The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 1082

Joanna’s heart skipped a beat. A hint of sadness appeared on her face.

If the Bruce at home was really Bruce, she would really feel extremely happy.

But….

It was probably not that simple.

Joanna’s eyes darkened as she said softly, “Darcy, come out for a while. I have something to ask you.”

“Okay.” Darcy followed Joanna out the door.

When Grace heard this, she pouted. “Joann, what do you want to ask? Just ask here! Is there anything I can’t

know?”

Joanna smiled at her. “Grace, good girl. This is a work matter. You don’t have to get involved, okay? Don’t worry, it

won’t take long.

“Darcy, come with me.”

“Oh, alright then!” Grace did not dare to be willful anymore when she saw Joanna’s serious expression.

After that, Darcy followed Joanna out of the house and the two of them walked toward the back mountain path.

There was no surveillance there, so they did not have to worry about their conversation being monitored.

They walked for about five minutes.

Darcy could not help but ask, “Mrs. Everett, what do you want to ask? Can you ask now?”

Joanna stared at Darcy and suddenly did not know what to say.

Darcy was the most loyal to Bruce. It was impossible for Joanna to get any key information from him. Moreover,

maybe he didn’t know the truth either.

However, it was better for Joanna to ask him.

“Darcy, I would like to ask what exactly you and Bruce were doing in Melta. What were you busy with for the past

two months?” Joanna looked at Darcy with a heavy expression.

When Darcy heard this, his eyes darkened and he looked at Joanna silently.

Joanna took a deep breath. “Don’t worry. I just want to understand the specific situation. Tell me everything you

know. If you don’t tell me, there will be serious consequences!

“I suspect that Aria still hasn’t given up and she has done something to Bruce. He’s different from before.”

Darcy pondered for a few seconds. “Mrs. Everett, uh… I think it’s better for you to ask Mr. Everett himself. I… I’m

just Mr. Everett’s bodyguard. I do whatever Mr. Everett asks me to do. I don’t dare to ask about anything else.

“And you know Mr. Everett’s temper. It’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but if I tell you, Mr. Everett would be very

angry.”

“Darcy, how long have you been following Bruce?” Joanna asked quietly.

“Hmm, more than ten years,” Darcy answered honestly.

Joanna sighed. She had a lot on her mind.

After nearly half a minute of silence, she finally made up her mind and told Darcy about her concerns.

1/4

After all, only Darcy could be trusted now. Moreover, he was the person involved and knew what had happened to

Bruce in

Melta.

“Darcy, I know you’re very loyal to Bruce. I won’t treat you as an outsider. I’ll just tell you what’s in my mind

directly.”

Seeing Joanna’s serious expression, Darcy could not help but feel nervous. “Mrs. Everett, please.”

“Darcy, do you feel that Bruce is different from before?”

Darcy blinked and looked at Joanna in confusion.

At first, when he first saw Bruce, he only felt that Bruce’s skin had inexplicably become much fairer. His tone and

temper seemed to have changed.

After returning to Greyport, Darcy had been staying with Grace for the past few days and almost never hung

around Bruce. So, naturally, Darcy did not pay attention to this.

“Mrs. Everett, why are you saying that? Are you suspecting something?”

Joanna exhaled and said worriedly, “I’ve known Bruce for more than ten years. I know him the best. This Bruce is

not the previous Bruce at all. I suspect that he’s fake.”

Darcy’s heart skipped a beat. He subconsciously swallowed, his face filled with disbelief.

“This… This is impossible, right?

“If he isn’t Mr. Everett, how could they look so similar?”

Joanna calmed down and said bluntly, “There are clones in the world, and the cloning technology is already very

skilled. I suspect that the current Bruce was cloned by Aria.

“He might not be the real Bruce, but a clone of Bruce.”

Joanna was a smart person, so she was naturally not so easy to fool. Moreover, she and Bruce were so in love, so

how could she not sense that something was wrong?

“What? This… Isn’t this too bizarre?” Darcy was still in disbelief. After all, this was too unbelievable.

“Do you think it’s bizarre? It’s not bizarre at all.” Joanna looked at him steadily.

Darcy’s eyes darted around in disbelief.

Although he also felt that Bruce was different from before, he had never doubted that the Bruce in front of him was

a clone!

It was definitely possible for Aria to clone a fake Bruce. Darcy had seen how crazy this woman was before.

If this was true, then Aria was too terrifying.

“Mrs. Everett, do… Do you really think so?

“Could there be a mistake? Mr. Everett’s brain was injured before. Could it be that he was affected by the damage

to his brain? And that may be why he’s different from before…”

Joanna shook her head decisively and said with a serious expression, “I’ve lived with Bruce for so long. I know him

very well.

“As soon as he opens his mouth, I know what he is going to say. As soon as he raises his hand, I know what he is

going to do.

“I’m his wife. I know better than anyone if the person beside me is my husband or not. How could I not sense if he

was really

Bruce?”

When Darcy heard this, he shuddered. “Then… Mrs. Everett, what do you want to do? What’s your plan? Do you

need me to

get someone to control him?”

Joanna pondered for a few seconds. “That’s why I want to ask you what did Bruce do in Melta, and why did he go

for so long?

“Also, I’ve decided to make another trip to Melta. No matter what, I have to find Aria and find out the truth.

“Darcy, tell me now. What exactly did Bruce do in Melta?”

Darcy choked and looked at Joanna with a troubled expression. “Well… I really don’t know how to say it. In short,

what Mr. Everett did in Melta is very important.

“Actually, I have my doubts too, but…” Darcy hesitated.

“But what? It’s very urgent now. Don’t hide it anymore,” Joanna said anxiously.

She really could not understand why Bruce insisted on going to Melta. Moreover, he had been there for so long.

Darcy’s expression was solemn. “Mrs. Everett, just remember one thing. Mr. Everett is not a bad person. He is the

hero of the country!”

Joanna looked at Darcy in shock.

“What do you mean by that?”

“Mrs. Everett, I can only tell you one thing. What Mr. Everett did is the most proud and honorable thing.

“He’s working for our country. I’m not too sure about what exactly is his identity. But in short, he’s a hero and a

good person.”

Boom!

Joanna was dumbfounded.

She had never thought that Bruce would have another identity. This bastard was really hiding everything from her.

“Mrs. Everett, if the man is really not Mr. Everett, what do you plan to do with him?” Darcy’s face darkened.

Joanna couldn’t come back to her senses for a long time. Her brain was in a fierce mental struggle.

Now was the time to prepare to celebrate Christmas, and the children were so dependent on their father. If she

exposed the truth now, it would cause even more trouble.

Therefore, she could only endure everything. She could not let her emotions affect her, let alone be impulsive.

“Don’t expose him now. I only told you about this. You should know what to do. You can’t even tell Grace!”

“Okay, Mrs. Everett. Don’t worry. I won’t tell anyone,”

“Pack up and go to Melta with me after celebrating Christmas. No matter what, I have to find Bruce.” As Joanna

spoke, her eyes could not help but turn red.

“I understand. Mrs. Everett, feel free to instruct me at any time!”

“Okay, you can go back now! Don’t make Grace wait. Also, Grace told me that she wants to help you resign.

“I hope you can work for another year. There aren’t many people I can trust now, so I can only trust you. You resign

after this matter is completely solved, okay?”

“Mrs. Everett, don’t worry. Before solving this matter, I won’t resign.”

That’s great. I’m relieved. Joanna smiled at Darcy.
