From then on, Gavin went to Noah's house every day and drank a bowl of black bitter medicine before going upstairs.
After drinking for a few days, he felt much better. Later, when he went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor also said that he looked much better than before. Noah's bitter medicine might really be helpful to him.
When Gavin was not at home, Wendy also tried her best to recover. At first, she could only walk for five minutes. Now she could have a thirty-minute walk, which relied on her painful insistence.
However, she could not let Gavin know the good news for the time being.
It was not only Wendy and Gavin, but also Joanne and Freya had a secret.
Due to Wendy's request, Joanne and Freya had to prepare some things for her. The most important thing was the dress.
Joanne considered that the dress must be splendid.
Freya felt that it must amaze the whole audience and make Wendy attract all the eyes on her.
The only pity was that Wendy was in such a hurry that it was too late to make a custom-made dress for her. Joanne and Freya could only pick one from major luxury shops.
One afternoon, Joanne finally had time to ask Freya out. The driver took them to the largest shopping mall in the city center, followed and protected by six or seven bodyguards in casual clothes.
After shopping for an entire afternoon, Joanne and Freya finally picked one that they both liked, and its size was exactly suitable to Wendy.
Freya happily clapped her hands with Joanne. When she saw a store of branded children's clothing, she took Joanne's hand and rushed over. "Let's see if there are any clothes suitable for Romy and Aiden!"
"They already have a lot of clothes." Joanne kept up with Freya and said, "Slow down. Don't forget that you are pregnant now."
"I'm glad! I..."
After entering the store of children's clothing, Freya's voice stopped abruptly. She was stunned and looked straight ahead.
"What happened?"
Joanne looked in the direction of Freya's sight and was also stunned.
Yuna was also in this store, holding a child's hand. It seemed that she was picking clothes for the child.
Yuna didn't expect to meet Joanne and Freya here either.
However, since they had met, it must be fate.
Yuna smiled. "Joanne, Freya, long time no see."
Joanne was still a little stunned, and her voice was full of uncertainty. "It's been a long time. Yuna, what's going on?"
Yuna smiled openly and said, "I'm doing great."
"Thank you for reminding us about Gavin and Wendy some time ago," said Joanne.
"I didn't help much, actually." Yuna said, "Fortunately, the problem has been solved."
"Yuna..."
Joanne was about to say further when the child holding Yuna's hand suddenly pulled the corner of Yuna's clothes. He swallowed and said, "Aunt Yuna, do you know these two beautiful aunties?"
"Yes, I do." Yuna said with a smile, "Do you also want to know them?"
He kept staring at Joanne and then pulled the corner of Yuna's clothes. "Aunt Yuna, I used to think that you were the most beautiful person in the world. But now, I think someone else is as beautiful as you! Will you be jealous?"
Joanne couldn't help laughing and asked Yuna, "Is it your friend's child?" "He is so cute!"
Yuna looked a little bleak, and she said, "His father... is Rowdy."
Freya did not know Rowdy, but after the incident of Gavin and Wendy, Chris told her about this person, as well as the grievances between Rowdy and Brian.
She concluded that Rowdy was a devil!
However, this little angel was actually the child of that devil?
"It doesn't make sense. It must be because of gene mutation!"
Joanne was also very surprised. When she was thinking about what to say, the little boy nodded cutely. "Yes, yes, my daddy's Chinese name is Rowdy. Auntie, do you know my daddy?"
Joanne came to her senses and looked at Emily gently.
No matter what kind of person Rowdy was, this little boy was only a child who was less than five years old, and he knew nothing.
Joanne smiled and nodded. "I know your daddy."
The little boy stared blankly at Joanne. He ran over and threw himself into Joanne's arms. "Auntie, you look more beautiful when you smile. I like you more and more. When I grow up, I want to marry you. Will you marry me?"
Yuna came over and patted Emily. "You have good taste, but she is married. Also, she is a mother."
He pursed his lips as if he was about to cry. He clung to Joanne's leg and refused to let go at all.
Maybe it was because she had become a mother, even if the child's father was Rowdy, Joanne still couldn't help feeling softhearted.
Joanne touched the little boy's head. He raised his head and blinked his big eyes, which lay under his long eyelashes. "Auntie, how old is your baby? Is it a little boy or a little girl?"
"My babies are still less than half a year old," said Joanne with a smile. "A boy and a girl. What's wrong?"
