Chapter 61 Christina’s Schemes
Christina’s heart skipped a beat.
In her eyes, there was a flash of hostility towards Jocelyn.
However, she managed to hide it in front of Rebecca.
Just as Natalie had mentioned at the police station, Christina wouldn’t be fond of anyone who had at
relationship with Cedric.
So, how could she possibly become friends with Isabella?
Although it was unclear how she had distanced herself from Natalie’s words, one thing had to be
acknowledged: Christina was a skilled actress in the Johnson family.
To win the favor of someone as discerning as Rebecca, Christina definitely had some tricks up her sleeve.
After Jocelyn left, Christina cautiously asked, “Mom, have you really looked into Joyce?”
Rebecca remained silent at the question.
“After all, she spent so many years abroad. What exactly is it like out there? Who knows what might have.
happened in such a distant place?”
Over the years, Rebecca would secretly investigate anyone who had spent several years abroad and
expressed an interest in marrying into the Johnson family.
However, she had never investigated Jocelyn.
It was because Jocelyn had harbored affection for Cedric before going abroad. Even now, she still seemed quite infatuated with him.
So, when Christina asked this question, Rebecca’s expression darkened.
After some thought, Rebecca responded, “Although I haven’t looked into her, you know what kind of person she is. She’s gentle, polite, knowledgeable, and sensible. There shouldn’t be anything untoward about her, I suppose.
Christina shook her head and said, “That’s true. But Mom, you know what foreign countries are like. Joyce is gentle and polite, but there are plenty of liberal men with outgoing personalities there. I know you want Ced’s marriage to last long enough so that you’ll have grandchildren, right? So, it’s better to investigate thoroughly

Christina seemed to be completely on Rebecca’s side, giving Rebecca some good reminders and advice.
It made it impossible for Rebecca to find fault with her.
Rebecca closed her eyes for a moment, then nodded.
“You’re right. The environment can change a person significantly. I’ll have someone look into it,” she
conceded.
Speaking of grandchildren, Rebecca felt indignant.
Natalie hadn’t given the Johnson family an heir. She recalled how Natalie had shoved the necklace filled
with ashes on her previously.
Rebecca obviously knew Natalie had been pregnant, but she never told Cedric!
That day, Cedric’s expression had clearly shown his ignorance.
She had never wanted Natalie to have a child. From the moment Cedric and Natalie married, she hadn’t believed they could stay together for long, despite their seven years of dating.
“Well, an investigation is necessary. After all, Cedric is not getting any younger. After his divorce from Natalie, he should be cautious about getting married again,” Rebecca added.
Christina nodded in agreement, her eyes gleaming with shrewdness!
Rebecca also approved of what Christina had said.
After all, Cedric had invested nearly a decade in Natalie, and most people his age already had kids of their own. Seeing several women her age personally taking their grandchildren to school, Rebecca felt
envious.
Wanda brought tea for Rebecca and hesitatingly said, “Madam, if you don’t mind me saying… I think it’ll be good for her to leave this family. She’s planning on divorcing Master Cedric, but she’s spending his money recklessly. It’s absolutely inappropriate.”
Rebecca scowled. “Hmph, she’s got some nerve!”
Speaking of the divorce, Rebecca’s briefly improved mood due to Jocelyn’s intervention quickly soured.
When Natalie married Cedric, she had nothing, just herself. But now, she was demanding a share of the joint assets from the last three years.
Seeing Rebecca’s renewed displeasure towards Natalie, Wanda shot a quick glance at Christina and continued “When she came back earlier, she was driving quite an impressive car. It looked like one of

“That woman is getting more cunning by the day!” Rebecca exclaimed, her anger evident
