The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna)

Chapter 718 “Boohoo, Bruce...” Marlowe mumbled, his words filled with anger and a desire for revenge against Bruce.

He was aware that Bruce must have orchestrated someone to seek revenge on him.

However, despite his emotional state and desire for revenge, Marlowe couldn't help but feel scared of Bruce now.

Bruce didn’t kill him this time; he merely taught him a harsh lesson. Marlowe realized that if he dared to provoke Bruce again, the consequences could be much more severe, possibly even fatal.

“Mr. Yanice, please refrain from moving. If you need anything, just let me know.

After whimpering a few times, Marlowe's spirits seemed to deflate, and he lay down in a dispirited manner, resembling a deflated ball.

Marlowe was well aware that confronting Bruce at this moment would be courting death.

He realized that it would be wiser to hold back for now and focus on his recovery rather than seeking revenge on Bruce immediately.

“President Yanice, what are you trying to say?” Marlowe's eyes were bloodshot as he closed his eyes fiercely.

Marlowe never expected that Bruce would survive the attack and, to his surprise, end up with more severe injuries than Bruce himself.

Filled with resentment and a burning desire for revenge, Marlowe swore in his heart, vowing that he would never let Bruce off the hook for the suffering he had caused. Despite his weakened state and the uncertainty of his future, he was determined to seek retribution even if it meant haunting Bruce for the rest of his life.

Marlowe's anger and resentment consumed him, and he vowed with venomous determination, “Just you wait. When | recover, | will not only take your life but also the lives of your entire family! I, Marlowe, will never coexist under the same sky as you. We can't live peacefully together.” Despite closing his eyes, Marlowe's emotions continued to fluctuate violently. His inner turmoil was evident, and the intensity of his feelings seemed to overpower him, making it difficult for him to find peace or solace.

Marlowe's injuries were severe, leaving him permanently disabled and confined to a wheelchair for the rest of his life. The loss of his right calf and multiple slash wounds had taken a toll on his physical and mental well-being, leaving him unable to even speak clearly.

It was almost noon.

Marcus came to the hospital to visit his son.

At the same time, some of their friends in business came to visit them.

“How is Marlowe doing? “I heard that he was transferred out of the intensive care unit today, so | came over to see how he’s doing.” “Thank you!” Marcus thanked the guest politely.

Grayson and his wife also came to the hospital to visit Marlowe with Jennie.

Given the interconnections and business dealings between wealthy families, it was only natural for the Garcia family to maintain friendly relations with the Yanice family In such social circles, it was not uncommon for the elders to exchange polite yet somewhat hypocritical words.

Jennie was not comfortable in such social settings and found herself disliking these occasions. She politely bid farewell to Marcus, using an excuse to gracefully excuse herself from the ward.

In the corridor.

Bas Bruce also went to check his body.

After the checkup, he was about to return to the ward.

He saw Jennie right in front of him.

Jennie also saw Bruce. Her eyes instantly lit up. “Bruce...” Bruce sized up Jennie. Then, he forced a retarded and idiotic smile at her.

Jennie was stunned as he stared blankly at Bruce.

The man standing before her remained as commanding and handsome as ever. His imposing presence and the scar on his forehead only added to his allure, giving him a captivating and slightly enigmatic aura.

Jennie could not help but feel excited again. “Bruce, are you alright now?” As she spoke, Jennie walked excitedly towards Bruce. Her igh heels clicked on the ground.

Seeing how agitated she was, Bruce's heart tightened. He could only pretend to have lost his memory. “Are you talking to me?” Jennie was stunned. “That's right, Bruce. Don’t you recognize me? I'm Jennie!” Bruce frowned and smiled foolishly.

Of course, he knew Jennie.

However, it was not easy for him to cut ties with her. He did not want to get into trouble again.

“Bruce, long time no see. | thought you...” Ass he spoke, Jennie choked.

She thought that Bruce would never wake up again.

She didn’t expect to see him now.

“Hehe... Do we know each other?” Bruce pretended to be dumb.

After all, when he was in prison, he had only jokingly agreed to date her.

She took it seriously and chased after him.

He was really afraid and did not want to get himself in trouble again.

“Bruce, how did you become like this?” Jennie’s nose turned sour, and her yes instantly turned red.

