The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 754

Aria’s heart ached as she looked at Bruce sadly.

Was this still the elegant and gentlemanly man she remembered?

Indeed, when he was a student in the past, he was very gentlemanly.

However, ever since he dropped out of school, he came into society too early. Moreover, the moment he went into

society, he was faced with mutual deception about the business world and all sorts of difficult missions sent by the

organization.

He faced heavy pressure from all walks of life.

He had long been smithed beyond recognition.

He was no longer the young and happy boy from before. Instead, he was a man filled with ruthlessness and

decisiveness.

Aria was still stunned.

Bruce didn’t want to say anything else. He took the cigarette and walked out of the corridor.

He was extremely annoyed and regretted it.

Why did he always make such a low-level mistake?

Or perhaps, in his subconscious mind, he did not think that this was a mistake at all.

However, Joanna was too serious and did not trust him enough.

After a while, the doctor also walked out of the ward.

“Mr. Everett, the patient is now suffering from severe depression and anxiety. She needs regular psychological

counseling and medical treatment.

“During this period of time, she can’t suffer any more stimulation. And she has to maintain a comfortable and calm

mood. Otherwise, the subsequent treatment will be very difficult.

“Moreover, Miss Haynes had suffered from serious depression before. It’s in a worsening stage now. We can’t

ignore it anymore!” the doctor said.

“… I understand.

“Then… what kind of treatment should we do now?” Bruce asked with a heavy heart.

Joanna had been taking medicine for depression for many years.

Her body was already unable to bear the burden.

He had put in so much effort to get the Haynes Group away from her just so that she could set aside her work

completely and take good care of her body.

Of course, it was also to control her by his side.

He always thought that he had made the best plan for Joanna.

However, the result was counterproductive and self-defeating. Every time, he would do something bad out of

goodwill, causing the two of them to go against each other.

The psychiatrist’s face was solemn. “For the next few days, don’t show up for the time being, lest you agitate the

patient’s

emotions.

“Now, we have to calm the patient down before we can do the follow-up treatment.

“If you appear rashly, it will aggravate the patient’s condition.”

When Bruce heard this, his heart ached even more.

He wanted to explain everything to her so that she wouldn’t misunderstand him.

He had no relationship with Aria at all, nor did he have any feelings for her.

Still, he couldn’t blame her.

It was indeed easy for people to misunderstand that a man and a woman were together in a hotel. Moreover, it was

on the day of their wedding.

It would be strange if Joanna didn’t hate him.

“I understand. You have to enlighten her properly and not let her hurt herself again.

“If she gets hurt again or does anything to hurt herself, you will all be unemployed,” Bruce said. His eyes suddenly

flashed with a sinister look.

“Mr. Everett, don’t worry. We will try our best.

“Then we’ll go make preparations first! We’ll report the subsequent treatment methods to you in detail.” After the

doctor finished speaking, he quickly found an excuse and left.

After the doctor left, Bruce leaned against the wall in exhaustion.

He had not slept for two days.

All of a sudden, Aria walked over again and looked at him carefully.

“Bruce, can we talk again?”

Bruce was stunned. “Why haven’t you left yet?”

Aria looked sad. “Bruce, I don’t want you and your wife to misunderstand.

“I know I shouldn’t have appeared, and I shouldn’t have… made such a request of you. I regret it very much now, I

really regret it…”

“Stop! I’m

very frustrated now.

I don’t want to hear this anymore.” Bruce tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart.

He hated women who kept pestering him.

He had already told her to go back first. She still had to talk so much. It really annoyed him.

“Bruce… Do you hate me very much?” Aria sobbed as tears silently rolled down her face.

She looked pitiful and hurt.

Bruce subconsciously glanced at her and swallowed his anger.

After all, she was a cancer patient now.

No matter what, his attitude towards her should not be too bad.

“Aria, you’re sick now. The most important thing is to hurry up and treat yourself.

“If you want to be treated here, I can arrange for the best doctor for you. If you want to go overseas for treatment,

I can help you bear all the expenses.”

”

When Aria heard this, she shook her head sadly. “No need. That’s not what I need!

“I know my illness. There’s no point in treating it! I just want to make sure that I don’t have any regrets at the last

moment of my life!

“I can swear to God I’d never want to destroy your relationship. I just…”

As Aria spoke, she was already sobbing.

Seeing this, Bruce’s heart ached. “I’m sorry!

“I really can’t agree to your request.

“Aria, I know you’re hurt, but my lover is hurt even more,

“I regret it very much now, and I blame myself very much.”

Aria interrupted him. “I know. I’m really sorry. I really deserve to die for causing you such trouble.

“I… I’ll book a flight later and disappear from your sight as soon as possible. I really, really didn’t want to ruin your

relationship with your wife.

“I’m just…” Aria spoke of her sorrow over and over again. Tears flowed down her face.

Seeing this, Bruce became even more anxious.

“Aria, don’t be like this. If others see this, they’ll misunderstand again.”

“I know, I’m leaving now!”

As she spoke, Aria looked at Bruce worriedly. “However, don’t forget your true identity.

“Don’t forget your ideals and pursuits. Don’t let the troubles of the outside world restrict you. You’re a person who

will do significant things. Love will only hold you back.”

Bruce was even more upset when he heard that. “Don’t say anymore. I’ve already said that I want to quit the

organization.

“After this job, no matter what, I quit.”

“Bruce, don’t be impulsive. Don’t go against the organization either. They have spent a lot of effort to nurture you

for so many years. Don’t give up halfway, and don’t let the organization down…

“Hmph…” Before Aria could finish speaking, Bruce sneered.

Of course, the organization had indeed given him a lot of power in some aspects.

However, this was only mental strength.

And he had done so many things for the organization.

He only wanted to live a few years peacefully now. Wasn’t that enough?

Did he have to sacrifice himself bravely to be considered an outstanding person?

No, he was tired.

He did not want to continue like this. He only wanted to be an ordinary person now.
