Chapter 444
Bruce carried Joanna and hurried out of the Dynasty nightclub. “Where’s the car?”
“The car’s outside!”
Drive it over. Let’s go to the hospital now.”
“Oh, okay.”
“Bruce, let go of me!”
Bruce frowned. “Joanna, stop fooling around! It was iny fault, okay? I’ll send you to the hospital now.”
Bruce’s sense of urgency surged as he swiftly lifted Joanna into his arms and raced towards the underground
parking lot, not wanting to waste a single moment.
As soon as he reached the parking lot, he saw a Mercedes–Benz nanny van.
It was the car Joanna came with. He was in such a drunken state that Bruce couldn’t remember which car he took.
He carried Joanna into the van.
In the car!
Lilian was holding Lilia and waiting for Joanna.
When he saw Bruce, Lilia was overjoyed. “Daddy…”
Hearing this, Bruce was stunned. “Lilia, why are you here?”
Lilian looked nervous. “Mr. Everett, Miss Lilia has a high fever and has been clamoring to see you. She refused to go
to the hospital no matter what, so Mrs. Everett could only bring her over.”
Bruce frowned when he heard that!
No wonder Joanna seemed to have gone crazy today. It turned out that Lilia was sick again!
“Hurry up and go to the hospital!”
Joanna lost too much blood and her brain was in a coma. She leaned weakly in Bruce’s arms.
Lilia was also frightened when she saw her mommy bleeding so much. “Mommy, why is your hand bleeding?”
Bruce hurriedly covered Joanna with her clothes to shield Lilia from seeing her injuries. “It’s okay, sweetheart.
Mommy is fine. Don’t be scared. Daddy is here to take care of her.
“Drive!”
The started the car and drove towards the hospital.
Fifteen minutes later!
The car sped to the hospital!
“Doctor!”
“Lilian, take Lilia to the internal medicine department first!”
“Yes, I got it. Mr. Everett.”
Bruce carried Joanna Jowards the surgical building. “Doctor, please stop her bleeding.”
After the doctors and nurses heard this, they also rushed out.
Along the way, Bruce carefully wrapped Joanna’s injured hand with a white shirt. The once pristine shirt was now
stained with vivid red, serving as a stark reminder of the severity of Joanna’s injuries.
“How did Miss Haynes get hurt? Hurry up and send her to the emergency room.”
“Oh, okay.”
Soon, Joanna was sent to the emergency room.
There were five or six cuts on her fingers and a large wound on her arm. There were a lot of glass shards inside!
The doctor examined it and said with a serious expression, “We have to clean the wound quickly and she will have
several
stitches!
“How did this happen?
“Go get the anesthesia ready.”
Chapter
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBruce watched from the side, feeling extremely sorry.
Soon!
The doctor gave Joanna anesthesia and cleaned her wound.
Then, he began to stitch her wounds.
Because it was not a major surgery, Bruce watched from the beginning to the end.
Joanna’s arm had twelve stitches, and the other wound had seven.
Bruce stood at the side and watched. His scalp went numb! He had never known that Joanna was so terrifying when
she was
angry.
“Doctor, how is it?”
The stitches are done! The wound can’t touch water for a week. The dressing has to be changed every day.”
“Oh, got it!”
Joanna had already woken up, but she was still in a daze.
“Joanna, does it hurt?” Bruce asked with heartache.
Looking at the huge centipede–shaped wound on her arm, Bruce’s heart ached.
Some time ago, the scar on her wrist had not healed, and now she got new wounds.
Bruce’s heart sank as Lilian approached with Lilia in her arms. Lilia’s tearful voice broke through his thoughts,
“Daddy, what happened to Mommy? Why is she hurt?”
“Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid. It’s fine now!
“She will be fine soon!”
“Really?”
“Yeah!”
“Lilian, how’s Lilia’s condition? What did the doctor say?”
“The doctor gave her a blood test. Now we have to wait for the results!”
“Oh, okay.”
In the ward!
After Joanna’s wounds were stitched up, she was taken back to the ward as she was still under the effect of
anesthesia.
Because she had lost too much blood, Joanna had been in a semi–conscious state. Coupled with the effect of the
anesthetic. she was a little dispirited.
In front of the hospital bed, Bruce apologized sincerely, “Joanna, I’m sorry, I was wrong!”
Joanna’s lips were so pale that there was no trace of blood. She lay on the hospital bed without reaction!
“I was really wrong! I won’t do it again. Can you forgive me this time?”
Joanna ignored him, her eyes closed.
“I won’t drink anymore. If I drink again, I’ll…” Bruce said, but he didn’t know how to continue.
He had already made similar oath with Joanna previously.
However, he broke his promises shortly after.
Therefore, it was useless to say any more oaths now.
any
Seeing that she was ignoring him, Bruce felt even worse. “Joanna, don’t be like this. Can you say something to me?
I’m begging you!”
No matter what he said, Joanna remained indifferent, as if he was an air person.
