life on her own. "Yes, madam, please don't force me. If Cedric knows that I'm pregnant, my child... will definitely die. My child is my only hope. I just want to protect my child."

"Well, since this is what you want, I respect you."

Ashley looked at Joanna and hugged her slender body with concern.

"Thank you, madam." Joanna burst into tears because Ashley respected her decision.

Looking at the tears on Joanna's face, Ashley said with distress, "I'm sorry. I apologize to you for Ashe."

"I... It's okay. I like Cedric. I'm willing to leave here. No matter how Cedric treats me, I won't blame him."

"You are so foolish."

When Ashley heard Joanna's words, she felt more and more guilty for Joanna.
