Chapter 362
In the office, Joanna put her hands in her hair, feeling extremely heavy and dejected.
She did not dare to recall the scene last night!
Although she refused to admit that she still loved Bruce, her instinctive reaction had sold her out. How would she
have fallen for him unknowingly last night if she did not love him?
And she would not hug him tightly when she lost control and had such strong feelings for him.
“Beep, beep, beep.”
The phone vibrated again.
Joanna shuddered and hurriedly looked at the phone.
She had been really busy these past few days. Countless calls came in every day.
“Hey, Cora.”
Cora’s voice came from the other end of the phone, “Miss Haynes, the advancement competition is the day after
tomorrow. If you are available, you should come.”
Joanna only came back to her senses after hearing that.
Recently, she had been busy with Greyport and had forgotten about Greene Town.
“Is the advancement competition the day after tomorrow?”
“Yes, it’s already the fifth episode. The contestants will enter the top 16 the day after tomorrow. This episode is
rather important. It concerns the list of contestants who will advance. It’s best if you come over.”
The sponsors had squeezed in half of the spots. There were only seven spots left to make the final 16 on merit.
Joanna planned to add eight more slots for the capable contestants. Therefore, it was best for her to go to the
venue personally.
Joanna was more awake and was quite worried. “So soon?”
“That’s right. It’s been almost three months since the registration round.”
“Alright, I understand. If I’m available the day after tomorrow, I’ll go over and take a look.”
“Okay, okay.”
“Is there anything going on in Greene Town? We have to take safety measures to ensure the safety of the
contestants.”
“Miss Haynes, don’t worry! The person in charge of CDTV has found a special security guard to protect the scene.
“It’s impossible for something like that to happen again.”
“Okay, that’s good.”
After hanging up, Joanna’s eyes darkened. She was still a little worried.
There was still no news of Ryan, and the police had been searching for him.
“I wonder how Dad is doing now? Will he be unable to take this blow?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I’d better go and see him!” she thought to herself.
After finishing her work in the morning, at around two in the afternoon, Joanna called the Haynes family’s nanny,
Fantine, to ask about Sha
According to Fantine, Shaun had been staying in the hospital ever since Ryan’s accident.
His condition had worsened.
After she got the address of the hospital, Joanna drove to the hospital with Tatiana.
At the hospital, at around three o’clock in the afternoon, Joanna arrived with bags of nutritional supplements.
When Fantine saw Joanna, she hurriedly came forward to greet her, “Miss Joanna, you’re here?”
Joanna’s tone was solemn as she asked, “Where’s my dad?”
“Mr. Haynes is in the ward now!”
“How’s he now? Is he seriously ill?”
Fantine sighed faintly. “Oh, Miss Joanna, you’ll know when you go in and take a look!”

“Why are you the only one guarding here?”
“Mr. Derick is sloppy all day and doesn’t care about Mr. Haynes’s life and death. Mr. Ryan has become like this
again. There’s no one in charge of the Haynes family now!
“The servants have resigned voluntarily now, so I’m the only one left.” As Fantine spoke, her eyes could not help but
turn red.
Derick was a wastrel!
Even though such an incident had happened at home, he still did not forget to eat, drink, and have fun. He had
already squandered most of the family’s assets.
Now that Shaun was so sick, they could not even afford to pay the servants‘ salaries. The other servants had all left.
Fantine had been working in the Haynes family for nearly 20 years, so she had stayed.
“I’ll go in and see my daddy!”
“Okay!”
“Creak!” Joanna pushed open the door of the ward.
In the ward, Shaun lay on the hospital bed in a daze. He had gray hair at the temples. His face was very gray, and
his eyes were empty and numb. He looked like he had aged a lot.
Seeing this, Joanna could not help but feel bad in her heart. She gently walked to the bed and said, “Dad…”
When Shaun heard this, he rolled his eyes slightly. He saw Joanna and his turbid eyes suddenly lit up before
darkening again.
“Joann, Shaun called out hoarsely.
He had a severe cerebral infarction and was half paralyzed.
Coupled with the fact that he had been agitated, he slurred even more. He could only lie in bed to recuperate.
