The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 989

Joanna was at a loss for words. She heaved a sigh of relief. A hint of relief finally appeared on her face.

She said, “I’m really fine!

“Thank God, Grace is finally safe.”

If Grace were to be harmed by those thugs, Joanna’s conscience would be troubled for the rest of her life.

Fortunately, Grace was in danger but ultimately unharmed. Joanna did not have to bear such a heavy psychological

burden anymore.

Joanna had just heaved a sigh of relief when she suddenly thought of Jaydon. She said, “What about Jay?

“Hurry up and tell him the good news so he doesn’t have to worry anymore.”

Bruce frowned slightly and said, “I’ll call him now.”

“Beep. Beep. Beep.”

Meanwhile, Jaydon was anxious and distressed. He did not know what to do.

Seeing a call from Bruce, he quickly picked up the call. “Hello,” he said. “How is it?”

Bruce’s calm voice came from the other end of the line. “Your sister has been rescued and has been sent to the

hospital,” he said.

Jaydon was at a loss for words. Upon hearing this, his heart, which felt like it had been weighed down by a heavy

burden, was instantly relieved. The hand that was holding the phone went from trembling at the beginning to being

spasmodic now.

He felt so grateful that he did not know what to say.

After a long while, Jaydon then thanked him solemnly. He said, “Bruce, thank you.

“If it weren’t for your help this time, I really wouldn’t know what to do. Anyway, how can I thank you…”

Jaydon was so excited that he spoke incoherently.

Now, he could deal with Cassius without any worries.

Upon hearing that, Bruce raised his eyebrows and smirked arrogantly. “Enough of that!” he said. “Hurry up and do

your thing.”

With that, he hung up without waiting for Jaydon to reply.

Bruce had a complex personality. He was cold and arrogant. He also looked like the kind of person who would use

people for his own benefit and subsequently discard them when they were no longer useful. In addition, he also

looked like someone who would use any means necessary to achieve his goals.

In actual fact, however, he was definitely the sort of person who would repay kindness.

Even though he kept saying that he wanted to beat Jaydon to death, he would still help Jaydon at critical moments.

Seeing that Bruce hang up so quickly, Joanna asked nervously, “What did Jay say?

“Why are you in such a hurry to hang up? I haven’t even heard what he’s saying.”

Joanna looked worried.

Bruce looked at Joanna with a hint of jealousy and said, “The matter has been perfectly resolved. Why do I still want

to talk so much nonsense with him?”

“You can ask him if he needs any help or if there’s anything we can do to assist,” Joanna said.

“Whatever,” Bruce said. “Let him handle the rest himself.” He then leisurely sipped his coffee.

Joanna was left speechless. She frowned upon hearing that.

“This damn guy is really despicable,” she thought.

“Can’t you just help him and see things through to the end?” Joanna said.

“See things through to the end?” Bruce said. “Should I help him until he goes to the afterlife?” Bruce rolled his eyes

arrogantly and replied sulkily.

“Bruce, your mouth is really foul,” Joanna said. “Can’t you speak nicely?” Joanna looked at Bruce speechlessly.

“I’ve already helped him solve the most difficult problems,” Bruce said. “If he can’t handle these remaining small

issues, then he’s not worthy of being called a man. If I were him, I would just die.” Bruce used his sharp tongue to

mock Jaydon.

Joanna was left speechless.

Bruce said, “Okay. Okay. He can handle the rest of the matter on his own.

“If he can’t handle it, I’ll help.”

As Bruce spoke, he could not help but be sarcastic again. He muttered under his breath, “Sigh, when your old flame

is in trouble, you’re more anxious than anyone else.

“If I were in trouble, I don’t even know if you would be so anxious.”

“What did you say?” Joanna said. “What are you mumbling about again?” Joanna looked displeased.

“This damn guy is being jealous again,” she thought.

Bruce changed his expression instantly and chuckled at her. “It’s nothing,” he said. “What else can I mutter?”

When Joanna heard this, she sighed helplessly. Then, she took the initiative to sit on his lap.

She gently caressed his handsome face and said, “Hubby, you did a good job these past few days.

“I’m sorry. I overlooked your feelings and made you jealous again.”

Upon saying that, Joanna looked into his eyes affectionately. Then, she took the initiative to kiss his thin lips.

“In my heart, Jay is just a friend and someone that I am beholden to,” she said. “My feelings for him are purely out

of gratitude.

“I hope you won’t be jealous of him. We’re married now. We should trust each other and be understanding toward

each other.”

Upon hearing that, Bruce quickly denied it stubbornly. He said, “I’m not jealous!

“What ability does he have to make me jealous?

“He’s ugly, dumb, and weak. He’s also a playboy. Do I need to be jealous of him?

“He’s not like me. I’m handsome, smart, and have a great figure. I’m also rich and dedicated. Can there be another

perfect man like me in the world?”

“Ugh…” Joanna was left speechless. She muffled her voice as she made a choking sound, choking so badly that it

felt like it could cause internal injuries.

“This damn guy is either narcissistic or on his way to becoming narcissistic,” Joanna thought.

“Why do you have such an expression?” Bruce said. “Am I wrong? In your eyes, am I not a perfect man that is good

and a man that has no equal?”

Joanna’s eyes were fixed on him. She immediately stood up from his lap. “Alright,” she said. “Alright. I can’t listen to

this anymore.

“If I continue listening, my ears will go crazy!”

“Where are you going?” Bruce asked. Seeing that she was about to leave, Bruce reached out and pulled her into his

arms again.

Joanna noticed the intense passion in Bruce’s eyes. She quickly said seriously, “I’m going to see the children. Stop

fooling around!”

“Why are you in such a hurry?” Bruce said. “You’ve been busy with the jerk’s business for the past two days. You’ve

neglected my feelings. You have to make it up to me now.” Bruce’s big hand started to get naughty.

He was going to Melta soon.

He did not know when he would be able to return, nor did he know if he would be able to return safely.

Right now, he did not want to think about anything else. He just wanted to wallow in her tenderness.

“Jeez, stop fooling around!” Joanna said. “I’m not in the mood to…” Joanna quickly turned him down.

She had not rested well for the past two days. Now, she was so tired that her eyes were struggling to stay open.

“And this damn guy is always full of energy,” she thought.

Sometimes, she really could not handle it.

Each time after getting intimate with Bruce, her entire body would feel sore and weak, as if she had climbed fifty

floors.

“No!” Bruce said. “You just said it yourself that you have neglected my feelings.

“Now, you have to be sensitive to my feelings…”

After Bruce finished talking, he suddenly stood up and carried her like carrying a light doll.’ He hoisted her upside

down onto his shoulder.

He was very tall. As Joanna was being carried on his shoulder, she screamed in fear, “Ah… Put me down. My head is

spinning. My ribs are broken…”

Unfortunately, her resistance was futile. Soon, she was carried into the bedroom.

With a click, the door was locked.

Usually, no one dared to enter their bedroom other than the servants who cleaned the house.

However, it was always locked to prevent the children from barging in.

Darcy was at the hospital.

He had quickly sent Grace here.

After a round of examination and treatment…

“Doc, how is Ms. Grace’s condition?” Darcy said. “Is she seriously injured?”

“I’ve already examined Ms. Grace,” the doctor said. “There’s nothing

serious. She’s just frightened, and her body is a little weak.

“She will need some time to rest and recuperate. We have already administered glucose to her.”
