Martha's eyes immediately reddened, "Are you still blaming me for not being there for you all these years? I..."
She looked into Joe's eyes earnestly, "If I had recovered my memory earlier, I would've come back to you right away. What mother doesn't love her own child?"
Her tone was sincere, sure to move anyone unaware of the situation.
But how could Joe allow her to get close to Ben and Anna when he still has doubts about her and Hope?
He spoke with a slight frown on his face, "We are planning to move soon, and Grandpa will be living with us. Can you be assured?"
Martha was choked for a moment.
Even if she acted like a mother in front of Joe, she still couldn't compare to Sir Smith.
Martha stopped her sobbing awkwardly, "You guys are living so well here; why do you suddenly want to move?"
"Our marital house is at the manor on Andrew Road; I think moving there might help her remember more," Joe said lightly.
"A manor?" Martha widened her eyes slightly but quickly masked her composure.
If Joe had not been watching her expression closely, he might not have noticed it at all.
Is Martha short of money?
Joe lowered his eyes, concealing his deep thoughts, "It was personally designed by Charlotte; it's very meaningful to both of us."
He didn't intend to say more to Martha and casually changed the subject.
He thought Martha would give up, but she had the driver bring in some toys, "I brought some toys for the children. Where are they?"
Martha looked around but didn't see Ben and Anna.
"Grandpa and Old Mr. Clinton took them abroad to attend an auction; they won't be home for a few days," Joe said indifferently.
Knowing that Martha had ulterior motives, he naturally wouldn't give her a chance to get close to the children.
