Chapter 1294: Chapter 1290: The Wishful Calculation is Really Well Played
Lady Octavia would say these words in front of her daughter-in-law.
"Mom." Joanna ignored Lady Octavia’s sarcasm, withdrew her gaze from Lady Delilah, and asked directly, "You called me back, is there something wrong?"
Lady Octavia looked at her indifferent attitude as if she didn’t care about anything, and couldn’t help but be even angrier.
Before, because of Madam Heath’s presence, she dared not go too far.
And before, Joanna always came back with Ashton Heath.
Lady Octavia knew her son’s character and how much Ashton protected Joanna, so she couldn’t do too much in front of Ashton.
But now, neither Madam Heath nor Ashton were around.
Lady Octavia had no scruples.
Her face darkened, and she threw the coffee shop’s phone to the ground.
With a "crack" sound.
The hot coffee spilled all over the floor, and the white jade-colored porcelain cup shattered.
Even though Joanna and Lady Octavia were some distance apart, Joanna could still feel the coffee splattering on her leg.
The several maids standing in the hall, including Tedd who had not left yet, were startled by Lady Octavia’s sudden action.
Lady Delilah was also stunned for a moment, but her expression quickly returned to normal.
Joanna looked down at the spilled coffee and the shattered porcelain cup, and after a moment of silence, she slowly raised her head.
She looked fearlessly at Lady Octavia.
Lady Octavia’s long-held anger erupted at this moment.
After smashing the cup, she stared at Joanna with cold eyes and gritted her teeth as she spoke word by word: "You still ask me what’s the matter. Joanna, are you playing dumb with me? I ask you, what’s the deal with Jeremy?"
Joanna calmly replied, "I don’t know what mom is talking about."
"Don’t play dumb with me!" Lady Octavia said coldly, "From the moment you first brought Jeremy home, I knew you were planning something. I didn’t expect your ambition to be so great, not only did you schemingly marry my son, but now you also want to arrange your brother into the Heath family."
"You heard that Uncle Damien has no children, so you wanted your brother to masquerade as a Heath. In this way, if your plan succeeds, both of you will have successfully entered upper-class society, and if Jeremy is recognized as a Heath, it will even secure your position within the Heath family."
"Joanna, your plotting is really good. However, do you think that just because you’ve fooled Ashton and Madam Heath with their trust in you, you can fool everyone else? Today, you will explain to me clearly how you bribed the doctor to make that paternity test."
At this time, Lady Delilah also spoke: "Joanna, if you confess honestly, for Ashton’s sake, I will not hold this against you this time."
"Did you hear that? Gia said, don’t you quickly confess!"
Joanna guessed that they wanted to discuss Jeremy’s situation with her, but she didn’t expect Lady Octavia and Lady Delilah to doubt Jeremy’s identity.
They even suspected that she had bribed the Heath family’s doctor and falsified the paternity test.
She found it both amusing and infuriating, but when she spoke, her voice was still calm: "Mom, Lady Delilah, I think you might have heard some nonsense somewhere, so you have such a misunderstanding about me. The paternity test for Jeremy was arranged by Grandma. I didn’t even know she was going to do the paternity test for him before I brought him home."
