The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 727

“Joann, don’t be so agitated,” Bruce said. “Please, I beg you to calm down and let me explain slowly, okay?

“I’m really not what you think I am. I really love you. You should know that I really love you!” As Bruce spoke, he

walked a few steps forward, attempting to hug her.

Joanna forcefully hit his hand and said, “Bruce, let go of me. Don’t touch me again!”

Bruce said, “Joann, Joann, after everything we’ve been through, can you give me a chance to explain…”

Bruce’s heart ached. He looked at Joanna helplessly.

“Let go,” Joanna said. “Let go of me!” She had an emotional breakdown.

She thought, “I could not eat or sleep well every day for such a long period of time.

“And he actually had the heart to lie to me like this?

“Why is there such a man that loves to lie so much in this world?

“And he can lie without showing any signs of nervousness or guilt on his face and in his heartbeat.”

This truly disgusted her.

Bruce took a deep breath. He knew that there was no point in explaining anymore. He should quickly admit his

mistake and apologize.

“Joann, I’m sorry,” he said. “I’m sorry. I was wrong. I was wrong. I shouldn’t have lied to you. I was really wrong.

“Please don’t be angry, okay? Joann, I’m really sorry!” As Bruce spoke, he still held her tightly in a domineering

manner and apologized continuously.

“Bruce, you bastard,” Joanna said. “Let go!” She hit and pushed him with all her might.

Unfortunately, it was in vain.

Her strength was completely ineffective against Bruce.

Being hugged by him forcefully, she had no strength to break free.

“I know,” Bruce said. “I know. Joann, I’m so sorry.

“I swear to God that I didn’t mean to lie to you. Previously, my brain was indeed not functioning properly. After the

second operation, I inexplicably recovered.

“I truly didn’t mean to lie to you. I’m just… I’m just afraid of losing you. I’m afraid that you’ll leave me.

“Joann, I’m sorry. Can you forgive me one last time?”

Bruce held her tightly in his arms. He rested his chin on her head and kept apologizing.

Joanna could not break free. She could only bury herself in his arms and cry loudly.

“Bruce, you bastard,” Joanna said. “Boohoo… How could you lie to me like this? How could you do this?”

Listening to Joanna’s heartbroken crying, Bruce’s eyes turned teary and his nose started to feel sore.

He involuntarily kissed her head to comfort her, wishing he could hold her tightly and closely.

He said, “Joann, I’m so sorry.

“Don’t cry anymore. It’s all my fault. You can hit me or scold me. As long as you can vent your anger, you can do

whatever you want.”

Joanna buried herself in his chest and cried until she gasped for breath.

Warm tears seeped through his white shirt, making her feel restless.

These many days of worry, fear, uneasiness, regret, and self-reproach intertwined and became an unresolved

sense of grievance.

Joanna opened her mouth and bit his chest.

“Ouch… Bruce winced in pain, but he tried his best to endure the pain.

Joanna bit him hard, but she could not bear to bite him hard again.

He had undergone surgery on his chest. A long incision was made from his chest to his navel.

Although the wound had healed, there were still a few scars on his chest.

“Go ahead and bite,” Bruce said. “As long as you can vent your anger, you can even bite me to death.

Joanna stopped biting, but she still cried with a sense of grievance and anger.

She kept crying.

Her stomach suddenly began to convulse, as if someone was pulling her intestines. “Sss…”

The immense pain almost made her faint, causing her to involuntarily bend forward.

Seeing this, Bruce panicked. He asked anxiously, “Joann, what’s wrong with you?”

Joanna was too agitated earlier. This caused her uterine muscles to contract. As a result, she felt severe pain in her

belly.

A faint stream of warm liquid flowed down her thigh.

She seemed to have broken her amniotic sac.

“I have a terrible stomachache!” she said.

“Did your uterine muscles contract?” Bruce said. “I’ll send you to the hospital now.” Bruce did not dare to delay any

further.

“Ah, my stomach hurts!” Joanna’s face instantly turned pale from the pain. The warm liquid between her legs

increased.

Upon seeing this, Bruce got even more frightened.

He hurriedly carried her. “Darcy, hurry up and get the car ready,” he said. “We need to go to the hospital right

away.”

“Got it, Mr. Everett,” Darcy said.

With Joanna’s large belly, it was very difficult to carry her in an arms carry.

Miranda and Kelly also hurried forward to help Bruce carry Joanna.

“Quick, inform the hospital!” Bruce said. “Call the doctor immediately.”

“Okay, got it!” Andy said. He was panicked too. He quickly called the maternity hospital.

“Ah, don’t move,” Joanna said. “I’m in so much pain!” Joanna was in so much pain that she could not stand straight.

She could only curl up and squat on the floor.

“Joann, hang in there,” Bruce said. “I’ll send you to the hospital now. You’ll be fine. Don’t be afraid!” Although Bruce

comforted Joanna, he was extremely nervous.

In the conference room, everyone looked at each other. “Oh my, um, do we still have to continue this meeting?”

“What meeting? Didn’t you see that Miss Haynes is going to deliver?”

“Tsk, tsk, tsk, Mr. Everett is really… He’s quite strange!”

“I know, right? He is completely controlled by Miss Haynes. It’s really unexpected that someone like Mr. Everett is so

afraid of his wife.”

“Well, that’s pampering your wife, not being afraid of your wife.”

“This is good too. Happy events bring joy. Hopefully, with the joy of Miss Haynes giving birth, Mr. Everett will be in a

good mood and won’t be so strict…
