The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna)

Comment Chapter 379 Chapter 379 “Push Mr. Everett to the ward first!” “We'll need to hang up two more intravenous drips for him later.” “Got it, Dr. Marlow.” A few nurses wheeled Bruce Everett to the VIP ward.

Then, they transferred him to the hospital bed.

“We have to leave someone here to watch over him. Which one of you will stay?” Andy gave Joanna Haynes an eye signal. “Miss Haynes, why don't you take care of Mr. Everett? When he wakes up you with him, he will feel much more at ease.” Joanna hesitated for a moment before agreeing. “Alright” On the hospital bed. Bruce lay in a daze.

His face was ashen and sallow, and his complexion was unprecedentedly sickly.

and sces Joanna's heart was filled with mixed feelings. She felt as if her heart had been pricked by a thorn. It was not particularly painful, but it was still extremely uncomfortable.

“Bruce, can you not behave in this manner? “I feel really terrible when | see you like this!” Joanna sat in front of the hospital bed and could not help muttering to herself.

At five in the morning...

“Joanna. Joanna...” Bruce shifted his body groggily and mumbled indistinctly.

Joanna had been keeping watch and did not sleep a wink. When she heard the sound, she quickly leaned close to check.

“You're awake?” Bruce opened his eyes drowsily. When he saw Joanna, his eyes subconsciously sparkled.

He asked in a faint, weak voice, “Why are you here? Where am 1?” Joanna frowned slightly. “You are in a hospital!” “Hospital? Ouch...” “Don’t move!” Bruce let out a long breath wordlessly. He was in so much pain that his eyebrows were knitted together.

He was in low spirits yesterday and only wanted to drink. After a drinking binge, he blacked out and had no recollection of what happened.

Joanna tidied up his blanket which had slipped off and said helplessly, “How should I tick you off? You know that your stomach isn't good, so why did you still drink so much? “You almost lost your life last time. Why didn’t you learn your lesson back then?” When Bruce heard this, his eyes could not help turning red—rimmed.

Joanna's words ignited some hope in him. He took a deep breath and looked at Joanna intently with a sorrowful expression.

“Joanna, you can’t marry someone else. | won't allow you to marry someone else! “If you marry someone else, I'll go crazy!” Bruce struggled to sit up as he said this.

“Bruce, lie down quickly!” Bruce gasped and held Joanna's hand tightly. “Joanna, | really love you!” “Don't say such things anymore. You're really making things difficult for me.” “Joanna, you clearly still love me. Stop lying to yourself.

“You won't be happy if you marry him.” Joanna pulled her hand back brusquely. “Don’t say anymore. If you keep saying such things, I'll really leave this place now.” When Bruce heard this, his eyes misted over. “... Alright, | won't say anymore! Don’t leave. | just want to take a few more looks at you.

“Don't talk so much. Rest well.” Chapter 379 At eight o'clock in the morning...

Beep! Beep! Beep! Bruce's phone rang.

“Bruce, your phone is ringing.” Joanna handed the phone to Bruce. She took a look at the video call. It was a call from their daughter! Thus, Joanna answered the call. “Hello, baby.” Lilia’s warm voice rang out from the other end of the line. “Mommy, why is it you? Where's Daddy?” “Oh, what's up?” “Gael told me that Daddy didn’t come back last night. | am very worried about Daddy, so | am calling Daddy to ask.” “Baby, you're such a good girl. Daddy is here,” Joanna said and directed the phone camera at Bruce.

It had to be said that Bruce was very willing to move heaven and earth for his daughter. Joanna tried to persuade Bruce not to drink, but she was unable to move him at all.

Perhaps if his daughter try to persuade him, it might work.

Lilia’s eyes widened in shock when she saw her Daddy lying on the hospital bed. “Mommy, what's wrong with Daddy?” “Daddy... got sick from drinking too much.” When Lilia heard this, her tiny face turned pale from fright. “Oh? Is Daddy alright?” Bruce glared at Joanna viciously and grumbled softly. “Why are you telling our daughter this?” “Since | can't talk you out of drinking, | can only let Lilia try.” As she spoke, Joanna looked at the phone screen again. “Lilia, see? Daddy is sick from drinking.

“Quickly persuade Daddy not to drink anymore in the future.” Lilia pouted with her tiny mouth and said to Bruce petulantly in a childish voice, “Daddy, you have to be obedient and not drink, okay? Drinking is not good for your health. Your baby Lilia doesn’t want Daddy to be sick!” When he saw his daughter's adorable face, Bruce's heart softened. “It's okay, baby. Don’t worry too much.” “Daddy, are you in the hospital? | want to visit you.” Bruce pacified her gently, “Mm-hmm, be good and stay at home, baby! Daddy will be back soon.” “Mm—hmm!” After ending the video call, Bruce quietly looked at Joanna. “Great. You have successfully destroyed my image in my daughter's mind!” Joanna replied helplessly, “Have a look yourself. The children are all worried about you.” Bruce's eyes were a little bloodshot, but he did not know what to say.

“Since you're awake, | think you're probably better now.

“I'm leaving now. Take care of yourself.” “Joanna... Bruce wanted to say something but hesitated. “Can you spend more time with me?” Joanna's face clouded over, but she still rejected his request ruthlessly. “I'm sorry. | really have to go.

“I'll come and visit you another day when | have time.” Although Joanna was worried, she was still determined to leave the hospital.

If Jaydon found out, he would probably think too much.

She didn’t want more trouble to crop up! Joanna had just left the hospital when her phone rang.

Beep! Beep! Beep! “Hello, Jay “Joann, was everything okay last night?” “It's okay!” “Did you not sleep well? Why are your eyes so red-rimmed?” Joanna rubbed her eyes and said vaguely, “Oh, | didn’t sleep well yesterday.” 10.27 Chapter 379 We're going to try on the wedding gown today. Where are you now? I'll pick you up later.” “Oh, I'll go over in the afternoon! I still have to go to the office in the morning.” “Alright! I'll pick you up this afternoon.” “Mm—hmun.” At 9.30 am, at the office of the Haynes Group.” When Joanna arrived at the office, it was already well past nine o'clock.

Mr. Roger and Mr. Paul had completed the handover of their work over the past few days, and the management staff had to be reshumed.

Currently, the company only had two shareholders, namely Joanna Haynes and Caleb Harrison.

As Joanna had pledged 30% of her stake as collateral, she only held 25% of the company’s shares at the moment.

As a result, Caleb became the company’s largest shareholder. However, currently, Joanna was still holding the position of CEO.

In the office, Luna walked in with a stack of documents.

“Miss Haynes, why are you so late today?” “Oh, there was a traffic jam on the way so | was delayed.” “Here are the information for today and some contracts.” “Got it. Leave them here for now!” “And these are the reports for last month and the financial reports.
