The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna)

Chapter 372 Gasp! Bruce Everett frowned in pain. The oil that splashed out had scalded his arm until a few blisters appeared.

Joanna Haynes quickly turned off the gas stove. “Did you get scalded?” Gasp! Gasp! Bruce took two deep breaths.

“Quick! Let me take a look!” Joanna lowered her head to check. There were a few blisters on his arm, and his blue veins were bulging. Does it hurt?” “What do you think?” Bruce blurted angrily.

“How dumb!” That was Joanna's conclusion. She quickly turned on the tap and rinsed his arm with cold water.

“Be gentle. It hurts!” “Put some ice on it later. It'll be fine in two days.” Bruce frowned and refused to relent. “Put it on for me.” *Fine! You are really born to live like a prince.” Joanna gave a sigh and opened the fridge to get some ice.

Then, she put the ice cubes in an ice bag and applied it to his blisters.

Bruce wasn't that squeamish, and the pain was within tolerable limits. However, he just enjoyed tormenting Joanna He liked the feeling of Joanna focusing all her attention on him.

“Can you be gentler? You're hurting me.” Joanna gently blew on his arm. “Is it really that painful?” As he watched Joanna's anxious and earnest expression, Bruce felt extremely pleased inwardly.

“Of course!” Bruce extended both arms in front of Joanna petulantly and enjoyed her gentle service with a clear conscience.

Near the kitchen door, when the servants saw that Bruce was scalded, they were so frightened that their skins tensed up. “Mr.

Everett has been scalded. Quickly inform the family doctor to come here.” “Go get the burn cream and disinfecting wipes quickly.” “Alright.” After a while, the head servant rushed into the kitchen with the burn cream. “Mr. Everett, the burn cream is here! Dr. Henley is here too.” When Joanna heard this, she immediately stopped what she was doing. That's good. Let the doctor apply the medicine for you!” Bruce's expression sank. He glanced at the servant ominously. “Who told you to come in? Get out.” The head servant was stunned. “Oh, sure.” The head servant quickly excused herself from the kitchen.

She was really totally lacking in perception. Her attempt to flatter her employer had failed big time.

After leaving the kitchen, the head servant was so frightened that she couldn't help muttering to herself, “It's over, it's over. I've disrupted Mr. Everett's flirting with Miss Haynes. Will | get fired?” When the other servant heard this, she couldn't help but say, “Seriously, why didn’t you knock before you entered?” “I was in a hurry to deliver the cream to Mr. Everett, so | didn’t take the trouble to knock on the door... The head servant was so anxious that she was about to cry! She genuinely only wanted to go in and deliver the cream. She had no intention of interrupting Mr. Everett's enjoyment! Although Bruce had a bad temper, he was still the richest man in Greyport.

He was very generous. The assistants and bodyguards working by his side earned three times the market rate. Moreover, all kinds of bonuses and benefits were very good.

Therefore, even being a servant in the Everett family’s residence was much better than being a senior executive in an ordinary company! After the servant left, Bruce pouted and urged Joanna, “You're not done yet. Continue!” “It's okay now. You'll be fine in two days!” “How is it okay? It still hurts a lot!” Bruce said petulantly as he looked at Joanna with an aggrieved expression.

When she saw his reaction, Joanna could not help feeling goosebumps erupting all over her body! Chapter 372 She was still more used to Bruce's icy aloofness and overbearing demeanor.

“Do it yourself!” Bruce put his arm on her shoulder. “It really hurts!” As he said that, he deliberately stumbled and pinned Joanna against the kitchen counter. He looked at her with two blazing eyes.

“Stop fooling around. Get off me quickly. Joanna felt as if an electric current had shot through her entire body as she hurriedly tried to push Bruce away.

Bruce's body seemed to possess some magnetic field. As soon as he approached, Joanna subconsciously became nervous and terrified! It was probably due to the lingering fear left from the past which she still could not get rid of it.

Bruce lowered his head and smiled gently and suggestively. “Joanna, don’t leave tonight, okay?” Joanna had nowhere to retreat. She could only brace herself and pushed him away. She tried her best not to get too close to him. “You're crazy. Get off me quickly.” Beep! Beep! Beep! Right at this moment, Joanna's phone rang.

“Get off me now. | have to answer the call.” With that, Joanna pushed Bruce away with great force.

When she checked her phone, the call was from Jaydon Grimm.

Joanna's expression changed at once, but she still muted the phone and did not dare to answer.

