Chapter 1425
Lucas maintained an appropriate smile towards Joanne.
"Ms. Walters, nice to meet you. I am Mr. Atherton's assistant Lucas. What a coincidence to see you again!"
'See you again? Have we met before?' Joanne thought to herself.
Joanne smiled politely, without revealing her true feelings.
Upon seeing Edwin, she finally understood why Sharon's expression had changed so quickly.
Sharon had been trying to play the innocent victim and even blamed Joanne for pushing and hitting her! Sure enough, Sharon was used to being arrogant and domineering, and now she was pretending to show such a pitiful look.
Feeling the atmosphere was a bit tense, Edwin noticed that Joanne had hardly looked at him since he entered the store.
She had even greeted Lucas!
After a moment of awkward silence, Edwin suppressed his irritation and disgust, and he looked at Sharon. "Aren't you ashamed to keep lying on the ground? Get up!"
Sharon didn't notice Edwin's displeasure at all, for she thought he was angry with Joanne. After all, Edwin always tried to maintain a good image in public.
"Mr. Atherton, it seems that I accidentally twisted my ankle and it hurts a bit. Could you lend me a hand?" Sharon asked.
Edwin smirked, "If that's the case, you can keep lying there."
Sharon was dumbfounded.
She had fallen down, and even had blood on her knee to make the whole thing look more real. Why wouldn't he help her up?
