Chapter 527
Joanna’s face darkened. “I used to think that you are a cultured and gentlemanly man, Mr. Yanice. I didn’t expect
that you’d behave no differently from a local ruffian.
“Since you don’t want to tell me where Roxanne is, I won’t ask anymore,” Joanna said and walked out carrying her
bag.
Although she thought of Roxanne as her younger sister, Roxanne might not think of her as an older sister. Now that
Roxanne was missing. Joanna simply wanted to make sure that she was still alive.
Since Marlowe knew where Roxanne was, it meant that she was still alive. Naturally, Joanna did not feel like
meddling too much in this matter.
Marlowe had a cold smile. “Ha! How interesting… One day, I’ll make sure that you come crying to me!” He wiped
the coffee stains on his face. His eyes had a crafty and cocky look in them.
Hearing this, Joanna felt goosebumps spread all over her skin. However, she did not stop and continued to walk
away.
She walked out of the cafe.
Tatiana and Andy had grave expressions. “Miss Haynes, he didn’t do anything to you, right?” they asked.
“I’m fine. Let’s go,” said Joanna.
Her mood was completely ruined by Marlowe, so she was not in the mood to shop anymore. Joanna left the mall,
wanting to head home.
She arrived at the car park.
Kody was surprised to see Joanna return so quickly. “You’re done shopping so quickly?”
Usually, when Joanna came to Skyluxe, she would shop for at least two to three hours. This time, she was back in
less than half an hour. That was really strange.
“Let’s go back!” Joanna instructed. She, Tatiana, and Andy got into the car.
“All right!” Kody did not dare to ask further. He started the car and drove out of the parking lot.
The car drove steadily in the direction of Sherane Bay Villa. The bodyguards were in the car behind theirs.
The distance between Skyluxe and Sherane Bay Villa was about half an hour by car.
Kody was driving. As soon as he got off the ring road, he saw a black car speeding toward them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing this. Kody hurriedly turned the steering wheel. The car swerved and he barely avoided the oncoming car.
The passengers behind were thrown off balance by the sudden erratic motion of the car.
Andy was so startled that he broke out in a cold sweat. “What’s going on? Do you even know how to drive?”
Kody said exasperatedly. “Didn’t you see that car just now? It was driving in the reverse direction!”
Joanna was also stunned. Her heart was beating wildly. “Stop arguing…”
Before she could finish her sentence, she heard a whistling sound. A car drifted and stopped in front of their car.
“Ah! Be careful!” Joanna cried out.
There was a loud bang. Kody did not manage to step on the brake and their car crashed into the car in front of
them.
Both cars went out of control and started spinning. Joanna’s car made a full 180–degree spin on the spot and the
back of their car smashed into a few other cars.
“Ah!” Joanna and Tatiana both shouted in alarm. They were instantly locked in their seatbelts.
Fortunately, the car was not driving very fast, so it did not overturn.
The four of them were wearing seatbelts so they were not severely injured.
“Kody, what’s going on?” Joanna asked.
Kody was an experienced driver and would not make the mistake of tailgating.
“Let’s get out of the car and see if anyone is injured.”
Joanna’s expression changed. She had a feeling that something was amiss.
“Don’t get out of the car yet. Hurry up and call the police,” she said.
Tatiana also looked around vigilantly. “Miss Haynes, be careful. I think you’ve encountered an enemy.”
There was a traffic jam, so the bodyguard’s car was stuck at the previous intersection and could not catch up to
Joanna’s car.
Chapter 527
Noticing that something was amiss, Kody did not dare to get out of the car. He started the car again and started to
drive forward.
As expected, the car had just started when something happened.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Several gunshots broke through the car windows.
A few men in black behind them held guns as they speedily caught up with Joanna’s car.
Kody did not dare to stop the car. He stepped on the accelerator and sped away.
A few men in black also quickly got into a car and chased after Joanna’s car.
Bang! Bang! Bang! More shots rang out.
Kody grunted as he was shot in the left chest. He lost his hold on the steering wheel and the car crashed onto the
tree lawn.
“Kody!” Joanna exclaimed.
Tatiana and Andy could not attend to Kody now. “Miss Haynes, get out quickly!”
This was a critical moment. Their enemy was behind them. If the trio did not flee, they would die there and then.
The car door opened.
Tatiana and Andy escorted Joanna out of the car hurriedly.
Bang!
“Ah!” Andy was shot in the back and fell heavily to the ground.
Tatiana also took out her weapon and said urgently, “Miss Haynes, you should leave first! I’ll hold them back!”
Joanna glanced at Tatiana. Having no other choice, she could only leap across the tree lawn and run off into the
distance.
At the same time, the bodyguards car drove over. The five bodyguards got out of the car and hurriedly went to help
Tatiana.
At this time, Joanna had just run passed the opposite road.
There was a deafening roar. A motocross bike stopped in front of her.
“Ah!” Joanna cried out in alarm. She tried to gain the upper hand by attacking first.
On the motocross bike was a man wearing a helmet.
“Joann, get in the car!” he yelled.
Joanna was momentarily stunned. She knew that he was not an enemy and quickly got on the bike.
The man drove the bike down the alley and quickly shook off the people behind her.
The man continued to drive for about 20 minutes. When he was certain that no one would catch up to him, he
finally stopped the bike.

“Is it you, Jay?” Joanna thought.
“Joann, are you all right?” Jaydon took off his helmet, revealing his handsome face. He had a resolute expression.
Seeing that it was indeed Jaydon, Joanna could not hide her excitement. “Jay, it’s really you! Why are you here?”
Jaydon looked at Joanna with a complicated expression.
Joanna suddenly paused. She asked gingerly, “Jay, I… I thought you lost your memory?”
Jaydon did not say anything. The melancholy in his eyes deepened.
Joanna’s heart ached. She stared at Jaydon with a guilty gaze.
Indeed
It was impossible for him to lose his memory.
Jaydon simply did not want to put her in a difficult position, so he deliberately pretended to lose his memory. Now
that he saw that she was in danger, he could not keep up the pretense anymore.
“Jay, I’m sorry. 1-1 have let you down.” Joanna’s heart ached. Tears welled in her eyes and blurred her vision.
In this lifetime, Jaydon was the one who she had let down the most.
She had no way of repaying his kindness.
The corners of Jaydon’s lips curled up. He reached out, and his palm gently caressed her cheek. “You don’t have to
apologize to me. You didn’t let me down.”
Chapter 527
“Don’t you hate me?” Tears welled up in Joanna’s eyes.
Jaydon shook his head sadly.
He knew very well that Joanna had been tricked by Bruce.
Ë
Bruce was the one who had pestered Joanna and refused to let her go. How could she get away from him?
Jaydon knew that even if Joanna got married to him, Bruce would still not be willing to let her go. He would use all
kinds of methods to break them up.
Therefore, Jaydon did not blame Joanna. Even if he had to hate someone, it would be Bruce.
“It’s not safe here. Let’s go somewhere safe first, Bruce said.
“Okay!” Joanna said.
