The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 219

This damn woman, why the hell is she still going to Mossbourne while she’s pregnant?” Bruce cursed furiously, his

face contorted with displeasure.

The phone continued to ring, but Joanna adamantly refused to answer.

Meanwhile, Joanna was already undergoing a checkup.

All the tests met the surgical standards, and she was already lining up for the procedure.

Beep, beep, beep!

Bruce made three consecutive calls, yet Joanna remained unresponsive.

“Why the hell isn’t she picking up her damn phone?”

Luna carefully observed Bruce. “Mr. Everett, Cora accompanied Miss Haynes to Mossbourne!

“If you’re in a hurry, you can call Cora!”

Upon hearing this. Bruce furrowed his brow, his handsome face contorted with anger.

Unable to reach Joanna, he dialed Cora’s number instead.

Beep, beep, beep!

Cora was waiting in the lounge when she heard the phone ring. She swiftly took out her phone.

Noticing that it was a call from Mr. Everett, Cora wasted no time and promptly answered.

“Hello, Mr. Everett!”

On the other end of the line, Bruce’s voice turned cold. “Cora, are you with Joanna?”

“Well, yes!”

“What is she doing? Why the hell isn’t she answering her phone?” Bruce’s tone oozed aggression.

Taken aback. Cora stammered, “Uh… well…”

“Tell me now!”

“Miss Haynes is in the hospital!”

Bruce couldn’t comprehend the situation. He raised an eyebrow and asked, “What is she doing in the hospital?”

“She’s preparing for a procedure!” Cora couldn’t conceal anything and had to speak the truth.

“What kind of procedure?”

“An abortion!”

Bruce listened to the news and couldn’t believe his ears.

“What did you say? Say it again!”

“She is planning to have an abortion!”

This time, Bruce heard it loud and clear.

Upon hearing this news, he was consumed with anger.

That woman had the audacity!

For such a significant matter, she went ahead and underwent the procedure without even discussing it with him.

Regardless of whether she wanted this child or not, he was still the father! She should have consulted with him

before making a decision.

Even if she truly didn’t want this child, she should have sought his consent.

But now, Joanna was going to terminate his child without even considering him.

“Has the procedure been done yet?”

“Not yet, she’s still waiting! But she’ll be up next!”

Upon hearing this. Bruce furrowed his brow, took a deep breath, and angrily said. “Stop her immediately!

“No matter what, you cannot allow her to proceed. I’ll come right away!”

“Okay, understood!”

“Send me the address!”

“Sure, got it!”

Cora nodded obediently and quickly sent the address to Bruce.

After hanging up the phone, Bruce was seething with fury.

“Joanna Haynes, you damn woman, you’re really pushing me over the edge! How dare you!”

Bruce wasted no time. After leaving the Haynes Group, he immediately drove to Porash.

In the hospital, Joanna had already completed all the examinations.

There were several people at the maternity and child health center, and she was third in line.

Soon, the previous procedure was completed.

The nurse came out and called, “Next, Joanna Haynes!”

Upon hearing this, Joanna stood up and prepared to enter the operating room.

Cora rushed in from the waiting area and, seeing Joanna about to enter the operating room, promptly stopped her.

“Miss Haynes!”

“What’s the matter? Joanna asked.

Cora caught her breath and looked concerned, stuttering, “Are you having second thoughts?”

“No need to think twice!” Joanna checked her watch. It was already half past ten!

By having the procedure done carly, she could rest afterward! In the evening, she still had to go pick up Jaydon.

She had checked online and found that the earlier the fetus underwent the procedure, the quicker the recovery

would be!

Moreover, some people even went back to work in the afternoon after having the procedure done on the same

day!

She no longer had the luxury of being delicate and indecisive. She had to tough it out.

Chapter 219

Cora anxiously scratched her ears. “No, no. This is a human life. You really need to think it through!”

Joanna glanced at Cora with indifference. “No need to think about it!

“The company is in chaos right now. I can’t afford to be distracted! I know what I’m doing. There’s no need for

further persuasion!”

As soon as she finished speaking, the nurse shouted impatiently again, “Where’s Joanna Haynes?”

“Right here, coming!” Joanna promptly replied.

