El regreso de su inigualable ex esposa novel Chapter 768

Chapter 768

“Alright! Let’s wait until she wakes up before making a decision.”

“Okay, okay,” the doctor said and left the infirmary.

With a heavy heart, Bruce smoked two cigarettes outside the corridor.

His heart was in a mess.

Aria was so sick. If he returned to the country, there would really be no one to take care of her.

Although he could find the best caregiver for her, she must have someone guarding her when her condition worsened, and she needed to sign various surgical forms.

That was not something a caregiver could do.

He thought about it.

He decided to call Joanna and inform her of the current situation.

That was to prevent the misunderstanding between the two of them from worsening.

Beep, beep, beep.

He quickly called.

Due to the time difference, Joanna was in the wee hours of the morning.

The phone rang for a long time before she picked it up.

“Hey…”

Bruce’s deep voice came from the other end of the phone. “Joann, it’s me.”

Joanna was stunned and subconsciously wanted to hang up.

She didn’t want to come into contact with him, let alone say a word to him.

“Beep…”

The line went dead.

“Hey, hey…”

Beep, beep, beep.

Bruce dialed her number again.

This time, Joanna did not approach her phone again. Instead, she turned off her phone.

Bruce had no choice but to call Gael and ask Gael to hand the phone to Joanna.

After hanging up the phone, Joanna was still furious.

He had not contacted her for many days. Why would he suddenly contact her?

Ten minutes later.

Knock! Knock! There was a knock on the door.

“Madam, it’s Mr. Everett. Please answer it.”

“I’m not answering it. Just hang up on him.”

Outside the door, Gael was in a difficult position. He knocked on the door politely. “Madam, you should answer it!”

“If you don’t pick up the phone, you know Mr. Everett’s temper. I’m afraid he’ll call for the entire night.”

When Joanna heard that, she could only get out of bed angrily and open the door.

Indeed

A bastard like Bruce would not care about others’ feelings.

If he wanted to do something, he would definitely achieve his goal.

Crack! She opened the door.

“Pass me the phone.”

“Oh…” Gael quickly handed the phone to Joanna as if he had a hot potato in his hands.

“Bruce, why are you calling? It’s two o’clock in the morning. What is your problem?” Joanna took the phone and cursed at

the phone.

Bruce pondered for a few seconds on the other end of the line. After Joanna finished scolding, he said resignedly, “Joann, don’t hang up first.”

“I have something to tell you now.”

Joanna calmed down and replied coldly, “What is it? Tell me!”

Bruce paused for a moment before saying slowly, “Aria’s illness is very serious. It might be brain cancer. She has to undergo surgery now. I might need to take care of her…”

When Joanna heard that, she felt a tearing pain in her heart. Did he call her in the middle of the night to tell her he needed to take care of his first love?

“Bruce, what you want to do has nothing to do with me. There’s no need to call me.” Joanna was about to hang up again.

Bruce panicked and raised his voice. “Joann, don’t hang up yet.”

“I just want to ask you a question.”

Joanna sneered. “What question? Ask away!”

Bruce organized his thoughts. “If Jaydon had cancer and needed you to be by his side, what would you do?”

When Joanna heard that, her gaze darkened.

“What do you mean by that?”

“Did you do something to Jay again?”

“Bruce, I’m warning you. Do not target Jaydon again. Do not do anything despicable and sinister behind my back.”

Bruce’s heart ached when he heard that.

She still cared so much about Jaydon.

“Joann, I understand you now. I also understand your relationship with Jaydon.”

“As for me and Aria, it is like the friendship between you and Jaydon.”

“Can

“Since Miss Bridges is so sick, I think you should marry her immediately and fulfill her wish.”

“Do not call me again. We agreed not to disturb each other when we broke up. There is no need to tell me about your

matters.”

Bruce was completely flustered. “Joann, can you not act on anger?”

“If you don’t want me to take care of her, you can tell me.”

“As long as you tell me, I will go back immediately and accompany you…”

When Joanna heard that, she could not help but sneer. There was a hint of determination in her voice. “Bruce, you don’t have to do this.”

“I just said that we have already broken up. What you want to do is

your

business.”

“I’m going to bed now. Please do not call me again.”

“Pa!” Joanna hung up the phone.

“Hey, hey…”

Bruce hung up in frustration.

From Joanna’s tone, he knew how angry she was.

He thought about how much he hated Jaydon previously.

He suddenly understood Joanna’s feelings. Her feelings were probably the same as how he felt about Jaydon.

In that case, he should not take it further. He did not want her to feel so uncomfortable.

Bruce then contacted Joanna with another text message. [Joann. I will book a flight tomorrow and be able to reach Greyport the day after tomorrow. I love you. Wait for me to come back.]

“Bruce, you are not a savior. You can’t save anyone.”

“I’d better love the people around me first!” Bruce muttered to himself.

Then, he called Leo.

Aria had to be taken care of. He could only call her assistant to take care of her.

Besides, he was not a doctor. Staying here would not help much.

He did not want to hurt Joanna anymore.

“Darcy, prepare for action immediately. We must complete this mission.”

“Got it, Mr. Everett.”

“Then let us set off!”

“We are going to the airport tonight. Everyone must pay full attention.”

Darcy replied, “Alright, I will inform the others now…”
