My Secret Billionaire Husband-Chapter 1969 - 1963: It’s not as bad as she thought

She was worried that Jeremy would have a hard time adapting.

And that someone might bully Jeremy.

But looking at Jeremy’s current state, he seemed to be quite alright.

It wasn’t as bad as she had thought.

"Tonight, Ashton and I are going to the White family’s place for dinner, and for the next half-month, I’ll be busy promoting my new TV series. So, this is the only time I could squeeze in to see you. Otherwise, it’d be a long time before we could meet again."

"Joanna, are you going to be busy with work again? Didn’t you just finish recording that variety show? Doesn’t your company give you time off?"

"Yeah, it’s not that the company won’t give me time off. It just so happens that I have to promote my new TV series, so I don’t have much time to rest. I just wanted to come and see how you’ve been doing lately."

"I’m doing great." Jeremy smiled, "I eat well, sleep well, and I’m happy every day. Nothing’s wrong."

"Look, I even gained a few pounds recently." Jeremy pinched his own cheek.

"Mhm, you have gained a little weight." Joanna also pinched his cheek and said with a smile, "As long as you’re happy. My greatest wish is for you to be happy every day. However, if anything upsets you, you must tell me."

"Jeremy, we are siblings, whether or not we’ve returned to our biological families. In this lifetime, you’ll always be my brother."

"Joanna, in this lifetime, you’ll always be my sister. In my heart, you’ll always be my real sister." Jeremy held Joanna’s hand, his eyes sparkling with tears.

She patted his head: "That’s right, we’ll always be siblings. So, no matter what happens, you can always talk to me. I don’t want you to keep any unhappy things to yourself." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

"It’s too much to bear when you’re sad all alone."

"That would make me sad."

"Joanna, I know." Jeremy nodded.

"How are you adjusting to your new home? How is Uncle Damien treating you?"

"I’ve gotten used to it. Dad’s pretty good to me. He’s always felt guilty about my mom, so he tries to make up for that through me. On the contrary, he’s so nice to me that I’m not used to it."

"What about... Lady Delilah?" Joanna thought about what Lady Delilah had done to Jeremy’s biological mother and asked worriedly, "She hasn’t done anything bad to you, has she?"

"Her?" Jeremy sneered, his eyes filled with disdain, "I already know all her tricks. Joanna, don’t worry. I can handle her."

Joanna was worried that he might underestimate her.

"Still, you should be careful and not take her lightly. It’s good to be confident, but overconfidence can be dangerous. Be cautious not to fall for other people’s schemes. Lady Delilah’s mind isn’t as simple as you’d think."

"Right, Joanna, don’t worry. After all, I have Ashton, and he’ll help me too. I know what to do, and I’ll protect myself. But you..." Jeremy frowned slightly, "I noticed that your circle is quite chaotic. People keep slandering you. You should be more careful and protect yourself."

Joanna laughed: "That’s just how the entertainment industry is. It means your sister has become famous. If I wasn’t famous, who would care about me? Haven’t you seen how many scandals those famous stars have? The more famous you are, the more likely you are to be attacked."

Jeremy: "..."

He sighed, "If it’s just a slander, that’s fine. I’m scared that something like last time might happen, which could endanger your personal safety. You don’t know how worried I was when I learned that you and Annie had gone to do the show together."
