The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 855

Joanna thought to herself, “Bruce is getting jealous again.”

“Why aren’t you saying anything? What’s the deal with that Prince Hammer?” Bruce asked with a dark expression.

Joanna sighed in annoyance. Then she said, “Don’t listen to Lilia’s nonsense.”

“What’s going on? Tell me,” Bruce said. He kept pressing Joanna for more information.

Seeing that he wouldn’t let it go, Joanna pursed her lips.

She could only tell the truth. Otherwise, Bruce would be thinking nonsense again. Then she said, “I met this person

at the airport of Antlen previously. I didn’t expect to meet him again at the airport of Gaprington this time.”

When Bruce heard this, his face darkened. “Who is that person?”

“Well. He seems to be a prince from some country in Medsland.

“He was called Harman.”

“Harman?” Bruce frowned, and he instantly felt jealous.

Although he had never seen Harman before, he had heard of him.

Moreover, Harman was his junior in school, two years below him.

When they were studying in Antlen, they attended the same school.

school as soon as he entered.

During their time at the school, Prince Harman was an influential figure in the so

However, Bruce chose to drop out of school before completing his studies. Bruce dropped out the same year Prince

Harman had just entered that school. Therefore, the two of them had not had the chance to meet.

“Is he Prince Harman from Saumi Cradia?” Bruce asked.

“Oh, yes. That’s him.”

Bruce frowned and said disdainfully, “Well. That guy is quite a womanizer. You had better be careful and not fall for

his tricks.”

Actually, Saumi Cradia was a small country in Medsland.

However, this country was incredibly wealthy due to its oil and gemstone reserves. Moreover, the king held

absolute power in the country. Unlike countries like Antlen or Roseliand, where the royal family had a symbolic role

and no political power.

Therefore, if Prince Harman took a genuine interest in Joanna, he would indeed be a formidable love rival.

“What are you thinking? He’s a prince. How could he be interested in me? We just happened to meet. Stop

overthinking things.” Joanna didn’t consider any other possibilities.

Bruce felt even more upset after hearing this.

“What’s so special about being a prince? He’s still just a regular man.”

Joanna was the woman that Bruce could fall for.

Bruce thought that other men would naturally be attracted to Joanna too. Bruce trusted his judgment.

Honestly, Joanna was really very beautiful. Even though she was already the mother of four children, she still looked

like a girl who was from a fairy tale.

Her hair was longer now, and her temperament was gentler and more elegant. Any man would be mesmerized by

her.

Joanna was speechless.

“I’m talking to you. Do you hear me?”

“Alright) Stop being paranoid. Now, I have to unpack my luggage. I just got off the plane and I feel like I’m falling

apart.

“I’m going to take a shower and have a good sleep.”

“Well. After you met that stupid prince, you don’t even want to talk to me on the phone.”

Joanna chuckled in exasperation upon hearing this.

She thought to herself, “Bruce is really so jealous.”

Bruce’s face darkened and he said gloomily, “From now on, you’re not allowed to hang up the video call.”

“Come on. I have to take a shower later and sleep early. I still have to go to the hospital tomorrow.”

“You still have to keep the video on.” Bruce’s tone brooked no argument.

When Joanna heard this, she felt both irritated and amused. “Are you serious?”

“Yes. I want to keep my eyes on you at all times. I can’t let you out of my sight.”

After hearing that, Joanna was completely speechless.

“Stop fooling around. I really need to take a shower.”

Bruce heaved a sigh of relief. “Just do what you have to do. Just keep the video on.”

“The phone will run out of battery later.”

“Then charge it.”

“Don’t be ridiculous. Don’t you have work to do?”

“You don’t have to worry about me.”

“Alright. Do as you please.” Joanna couldn’t be bothered to argue with him.

She kept the video on. Then she got up, took her sleeping robe, and went into the bathroom.

She wanted to take a shower and have a good sleep.

The two servants also helped Lilia take a shower.

Twenty minutes passed.

After showering, Joanna wiped her wet hair with a towel and came out of the bathroom wrapped in a sleeping robe.

Then she looked at her phone.

The screen was still lit.

As expected, Bruce had not hung up.

“Haha. You’re still on, huh?”

Meanwhile, Bruce was handling work in the office.

However, he would turn his head to look at the video screen from time to time.

“Are you done showering?” Bruce moved closer to the phone.

Joanna’s heart skipped a beat. “Well. I’m really impressed by you.

“What are you doing?”

“What else can I do? I’m working.”

“Didn’t

you go to Porash? Did you settle the matter?”

“I’m waiting for news now. I might have to make another trip tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.”

Joanna asked worriedly, “Will it be very troublesome?”

“It’s alright. Don’t worry. I can handle it.”

“Well. That’s good to hear,” Joanna said, stifling a yawn.

Then she blew her hair with a hairdryer.

After more than ten hours on the plane, she was really sleepy.

After drying her hair, she applied a sheet mask.

“I’m hanging up now. I’m really tired and need to sleep. I have to go to the hospital early tomorrow.”

Bruce replied nonchalantly, “Just put the phone on the bedside table and go to sleep.”

After hearing that, Joanna looked at his handsome and serious face in astonishment.

“You don’t seriously intend to video call all night, do you?”

Bruce shrugged slightly. “I already told you that I want to keep an eye on you at all times.”

“That’s nonsense. The phone will explode.”

“Well. You can just go to sleep.”

“Alright. Do whatever you want,” Joanna replied. As Joanna spoke, she plugged in the phone and placed it on the

phone stand at the bedside.

She pointed the camera toward the bed.

Bruce was extremely stubborn.

If he wanted something done, nobody dared to go against his wishes, or they would invite trouble upon themselves.

“Is this okay?”

“Okay. Go to sleep.” Bruce’s lips curled into a triumphant smile.

“Good night.”

“Good night, honey,” Bruce said and kissed the phone screen.

Joanna could not be bothered with him anymore. She crawled into bed and began to sleep.

After she lay down, a while passed.

Then Joanna fell asleep in a daze.

She slept soundly until dawn.

The next day arrived.

It was seven-thirty in the morning.

Before the alarm rang, Joanna woke up early.

“Good morning, Mommy.” Lilia came out of the other room.

They stayed in the presidential suite, which had three rooms. She and Lilia each stayed in one.

Tatiana shared a room with the nanny.

“Good morning, sweetie.” Joanna yawned and tore off the sheet mask that had dried up on her face. Bruce’s

drawling and attractive voice suddenly came from the phone at the bedside. “You’re awake, honey?” Joanna was

stunned. She subconsciously glanced at the phone.