This time, she would never compromise again!
Lilia also helped to plead for mercy. “Mommy, Daddy has already apologized to you. Can you forgive him?
“Mommy, I beg you, please forgive Daddy!
Joanna was still unmoved!
Chapter 444
Bruce had used their child as leverage, manipulating her with money, and resorting to unethical tactics to
control’her.
She had really had enough!
If she took a step back now, she would lose herself again. would lead to eternal damnation.
The doctor came over to change the dressing again. The prescription was ready. “Mr. Everett. The patient has lost
too much blood and will be staying in the hospital for two days.”
“Okay!”
“Joanna, do you want some water?”
Joanna didn’t answer.
“Drink some water!” Bruce eagerly poured a glass of water.
Lilian couldn’t stand it anymore. “Mr. Everett, you didn’t sleep last night. Let me take care of Mrs. Everett.”
Andy also rushed over overnight. “That’s right! You have an appointment with some politicians tomorrow. You have
to rest tonight”
“Cancel tomorrow’s meeting and all activities,” Bruce suddenly said.
“Mr. Everett, canceling your appointments with the municipal government officials tomorrow could have serious
consequences. Are you sure about this decision?”
“I said cancel them all. Don’t make me repeat myself!”
“Okay, I’ll tell them there’s an emergency and put them off to next week.”
Bruce did not say anything!
Andy didn’t dare to say anything else and quickly went out to make a call.
“Dame! Mr. Everett is too willful. Those are appointments with politicians from Porash. How am I going to tell
them?” Andy thought.
“Shite! That’s too willful!”
Mark was taken aback by the news. “Did you say Mr. Everett’s schedule for today has been canceled?”
“That’s right!”
“Why?”
“I think he got into a fight with Miss Haynes!”
“Oh my god, how did this happen?”
“How would I know? Hurry up and clean up this mess. Don’t let the politicians get angry.”
“Yes, yes!”
In the next two days, Bruce had been guarding Joanna.
He was like a child who had done something wrong.
Joanna was indifferent to him.
On the third day.
Roxanne went to the hospital to pick Joanna up.
“Joanna, are you alright?”
Bruce replied coldly, “Don’t disturb her!”
“Mr. Everett, Miss Haynes is ready for discharge. However, she will require regular dressing changes after her
discharge.”
“Okay!”
“Come, I’ll carry you.”
Joanna pushed Bruce away with a cold expression and walked out of the room with the assistance of Roxanne.
Sherane Bay Villa!
The three children were in Sherane Bay Villa, and she had signed a contract with him.
Otherwise, she really did not want to come back here!

alright?”
Chapter 444
Where’s Lilia? Is he still in the hospital?” Davian and Irvin looked concerned.
Joanna let out a sigh. “Lilia’s pneumonia is quite severe. The doctors said she’ll need to stay in the hospital for
another week.”
“I am fine. Go to play!”
“Mommy, your arm is so badly injured. How can you be fine?”
“Does it hurt?”
“Mommy doesn’t hurt!”
Nope!”
“Oh, okay!”
Roxanne’s expression changed. “Joanna, I need to go to work now. Call me if anything happens.
“Okay, don’t worry about me. Good luck!”
“Okay, see you later then!”
Joanna automatically ignored Bruce’s presence.
No matter what he said to her, she refused to reply!
For two consecutive days, Joanna did not speak a single word to him!
Bruce couldn’t stand it.
Before they had a divorce. He often ignored her.
Now that Joanna had used cold violence on him, he finally learnt how much it hurt.
“Joanna, what are you mad about? Or how do you want me to apologize? You can tell me!
“Can you not give me the cold shoulder like this?”
Joanna remained cold, ignoring him. She focused on her own life and treated him with indifference as if he were
simply air.
“Joanna, if you continue like this. I’ll really be angry!”
Bruce was furious. He pressed her down in the bed.
He loved conquering her in bed.
However, this time, Joanna did not resist. She was like a soulless doll.
“Joanna, I am now your creditor. I order you to speak to me.
“Don’t force me to break the contract, and don’t fight me head–on!”
Joanna closed her eyes. She did not resist or struggle!
Bruce, couldn’t bear to torture her, felt dejected!
“Alright! You won. Do whatever you want!
“Joanna, let me tell you one more time. Don’t think that I won’t be able to live if I leave you!
“Even without you, I am still me, unyielding and unafraid,” Bruce declared, his voice filled with growing agitation. In
a final burst of anger, he forcefully slammed the door behind him and stormed off.
Since she was ignoring him, he would let her be.
In any case, he had work to do. In the past, when he was unhappy, he would bury himself in work.
During this time, he could deal with the work.
Sometimes, it was a good approach to solve things coldly.
It was no big deal.
Another three days passed!
The two of them continued to ignore each other.
“Beep!”
“Miss Haynes, how’s the progress?”
“Bruce isn’t in the mood to work now. I think we can take advantage of the situation.”