Then, she started cursing Joanna again. “It’s all that b*tch Joanna's fault. If it weren't for her, you wouldn't have become like this.

“Bruce, I'm really happy for you to see you recover.

Without waiting for Jennie to finish, Bruce directly interrupted her. “Hehe, my wife is still waiting for me. | have to go. Bye.” Bruce did not dare to delay any longer. He quickly turned around and walked towards Joanna’s ward.

Jennie watched as Bruce fled.

Her eyes turned even redder.

She really liked Bruce and had loved him for so many years. Unfortunately, he had never given her a chance.

Last year, she thought she would be closer to Bruce.

But he was just patronizing her.

As soon as he was released from prison, he dumped her. He had no intention of being with her.

Hearing that he had an accident, she wanted to visit him.

During this period, she had been trying to convince herself to let go of her obsession and end the relationship. However, upon seeing him again, the emotions in her heart surged once more.

“Bruce, you're being foolish. Joanna is the one responsible for your current state, yet you still cherish her like a precious treasure! “If you had chosen me, such a disaster wouldn't have happened.

“Joanna, you damn bitch, how did you bewitch Bruce to such an extent?” The more she thought about it, the more indignant she became.

She stood in the hospital corridor, her gaze fixed on the direction where Bruce had left, hoping he would return.

Fifteen minutes later.

Grayson and his wife walked out of the ward.

Seeing his daughter standing there like a stone pillar, Mrs. Garcia's heart tightened. “Jennie, what's wrong?” Jennie did not speak. She continued to stare blankly at the end of the hospital.

“Jennie, what are you looking at? Are you okay?” “I'm fine.” “Alright then, let's go.” “Okay.” Jennie kept looking back. Her heart was in turmoil.

She still couldn't let go of Bruce.

Even though she knew that he had become an idiot, she still could not let go.

In the ward.

Bruce returned to the ward, still feeling a little frustrated.

“What took you so long?” “Yes, is it long?” Bruce sat at the head of the bed.

“It's been almost an hour. Isn't that long?” Joanna grumbled unhappily.

He hadn't been gone for too long.

But she was worried that Bruce would met bad people.

“I'm back now!” “What did the doctor say?” The nurse replied, “The doctor prescribed medication for Mr. Everett and asked him to return for a follow-up checkup after some time.” “Oh...” Joanna was relieved.

“Honey, does your belly feel better?” “Does it still hurt? Did the baby kick you again?” “It doesn’t hurt so much anymore.” “Yes, the doctor said that you have to lie down and rest. Don’t be too tired and don’t think too much.” “Got it!” Joanna could not help but sigh heavily.

“Turn on the television! It's so quiet in this ward.” “Okay.” The nurse then turned on the television.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the television was turned on, they saw some gossip news.

[Everett Group is about to have a new chairman. Liam Miller has officially taken over Everett Group.] [Hartfield Enterprise may face the risk of delisting. Can the new chairman turn the tide?] [Bruce stepped down from the position of chairman. His brain has been severely damaged...].

The news anchor finished his report with a serious expression.

The scene changed to an outdoor reporter interviewing Liam.

“Mr. Miller, are you about to take over as Everett Group?” “Mr. Miller, are you Mr. Everett's legal guardian from now on?” “Yes, I'm Mr. Everett's uncle. Now that he’s in trouble, of course | have to take care of everything for him.” In front of the camera, Liam and Lola were beaming with joy.

Even though the two of them had tried their best to control their expressions, the joy in their eyes could not help but be revealed.

“Can Mr. Everett's brain recover?”.

“The doctor said that there's no way for him to recover at the moment, but don’t worry, I'll take good care of him for the rest of his life,” Liam said to the reporters with a rosy face.

Looking at the report on the television, Bruce couldn't help but sneer.

He would soon tear apart Liam's hypocritical face.

On the day Liam became the chairman, he wanted to appear unexpectedly and teach him a lesson.

However, this way, he wouldn't be able to pretend to be retarded.

He enjoyed pretending to be retarded, because he had Joanna's meticulous care and love for him.

However, the situation was special now.

He couldn't pretend any longer.

In less than two weeks, Aria would be Greyport.

He wanted to settle everything in the company before Aria arrived.

Only then would he have the energy and time to face Aria.
