Chapter 1441
Joanne was taken to have an X-ray. Her sprained ankle was caught in the door again. Although it did not hurt her
bone, it severely injured her ankle. And her fair ankle was covered in bruises. It looked awful. She had to take some
time to recover.
As the doctor bandaged her, she couldn't help but huff as he wrapped her ankle in gauze. Her forehead was
covered with sweat.
She clenched her teeth and didn't make a sound.
Edwin remembered Joanne couldn’t bear the slightest bit of pain in the past.nvëlx.o

she didn't make a sound. What had happened to her in the past four years? What had changed her so drastically?
Edwin put his arm to her mouth and said, "You can bite my arm if you can't stand the pain.”
Joanne snorted, "Get away from me. You're dirty."
Edwin's hand paused in the air, and his eyes darkened. His handsome face clouded over, but he wasn't angry. He
went to the bathroom and washed his arm.
When he reappeared in front of her, his wrist was still
dripping with water. In a sincere voice, he said, "I just washed my arm. You can bite it now."
Joanne had a sneer. When she said he was dirty, she meant he'd messed around with too many women.
"I'd rather bite the gauze.”
'Gauze is cleaner than him.'
Edwin's temples bulged slightly. In a foolish tone, he asked," Can the gauze take you to the hospital?"
"At least it won't hurt me." Joanne taunted. As Joanne's attention was drawn to Edwin, the doctor quickly treated
her wound.
Edwin showed an angry face.
After four years, Joanne could still easily irritate him.
"Joanne, do you have to talk to me like that?"
"Who is Joanne?" Mr. Atherton, are you still drunk? You're ridiculous. Stop talking nonsense!"
Edwin's face darkened. A cold look flashed across his eyes. In a sly voice, he asked, "Don't you want the shooting to
get back on track?"

Joanne went to Edwin, hoping that the crew's work would not be stopped because of her.
She bit her lower lip and didn't argue with him again.
Edwin's face eased. He stroked her hair and said gently, "I don't want to do that. You have to listen to me and do
what the doctor tells you to do. When I'm happy, I’ll do you the favor."
Joanne's fists clenched tightly. She suppressed her anger and asked, "What would make you happy, Mr. Atherton?"
"First, stay away from Jack. Don’t invite him to your home again.
"Second, accept my kindness.
"Third, go to a concert with me.
"Fourth, I'll think about it later."
"Your kindness?" Joanne's lips twitched. Her eyes widened, and she laughed sarcastically, "When you were drunk,
you harassed me. Was that your kindness? I'm impressed."
Edwin was annoyed. "It was my fault for getting you hurt, but I didn't mean to, so I'm here with you in the hospital. I
want to make it upto you."
