<h4>Chapter 1295: Chapter 1291: Don’t me Me For Being Rude</h4>


    "Or do you think, Mom, that the people around Grandma are easily bribed by others?"


    "Mom, you overestimate me. I really don’t have that kind of capability."


    Lady Octavia sneered: "Others may not be capable of such, but I wouldn’t say the same about you."


    "Even a shrewd person like Madam Heath was deceived by you, is there anything you couldn’t do? I advise you to confess now. Your Aunt Delh just said that, considering Ashton’s feelings, she won’t hold it against you. If you admit it now, there won’t be any impact on you. If we find outter, even Madam Heath and Ashton won’t be able to protect you. Moreover, Madam Heath hates being deceived the most. If she finds out that you’ve been scheming against her, do you think you can still stay in the Heath family?"


    "So, if you’re wise, you should confess everything you’ve done."


    Joanna Lawrence wasn’t a fool.


    No matter if she did what they said or not, as long as she admitted, it wouldn’t end well for her.


    Lady Octavia and Lady Delh were just trying to induce a confession through threats and incentives.


    Once she confesses, not to mention what would happen with Ashton Heath, she will definitely lose the affection of Madam Heath.


    Besides, why should she admit to things she didn’t do.


    If Lady Octavia and Lady Delh wanted to pin the me on her, they needed to see if they could make it stick.


    "Mom, if you have any doubts about the paternity test, you can ask Grandma. The fact that Jeremy is the child of the Heath family is not something I nned, but something the Heath family confirmed themselves."


    "Grandma admitted to the paternity test, as well as Uncle Damien. They are not people who can be easily fooled. If indeed I divvied up some bribe with the doctor who performed the paternity test, don’t you think they would have discovered it?"


    "You think so highly of my intelligence and cunning, why do you think so little of Grandma and Uncle Damien?"


    "And, you all think Jeremy and I are tirelessly scheming to be part of the Heath family, trying to be part of the upper-ss society. But, neither Jeremy nor I wanted toe this far. Jeremy especially didn’t know anything. If it weren’t for the Heath family wanting to acknowledge him, he would never have known he’s part of the Heath family in his life."


    Lady Octavia’s face darkened, "Humph," where would she believe Joanna’s words, "Quite the silver tongue you have there. That’s how you tricked my son and Madam Heath. Do you think I am like Ashton and Madam Heath, susceptible to being fooled by you at will?"


    "Joanna Lawrence, let me tell you, if you’re not honest today. Don’t me me for being rude!"


    "Joanna," as soon as Lady Octavia finished ying bad cop, Lady Delh stepped in to y good cop. "Just tell us now. It’s just us here, once you say it’s over, neither your sister-inw nor I will hold you responsible."


    "If this gets to Madam Heath, then no one will be able to protect you."


    "We intentionally asked you toe back when Madam Heath wasn’t here, all for your sake. Regard what’s good for you and don’t reject the kindness your sister-inw and I are offering."


    "My words are still the same as before." said Joanna Lawrence calmly, "I didn’t do what you alleged. If you ask a hundred times, a thousand times, my answer will still be the same."


    "You..."
