Chapter 403: Chapter 406: Playing with Joan Wellington

The conversation between the two ended.

From beginning to end, Bella Scott didn’t even know that her daughter had met Uncle Mark before.

Later, when there was no one else in the bedroom, Hannah Ford took out her cell phone and made two calls.

The first call was to Emma Shaw.

Emma Shaw actually didn’t like Hannah Ford much initially.

But later, because she couldn’t stand Lily Gray, she switched sides to Hannah’s team.

Especially after almost causing Lily Gray to have a miscarriage, she tried everything she could to pull her off Mrs. Lucas’ position.

As Aidan Lucas’s aunt, it was easy for Emma Shaw to bring one or two bodyguards to the banquet that evening.

As expected, after Hannah Ford stated her intention, Emma Shaw easily agreed.

She didn’t even ask Hannah why she wanted to sneak someone into the banquet.

Instead, she took pleasure in the idea that Hannah was angry and wanted to cause a scene at the banquet venue.

And the second call, Hannah Ford directly called Joan Wellington.

“Hannah, this matter… is not so good, is it? After all, Brother Ethan is now married to Lily Gray, and I heard that they even have a child…”

On the other side of the phone, Joan Wellington’s voice was hesitant.

“I know.”

Hannah Ford took a breath and sobbed softly.

“Joan, I know that they are already together… I don’t have any other intentions, I just want to see Ethan’s wife with my own eyes. You know, I can’t go back to A City, I just want to see her face in the video and say a few words to her… Just tell her that I am a friend who wants to wish her and Ethan well.”

“This…” Hearing Hannah Ford’s tearful voice, Joan Wellington hesitated.

Actually, Hannah’s request was not too difficult.

As a woman, she could understand the reason behind Hannah’s actions.

The person she liked was marrying another woman, and she had no hope left. At this point, she wanted to see what kind of woman she had lost to.

Hannah asked her to take Lily Gray to a quiet room at the banquet and video call with her.

She wanted to say a few words of blessing as a friend and take a look at Lily Gray in passing.

As long as Hannah didn’t say anything out of line, this request actually wasn’t excessive.

“Joan, I’m sorry… I’m putting you in a difficult position. If it’s inconvenient for you, just forget it…”

Hannah Ford’s tone was sad, as if she was disgusted with herself.

“It’s all my fault for having such a weak body. If I had accepted the surgery earlier when I was in New York a year ago, maybe I would be better by now, and I could go there in person…”

“You… Hannah… don’t say such things!”

Joan Wellington raised her voice when she heard Hannah Ford mention the incident in New York one year ago.

“If it weren’t for me getting angry with you in New York, you wouldn’t have… Hannah, I… Fine, don’t worry, I’ll definitely let you see Lily Gray!”

Joan Wellington still remembered that time in New York. If it weren’t for her unreasonable tantrum, Hannah Ford wouldn’t have missed a suitable heart for transplant.

Although she was capricious and willful, she never intended to hurt anyone.

That incident really made her regret for a long time.