"Are they twins?" The little boy suddenly spoke perfect American English, and then he spoke Mandarin. "Auntie, your baby will become as beautiful as you when she grows up. Can I play with her? I can protect her!"
It would never happen, would it?
Eventually, Joanne couldn't bear to let the child down, so she said kindly, "Yes, of course."
The boy's eyes lit up, and he kissed Joanne's face very gently. "Thank you, Auntie!"
Joanne touched the little boy's tender face and felt that if she continued to talk to him, she would probably want to take him home.
In order to restrain her impulse, Joanne looked at Yuna. "Can we have a private chat?"
Joanne and Yuna to a nearby cafe. Only Freya and Emily were left in the children's clothing store, staring at each other.
"Little guy," Freya teased the boy and said with a serious look, "Am I not beautiful? Why do you only praise her?"
Emily tilted his head and said, "She reminded me of Mommy."
"Uh-huh." Freya continued to ask, "So what about me?"
"A big star!" Emily tried his best to stretch out his short hands, drew a big circle in the air, and seriously emphasized, "A very, very big star!"
Freya couldn't help laughing out loud, and at the same time, she sighed silently.
What a lovely child! If it weren't Rowdy's kid, she really wanted to take him home and take care of him for a day and give him the best of everything.
In the meantime, Joanne and Yuna were chatting in the coffee shop.
"Yuna, Wesley wants you back." Joanne asked, "Why won't you go back?"
Yuna shook her head. "I cannot go back. I... I won't leave Rowdy."
"I thought the person you like is Wesley," Joanne said.
Yuna just smiled and said weakly, "Joanne, you misunderstood."
Even if Joanne guessed correctly, she had to insist on saying that Joanne had misunderstood.
For a moment, Joanne did not know what to say.
If Wesley heard her words, he would be very sad, wouldn't he?
Yuna took a deep breath and said, And, Joanne, help me tell Wesley not to waste his efforts anymore.
For a moment, Joanne did not understand. She asked in confusion, "What?"
"He can't find a chance to kidnap me again." Yuna said, "When I go out, I will take Emily with me. He can't kidnap me in front of a child, can he?"
Only then did Joanne realize that Wesley had been waiting for an opportunity to take Yuna away again.
However, even so, Yuna was still unwilling to go back to him.
"What on earth is the reason?"
Joanne shook her head. "Yuna, I know what a woman looks like when she really likes someone. Don't lie to me. You don't like Rowdy at all."
Just now, when Yuna said that she would not leave Rowdy, she paused.
Also, Yuna said that she had misunderstood in an uncertain tone.
Yuna was not telling the truth. She just wanted to achieve some purposes by saying those words.
When a woman really liked someone, she would feel sweet even when she pronounces his name, but Yuna mentioned Rowdy in such a calm tone, which was not normal at all.
Something came to Joanne's mind all of a sudden. She looked at Yuna and asked, "Yuna, are you hiding something from us?"
Yuna quickly avoided Joanne's eyes and stood up. "It's getting late. I'm going back with Emily."
She rushed out of the coffee shop and went back to the children's clothing store to find Emily, who was chatting happily with Freya in Mandarin or in English.
Emily soon noticed that Yuna was back. "Huh?" He asked, "Auntie Yuna, have you finished talking with that auntie?"
"Yeah." Yuna walked over and held his hand. "We have to go back now."
"Oh." Emily waved at Joanne and Freyayi. "Goodbye, aunties."
Before Joanne could say anything, Yuna had already carried Emily into the elevator.
Seeing something wrong with Joanne's expression, Freya asked, "What's wrong? What did Yuna say to you?"
"She didn't say anything, but that's what makes her more suspicious. Yuna must be hiding something from us. Maybe..." Thinking of a possible cause, Joanne broke out in a cold sweat. She didn't have time to go shopping. She picked up Wendy's dress and said, "Freya, let's go back."
After getting in the car, Joanne called Brian. "Honey, are you home?"
"I still have something to do, and I'm going home after dealing with it." Brian noticed the anxiety in Joanne's tone and asked, "What's the trouble?"
"If your business is not urgent, you go home first." Joanne said, "I just met Yuna, and she didn't quite seem herself."
Wesley also said so, so he had to find a chance to take Yuna back.
Brian closed the folder and said, "I'll be right back."
Joanne knew Yuna. In front of her, Yuna would be more relaxed.
Wesley had always suspected that Yuna was hiding something from him. Maybe... Joanne had seen it.
Brian looked at the time, asked the driver to speed up the car, and rushed home as fast as he could.
