My Secret Billionaire Husband Chapter 2823: 2833
Previously on My Secret Billionaire Husband...
So what if she found a rich husband?!
Is that something a person would actually say? Isn’t that clearly meant to provoke?!
Well, he had to admit it was pretty impressive…

“Ms. Joanna, gentlemen, please make yourselves at home. If there’s anything you need, don’t hesitate to let me know,” Mr. Canton said after showing them to the private room.
Porter slumped onto the sofa like a boneless sack of potatoes. He then let out a “wow” and exclaimed, “The treatment from the Lady Boss is truly different! This private room is incredibly spacious and luxurious. Joanna, I’ve made up my mind, I’m sticking with you from now on. How about I start calling you ‘Joanna’? Is that okay?”
Joanna glanced at his theatrics and rolled her eyes with a smile. “I don’t mind you tagging along, but I suspect your agent might have something to say about it.”
“Who cares what he thinks? He can’t control me. Anyway, I’m just going to follow you!”
“Alright,” Joanna replied after a moment of mock contemplation. “I’ll have someone draft up a contract for you later. You can become my artist and make money for me. I promise to ensure you live a life of absolute luxury.”
“Deal! But remember, you made that promise, and there’s no going back!”
Kelvin Norman observed the two playfully bantering and shook his head with a smile.
Fortunately, Joanna’s husband wasn’t present.
Otherwise, Porter would have no idea how he’d meet his end.
Joanna’s husband… he’s an extremely jealous man, and incredibly possessive of her.
It was also fortunate that Porter harbored no ulterior motives toward Joanna; otherwise, he would have certainly suffered a much worse fate.
The President of Heath Group shows absolutely no mercy to men who harbor desires for his wife.
He even ended his many years of brotherhood with Young Master Parker just like that.
One could only imagine how he would treat an outsider.
Although both parties had publicly denied the rumors and stated they had nothing to do with Joanna, those privy to the inside story understood the true situation clearly.

Standing before the mirror.
Annie Lawrence meticulously applied her makeup. She touched up her face and then turned around, examining her reflection to ensure she looked sufficiently beautiful and alluring. Finally, she picked up her pink crocodile-skin handbag from the sofa.
Two hours prior, she had received a call from David Benington.
He informed her that Frank Parker was in Cascade and would be attending the Ripple Pavilion tonight.
This was her chance to orchestrate an opportunity to be seen by him.
This news was undeniably fantastic for Annie.
Her unexpected encounter with Joanna after such a long absence had reignited old hatreds. The more prosperous Joanna’s life became, the more intense Annie’s hatred and jealousy grew, surpassing even her previous feelings.
The better Joanna’s life became,
The more she loathed her to the very core.
The more she wished to tear Joanna limb from limb.
Why did that *bitch* effortlessly attain everything she desired?
And yet she…
She lost everything because of that *bitch*.
Compounding the humiliation Joanna had inflicted upon her earlier that day, Annie felt an even greater surge of fury.
She was determined to return every ounce of that humiliation tenfold.
No, she intended to repay it twice over.
She also wanted that *bitch* to experience the agony of being utterly trampled and humiliated at someone else’s whim.
However, her current predicament left her with no outlet to release the pent-up anger within her heart.
What if she harbored an even deeper hatred for Joanna?
What if she desired Joanna’s death?
With the backing of both the White and Heath families behind Joanna,
