Chapter 385
As Millieâs figure disappeared into the lobby, Joannaâs voice slowly reached Winstonâs ears. âMills also mentioned that if we get married, we must invite her
Winstonâs already cold expression turned even frostier. Why should they invite Millie? To cause trouble?
Joanna studied Winstonâs reaction. It was obvious he was mad. She bit her lip, realizing he still cared about Millieâs feelings.
Joanna swore to work harder to keep Winston wrapped around her finger.
Just as she was about to leave, she overheard the nurse inside on the phone.
âDr. Caldwell, you forgot to take Sonny Alpersâ medication.â
Joanna immediately turned to look. Sonny?
Upon hearing that name, Winstonâs head snapped around, too. Could it be the same Sonny from prison?
âWhich room is he in?â Winston asked, bending down.
Seeing it was Winston, the nurse told him the room number. Then, he said to Joanna, âLetâs go take a look.â
Joanna frowned and gripped Winstonâs arm. Did they really need to go?
âWhat are you afraid of?â Winston glanced sideways at her. He wonât retaliate against you. Heâs very sick.â
Joanna hesitated for a moment before following Winston.
Hazel was somewhat stunned to see Joanna in the cardiac surgery department. After a while, she realized Joanna was there to visit a patient.
Joanna appeared delicate and charming next to Winston,
Two guards were posted at the door of Sonnyâs room. Once Winston showed his identification, they allowed him to enter.
Their presence made Sonnyâs heart race. Joanna watched as the blood pressure and heart rate readings on the monitor spiked and couldnât help but roll her eyes inwardly.
What a coward! All she needed Sonny to do was tell a lie, and he was scared to death.
Yet, Sonny had incredible luck. Joanna had tried twice to eliminate him to avoid future complications, but both times he had been saved.
Sonny stared at Joanna, his hands clenched into fists. However, he couldnât say a word.
This despicable woman! He had promised to keep his mouth shut, yet she still wanted him dead.

Winston saw the hostility in Sonnyâs eyes as he looked at Joanna,
Feigning fear, Joanna hid behind Winston. âWinâ¦â
âIs it him?â Winston asked her.
Joanna nodded. âYes, it was him back then. He stabbed me in the back with a dagger and then threw me into the sea.â
Sonnyâs eyes widened in shock. Winston sensed that he had something to say,
âWhat is it?â Winston leaned in to ask.
Sonny slowly pointed at Joanna. She immediately narrowed her eyes, silently warning him to think twice. Otherwise, his wife, children, and parents would all perish with him.
Sonny noticed the threat in Joannaâs eyes and eventually gave up. Seeing that he had closed his eyes, Winston turned to Joanna.
She seemed genuinely scared and gulped nervously. âWin⦠Letâs go. Seeing him makes me tremble.â Winston raised an eyebrow but replied, âAlright.â
Sonny watched the two leave, and only then did his blood pressure gradually stabilize. Joanna was so ruthless and vicious. However, he didnât have much time left.
As Winston closed the door, his hand slowly tightened on the doorknob. The last time he saw Sonny in prison, he had praised Joanna. But why did Sonny freak out this time?
That night, Millie had just arrived at the gate of Rachelâs villa when she saw the door open. Standing in the doorway were Rachel and her manager, Laura.
âLaura, youâre here too!â Millie said in surprise.
At that moment, Rachel was clad in a blackâandâwhite casual outfit, her face hidden under a hat and mask. Millie wondered if she was going out.
Laura explained, âThis situation was Rachâs mistake, but Mr. Webson took the blame for her. Iâm taking Rach out to dinner with him. Since youâre all friends, why donât you join us, Ms. Caldwell?â
