"Well, he’s got sothing going on and left a while ago."
"Oh." Joanna thought about the encounter with Lady Octavia in the maternity store and hesitated whether to tell Aria or not.
From what Lady Octavia implied, she intended to co over to see the baby.
However.
Aria and Lady Octavia are not in good terms right now, and when she cos, it may lead to argunts and conflicts.
After so thought, she decided to ntion it.
"Aria, I bumped into Lady Octavia at the maternity store. She said she’d be coming to see Stacy in the next couple of days."
"She wants to see Stacy?" Aria’s face, initially filled with laughter as she was peeling an orange for Joanna, lost its smile completely in the next second.
"Yes, I heard her say so to soone else."
"Soone else?" Aria turned her head. "Who are you talking about?"
"A woman nad Diana Kinsman." Joanna had no secrets from Aria, so she told her about Diana Kinsman joining forces with Kelloway Group to secretly counter Heath Group.
A mont later.
Aria exclaid in surprise: "So, this Diana’s target is the Heath family? What is her grudge against them and why is her identity so hard to find, even using the Heath family’s power can’t figure out who she is?"
"Yes, from what we know so far, her target is indeed the Heath family. As for what grudge she has against them, we don’t know without clarifying her identity. But she’s definitely not simple; the first ti I saw her, I felt really uneasy."
Aria’s expression beca a bit solemn: "Hearing you talk about her, this person indeed doesn’t seem simple. If even the Heath family’s power can’t find her, she must have a strong background. A powerful person with an unclear identity targeting the Heath family sounds quite dangerous to ."
"Her getting close to Lady Octavia can’t be for any good reason."
"Right." Joanna nodded and said, "Just don’t know what she’s up to. The Kelloway Group has already been acquired by the Heath Group, so she’s definitely looking for a new business partner. This dangerous person has now beco Lady Octavia’s good friend, I always feel that she might want to do sothing through Lady Octavia."
"That’s what I was thinking too." Aria agreed, "She must be trying to use Lady Octavia for sothing. No, we can’t let Lady Octavia keep in touch with her anymore; otherwise, I’m really worried about the safety of the rest of us."
"Baby, we have to let Lady Octavia know that this Diana is not a good person."

Joanna accompanied Aria all afternoon, and Ashton picked her up after work. The couple stayed for dinner before leaving.
In the car.
Joanna was looking at the dark night outside the window, feeling an inexplicable uneasiness in her heart.
This uneasiness only started after eting Diana and Lady Octavia.
"Ashton, I t Mom today when I went to the maternity store to buy a gift for Stacy." Joanna suppressed the inexplicable uneasiness in her heart and withdrew her gaze from the window.
"You t Mom? She was at the maternity store too?" Ashton’s tone was very calm, and no emotions could be discerned.
"Yes, it seems she was also buying a gift for Stacy."
"She’s buying a gift for Stacy? Didn’t Brandon forbid her from seeing Stacy?"
"Although Brandon forbids her from seeing Stacy, she’s still Stacy’s grandma after all. She might want to take a look at her granddaughter."
