Chapter 1054
Grace was still furious. “Joann, where did your husband and Darcy go? I have to find him.”
Joanna laughed dryly and sighed. “Grace, they might have gone to do something, and bringing you along isn’t suitable. Why don’t you come back first…”

Hearing Joanna’s calm tone, Grace was even angrier. She asked in shock, “Joann, aren’t worried at all? Aren’t you angry at all? Your husband has an ambiguous relationship with that woman, Bridges. Have you forgiven him so quickly?”
After hearing that, Joanna let out a silent breath.
Grace was only in her twenties. She was young, impetuous, and abhorred evil as if it was her enemy. She spoke or acted on hearsay, and her temper came at the drop of a hat.
At Grace’s age, she could not tolerate a hint of betrayal in her romantic relationship. However, at Joanna’s age, she had been enlightened about many problems and would show tolerance toward the other party.
“He was cuddling with that Aria, and they were even alone in the same room. I don’t even know what illicit business they were doing. You could even forgive him for that. Aren’t you too lacking in character?”
“He already explained to me that he and Aria are just friends.”
Grace retorted disdainfully, “You believe what he says? A man’s words should never be trusted. If a man’s words can be trusted, pigs might fly too.
“Besides, don’t you know what your husband was like in the past? You could even forgive him for having an affair. You’re a disgrace to us women.
“If it were me, I would first skin him alive before kicking him to the vast ocean. I would divorce him and make his life hellish.”
Joanna was speechless and could not find any words to réfute her.
Bruce was indeed a liar. He could lie through his teeth.
However, she still believed that he loved her. There was no doubt about his love for her.
She did not know what he was doing now, but he must have his reasons. She should trust him and their love.
Moreover, they had gone through so many life-and-death situations to be together. If truth be told, every time he had a close shave with death, only one belief remained in her heart. It was fine as long as he was alive.
Everything else was really secondary.
Bruce had experienced so many hardships and tribulations. He was not so lacking in restraint as to be easily tempted by a woman.
She was being unreasonable. She should not have suspected him.
“Well, my husband… He does have a bad temper. He’s more domineering and doesn’t care about others’ feelings.
“But he actually doesn’t have any ill intentions. He was probably just joking with you. I’ll apologize to you on his behalf now. Don’t be angry anymore, okay?”

Grace was still furious after she heard that.
However, she could not say anything else. She replied resentfully, “Alright, alright. He’s your husband anyway. Since you’ve already forgiven him, I won’t say anything else. Now, I just want to know where he has taken Darcy.
“I can’t even get through to Darcy now. He’s so mysterious. I wonder what he’s up to.”
“Grace, this is their job. Darcy is my husband’s bodyguard. Of course, he has to go with him.
“Come back quickly. Stop throwing childish tantrums. Jaydon is anxious.
“My husband will definitely come back with Darcy after he’s done with work. It’s useless for you to look for him now!”
“Then when will they be able to get their work done?”
Joanna frowned. “It should take another month or two.
“Come back first and wait patiently. Jaydon even called me yesterday. He’s extremely angry. Come back quickly!”
“But I don’t want to go back so soon. I want to wait a little longer.” Grace pouted.
“Forget it. I won’t talk to you anymore. I’ll wait a few more days. If I really can’t find him, I’ll go back.”
“Alright then! Be careful and call Jaydon back as soon as possible. Set his mind at ease.”
“Oh, I got it.”
“That’s it then! I’m hanging up.” Joanna did not say anything else and hung up.
Davian asked curiously, “Mommy, who called?”
Irvin quickly said, “From the tone, it must be that Grace.”
“Children have to be polite. You have to call her Miss Grimm. You can’t call an adult by her name directly.”
“Tsk, she’s a brat too.”
Joanna could not be bothered to argue with the children anymore. She casually asked, “Where’s Patricia?”
Lilia pointed to a corner of the living room. “Patricia and Devin are eating apples over there.” When Joanna heard that, she walked toward the two young children.
“Patricia, Devin.”
The two young children were sitting on a cushion under the Halloween tree, nibbling on apples with relish.
Devin was simply Patricia’s follower. He followed her wherever she went.
“It’s the day before Halloween today. Do you miss your daddy?” Joanna said as she carried the little girl.
The little girl nibbled on the apple and blinked her big dark eyes, making no response.
She was happy living here, and it did not occur to her to think about her biological father and mother.
“Forget it. I’ll call your daddy and ask him if he wants to take you home for the holiday. Joanna casually took out her phone and called Jaydon.

A ringing sound was heard.
The phone rang for a long time before Jaydon slowly answered it. “Hello, Joann.”
“Jay, what were you busy with? Why weren’t you answering your phone?”
Jaydon sighed deeply on the other end of the phone.
Hearing his sigh, Joanna was stunned. “What’s wrong? Did something happen again?”
Jaydon sighed again in frustration. “No.
“Why did you call me?”
“Oh, it’s the day before Halloween today and Halloween tomorrow. I was afraid that you would miss Patricia, so I called you.”
After all, it was a holiday. People definitely wanted to reunite with their families. Joanna felt that Jaydon would want to take the little girl back.
“I was wondering if you were going to take Patricia back…”
Jaydon said in a deep voice, “No need. Let her stay at your place first! I’ll visit her after some time.”
“Oh, oh, that’s fine too. Do your thing first. You don’t have to worry about Patricia.”
Joanna comforted Jaydon, thinking that he was having a headache over business matters.
Jaydon was speechless. He frowned, not knowing what to say.
“Joann…”
Hearing his tone, Joanna’s heart tightened. “Jay, what’s wrong with you now?”
“Mr. Grimm, who’s calling?”
On the other end of the phone, Carmel’s coquettish voice sounded.
Jaydon’s voice sank. “Joann, I’ll talk to you later. I have something to deal with here.”