Joanna endured the pain in her heart and said gently, “Dad, I’m here to visit you!”
Shaun rolled his eyes, and turbid tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.
He no longer had any ability.
With all these messy things happening at home, he was already too weak to care about anything.
“Joann…” Shaun opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he couldn’t even finish his sentence.
“Dad, rest well, and don’t think too much!”
“Boohoo… Shaun couldn’t help but sob..
Seeing this, Joanna felt even worse.
She knew what her father wanted to say, but she didn’t know how to comfort him other than to ask him to get
better and not.
to worry.
It was a pity that Ryan had done such a thing! She was not the police, nor did she have the ability to redeem him.
Shaun did not expect the obedient boy he had always been proud of to be so bold as to hurt someone with a gun
and install
a bomb in his sister’s car.
Now that he had become a wanted criminal, Shaun hoped he would escape overseas and never return. Otherwise,
he would probably be imprisoned for life once he was caught.
“Joann, Daddy might not make it… Roxy…” Shaun struggled to utter a few words, and his face turned purple!
Joanna understood that her father was worried about Roxanne. “Dad, don’t worry!
“I… will take care of Roxanne. I won’t let her stay in the mental hospital for the rest of her life!”
“Okay…” When Shaun heard this, his body relaxed. He was finally relieved!
He knew very well that Derick was a wastrel and wouldn’t take care of Roxanne. Although Joanna was not on good
terms. with Roxanne, she was still much better than Derick.
“Dad, rest well. I’ll visit you another day.”
Shaun reached out with a trembling hand, wanting to hold Joanna’s hand. Unfortunately, after trying it for a long
time, he still could not lift it.
Seeing this, Joanna took the initiative to hold Shaun’s hand. “Dad, don’t think so much. The most important thing is
to recuperate!
‘I’ll check on Roxy this afternoon and send her some daily necessities.”
”
Chapter 362
“Okay,” Shaun responded with difficulty.
After visiting her dad, Joanna walked out of the hospital in a heavy mood.
“Tatiana, go to Quinlan Sanatorium!”
Tatiana was driving. She was stunned when she heard that. “Miss Haynes, what are you going there for?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJoanna sighed and said solemnly, “I’ll go take a look at Roxanne. I haven’t seen her for so long. I want to see how
she’s doing.”
“Oh, okay!”
Tatiana drove straight to Quinlan Sanatorium!
An hour later, they arrived at Quinlan Sanatorium.
This was the largest mental hospital in Greyport. It was located in the remote suburbs, and the people locked inside
were all abnormal!
“Who do you want to visit?”
“I want to see Roxanne Haynes.”
“Roxanne Haynes?” The nurse from the mental hospital looked up at Joanna.
“Come with me.”
After registration, Joanna followed the nurse to the ward.
“You can go in! Wait here for a while.”
“Alright.” Joanna looked around. Other than a table, there were only two chairs.
After waiting for about five minutes, the door was pushed open. A nurse came in with a woman in a striped hospital
gown.
“Roxanne!” When Joanna saw this, her eyes widened. She could hardly recognize the person in front of her.
The once proud and beautiful little princess had changed. Her hair had been cut down to her ears, like a schoolgirl.
She had also gained weight and looked puffy and wooden. Her spirit was even more lifeless.
Joanna sighed. “Roxy, do you still know me?”
Roxanne raised her head in a daze. She tilted her head and sized up Joanna. Then, she shook her head in a daze.
Seeing this, Joanna felt even worse!
If she could, she didn’t want to be enemies with anyone. They were the ones who pressed on step by step. In the
end, they ended up in such a situation. What a pity!
“These food are for you!” Joanna quickly handed the things she bought to Roxanne.
Roxanne held it in her hand in a daze. She hummed and did not say anything.
After staying in the ward for a few minutes, Joanna felt suffocated!
“Roxy, I’m leaving now. I’ll visit you another day when I’m free.”
Seeing that Joanna was about to leave, Roxanne suddenly called out weakly, “Joanna.”
Joanna was stunned and did not know what to say.
Roxanne looked at Joanna pitifully. “Joanna, I don’t want to stay here. Can you take me away?”
Joanna held her breath and looked at Roxanne with a complicated expression.
