The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna) novel Chapter 1083

Chapter 1083 

Darcy returned to the dormitory with a gloomy expression. 

Then Grace ran over. She asked, “Darcy, what did Joann just say to you?” 

Darcy’s eyes darkened and he forced a smile. “Nothing.” 

“When are you going to talk about resigning?” Grace asked carefully. 

Darcy pondered for a few seconds and said in an irrefutable tone, “Grace, I won’t resign for the time being.” 

After hearing that, Grace looked disappointed. “Why?” 

“I just told you that I won’t resign for the time being. At least for the next year, I won’t consider resigning,” Darcy replied. 

“Darcy, why are you so stubborn?” 

“Grace, our relationship isn’t very stable yet. We still need time to get used to each other. This year will serve as a period for us to get to know each other better. I don’t want you to regret it in the future. It’s also giving you another choice. 

“If our relationship is still stable after a year, I will listen to your suggestion and quit my job.” Darcy looked at Grace deeply. 

Although Darcy was not as rich as Grace, he was still worth over 20 million dollars. If he didn’t blindly indulge in investments or anything like that, this money would be enough for him to live a comfortable life without worries. 

Moreover, Darcy had been around Bruce for a long time. It was only natural that he would pick up some of Bruce’s character traits and arrogance. 

He would rather die than live off a woman. 

Grace saw his serious expression and knew that she could not persuade him. She could only make a compromise. Then she said, “Remember what you said. It’s a deal.” 

“It’s a deal.” 

“Pinky promise.” 

Darcy was amused by Grace’s cute and serious tone. He stretched out his finger and hooked it with hers. 

“Pinky promise. You’re not allowed to lie for 100 years.” 

After the pinky promise, Grace smiled sweetly and leaped onto Darcy. 

She wrapped her legs tightly around him and dangled her arms around his neck. 

“Don’t worry. Let alone a year, we’ll love each other for the rest of our lives and never be separated.” 

Grace was incredibly passionate and completely unaware of restraint and reserve. Every day, she took the initiative and was tirelessly enthusiastic. 

Due to Grace, Darcy had been feeling a bit overwhelmed these days. 

“Haha. Grace, hurry up and come down. It’s broad daylight now. What if someone sees us like this?” 

‘I don’t want to. I just like hanging on you like this.” Grace securely hung onto Darcy. 

The two had a huge contrast in physiques. 

Darcy was tall and burly. With a muscular build, he was nearly 6.6 feet in height. On the other hand, Grace was very petite

and adorable. Darcy could effortlessly hold her in his arms anytime, just like holding a doll. 

And Grace absolutely loved being held by Darcy like this. She could feel her boyfriend’s strong presence, which provided her with a sense of security. 

It was half past six in the afternoon. 

Joanna returned to the house uneasily. 

Bruce and the children were already waiting for her to have dinner. Bruce asked, “Joann, where did you go just now?” 

Joanna’s eyes flickered. “Well, it’s nothing. I just went to talk to Grace for a bit.” 

Bruce looked curious. Then he asked, “What were you talking about?” 

“Well, nothing much. We were just talking about her and Darcy,” Joanna said perfunctorily. 

“It’s almost time to have dinner. The children are waiting anxiously.” 

“Alright. I’ll be back after washing my hands,” Joanna said and went straight to the second floor to change her clothes. 

When she was at home, it was more comfortable to wear pajamas. She had just gone to see Darcy, so she certainly could not wear pajamas. 

Ten minutes passed. 

Joanna changed into her pajamas and slowly walked to the dining room. 

“Mommy, Christmas is just two days away.” Davian reminded Joanna excitedly. 

Irvin chimed in, “That’s right. We’re going to be a year older again. You have to prepare big gifts for us this year. 

“Mommy, can we decide on this year’s gifts ourselves?” 

Joanna sat down in her seat. Then she asked, “When did all of you become so obsessed with money? 

“Hurry up and eat. After dinner, you can practice the piano.” 

Irvin retorted playfully, “Mommy, it’s finally vacation time. Can’t we just relax a bit?” 

“That’s right. Don’t keep talking about homework and studying all the time. Aren’t you afraid we’ll turn into bookworms?” 

“Well. With you all being so mischievous, it’s hard for you to become bookworms,” Joanna replied. 

After Joanna finished speaking, she shouted toward the small living room, “Lilia, stop practicing and come over to have dinner.” 

The small living room had been converted into a training room for Lilia to train every day. 

“Got it, Mommy,” Lilia replied. Then she made her way slowly to the dining room while leaning on her cane. 

Although she no longer needed the cane to walk, it provided her with more stability. 

“Sweetie, are you tired?” 

Lilia sat down in her seat and said happily, “I’m not tired. Whenever I think about how soon I’ll be able to learn ballet, I don’t feel tired at all.” 

“Ah, my sweetie,” Joanna sighed with both affection and concern. 

Lilia was really putting in a lot of effort to stand up. 

2/4 

“Let’s start eating.” 

Then they began their meal. 

Lilia was the last to arrive and the first to finish eating. 

“Daddy, Mommy, I’m full,” Lilia said. As she spoke, Lilia stood up and prepared to leave. 

“I’m going to continue training. You guys take your time eating.” 

Joanna looked surprised. “You’re full from just that little bit of food?” 

“Yes. If I eat too much, I’ll get sleepy easily,” Lilia said as she left the dining room with her cane. 

Davian and Irvin also finished eating quickly. “Mommy, we’re full too.” 

“Don’t go into the room to play games. You have just eaten. You need to exercise.” 

“Got it,” Davian and Irvin replied. Then they got up and ran away. 

It was the end of the year. They bought a lot of Christmas lights and candies. Every night, they had a lot of fun in the garden. 

Only Bruce and Joanna remained in the dining room, along with Devin. 

“Lilian, Devin has to eat more supplementary food in the future. He can’t just drink milk,” Joanna said. After saying that, Joanna cut a little steak and placed it in Devin’s bowl. 

“Got it, Mrs. Everett.” 

Devin was already more than a year old. He looked lively and adorable. 

He could eat many things now. 

Then, all of them finished dinner. 

Soon, it was ten o’clock at night. 

After Joanna washed up, she planned to sleep. 

“Joann, haven’t you recovered yet?” Bruce leaned over suggestively and reached out to hold her. 

Joanna’s heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously moved to the side of the bed. “I’m very tired today. Get some rest early.” 

Bruce frowned when he heard that. 

Joanna didn’t say anything else. She turned around and had her back facing him.
