"If you can't come down, what will happen to you then?"

As soon as Brian finished speaking, the answer came to Joanne's mind.

"They would have made love."

However, Joanne really could not blurt out such an embarrassing answer.

Joanne met Brian's gaze and stopped herself from saying the sentence. A trace of a blush slowly emerged on her cheeks, like peach blossoms blooming on the branches at the beginning of spring.

Brian looked at Joanne carefully and soon found that she had a certain look that only he knew too well.

Before making love, Joanne would always look at him in this way, and he could not resist Joanne at all. Every time, he was greatly tempted.

With his arms folded across his chest, Brian smiled leisurely. "Joanne, what are you thinking about?"

His eyes were too deep, dark and mysterious, and also they were elegant, calm and particularly charming all the time.

With his gaze focused on her, Joanne still could not resist him even if she faced him every day.

Joanne seemed to be jolted by an electric shock. She came to her senses, shook her head, and denied it. "Nothing!"

Brian slowly and approached Joanne in a predatory manner. "Really nothing?"

Joanne's resolve was weakened all of a sudden, and she was forced to retreat step by step, looking at Brian helplessly.

If she admitted it, she did not know what Brian would do to her.

If she denied it, well, she could probably guess what Brian would do to her.

In fact, Joanne had no choice at all.

Brian stretched out his hands and quietly put his arms around Joanne's waist.

At first, Joanne just felt ticklish. When she reacted, it was too late. Brian suddenly tightened his grip on her waist, and she almost fell into his arms.

"Ew!"

Joanne exclaimed in a low voice and closed her eyes. She could clearly feel Brian's heartbeat.

Brian touched the back of Joanne's head, lowered his head slightly, and moved his sexy and thin lips close to Joanne's ear. "Joanne, what do you think of the kitchen?"

Joanne shivered all over.

Brian had asked her many similar questions before.

"Joanne, what do you think of the sofa?"

"Joanne, what do you think of the study?"

"Joanne, what do you think of..."

Regardless of Joanne's answer, the result was the same.

When Brian asked this question, he was actually ready to make love with her.

"Ew, I'll cover my face..."

Brian held Joanne's hand and gently said in a commanding way, "Joanne, you haven't answered my question yet."

Joanne lowered her head and almost buried her face in Brian's chest. "I don't want to answer!"

Brian pondered for a moment and asked in a very understanding manner, "You don't want to answer, so you want to try it yourself?"

Joanne was speechless.

Brian's thinking was so strange that he could come up with such an answer.

However, what was more important than being speechless was to push Brian away first and stop him!

This was the kitchen on the first floor, and it was already dawn. Simon and Martha could come in at any time. If they saw...

Joanne did not dare to think about it anymore and just subconsciously refused Brian. "No need to try. It must be uncomfortable here!"

Brian raised his eyebrows and did not flinch. Instead, he gave a good suggestion. "Shall we change to a more comfortable place, such as our room?"

This time, Joanne was really speechless.

She took a deep breath and kept telling herself that this was a trick, Brian's trick, and she must not be trapped!

Just as Joanne was about to push Brian away, the microwave made a "ding-" sound.

The clear and loud sound came just at the right time, which immediately attracted the attention of Brian and Joanne.

Joanne also found a better excuse.

She looked at Brian seriously. "The breakfast is ready. We can eat breakfast now!" After a pause, she added, "I'm talking about the actual breakfast!"

If she did not emphasize that, Brian would definitely beat around the bush and say that what he wanted was not the breakfast on the table.

That's right. She knew well about Brian's tricks!

On the one hand, Joanne was happy for her foresight, and on the other hand, she realized that she had to defend herself against Brian as soon as she woke up.

This kind of life... was too miserable.

Brian looked out of the window. It was already dawn. It would not take long before Martha and Simon came down.

He decided to let Joanne go, loosened his grip on her, and helped her carry breakfast to the dining room.

There was a French window in the dining room and they could clearly tell what the weather was like.

It was an unexpectedly good day today.

The sunshine in winter was always precious enough. The golden sunlight shone through the French window and on the table, which filled the morning with vitality.

The traces of blush faded from Joanne's face, and she could finally move naturally.

She set up the bowls and chopsticks and served two bowls of porridge. "Okay, let's eat now."

Brian picked up the exquisite porcelain spoon and stirred the porridge in the bowl. He suddenly looked at Joanne and asked, "Joanne, why did you think of preparing breakfast today?"

