Chapter 258
Joanna looked up at Andrew with her crying face.
"Think about it!” He didn't show any emotion on his face.
All of a sudden, Joanna came up with an idea when she was bothered by the problem.
"Andrew, is it possible that Mommy and dad would not divorce as long as I can make them get along with each other again?”
Andrew folded his arms in front of his chest without saying anything. That meant a 'Yes'.
Joanna spun around excitedly. It would so nice if she could safeguard the marriage between her parents. And Andrew inspired her of that. She carefully took a box of chocolates that she had hidden in her closet for a long time to Andrew.
"Andrew, my uncle sent the chocolates to me from a foreign country. It's quite delicious. I only took one chunk, and the rest is all yours.”
Andrew didn't care about it at all. "I'm not interested in the girl's candy.” But Joanna insisted on giving him the chocolates. She even put a heart-shaped one into his mouth. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Her eyes were twinkling as she looked forward to seeing his response. "How does it taste?”
Andrew turned away reluctantly, and then he said with disgust, "It's too sweet!”
Having been inspired, Joanna managed to find a good chance to make her parents reconcile with each other. When she entered Bonnie's room, she saw Bonnie staring blankly at the computer.
Joanna became excited after taking a look at the screen. That was the stock chart of the Grant Group! As Sebastian's daughter, she was quite familiar with it. The situation of the stock market seemed to be
bleak as the share prices kept decreasing in the chart pattern.
She noticed Bonnie's dull face, indicating that she was concerned about the Grant Group and Sebastian. So Joanna decided to start from the stock market.
Joanna dashed into Annie's arms, looking sad. "Mommy, what shall I do? I feel so sad.”
"What's the matter? Why are you so sad?” asked Bonnie with concern.
Covering her chest, Joanna sobbed, "It's about dad. His company has got into trouble. Recently, he's colored off. I learned from Nanny Donna that he hasn't eaten anything for the whole day.”
Bonnie was shocked at first, and a tinge of sadness rose to her. She didn't know the lowered shares of the Grant Group could have such a huge impact on Sebastian.
"Mommy, could you please talk to my dad? He might get sick. I can't afford to lose him.”
Bonnie couldn't resist her tearful, begging eyes, which were like those of a baby seal that begged for food. "Okay, I'll take it to him.”
Joanna held her neck happily. "Really? You need to comfort my dad as much as you can.”
"Okay, I will. Go out to have fun.”
After Joanna went out of the room, Bonnie looked at the stock prices and frowned.
