Chapter 167
As if by coincidence, the originally calm sea suddenly became windy and rough.
Hayden stood with his hands behind his back, his entire body emanating an aura of power.
“Don’t worry, I’ll find out. He opened his thin lips slightly.
He thought, Yvonne. I will avenge you
Not long after Joanna shrank back, Sophia arrived.
She had been having a great time these few days. After getting rid of Yvonne, she had even been sleeping better at night.
At this moment, she was happily coming to talk to Joanna. “Hey Joanna, what are we going to do with the 800 million from the sale of Jackson Group…”
When she pushed the door open, she saw Joanna curled up on the ground, her whole body trembling.
She froze and quickly ran over.
What’s wrong? Get up?” Sophia tried to help her up, but Joanna grabbed her arm.
do?
Joanna stared at Sophia with bloodshot eyes. “Mom! Hayden seems to have discovered something! What should we
Sophia was confused by these words. “What could they have found? You’re just overthinking things! When you pushed Yvonne into the river. I didn’t see an ounce of hesitation from you. Why are you scared now!”
As soon as she mentioned this, Joanna’s eyes were filled with fear.
..she opened her mouth, but found herself speechless.
Pushing Yvonne into the sea was just a momentary outburst of hatred.
Looking back now, she was terrified.
Every night she dreamt of Yvonne coming back to her covered in blood. She hadn’t slept well for several nights.
Sophia interrupted her hesitation, “What is there to be afraid of? Let me tell you, no one will ever know the truth. As long as Yosef is on our side, who would believe that he could kill his own daughter?”
“But he…
“Don’t worry.” Sophia touched her slightly bulging belly and smiled triumphantly. “As long as I have this child, Yosef won’t dare to mess around! He wants a son so badly, and I’m carrying his precious child!”
Joanna’s mood then stabilized a little.
Sophia comforted her and went to the windowsill to take a look. As expected, she saw that the Parker family was still guarding the deck
She sneered. “Hayden can really pretend. Now everyone is saying that he is a good man.”
“Mom, it seems that he really likes Yvonne.” Joanna suddenly said.
As soon as she spoke, Sophia scolded her loudly, “Enough! You’re quite empathetic. Later, you should dress up and go accompany him. The more vulnerable a man is, the easier it is for you to take advantage of him!”
Joanna was stunned, and her expression began to panic. “But I have Zachary.. Will Hayden still accept me?”
“Why not? I’m still living well after having a child. Can’t you learn from me?” Sophia pulled Joanna’s ear and lectured her.

She wondered how she gave birth to such a waste.
Joanna’s ears ached, and she agreed, “Mom, I know. I’ll go later…”
In the afternoon. Joanna got dressed up and went to the deck.
However, she was stopped before she could see Hayden,
“Ms. Charlotte, Mr. Parker is not seeing anyone right now. Richard said coldly, his tone very firm.
11 just want to ask if Yvonne has been found. Joanna’s eyes were red, pretending to be in pain.
Finding Yvonne’s body would at least prove that she was dead.
Of course, it would be best for her if they didn’t find Yvonne.
Joanna wished the sea creatures would eat her body and make her disappear from this world forever.
Richard shook his head. “No”
“Then I’ll go see Hayden… Joanna said again.
This remark even made Richard chuckle. “Ms. Charlotte, you’re joking, right? The person you should be seeing is Mr. Swanson, isn’t it?”
He thought. ‘Mr. Parker hasn’t looked at her since their scandal broke.
How dare she still have the audacity to come back and throw herself at him!
Joanna gritted her teeth at the mention of Zachary
She said. “I was framed! Hayden knows that!”
Although she later had slept with Zachary under the influence of drugs, she still clearly remembered that it was Hayden who had sent Zachary to her bed.
She thought. ‘Hayden must have misunderstood me. Everything will be fine once the misunderstanding is cleared up.”
Richard didn’t expect Joanna to suddenly shout and couldn’t stop her in time.
Hayden, who was not far away, heard the commotion. He turned around to see Joanna and narrowed his dark eyes. He said. “Bring her here,”
The bodyguard next to him walked towards Richard after hearing this.
After a while, Joanna was brought before Hayden.
“Hayden, you… What happened to you? Why do you look so haggard?” Joanna asked, tears streaming down her face.
It wasn’t clear from upstairs before, but now that she was closer, Joanna realized that Hayden had lost a lot of weight. The stubble that had recently his chin had hidden away his usual spirit.
grown
Joanna couldn’t believe that he would be so heartbroken over Yvonne.
At this moment, Joanna really regretted not killing her sooner. Then, nothing would have happened between her and Zachary
Hayden looked at the tears in the corners of her eyes and suddenly curled his lips. “I almost forgot that you’ve always been good with acting”
Joanna was stunned for a moment, then came back to her senses and hurriedly explained, “Hayden, I’m really worried about you! Although Yvonne is gone, you still have me… I know you misunderstood me before. That’s why you were angry. I really

didn’t lie to you. I fell in love with you the first time I saw you, I…
“Enough. Hayden interrupted her. His tone was not harsh.
Firstly, it was because he hadn’t eaten for several days and really didn’t have the energy.
Secondly, he had already seen through the tricks of Joanna and had nothing to say to her.
There was still one thing he wanted to know, which was if Yvonne’s death was related to her.
Instead of speaking directly, Hayden scrutinized her for a long time, his sharp black eyes seemingly piercing through her soul.
“Hayden, why why are you looking at me like that…” Joanna asked shyly, unsure of what was happening
“How did Yvonne fall into the sea. Hayden moved his lips, forcing out these few words.
To this day, he still couldn’t accept Yvonne’s death.
He thought, ‘Did the girl who once said she would cling to me for the rest of her life truly die?
‘She didn’t even leave me anything
Joanna froze.
She expected Hayden to press her, but she didn’t expect his eyes to be so cold when he asked about it.