Due to Yuna's state of affairs, Joanne had been busy these days. Brian felt sorry for her and asked her to leave the breakfast to the chef and sleep for another half an hour.

If Joanne was not busy, she would prepare dinner.

So Brian suspected that she did it for other reasons, when she suddenly prepared breakfast today.

Joanne pursed her lips and looked at Brian. "Next, you and Wesley will find a way to bring Yuna back. And you still need to deal with Gavin's operation, right?"

These two matters were both very important. The happiness of four persons were at stake.

Brian replied with a "hmm" and smiled at Joanne. "You don't have to worry. Wesley and I can handle it."

Joanne bit her lips, and her eyes were gradually filled with expectation. "Brian, I was thinking..."

When she said these three words, Brian had already guessed what her next words would be.

He interrupted Joanne without hesitation. "Don't think about it. No one can help with Yuna's matter. Nor can you. As for Wendy and Gavin, you are responsible for keeping Gavin's preparations for the wedding a secret from Wendy."

At this time, since Joanne couldn't help, then she could only listen to Brian.

She nodded and said, "Okay, I see."

Brian stroked Joanne's hair as usual. "Good girl."

After breakfast, Brian did not even have time to see the two babies. He changed and left in a hurry.

Joanne asked the helpers to do the dishes, and then went upstairs straight into the children's room.

Aiden and Romy had already woken up. Martha was holding Romy in her arms. Iris was coaxing Aiden, who had gotten up on the wrong side of bed, while Aunt Wu was rushing to make milk.

The voices of the adults and children were mixed together. The whole children's room was lively and full of vitality.

Looking at this scene, Joanne suddenly thought of spring.

The winter had passed and the spring was coming soon.

Would everything that they were experiencing get better with the arrival of spring?

Iris was the first to notice Joanne and called her. "Joanne, why are you standing at the door? Come in."

Joanne came to her senses and said while walking into the children's room, "Nothing." She planned to hold Aiden. "Mom, leave him to me."

"Okay." Iris helplessly handed the little boy to Joanne. "Maybe the little boy just wants his mother."

It turned out that Iris was too optimistic.

When he was held in Joanne's arms, Aiden still cried as hard as before. He grabbed Joanne's clothes with his small hands and kept struggling, as if he wanted to get rid of some shackles.

Joanne patiently coaxed the little boy and did not feel annoyed at all.

After witnessing what had happened to Yuna and Gavin, Joanne suddenly realized that as long as there were no ups and downs in her life, then some small troubles could also be interpreted as the flavorings in life.

Life was composed of countless small troubles and small blessings.

Only in the face of something that could not be reversed would she get frustrated or be angry.

Aiden calmed down after struggling for a while in his mother's arms, and then obediently gulped down the milk fed to him by Joanne.

After the two babies quieted down, Joanne took Iris downstairs.

After Iris was discharged from the hospital, she had been recuperating for a period of time, and she had recovered from her injuries. She could perform her daily activities unhindered.

However, because of what had happened to Wesley and Yuna, the old lady, who had always been optimistic, rarely smiled.

Joanne took Iris to the dining room and filled her bowl with porridge. After thinking for a while, she told her about Yuna. Finally, she said, "Anyway, we have contacted Yuna. Brian and Wesley will find a way to bring her back."

Iris became more excited than when she had heard any other good news. She nodded and said, "Okay, tell Brian and Wesley to be careful. No matter what, we must bring Yuna back."

Joanne smiled. "Mom, don't worry. Brian will."

Iris's eyes sparkled with tears, and her appetite was unexpectedly good. After eating two bowls of porridge, she returned to the children's room with a smile and accompanied the two little guys.

Joanne's mood also improved. When she tidied up the dining room, the soup in the kitchen was just ready.

Simon put the soup into the thermal lunchbox and said, "Madam, are you taking this to the hospital to Special Assistant Gavin?"

Joanne closed the lid of the thermal lunchbox and nodded with a smile. "Yes."

After that, she put on her coat and took the thermal lunchbox out, she asked Winston to send her to the private hospital.

The matter regarding Wesley and Yuna was very important. Gavin and Wendy's wedding was equally important.

Gavin would be undergoing an operation soon. Wendy would face the biggest test in her life.

Before such a cruel test came, they wanted to give Wendy a surprise.

In other words, before the unknown result came, they should satisfy Wendy's wish of becoming Gavin's wife.
