StartNovelChapter 270 Firecracker
Joyce burst out laughing, but the pain in her side flared, and she winced.
Sebastian kicked Alexander. "See what you did? You made her laugh, now she's hurting."
Alexander shot a glare at Sophia. "What's your problem? You touch it and now want to blow it up? Have some
conscience, Sophia. I've been taking care of you these past few days."
Sophia got even angrier. "Alexander, just wait. I'll deal with you tonight! Now, give the phone to Joyce."
Alexander handed the phone to Joyce and muttered to Sebastian, "Who's gonna marry such a firecracker?"
Sebastian smirked. "Maybe the unlucky guy's right here. My arm hurts, helpout."
Alexander was about to help when he realized Sebastian meant him.
Alexander snorted. "I'm not marrying her."
"Just rub my arm already."
"Get lost! Enough."
While they messed around, Joyce and Sophia chatted.
Sophia, who had just been mad at Alexander, now spoke gently, "Joyce, does your wound still hurt? | sent some

Joyce smiled. "Thanks. Aren't you cold in that outfit? It's freezing outside."
"Eh, it's part of the job. One day you're in a parka, the next you're in a sundress in the snow. Gotta go, they're
calling me. Talk tonight." Sophia hung up and saw Edgar with a cup of hot milk.
Edgar handed it to her. "Sophia, have smilk. It's cold, and you're not dressed warmly."
Sophia smiled. "Thanks, Mr. Moore. I'm fine. When | was an extra, it was tougher. We didn't even have a room
and waited outside all day."
Edgar looked at her kindly. "It won't be like that anymore. Once this movie's out, you'll be famous and get plenty
of roles."
"Hopefully, or my runaway marriage would be for nothing."
"Runaway marriage?" Edgar asked, curious.
Sophia shrugged. "My grandpa arranged a marriage for me. | didn't want it, so | ran away. My family cutoff,
and | had to make it on my own in City B. If Joyce hadn't takenin, I'd have frozen on the streets." Edgar
smiled. "I didn't know that. You're brave. If I'd been like you, my life would be different."
Sophia got interested. "Tellyour story. You seem to have one."
Edgar's face turned somber. "After film school, | had no money or connections, so | couldn't land any roles. Then
my mom got really sick, and to pay her medical bills, | sold myself. | fell in love with my sponsor, and she loved

Edgar smiled bitterly. "She's too proud to forgive me. I've tried, but it's no use."
"Who is she? Srich family's daughter?"
Edgar hesitated, then said, "Forget it. Her family is out of our league."
Sophia wanted to ask more, but the director called out, "You two, hurry up. Finish shooting so we can have
lunch."
Joyce stayed in the hospital for over a month for safety reasons. She was finally discharged when fully recovered,
and her baby bump was showing at over four months.
After being cooped up, Joyce was eager to get out. When they passed a mall, she looked at Sebastian. "Honey, |
want to check out sbaby stuff and eat here."
Sebastian, worried about safety, wanted to refuse, but her hopeful look melted him. He pinched her cheek and
said, "Don't run around. We need to take care of the baby, okay?" Joyce nodded. "I know."

They parked in the mall's underground lot. Sebastian helped Joyce out, and bodyguards followed them. They
headed straight to the baby store.
Joyce adored the cute clothes and looked up at Sebastian. "Honey, do you think our baby will be a boy or a girl?"

happiness and stroked her head. "If you like, we can buy them all. Even if our baby can't use them now, there's
always the future."
Joyce's eyes sparkled. "But I'm not easy to conceive. I'm afraid this might be my only chance."
Sebastian reassured her. "You will. I'm so capable; | can give you as many as you want."
Joyce laughed. "You're so naughty, but | do want a few more babies."
They bought a lot and had the bodyguards take it to the car. Then they went upstairs for a meal.
As they left, Logan Hayes watched them from the shadows with a sinister look. "Sebastian, you want a happy
life? No way."
His assistant whispered, "Mr. Hayes, their security is tight. We can't get close."
"Cordelia isn't dead yet. We'll use her again."
"But her crimes are proven. Her trial is next month, and she's facing the death penalty. How can we get her out?"
Logan sneered. "Where there's a will, there's a way." He whispered instructions to his assistant, Karl Mitchell.
Karl looked at him in disbelief. "Mr. Hayes, that's a brilliant move."