“No, Miss Haynes, please reconsider!” Cora blocked her path.

“What’s gotten into you. Cora?”

Cora urgently expressed, “I just feel that regardless of anything, a child’s life is at stake. We have to consider it

carefully!

“And it’s probably best… to discuss it with Mr. Everett. After all, he’s the child’s father!”

Joanna’s face fell upon hearing this. “What’s there to discuss with him? He probably can’t wait to get rid of this

child!” With, that, she headed towards the operating theater.

“Miss Haynes. I implore you to think again!” Cora saw that persuading Joanna was futile, so she tightly grasped her

sleeve.

Cora had been instructed by Mr. Everett to stop Joanna. How could she dare to disobey!

“What’s wrong with you?”

“I–I’m just afraid that you’ll regret it later!”

Impatience crept onto Joanna’s beautiful face as she furrowed her brow. “Don’t worry! I won’t regret it!”

“Think it through! You can do it another day!”

“What’s going on?” Joanna’s expression turned frigid.

She had never been angry with Cora before, but today, Cora’s actions inexplicably frustrated her.

Not daring to persuade Joanna any further, Cora cautiously spoke, “Um… Mr. Everett just called!”

Joanna was dazed.

“Mr. Everett said that no matter what, I have to stop you!”

Upon hearing Coco’s words, Joanna walked towards the operating room without any delay!

“Cora, don’t get involved!

This is my own decision. No one can stop me!”

“Miss Haynes…” Cora appeared helpless and anxious.

She was just an employee! How could she dare to interfere in the directors‘ affairs?

Joanna shook off Cora’s grip and resolutely walked toward the operating room.

She would not bring this child into the world!

Regardless of whether Bruce agreed or not, she had to terminate this pregnancy!

Joanna walked into the operating room, clutching the medical file tightly in her hands.

Chapter 219

The nurse reached out and took the file. “Give me the medical record!

“Are you Joanna Haynes?”

That’s right, Joanna confirmed.

Take off your pants and lie down on the operating table,” the nurse instructed.

“Okay,” Joanna complied.

With slowness, Joanna removed her pants and obediently positioned herself on the operating table.

Meanwhile, the doctor prepared for the procedure while the nurse readied the anesthesia.

The operating room was chilly, intensifying Joanna’s unease as she lay on the table.

“Doctor, how long will this surgery take?” Joanna asked.

“It’ll be quick, less than half an hour,” the doctor reassured her.

“Okay,” Joanna acknowledged.

As the nurse prepared the anesthesia, the doctor began disinfecting with iodine.

But suddenly, just as the surgery was about to begin, chaos erupted, shattering the silence of the operating room.

“Make way! Clear the path!” An urgent voice shouted.

“This is the operating room! You can’t come in! Wait outside!” the nurse commanded.

“Move aside!” the voice insisted.

“Someone, call the police! There’s trouble!” someone exclaimed.

A group of imposing bodyguards forcefully pushed their way forward, shoving the nurse aside.

In a forceful motion, the doors of the operating room swung open.

Several strong and intimidating men stormed in, creating an ominous atmosphere.

The doctors and nurses, frightened by the intrusion, quickly retreated to the sides.

Bruce entered with a cold expression, radiating anger.

Joanna was shocked to see Bruce.

In a panic, she covered her body and exclaimed, “Bruce, why are you here?”

“Joanna, what are you up to?” Bruce’s face contorted with rage, his eyes piercing like a predator.

“Bruce, my actions have nothing to do with you!” Joanna retorted, her voice filled with defiance.

“Get down!” Bruce lunged toward the operating table, forcefully lifting Joanna off it.

“What are you doing? Are you out of your mind?” Joanna protested.

“Do

you dare to secretly try to abort my child?” Bruce accused.

“Who

gave you the right? Who agreed?”

Joanna seethed with anger, locking eyes with Bruce, tears welling up. “Bruce, I’ve already told you that the child

has nothing.

to do with you!”

“Don’t lie to me!” Bruce snapped back.

“What do you think you’re doing? Let go!” Joanna struggled against his grip.

“Come back with me! This is my child, and without my consent, you won’t be able to take my child’s life!” Bruce

declared firmly.