When he saw this. Bruce instantly turned into a green—eyed monster. “Who called?” “None of your business.” “It's Jaydon Grimm, that son of a bitch, again, isn’t it?” Joanna took a deep breath and did not say anything.

Whenever Jaydon Grimm’s name was mentioned, it was as if Bruce's tail had been stepped on. He would blow his top and stir up all kinds of trouble.

“It's already very late. | have to go back!” “Joanna, can you stay here for a night and accompany the children? Don’t worry. | will definitely not do anything to you...” Joanna interrupted him and replied icily, “I really can’t. I still have to wake up early tomorrow.” With that, Joanna took off her apron and walked toward the living room.

The children had already finished their dumplings. When they saw that their Mommy was about to leave, they became upset at once. “Mommy, don’t leave!” “Be good. Mommy will come and visit you another day.” “Mommy...

“Be good!” Joanna squatted down and kissed each of the three little fellows on the face.

Then, she patiently explained to the children, “Mommy really has to go back. | still have to work tomorrow. You're all big children now. You understand Mommy, don’t you?” Davian and Irvin exchanged looks with each other and said with disappointment, ... Alright! Goodbye, Mommy.” The three little fellows had known since they were young that their Mommy had to work hard to earn money to support them.

Thus, all three had developed a habit of obediently listening to their Mommy from a young age. In particular, when their Mommy had to go to work, the little fellows would not make a fuss.

When Bruce saw that Joanna was determined to leave, he did not dare to force her to stay even though he was displeased.

Now, he understood Joanna's temperament and knew that she hated his overbearing manner.

Hence, he had no choice but to use the soft approach. “I'll send you back!” “No need. I'll get Tatiana to come fetch me.” “It's already so late. It's inconvenient for her if you ask her to drive here. Let me send you back!” Bruce insisted on driving Joanna back.

“Alright!” Joanna hesitated for a few seconds before agreeing reluctantly.

The three little fellows waved goodbye to Joanna. “Goodbye, Mommy!” Chapter 372 “Bye, my babies.” In the car, Bruce drove silently with a somewhat sullen face.

Joanna was also silent as she looked out of the window.

Beep! Beep! Beep! Joanna's phone rang again. As before, the call was from Jaydon. Joanna muted the call again.

Forty minutes later, outside Ona Place.

Bruce drove to the entrance of the neighborhood district.

“Is this the place?” “Mm—hmm. Yes. Just stop here, it's good enough!” Joanna did not deliberately hide her residential address.

If Bruce wanted to look for her, he could always find a way to locate her residential address. Therefore, there was no need to hide it.

Bang! Joanna got out of the car and slammed the door shut vehemently.

Bruce rolled down the window and leaned out. A sly smile appeared on his handsome face. “Joanna, be careful!” Joanna turned around and flashed him a faint smile. “You too!” “And | won't stop you from dating Jaydon Grimm. However, you mustn't let him touch you before you guys get your marriage certificate.” Joanna frowned wordlessly. She did not know how to answer him.

When he saw that Joanna was silent, Bruce smiled in a sinister manner. “Before you two get married, if you dare to let Jaydon Grimm touch you, | will cripple him and make you regret it for the rest of your life.” When Joanna heard this, goosebumps rose all over her body inexplicably. This bastard Bruce Everett had always kept his word.

It seemed that it would not be so easy to get rid of him completely.

“Are you crazy? Do you think everyone is as wanton as you?” Joanna retorted angrily and left without looking back.

As he watched Joanna's departing back profile, Bruce lit a cigarette and took a deep puff.

In the past, he would have tried his best to stop Joanna from associating intimately with Jaydon.

However, now, it was no longer necessary! Bruce would soon let Joanna see Jaydon’s true colors. At that point, he did not believe that she would still want to be with Jaydon.

Joanna Haynes, you are mine. You can only belong to me for the rest of your life.” Joanna had just stepped inside her home when the phone rang again.

“Hello, Jay!” On the other end of the line, Jaydon’s worried voice rang out. “Joann, what are you busy with? Why didn’t you answer your phone for so long?” “Oh, | was busy outside just now and didn’t hear your call!” “Are you very busy?” “Mm—hmm. A little “Don't tire yourself out!” Jaydon’s voice was as gentle and seductive as ever.

He genuinely loved Joanna.

However, in his mind, love and desire could be separated. He loved Joanna, but that did not mean that he did not have designs on other women.
