The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna) novel Chapter 71

Chapter 71
Bruce’s heart ached when he saw Joanna’s current state and pulled her tightly into his arms.
“Joann, I know I’ve hurt you in the past. I’ll slowly make up for it in the future…”
Under the effects of the drug, Joanna’s emotions stabilized.
She didn’t need Bruce to make any amends.
Some things could never be undone.
Joanna coldly withdrew from Bruce’s embrace and asked disdainfully, “Mr. Everett, why do you like. barging into the female washroom so much?”
The words stuck in Bruce’s throat as he studied Joanna’s expression suspiciously.
She looked like she was on the verge of collapse and was even hurting herself. It made one’s heart. ache to look at her.
However, she had returned to her previous aggressive self in the blink of an eye.
“Joanna, are you alright?”
Joanna regained her composure and looked back at Bruce calmly. “Mr. Everett, that’s a strange question to ask.
“I should be the one asking if you are alright. If you keep barging into the ladies’ room like this, you’ll be arrested as a lu natic!”
Bruce pursed his lips and pointed at the ball of hair on the ground. “You were hurting yourself just now. Do you know that?”
“Ha! It’s just hair. So what if it falls off? It’s not like it won’t grow back!”
Bruce was even more shocked when he heard this. “Don’t you feel pain tearing off so much hair?”
“I have an itchy scalp and like to pull my hair. Is there a problem?” Joanna crossed her arms and stared back at Bruce.
Bruce’s eyes flickered. He vaguely felt that something was amiss.
But looking at Joanna’s reaction, he did not want to agitate her further.
“Alright, alright, alright. You win. I can’t win an argument against you.
“By the way, clean out an office for me.”
“What for?”
“I’m coming to work for the Haynes Group from now on.”
Joanna did not say anything. She subconsciously let go of her crossed arms when she heard this and looked at Bruce in confusion.
“You’re coming to work for the Haynes Group?”
Bruce shrugged slightly. “Yes, is there a problem?”
Speechless, Joanna snorted. “Mr. Everett, can you stop fooling around?”
The Everett Group was the leading company of Greyport, with billion-dollar assets!
There were already so many things that he had to handle with his own company, so why would Bruce come to work for the Haynes Group?
“I’m serious! In the future, I’ll take some time off and come here to work.”

Joanna’s face darkened. “Bruce, what are you trying to do?”
Bruce smiled and answered solemnly, “Leave Jaydon and become my woman.”
“Did I hear wrongly? You’re about to be engaged to Roxanne. Don’t you think you’re going overboard?”
“It’s true I’m getting engaged. So, will you be my lover?”
“Ha! To think that you are shameless enough to say that!”
Bruce exhaled and looked at Joanna with a faint smile. “I won’t allow you to date other men from today onwards.
“You can only be my woman in this lifetime!”
“Crazy b astard!” Joanna could not be bothered to waste her breath on him and turned around to leave.
Bruce took two steps forward and grabbed her arm. He asked a question that brought up the past, Joanna, who is the children’s father?
“You dare not let the children do a paternity test because they are mine, am I right?”
Joanna frowned and pushed Bruce away angrily. “I already said my children have nothing to do with you!”
“Since the children have nothing to do with me, why are you afraid I’ll take them for a paternity test?”
“Ha, you’re strange, Mr. Everett. Why should my children do a paternity test with you?
“Stop dreaming. My children have nothing to do with you!”
Bruce shrugged nonchalantly when he heard this. “Alright, if you say so.
“Now, I’m solemnly telling you that I will no longer ask about the past.
“From today onwards, you’re my woman! You can’t date other men, let alone let them touch your body!
“Otherwise, you know the consequences!”
Joanna was so angry that she laughed. “Why should I listen to you?”
“Because you’re relying on me now!”
“I don’t need to rely on you!”
“Alright then. I’ll call the president of the Stark Group now and tell him to rescind his contract with the Haynes Group.”
“Bruce, don’t go overboard!” Joanna could no longer suppress the fury in her heart.
Her chest hurt from anger, and she could not help but hit Bruce’s arms a few times.
He really knew how to drive her crazy!
Bruce grabbed her arm and forced her into a corner. “If you hit me again, I’ll take you right here!”
“You lu natic!”
Bruce laughed mockingly. “You’ll have to leave Greyport forever if you wish to be rid of me completely.
“You’ll have no choice but to be my woman if you want to continue living in Greyport.”
“Ha! Fine. I’ll be your woman. But what about Roxanne?”
Chapter 71
Bruce paused and pondered for a few seconds. “She will be my wife, and you will be my lover. Is there a problem?”
“Do you think Roxanne will agree?”
Bruce smiled slyly. “It doesn’t matter if she agrees or not. It’s done as long as you agree.”
He was already reluctant to give Roxanne the status of his wife. Roxanne would have to agree even if she didn’t want to.
“Never! I’ll never agree even if you kill me!”
