As she spoke, Amanda pushed Joshua. “It’s time to have a good night with your wife. Don’t waste any time here.”
“Are you truly all right?” Joshua was still worried.
Amanda frowned. “You are a man. Just cut the crap and go!”
Joshua was speechless.
He was truly worried about her
“Okay, I’m taking off now,” he said.
Joshua put his arm on Bonnie’s shoulder and was about to leave, but Bonnie couldn’t rest assured. She tugged his sleeve and said, “Amanda is truly drunk. I’m afraid...”
“Look. Aunt Theresa is watching her.”
“Where is she?”
Bonnie didn’t see Theresa at all.
“She’s behind the pillar on the right side of the hall.” When Joshua saw her, Theresa winked at him and hinting at him to leave. Otherwise, how could he be willing to left Amanda alone here?
Bonnie looked over and sure enough, she also saw Theresa.
“What does Aunt Theresa mean?” Bonnie guessed, “Did she want to bring Amanda and Joan together?”
“I guess so.” Joshua heaved a sigh.
Bonnie felt quite puzzled. “Why? Isn’t it good? Joan is a nice man. He’s also handsome. The most important is his family background. I’m not remarking because he’s rich. Remember last time we went to Thailand to visit Mom? We met Joan there. Mom said his parents loved each other deeply. Joan grew up in a family full of family affectionate and so did Amanda. They both have pure and kind hearts. However, probably Amanda had lost her innocence, but it was all because of Stanford James. She can’t forgive him and be reconciled with him, can she?”
Joshua looked at her.
Bonnie continued, “I don’t have a bias on Stanford James. I admit that he’s capable, but his character... Well, he’s different from Amanda. Firstly, he grew up in a different environment as Amanda did, so they had a huge difference in their characters. Do you think two persons with completely different characters could live together?”
Joshua clicked his tongue and said, “Bonnie.”
“Yes?”
