The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 111

However, Joanna did not expect Bruce to chase her to the hotel.

Bruce dominated Joanna again.

This triggered Joanna had a depression attack!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Bruce knocked on the bathroom door heavily a few more times.

Bruce shouted, “Joanna, what are you doing in there? Get out now!

“If you keep staying inside, I’ll break in!”

However, Joanna did not reply or open the door.

Bruce held his breath and leaned over to hear. He did not even hear a sound! Therefore, Bruce

panicked and kicked the bathroom door open!

After that, Bruce turned on the lights.

Joanna curled up in the bathtub, and her eyes were tightly shut. Joanna’s face was completely soaked

in the water in the bathtub.

Bruce asked, “Joanna, what are you doing?”

However, Joanna did not reply. It seemed that she had already passed out.

Seeing this, Bruce’s heart skipped a beat. Thus, he hurriedly pulled Joanna out of the water.

“Joanna, Joanna!”

Joanna was already unconscious. Her body went limp, and she was like a snake without a spine.

Bruce was flustered. He hurriedly carried Joanna out of the bathroom and placed her on the bed. Then

Bruce began to press Joanna’s chest to give her

CPR.

After Bruce performed more than ten sets of CPR in a row, there was finally an indication that Joanna

came back to life.

“Ugh. Ugh,” moaned Joanna. As Bruce pressed down, Joanna choked and spat out a lot of water.

Bruce was even more shocked and panicked when he saw Joanna being like this. Thus, Bruce

hurriedly put on a bathrobe and grabbed a bedsheet to wrap Joanna up.

Bruce had never heard that a person could drown herself in a bathtub.

If Bruce did not kick the door to break in just now, Joanna would have drowned!

Bruce said, “Joanya, wake up. I’m sending you to the hospital now!”

Bruce hastily tied the belt of his bathrobe. Then he held Joanna up and headed out.

A few bodyguards were standing outside. When they saw Bruce coming out, they hurriedly came up to

Bruce.

The bodyguards greeted, “Mr. Everett!”

Bruce shouted anxiously. “Hurry up! To the hospital!”

“Yes, Mr. Everett!”

12:51 Fri, 23

Chapte? 111

The bodyguards did not dare to hesitate. One of them rushed to the elevator and pressed the button.

Another bodyguard called the driver to start the car through a walkie–talkie.

“Kody, Mr. Everett needs a ride to the hospital. Start the car right now!”

“Got it.”

The others guarded Bruce out of the hotel.

Soon, they reached downstairs.

The driver had already parked the car at the entrance of the hotel. A bodyguard quickly went forward

and opened the car door!

Bruce carried Joanna and got into the car.

Bruce shouted, “To the nearest hospital!”

“Got it, Mr. Everett.”

The driver stepped on the accelerator and sped toward the nearest hospital.

Sitting in the car, Bruce hugged Joanna tightly. Bruce was so nervous that he held Joanna in his arms

as if he was holding a baby. Joanna was as soft as a cloud.

Joanna’s face became even paler because it had been soaked in the water. Bruce felt his heart ache

when seeing Joanna’s face.

“Joann, Joann! Hang in there. You can’t leave the world like this. Do you hear me?”

Joanna’s eyes were tightly closed, and she did not have any reaction.

Bruce could not understand how Joanna could drown herself.

Ten minutes later.

The car roared to the nearest hospital.

Bruce carried Joanna out of the car, and one bodyguard rushed into the hospital to call the doctor.

Within a minute, two nurses came out with a wheeled stretcher, and Joanna was sent to an emergency

room.

The bodyguards held their breaths and stood aside.

Bruce was wearing a robe and nervously walking around outside the ward.

A patient murmured, “What’s this for? Why is that guy bringing bodyguards?”

Another patient said, “No idea, but he looks like he’s from an organization.”

The third patient replied, “Guys, let’s go. Just leave them alone if you don’t want trouble.”

The patients who passed by all turned their heads and looked at Bruce and his bodyguards from afar

as if they were watching a show!

Hall an hour later.

The emergency room door finally opened. A doctor walked out of it.

Bruce immediately walked to the doctor and asked anxiously, “Doctor, is everything okay?”

The doctor answered, “Where did she drown? Fortunately, she was sent in time! We have saved her.

“However, she hasn’t woken up yet because she had choked some water in her lungs.”

Chapter 111

Bruce said, “Doctor, please bring her back to life by all means!”

The doctor comforted, “No worries. Her life is no longer in danger. Young adults should be more tut

when swimming. This is a matter of life and

death!”

The doctor thought that Joanna had drowned in the pool. He would never expect that Joanna drown in

a bathtub.

Hearing the doctor’s words, Bruce tightly frowned. He did not reply to the doctor or explain anything.

