Chapter 1417

In the past, before her face was fully healed, the doctor had advised her against eating spicy food.

But during her time in Mourpa, her taste had gradually adapted to lighter flavors.

So, when she suddenly had a spicy meal, her stomach struggled to adjust at first but then got used to it, perhaps

because of her sadness.

Jack initially didn't pick up on Joanne's unease as she stuffed her mouth with food. But when he noticed something

amiss, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is something bothering you?"

Joanne plastered on a smile and deflected his question." No. I'm happy to be back in Sapphire City. Come on, let's

toast it."

Jack's heart lurched.

He had heard from Patrick that Joanne had once been betrayed and that her scars were also left by that man.

"Do you know Edwin before?"

Joanne hesitated mid-sip, asking, "Why bring him up?"

"I'm worried he'll bother you again! How about I find you another place? Bigger and more luxurious than this one."

"I'll join the crew next week. If you have so much money, donate it to charity. There are plenty of underprivileged

children in Sapphire City who need help."

"If you agree to be my girlfriend, I'll do whatever you say."

"There you come again! Are you trying to get yourself kicked out?"

Rat-tat.

After three rounds of drinks, the meal was about to end when the door was knocked again.

Jack opened the door and found the janitor standing outside.

The janitor smiled at him and said, "Sir, your car is parked in the wrong place and obstructing traffic. Please move

it, or we'll have to call a tow truck."

Joanne took the chance to send Jack away.

It was getting late, and he should go home.

Jack cursed the meddling janitor under his breath. He had planned to wait for Joanne to get drunk and lose control.

"Whatever, tow it!" Jack said indifferently.

The janitor looked Jack up and down, astonished. It was the first time he'd heard someone take a luxury car so

lightly.

Sure enough, the residents of East Imperial were all rich.

Joanne ushered Jack out of the room.

"You'll need to pay for the tow truck. Hurry back to the hospital. I need to clean up and get some rest."

"Jo," Jack pleaded, winking at Joanne vigorously, "Aren't you scared of living in such a big place alone? I can keep

you company."

Joanne was a timid person, to begin with, and Jack's words sent a shiver down her spine. She bristled and drove him

away.

Jack blamed the janitor for Joanne's refusal.

It was not until he got out of the elevator that he realized something.

"Wait, how is my car blocking traffic? Are you kidding me?"

The janitor replied respectfully, "I wouldn't dare, sir. Our community is undergoing renovations, and parking on the

roadside is prohibited. You can see for yourself if you don't believe me."
