Chasing After My Beloved Wife novel Chapter 51

Joye's face changed slightly. Since she fell from the upstairs that day, she had not seen Shawn. Instead, his grandfather and Yvon came to see her every day, especially Yvon...

While she was thinking, a tall and strong figure came in through the door. Joye quickly stopped thinking and turned to look. “Why are you here again? Didn’t you say that you had work?”

"Don’t worry about work. Since you’re leaving the hospital today, I’ve prepared a car for you so that you can go home,” Yvon said as he handed her an exquisite box and smiled, “This is your present.”

"Wow, Chief, this is the first time I've heard of someone getting a present for getting discharged from the hospital. Joye, let’s see what it is.”

Janina winked. Joye opened the box awkwardly. It was not jewelry of any kind. Instead, it was a normal-looking wooden comb.

"I don't know how to give gifts. I heard that a comb represents health. I hope you can comb away all your unhappiness and have better energy.”

There was nothing unusual on Yvon's face, but his earlobe was slightly red. In fact, there was another meaning behind giving Joye a comb.

He wanted to spend the rest of his life with Joye.

"Chief, you’re so sincere when it comes to giving presents.”

Janina blinked playfully. She was a designer. She knew the meanings behind these kinds of gifts.

"Are you done packing? I’ll get the car.”

Having his thoughts seen through, Yvon's face turned slightly red. He picked up Joye’s luggage and strode out of the ward.

"God is fair. God made you meet a scum, but also gave you someone very kind. Joye, I ship both of you.”

"Don't be silly. He and I are just friends."

Joye reached out and patted Janina's butt. She didn't forget to warn her. She picked up the comb in the box. The comb was polished and smooth. Whenever Joye faced problems, Yvon was there to help her, but they could only be friends.

"That may not be the case. The future is far ahead. Anything is possible. It all depends on whether you are willing to follow your heart or not,” Janina said and dashed away, afraid that Joye might hit her.

"Janina, it’s been so many years. You haven't fallen in love with any man, have you?"

The corners of Joye's mouth twitched. She looked up at her best friend and saw a flash of disdain in her eyes.

"Who said a woman must love a man? I have so much freedom. I am the sort who does not need to be married. I can live my life with just you and our child.”

Listening to Janina’s explanation, Joye felt an ache in her heart. Janina decided not to get married because she had once been deeply hurt.

The human heart was very fragile. After it lets one person go, it might not be able to accept a second one.

"Oh, don't look at me like that. The air in this hospital is really bad. Let's go out and find the chief."

Janina smiled and covered the pain in her eyes. She took Joye's arm and walked out. Janina had to make sure that Joye did not remind her of the bad memories. Joye said, “Walk slowly. I’m carrying our baby.”

"Why did you two come out already? It's windy outside."

Yvon put down the lid of the trunk and quickly ran to the side of the car to open the door.

"I've been lying down every day, and I've wanted to come out and have some fresh air."

She sat in the back with a smile, but the smile on her lips froze. She looked at the exit of the hospital. Shawn walked out with Vivian in his arms. His son was holding onto his shirt and looked as though he was calling, “Mom and Dad.”

Joye’s heart felt as though it had been stabbed.

“What's there to see? It’s just an adulteress and an illegitimate child.”

Janina also saw what was happening. She shut the door. That scum Shawn, how unlucky to bump into him now! He knew that it was the day that Joye was going to be discharged from the hospital. She was deeply annoyed to see him.

Shawn walked straight to the parking lot with Vivian in his arms. He saw Joye in the car. He pretended not to see her. She was just like a stranger to him.

Vivian had already seen Yvon and Joye in the car, but she also pretended not to see them. She put her head close to Shawn’s chest and smiled happily. There was actually nothing that she needed to do. She just had to be happy with Shawn, and let Joye feel as though she had lost everything.

"What a f*cking pair of b*stards! Curse this shameless pair!"

Janina wanted to get out of the car and attack both of them.

Only then did Joye look away. She tried to smile. She said, “Start the car. Let’s go.”

"Yes."

Yvon didn't say anything and immediately started the car and left the parking lot. Only after a moment did Shawn start the Rolls-Royce unhurriedly.

Vivian sat in the passenger seat. She felt rather annoyed with her cast, so she could not put on her safety belt. She said to Shawn, “Can you help me with this?”

"Sure, hold on."

He then smiled and stepped on the gas pedal, soon the car hit the road.

The embarrassment on Vivian's face suddenly became real. She loosened the seat belt in her hand and turned to look out of the window. "Shawn, I will drive Joye out of your heart completely. Only in this way can you truly belong to me,” Vivan thought to herself.

Although Linda was in charge of everything in the company, Joye could not rest easily. The next morning, she ignored Janina's protests and went to Leonard Group. She received some good news.

"I didn't expect the product to receive such a big order as soon as it was introduced."

Joye looked at the contract in her hand with a hint of joy on her face. "The Beryl Group has always cooperated with the Richard family. I am surprised that they chose us. The design department need to work harder. Whether the Leonard Group can get on the right track or not depends on this.”

"I understand. Damian and Tiffany both said that they will produce the design plan as soon as possible. However, President, will the Richard family think that we have robbed them of their business?"

A trace of worry flashed across Linda's face, and the smile on Joye's face disappeared. She had no plans to continue being the major shareholder of the Richard Group, nor did she have the intention of keeping the business of the Leonard family tied to them. But the Leonard Group needed this order urgently this time, so she could not let go of this opportunity.