At the same time, Bruce felt deep pain inside.

Bruce thought, “Joanna used to love me so much. I can’t believe that she doesn’t love me anymore.”

Bruce hesitated for a second. Then he asked, “May I go in and see her?”

“Sure,” replied the doctor.

The doctor left after giving the permission.

Bruce pushed open the door and heavily and slowly walked to the bed.

Joanna was lying on the hospital bed, wearing an oxygen mask and having IV drips on her arm. She

was still unconscious.

Bruce said, “Joann, please wake up.

“Do you… I never know you hate me so much now. You hate me so much that you had to harm

yourself if I touched you.”

Bruce felt a little guilty deep down and frowned so tightly that his thick eyebrows almost turned into a

knot.

Bruce held Joanna’s hand tightly and had an indescribable feeling inside.

Bruce thought, “I always feel that Joanna loves me and is just playing hard to get. But now, it seems

that she really doesn’t love me anymore.”

Early the next morning, Cora cried, “Oh my gosh, Miss Haynes is missing. I keep calling her this

morning but can’t get through!” Cora was so anxious that

sweats covered her forehead.

Michael frowned and replied, “Could Miss Haynes have returned to Greyport?”

Coco said anxiously, “How is that possible? We agreed to go to the venue today. Why would Miss

Haynes go back to Greyport alone?

“Even if Miss Haynes wants to return to Greyport, she will at least leave us a message.”

George said in shock, “This is not good news. Did Miss Haynes encounter a bad guy and get

kidnapped?”

Hearing George’s assumption, Cora and Michael were shocked and dreadful. Michael said, “No. That’s

not possible.”

Cora said, “It may be possible, it’s all your fault. You insisted on going to some clubs last night! Now,

Miss Haynes is missing!”

“Is Miss Haynes sleeping soundly? Is that why she didn’t hear the call? Why don’t we try calling her

again?”

“That’s impossible. I can’t get through at all! It’s already nine o’clock in the morning. Miss Haynes can’t

be still sleeping at this time.”

“Then what should we do? Should we call the police?”

“Miss Haynes hasn’t missed up to 24 hours yet. I’m afraid the police won’t accept the case even if we

ask them for help.”

Cora was anxious and hurriedly called Joanna again.

What Cora received was an automated answer. “Hello, the number you have dialed is currently

unavailable. Please try again later.”

“Try again with my phone.”

Chapter 111

The three of them took turns calling Joanna. However, all they received was the same automated

answer.

“Oh my gosh, why doesn’t Miss Haynes answer the phone?”

“Maybe we can ask the front desk whether Miss Haynes has checked out.”

Then the three of them rushed to the front desk.

The receptionist checked the room number and said, “The customer hasn’t checked out yet.”

“Then why isn’t Miss Haynes in the room?”

The receptionist said, “Oh, I saw someone take her to the hospital yesterday. We thought those guys

were with you.”

Hearing this, Cora was even more anxious and asked, “Who are they?”

The receptionist replied, “Well, I only know they had several people.”

“Do you know which hospital they went to?”

The receptionist replied, “I have no clue about that.”

“Could you please show us the surveillance footage? Our friend is missing!”

The receptionist showed the three of them the surveillance footage.

Cora cried, “Oh my god, isn’t this Mr. Everett?

“What happened to Miss Haynes? Why was she sent to the hospital? She was safe and sound when

she was with us.”

Michael and George frowned. Michael assumed, “It seems that Mr. Everett had abused Miss Haynes

again.”

Cora shouted at the receptionist, “Can you do your jobs better? How can you give strangers free

access to the hotel?”

The receptionist replied, “Well, they can get in the hotel as long as they are our customers, and we

have no responsibility to protect customers or avoid things like that.”

Michael stopped the fight by interrupting anxiously, “Enough. There won’t be a big problem since we

know Mr. Everett, not a kidnapper, takes Miss

Haynes away.

“Cora, you have Mr. Everett’s number, haven’t you? Call Mr. Everett and ask him!”

“Oh, right!” replied Cora. Then Cora quickly called Bruce Everett.

Unfortunately, no one picked up the phone.

Cora said, “I can’t get through to Mr. Everett either.”

“Then call Andy and ask him.”

Bruce stayed by the bed in the hospital all night, and Joanna woke up in the middle of the night.

However, Joanna only opened her eyes for a second and fell asleep again because she was weak, and

the drowning took too much energy from her.

It was ten o’clock now.

Joanna’s hand and eyelids moved slightly.

Bruce’s eyes were red because he had stayed up the whole night. He held Joanna’s hand tightly,

saying, “Joann, are you awake? I’m sorry, I…”

Soon, Cora and the others rushed to the hospital.
