Chapter 314
Shelly was the first to see Joyce and she hurriedly nudged Jacqueline, "Mom, isn't that Joyce? Why did
she come to the hospital?"
Jacqueline had been having neck pain lately, which then gave her a lot of headache, and she had
trouble sleeping at night.
She was scheduled to come to St. Maria Hospital today for her regular physical therapy appointment.
Following the direction of Shelly's finger, Jacqueline saw Joyce standing in the middle of the hallway, This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
glowering.
"It's bad luck, she's everywhere. She was kidnapped and survived. She just won’t die, right?" Shelly
pouted and complained. She naturally wanted Joyce dead. No matter who it was that killed Joyce, as
long as she was killed, the shares of R&S Group that Joyce inherited could be returned to them.
Jacqueline naturally hoped that something would happen to Joyce, and after learning that Joyce had
been kidnapped, she was not worried at all and was even somewhat expecting it.
But to her surprise, Joyce actually came back alive.
Although she had already learned from the police department that Joyce was still alive. But seeing
Joyce alive in front of her with her own eyes, it was still hard for her to hide her disappointment and
resentment.
Jacqueline quickened her paces and pulled Shelly with her to the front of Joyce.
"What are you doing in the hospital?" Jacqueline gathered her coiffure and looked around, glaring
suspiciously at Joyce.
The third floor was for obstetrics and gynecology, orthopedics, and physical therapy only. What could
Joyce have done when she came here?
Joyce heard a familiar voice ringing in her ears.
She came back to her senses instantly. Hell, what was she doing?
She hurriedly stuffed the ultrasound report into her carry-on satchel, not wanting Jacqueline and Shelly
to know about her pregnancy.
"Gastroenteritis, just come here for some medicine." Joyce casually lied. Fortunately the
gastroenterology department was also on the third floor, and at the very inside, otherwise she really
couldn't think of an excuse for a while - why she appeared in the corridor near the obstetrics and
gynecology department.
Although, the fact that she was more than three months pregnant, she had not been able to digest it
herself.
But whatever, she must not let the two in front of her know. Otherwise, there would just be more and
more problems.
"Gastroenteritis?" Shelly looked at Joyce with contempt, "I heard you were kidnapped? Is that true? I
see that you are in good shape? It doesn't look like you've been tortured at all. It's not as if you've been
leading your own show, is it?"
"I'm back alive, and I'm sorry to disappoint you. A show? You have a great imagination. Should I give
you a part in it too?"
Joyce returned a blank stare to Shelly.
She just knew they would never say any nice words.
"You!" Shelly gasped.
"How can you say something like that? Don’t you think you need to respect me? Not even a greeting
when you see me?" Jacqueline accused with dissatisfaction.
Theoretically she had never been able to take advantage of Joyce but by virtue of her status as an
elder.
"Oh, I'm sorry, elders are meant to respect and love their juniors, not to pick a fight. I thought we were
strangers, so there was no need for us to say hello." Joyce smiled coldly, "If there's nothing else, I'll
leave first."
"You!" Joyce didn’t even leave Jacqueline with a chance to speak.
"How dare you talk to my mother like that." Shelly shouted, and she raised her hand to slap Joyce in
the face.
