?Chapter 875:
“Don’t be afraid. Face your fears and ovee them.”
Alice had studied psychology, and her words seemed to help Joanna. She felt a little better after their conversation.
Joanna let out a weary sigh. “I’ll call Norah. She must be worried about me and Susanna.”
They were slumped on a bench by the roadside.
“It’s strange. Why can’t I get through to Norah? Is she in the shower?”
Joanna mumbled to herself as she called Norah again, but the phone remained unanswered.
Alice trusted Norahpletely. She gently patted Joanna’s shoulder and said, “She’s probably just busy. Let’s go!”
Norah had been fine even during gunfire, so Alice didn’t see any reason for Joanna to worry. She didn’t want Joanna to overthink.
After a brief moment of thought, Joanna agreed. She believed Norah was invincible and decided to call her again once she got home.
The next day, Joanna got up, descending the stairs with a sense of unease. Her family was having breakfast at the table.
Joanna seemed to have breakfast at the table for the first time since Madeline’s miscarriage. Everyone was astonished to see her, wondering if she had truly thought everything through and started to feel better.

Alice had told Bryson that she wanted to take Joanna out, and thetter seemed much better now. Bryson felt that Alice was indeed capable and wise.
The servants brought breakfast to the table. Joanna took a sip of milk, and the warmth spreading through her stomach made her sigh with contentment.
“Joanna, the weather is nice today. Would you like to go for a walk with your brother?” Raina asked cautiously.
Just then, Joanna’s phone rang. Her eyes widened in surprise before she threw it onto the table, her face darkening instantly.
Bryson picked up the phone and nced at the message.
“It’s from the Carters.”
He angrily pounded the table. “Joanna didn’t do it, but they keep ming her. This is an insult to us.”
Raina pulled at his arm, subtly gesturing toward Joanna.
“They’re just looking for someone to me. They don’t dare offend the Scott family, so they’ve chosen Joanna as their scapegoat. They think we’re easily manipted.” However, the Andrews family wouldn’t let anyone hurt Joanna.
Raina thought of Kathy, who had visited themst time. She wasn’t surprised to learn that she was from the Carter family. They were all equally shameless.
