Joanna Haynes tossed and turned but was unable to fall asleep. She forced herself to stop thinking about Bruce Everett.

She kept tossing until past 11 pm, but she was still not sleepy at all. Her body was clearly extremely exhausted, yet she could not sleep well when she had something on her mind.

In particular, when she had to go to Venturas to meet Jaydon Grimm’s family the next day, it made her feel even more

uneasy.

Rumble…

When Joanna heard her stomach rumble, she realized that she had not eaten for the entire day.

Thereafter, Joanna went into the kitchen and prepared to make something to cat.

Miranda heard the commotion and quickly came out of her room. “Joann, are you hungry?”

“Mm–hmm.”

Miranda quickly took over what Joanna was doing. “Take a rest. I’ll make you some macaroni and cheese now.”

“Alright!”

Soon, a plate of mouth–watering macaroni and cheese was served up.

“Joann, cat it while it’s hot. This is your favorite macaroni and cheese.”

Joanna smiled. “Thank you, Miranda!”

Following that, Joanna picked up her spoon and started scooping the cheesy goodness into her mouth.

Home–baked macaroni and cheese tasted so much better than other commercial varieties and had a better texture. It was definitely more tasty than those factory mass–produced versions.

As Miranda watched Joanna scooping big mouthfuls of macaroni and cheese into her mouth by the side, she smiled with gratification.

“Mm–hmm. It’s delicious. Miranda, your culinary skills are getting better and better,” Joanna gave her praise in between mouthfuls.

Miranda was silent for a long time. Finally, she could not resist saying, “Joann, marriage is not child’s play. Have you really thought it through?”

Joanna was taken aback and subconsciously stuffed a piece of bacon silently into her mouth.

“I watched you grow up. I, more than anyone else, want you to be happy.”

Joanna smiled gently. “I know.”

Miranda took a deep breath and said cautiously, “Mr. Grimm is a nice man!

“But I have a feeling that he’s not suitable for you.”

“In what way?”

Miranda took a deep breath and said earnestly, “Mr. Grimm was born into that kind of family, and you’re a simple person. You won’t be able to deal with his family.”

Joanna pondered for a while and put down the spoon in her hand. “After we get married, we’ll just live our own lives! We won’t interact too much with his family.”

“Although that may be the case, with the way wealthy families operate, how can you two stay out of the fray unless he completely cuts ties with his family?

“The Grimm family is too complicated. As they say, chaos happens when there are too many people. Moreover, his siblings don’t have the same mother. You won’t have a peaceful life in the future.”

When Joanna heard this, her eyes darkened.
