Chapter 1036
"Don't let me see you again!" snarled Edwin before he turned to leave.
As he did, however, he saw a frail old lady walking over with a stick, her back hunched. She was holding a lunch box with
her right hand and made eye contact with Edwin. Tears evidently welled up in her eyes in mere seconds.
’Ed ...Edwin?”
The old lady was Noah's mother. She was just over 50 years old, but because of the chemotherapy and other treatments,
she looked older and weaker than an old lady who was in her late seventies or early eighty. She was so weak that the
wind could blow her away.
"Missus Sinclair?’ No matter how absurd Edwin was, he could not possibly let himself talk badly to an elder suffering from
cancer.
"Mom, why are you here? Didn't I ask you to stay put in the hospital?" Noah looked worried as she rushed over to take
over the bag and helped her mother to sit in the room.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMissus Sinclair shook her head stubbornly. Her eyes were filled with tears. ’ How would I know you nearly got blamed if I
didn't come?"
She grabbed Edwin's shirt with trembling hands. "Edwin, are you here to denounce and condemn Noah? Don't
blame her, please. I was the one who gave her the substance. I don't have many days left, but I just can't bear to
leave her. It just hurts me to see her not getting married or having children before I'm gone... That's why she...
Cough...cough..."
Missus Sinclair broke out into a coughing fit as she sobbed incessantly.
Noah helped her mother wipe off the tears while feeling bad and sorry.
Edwin’s elegant eyebrows furrowed at this as he then looked at Noah. Perhaps there was truly telepathy as Noah,
too, looked at him. That was how they made eye contact.
She bit her lip and looked away helplessly. ' Please leave. Regardless of the reason I drugged your drink, I'm still a
shameless person.”
Edwin felt his temple pulse several times.
During the years he was rebellious and insisted on going abroad to further his study, Missus Sinclair happened to be
around to take care of Noah as her daughter preferred her mother's cooking. Thus, Missus Sinclair also took the
liberty to look after him.
She was kinder and gentler toward him than his own mother ever was.
"I'm going to let this go because of Missus Sinclair. Let's send her back to the hospital for now.”
In the corner where no one would notice, Noah curled up her lips evilly.' See, even Edwin can be soft-hearted.'
On the way to bring Missus Sinclair back to the hospital, Noah turned on the radio. The radio host was broadcasting
the news, and Edwin heard it.
"Lately, rumors of the Best Actor Award winner, Patrick Atherton, being in a relationship with actress Joanne
Winters while filming together has been swirling around. There was a photo of them looking very intimate on the
film set. Currently, there's no response from the production team yet, but some fans discovered Patrick Atherton
had followed Joanne winters in Twidder..."
It was a piece of news about Joanne and Patrick, and it felt quite irritating.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNoah pretended to look shocked and wanted to change the channel.
However, Edwin stopped her from doing so and listened to the entire news broadcast.
"Miss Winters is deeply in love with you. It must be some sort of rumor," remarked Noah.
Deeply in love... Edwin's heart inexplicably stirred upon hearing this.
Noah observed the look on his face. 'He looks gloomy.'
She pursed her lips and continued, "Patrick is your brother. I'm sure that's why they're close with each other, and that's
what makes people misunderstand them."
Patrick was always busy with his filming and other endorsement activities. He had to fly around the world most of the
time, and the only time they would see him was during Christmas. Besides, he was rather 'distant' in the Atherton
family's lineage.
Edwin trusted that Patrick did not know Joanne's real identity. However, Joanne must know who Patrick was, and she
should have been careful!
’D*mn that woman; attracting the attention of other men again.'
Edwin's expression looked vicious. However, he just raised his brow unhappily because Noah was around. "It's normal to
make up stories and gossip in the industry. I thought you should know it better, seeing as you've been working in this
industry for many years."
