Chapter 1447
Joanne stifled any sound that might reach the girl's ears, biting her lower lip fiercely. Her eyes bore into Edwin like daggers, accusing him of his shamelessness.
Edwin, not wanting to see her tears or vulnerability, decided to drop the matter of the girl's identity. Swiftly, he scooped Joanne up and placed her back on the bed.
"Alright, alright, I won't fight you for the phone."
Meanwhile, far away in Mourpa, Tail pouted for getting no response from Edwin.
"Are you still there?"
"Did you lie to me?"
"Hmph!"
"Uncle Patrick... Uncle Patrick."
The sound of the little girl's footsteps echoed, followed by the creak of a door opening.
It seemed she was off to find Patrick.
Soon after, Patrick's voice, tinged with a hint of laziness, came through the receiver. "Baby, what's the matter?"
"There's a weird man who keeps asking who I am. It's so strange. Am I being tricked?" Tail cooed, handing the phone
to Patrick.
Cradling Tail in the crook of his arm, Patrick chuckled, "Let me see who is trying to scam you."
Taking the phone, Patrick laughed, "Jo? Did we disturb you?"
Edwin was about to return the phone to Joanne when he heard Patrick's voice.
