The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 687

They left the hospital.

Lola gloated. “Hubby, that’s great. Bruce is a complete fool now. He’s even more stupid than the last time we met.

“Look at him now. He doesn’t have any ability to do things alone.”

“We will definitely win the lawsuit. The court will definitely award you custody of him.”

Liam pursed his lips. “Alas, I hope so!”

After Liam left, Joanna looked at Bruce helplessly and sadly. She reached out and gently caressed his face. “Alas…”

She wanted to say something, but she felt like a fishbone stuck in her throat.

Bruce heard her sigh and knew what she was worried about.

However, everything was under his control.

He still couldn’t tell her the truth.

He wanted everyone to think that he was stupid. Only then would he be able to know the true colors of the people

around

him.

At that time, he would catch them off guard and give them a head-on blow. He was sure that they would all beg him

for mercy while crying and regret it.

Bruce chewed on his saliva and smiled foolishly at Joanna. “Honey… I’m sleepy…”

“Then have a sleep. I’ll watch over you.”

“Yes, yes…” Bruce answered obediently. He held Joanna’s hand and closed his eyes to rest.

It was not that he was really tired, but he had been pretending to be an idiot with a crooked mouth, slanted eyes,

and constantly chewing saliva. To be honest, it was quite tiring.

If he accidentally exposed himself, it would be even worse. It was better to pretend to be asleep.

Joanna patted his shoulder gently to coax him to sleep as if she was coaxing a baby. She was afraid that he would

feel a little uncomfortable, and she was even more afraid that he would not sleep well.

Bruce enjoyed this feeling.

How good would it be if she treated him like this for the rest of their life? It was much better than the way she used

to scowl at him and keep a distance from him.

He was really worried that after he returned to normal, Joanna’s attitude toward him would become distant and

cold again just like how she used to be.

Beep, beep, beep!

Joanna’s phone vibrated.

Joanna carefully took out her phone and took a look. It was the butler Gael calling.

Joanna was afraid of waking up Bruce, so she quickly hung up the phone. Then, she gently pulled her hand out of

his grip.

She gently covered him with the blanket and made sure that he did not wake up. Then, she stood up and tiptoed

out of the ward to call Gael.

As soon as Joanna left, Bruce’s eyes suddenly opened.

“Oh, this feels so good. It’s good that she cares about me so much and treats me so well for the rest of our life.

“I really didn’t expect her to have such a gentle side. I have to pretend to be a fool for a few more days and enjoy

this wonderful feeling.”

Joanna left the ward.

She quickly called Gael back.

Beep, beep, beep.

The call was picked up very quickly.

However, it wasn’t Gael who answered. Instead, it was Davian’s voice.

“Hello, Mommy, it’s me, Davian.”

“Baby, what’s wrong?”

“Mommy, how’s Daddy now? We’re all very worried about him.” Davian’s voice was hoarse. It seemed like he had

been

crying for the past few days.

When Joanna heard her son’s voice, she quickly comforted the children. “Babies, don’t worry. Daddy has already

woken up. He can be discharged in a few days.”

Hearing that, Davian asked in disbelief, “Really? Mommy, don’t lie to us.”

“Why would Mommy lie to you? Daddy is really awake. He can go home in a few days. You don’t have to worry. Tell

Irvin and Lilia not to worry either.”

“Then can we go to the hospital to visit Daddy? We’re really worried.”

“Babies, stay at home obediently and don’t come to the hospital. I am worried that something bad will happen.

Besides, there are many paparazzi waiting at the hospital these few days. I don’t want you to be harassed.”

“Alright then!”

“Give the phone to Mr. Gael.”

“Mr. Gael, it’s Mommy,” said Davian as he handed the phone to Gael.

“Hello, Gael.”

“What can I do for you, Mrs. Everett?”

“Thank you for taking care of the children these days.”

“Mrs. Everett, don’t worry! I’ll take good care of the children.

“However, if you can spare the time, you should try your best to come back. The children are very worried about

Mr. Everett. These few days, they have no appetite and are making a fuss about going to the hospital.”

When Joanna heard this, she felt extremely upset. “I’ll go back tonight!”

“Okay, okay.”

Joanna had already been in the hospital for three days. The children must be anxious. She had to go back and

comfort the children.

After hanging up, Joanna returned to the ward.

-Bruce seemed to be sleeping soundly with his eyes closed.

Joanna gently stroked his cheek. “Bruce, I’m going back to Sherane Bay Villa to see the children.

“I’ll be back soon. You have to be good.”

After saying that, Joanna gently touched his forehead and kissed him. She knew that Bruce relied on her. If he woke

up later and couldn’t see her, he would cause a scene again.

She could only rush back while he was sleeping. Bruce had surgery and had lost too much blood. He might sleep for

a few

hours.

So, the time was enough for her to make a trip home.
