<h4>Chapter 1292: Chapter 1288: Coming for Jeremy Lawrence</h4>
"Ms. Joanna." Tedd greeted her respectfully when he saw her. He nced into the car and, seeing that she was the only one who came back, couldn’t help but ask, "Did Mr. Ashton note back with you, Ms. Joanna?"
"He’s at work; I came back by myself."
As Joanna walked inside, she asked Tedd, "Is there anything going on at home?"
Lady Octavia had taken the initiative to call her and invite her to lunch, and her attitude had been unusually friendly.
This made Joanna feel a little strange.
"Madam Heath is not at home today, and there’s nothing going on at home. Why did you suddenly think ofing back on your own, Ms. Joanna? Did youe back to see Madam Heath? You should have called in advance to ask; then you wouldn’t have made the trip for nothing."
Joanna paused.
She turned to look at Tedd, her eyebrows furrowing: "Grandma is not at home?"
"Yes," Tedd replied respectfully, "Madam Heath goes to the temple every first and fifteenth of the month and stays there for a day. She just left not long ago."
Joanna pursed her lips.
So, Lady Octavia called her just after Madam Heath had left?
Lady Octavia had specifically chosen a time when Madam Heath was not at home to invite Joanna back, which made her more vignt. She said to Tedd, "My mom called me toe back for lunch. I thought it was Madam Heath’s idea, but she’s not even at home."
"Lady Octavia called you?" Tedd pondered for a moment before saying, "Perhaps she has something to tell you. Oh, right, Lady Delh is also here. You haven’t met Lady Delh yet, have you?"
"Lady Delh?"
"Yes, the wife of our Sir Damien, which makes her your second aunt."
Joanna’s expression changed slightly.
She suddenly had a bad feeling.
Lady Delh might havee for Jeremy.
Lady Octavia had called her because of Lady Delh.
Joanna thought for a moment and asked, "Is Uncle Damien here?"
"Only Lady Delh came; Sir Damien is not here." Tedd hesitated for a moment and then decided to warn her, "Ms. Joanna, Lady Delh might havee because of Mr. Jeremy. Lady Delh is... not someone easy to deal with, and since Mr. Jeremy is the offspring of Sir Damien’s extramarital... Anyway, just try to go along with her and speak nicely."
Tedd spoke euphemistically, but Joanna understood.
Jeremy was the illegitimate child of Sir Damien and another woman - an ugly truth.
For Lady Delh, this was definitely not something easy to ept.
Both Madam Heath and Sir Damien were very willing to have Jeremy acknowledge his ancestry.
After all, for them, one was their own grandson, and the other was their own son - both were rted by blood.
But Jeremy and Lady Delh had no blood rtion.
"You don’t need to worry too much, Ms. Joanna." Perhaps observing her anxiety, Tedd reassured her gently, "Lady Delh might have juste to learn more from you about the situation. You and Mr. Jeremy have grown up together and have always had a very good rtionship, so you must know him very well."
"Lady Delh couldn’t approach Mr. Jeremy directly, so she came to you instead."
"Besides, no matter how Lady Delh feels, once Madam Heath has stated her wishes, she wouldn’t dare say anything more."
