Chapter 140

She gambled that Joshua would stop her from taking her clothes off.

It was exactly as she thought. As soon as she undid a button, Joshua sald in a deep voice, “No need

“If you think I’m lying, you can go to the hospital to check the records. It’s the private hospital that I told

you about before. You can check for my name on the records,” Jayleen still had tears on her face

Hearing this, Joshua wondered for the first time whether her words were true or not, and finally said, “I

will investigate.”

“Okay.” Jayleen nodded calmly.

That hospital was a private hospital owned by that person. Even if Joshua checked, he would only find

the results they wanted

for him.

Seeing her calm expression, Joshua asked deeply, “If that’s the case, why did you lie to me that you

were cured?”

Because I love you, I want to be with you. Anyway, I’m going to die in a few months, I want to marry

you, I want to die without regrets.” Only half of what she said was true, and then she began to lie again.

“Jayleen.” Joshua’s voice was deep, and he did not know how to describe his emotions.

‘I know you don’t believe me, I’ll wait for you. Come back to me after you have checked everything out.”

Jayleen returned the phone to him with a frank look in her eyes.

Joshua took it and glanced at the photo that was still lit

Jayleen seemed to know what he cared about and continued, “This photo is also real. At first, I planned

to wait for death slowly, but he persuaded me to go for surgery and spent that time with me. We dated

for a week and later found out that we were not suited for each other, so we split up

“If you are bothered by it, I can leave now.” Jayleen retreated.

It had to be said that her acting was excellent.

Joshua was clearly tricked. 1

If Jayleen insisted that the photo was fake, he might still have doubts, but now, she was saying that it

was genuine. He did not

know what to do next.

“Since it’s real, why do you say that Cynthia photoshopped it?”

Jayleen did not speak

This silence made Joshua aware of the problem.

His words and attitude toward Cynthia affected the views of people around him on Cynthia. He had

wronged Cynthia in the past, so Jayleen must now feel that Cynthia was an easy target to bully.

“I only have five months. I don’t need to marry you, but I really want to be with you, even if it’s just a

five–month relationship ” Jayleen changed the subject.

“I’ll check it out.” Joshua stood up, holding the document bag, but did not say anything else.

Jayleen’s gaze fell on the document, and she said after some deliberation, “The medical record in your

document bag is fake. Throw it away.”

“This is a company document. It’s not a medical record.” Joshua did not hide it from her.

After speaking, he left her residence.

He did not ask how she managed to falsify medical records, and he did not want to know.

The moment the door closed, Jayleen finally broke down her disguise. She leaned on the sofa,

exhausted, her back covered in a cold sweat, her lips bloodless.

She wondered how she survived just now.

When she thought about Joshua, the man who could easily see through her, she could not help being

afraid that the lie would be exposed

After a short rest, she just took out her mobile phone, entered the previous number, and dialed it.

That was her last resort. If she did not do this, her future days would be hell
