NovelEnglishChapter 1016 What's in the Bag? The Clarke family, at dinner.
Having trespassed in the restricted zone, Joan was nervous, not even daring to breathe.
Zack had reminded her.
And the sign hanging on the door gave her chills down the back. Even thinking about it made her panic.
"What's wrong with you?" Zack had been watching her since entering the door.
Joan regained her senses and looked up. With a faint smile, she said, "I am okay." Then she lowered her eyes in guilt.

After a while, Zack remembered that someone in the family had been absent recently.
He remembered the words he said to Georgia in the study that day.
"Where's Georgia?" Zack finally thought of Georgia. Over the days, he had put all his focus on Michelle.
Holding the fork, Joan raised her eyes, looked at him again, and asked with sexpectation, "Georgia got a new play. She's been on the set recently. Is there anything?" "Nope." A flash of sadness flashed in the middle-aged woman's heart. Her son was retarded. Only Georgia could inherit the Clarke Group.
But he never proposed for she to join the company. She didn't even have the chance to get to know the business.
Joan was anxious, "Zack, don't you want Georgia to help you at work?" "Nope." Zack directly refused, "Girls don't need to be so strong. She can enjoy her life and do whatever she likes, such as filming." Joan knew that he didn't regard Georgia as his daughter at all. He gave her money but never made plans for her.
"I'm worried that you are too tired without a helper," Joan explained, showing her good intentions.
Zack, who was eating, blurted out, "But | have Tristan, isn't he helping? " "But he is an outsider after all." Zack raised his eyes and met Joan's worried gaze. Tstood still for a few seconds.
Zack knew whether Tristan was an outsider.
"I'm sorry, | didn't doubt him..." Joan quickly explained, "I didn't doubt his ability to work. | shouldn't worry about the company's affairs." "I'm glad that you know this." Zack had no intention of talking about this matter again.
After dinner, he got up and went upstairs.
Joan was lost for a long time. She took Aiden's hand, "Aiden, Mr. Clarke has changed a lot recently, do you feel it?" Aiden nodded, looking a bit lost.
"What should | do?" Joan was at a loss, "How can | keep him? He won't divorce me, will he? " "Is he and Mrs. Marsh... really together?" Aiden asked.

The next morning.
Zack went out without even having breakfast. Joan felt pain in her heart.
They didn't sleep together the previous night. He didn't ask her to sleep in the master bedroom.
Just Zack left, and a Maserati drove into the yard.
"Ma'am, Lady Georgia is back." Aiden reminded.
Joan, who had just turned around, looked out from the living room. She saw the car stop, the door open, and her daughter got out of the car.
Georgia cwith a bag in her hand.
"Lady Georgia." Aiden saluted respectfully.
"Mom." Entering the living room, Georgia handed the bag to her, "Look at them!" "What is this?" Seeing that her daughter's expression was weird, Joan dared not to take the bag.
