Chapter 715
That nightgown cost nearly 10000 dollars!
However, that gown was not custom-made due to the lack of time. Still, she was promised to have a tailored nightgown in the future.
"Of course, I also want to sleep with Quinn and listen to stories about your childhood." Granny Atherton lovingly pulled Quinn's arm with her wrinkled hands as Quinn's smile blossomed.
Kelly could not help blinking, suspecting that she had misheard Granny Atherton earlier. 'Isn't Quinn Miss Atherton?'
Shortly, the appraisal report of the bracelet was released.
Unlike the lovely ambiance that Granny Atherton and Quinn shared in the bedroom, downstairs, Harry was scolding Edwin for not taking his marriage seriously, let alone the fact that another granddaughter in the Atherton family suddenly emerged, posing as a threat to their property.
"Are you done?" Edwin raised his eyelids lazily after Harry had done growling.
"You—" Harry was so angry about Edwin's frivolous manner that his heart beat violently.
Edwin then put his leg down, calmly bade Uncle Harry 'good night ', asked the servant to tell Granny Atherton that he was leaving, and drove away from Atherton Manor.
It was late in the night when he returned to shoal villa, but coincidentally, Joanne had just come back from recording a show not long ago.
She had been worrying about Edwin banning her from working on the excuse that she was 'pregnant'.
In the end, Edwin did not interfere with her work but instead introduced her to a lot of high-status people, letting her choose whatever role she wanted.
These included trending TV drama productions, famous movie stars to support her acting, and top variety shows.
Joanne was tempted by all these offers, yet she rejected most of them in fear of being the topic of gossip among the fans which would, later on, cause her trouble.
In the end, she chose the most inconspicuous female lead in a web drama. The filming of the drama was simple, fast, stressless, and, most importantly, would not have many viewers.
What Joanne wanted was to be down-to-earth.
Edwin could feel his irritation rising to his chest upon knowing this, but he then felt that it was not a bad idea after all. she could perfunctorily act for the online drama, leaving more time for her to take care of her body and the baby in her womb.
When Joanne heard that Edwin had gone to Atherton Manor, she sighed in relief.
The marriage between her and Edwin was too strange. Maybe he just wanted to tie her to him and get revenge on her eventually. She was impulsive when she promised to get married.
All she asked, for the time being, was Edwin never to come back so they would never have to share a room.
However, her relief did not last long as the servant said that Edwin had returned, she was afraid that he would let her fulfill her contractual obligations as a wife.
