The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

hapter 171

“They’re just kids…”

Bruce raised his eyebrows. His tone was sour and sharp. “They’re already four years old. How can you

see them as kids still? The son and mother should be parted once the son gets old enough. Don’t you

know such common sense?”

Joanna was so angry that she almost spat out a mouthful of blood. She rolled her eyes. “They’re only

four years old. What’s the big deal?”

“They’re already four years old. They’re already old enough! Kids nowadays mature very early!”

Bruce just didn’t want the children to be too dependent on Joanna.

These two little fellows were actually not close to him at all. As their father, he was very unhappy.

He felt that all Joanna cared about were the children and didn’t care about him at all.

“Alright, alright. I can’t be bothered to argue with you!”

Bruce snorted and turned to look at the servant. “Lilian, take the children to take a shower!”

“Yes, sir,” replied Lilian.

She quickly brought the two maids forward and said fawningly, “Davian, Irvin, let’s go take a shower!”

Lilian was a top nutritionist and a professional nurse. She was also the team leader in charge of the

Everett family’s maids.

Lilian was basically in charge of taking care of the two little children’s food and daily needs for the past

two weeks.

“Mommy, we want to bathe with you!”

Bruce’s expression turned fierce. “Hurry up and go. You’re all big children. How can you shower with

your mother?”

Joanna squatted down and looked at the two little guys gently. “Go with Lilian.”

“Okay…” The two little guys glanced at Bruce’s sullen face and did not dare to say anymore. They

could only follow Lilian.

Joanna suddenly stood up and glared at him in dissatisfaction. “Bruce, can you not be so fierce to the

children?”

Bruce raised his eyebrows and asked, “Am I very fierce?”

“Don’t you know?”

Bruce furrowed his brows again.

He was very gentle to his daughter and was very careful everywhere. He looked like a loving father!

He really did not have much patience for the two brats. No wonder the little fellows were unwilling to get

close to him!

“We’re all boys. There’s no need to speak gently.”

“Even if they’re boys, they’re still children!

“They’ll be scared if you yell at them like that.”

Bruce was 6.2 feet tall and had muscles all over his body. He exuded a murderous aura and dignity.

When he wasn’t smiling, he was indeed very scary. The air pressure around him was already cold to

begin with, and when he frowned, he looked even more terrifying than the Grim Reaper.

However, he didn’t think so. He was just a little jealous.

Joanna was exhausted and didn’t want to argue with Bruce anymore. Instead, she sat on the sofa

quietly and rested her head on her hand.

Bruce rubbed his nose resentfully and sat opposite her.

10 minutes later.

Joanna still didn’t say a word. The atmosphere was awkward.

If it were anyone else facing Bruce like this, the atmosphere would definitely not be so cold.

He was also used to others racking their brains to liven up the atmosphere and try their best to please

him.

Only Joanna would ignore him like this..

Another five minutes passed.

Bruce finally couldn’t hold it in anymore.

“Why are you just sitting there? Aren’t you going to take a shower?”

Joanna did not even raise her head as she replied coldly, “No need.”

“You’ve been running for two days and you’re sweating so much. If you don’t take a shower, who are

you trying to stink to death?”

Joanna rolled her eyes and looked at Bruce coldly.

Bruce’s face darkened. “Why are you looking at me? You still have to go to the hospital tomorrow to

take care of Lilia. Aren’t you afraid of spreading germs to Lilia?”

When Joanna heard this, her eyes drooped, and there was finally a trace of life in her eyes.

She was really exhausted these two days. She should really have a shower.

“Alright!” Joanna stood up.

She had never stayed in Room the Everett mansion and did not know which room was suitable for her

to take a shower in.

“Where’s the guest room?”

Bruce pouted his lips. “Follow me!”

Five minutes later.

Bruce brought her to the room he used to live in.

Although he rarely stayed here now, the servants still cleaned and tidied his room every day.

Therefore, the roof was very clean and spacious.

“Is this a guest room?”

“Why do you care? Hurry up and take a shower!”

Joanna pursed her lips and entered the room reluctantly.

“You can leave now!”

Bruce gritted his teeth and smiled bitterly before walking out.

Chapter 171

Joanna immediately locked the door.

After confirming that it couldn’t be opened from the outside, she entered the bathroom in peace

The washroom was very spacious!

There was a Jacuzzi and various toiletries.

Joanna turned on the thermostat switch, filled the bathtub with water, and added bubble powder.

Then, she took off her clothes and lay in the bathtub.

The warm water was very comfortable.

Joanna lay in the bubble bath and her fatigue was greatly reduced.

After soaking for a few minutes, Joanna lay on the edge of the bathtub and fell asleep.

“Click!” The bathroom door was pushed open.

Bruce just walked in like that.

N

Joanna was shocked. She quickly grabbed a towel and wrapped it around herself. She looked at Bruce

in horror. “Why did you come in?”

She remembered that the door was locked just now!

Seeing her nervous reaction, Bruce snorted. “I came in to give you clothes!”

As he spoke, Bruce threw a silk sleeping robe on the clothes rack in the bathtub!

Joanna took a deep breath. She was angry and anxious. “Can’t you ask a female to bring the clothes?

“I just locked the door. How did you get in?”

When Bruce heard this, he smiled disapprovingly, “I’m your ex–husband after all. Is there anything

about you that I haven’t seen before?”

Joanna choked in anger and glared at him fiercely. “Bruce, get out right now!”

“Well, what’s there to hide? It’s not like I haven’t seen it before!”

Joanna was so angry that her cheeks burned. She was going crazy.

Bruce immediately took off his shirt and began to unbuckle his belt!

“What are you doing?” Joanna was extremely frightened and quickly wrapped the towel tighter.

“This is my room. I’m here to have a shower of course.”

When Joanna heard this, she was so angry that her eyes turned red and her entire body trembled.

“Bruce, you said that you wouldn’t touch me. If you do this, I’ll leave with the children now!”

Seeing her reaction was so intense!

Bruce stopped taking off his clothes. “Alright, alright, alright, I’ll leave, I’ll leave!”

As he spoke, Bruce left the washroom resentfully.

Click! He closed the door again!

Joanna was so scared that his heart was pounding. This bastard definitely had the key to the room!

Chapter 171

Fortunately, he did not force himself on her!

However, Joanna did not dare to take a bath anymore. She was even more afraid that Bruce would

barge in again!

Joanna quickly got out of the bathtub, rinsed off the foam on her body with the water from the shower,

and hastily changed into her clothes!

Only after a while did her nervous and frightened emotions calm down a little.

Meanwhile, in the living room.

The servants had already prepared a sumptuous supper.

Although Bruce did not have the habit of eating supper, the children and Joanna did not eat much the

entire day. He still instructed the servants to

prepare a sumptuous supper.

Bruce and the children were already waiting at the dining table.

“Mommy, why are you so slow!”

“Urgh… Mommy was a little tired just now!” Joanna subconsciously glanced at Bruce.

There was a playful smile on his lips, pretending to be nonchalant.

It was as if the matter of him barging into the washroom was not worth mentioning.

“Have some supper!”

“I don’t have an appetite!” Joanna sat down at the dining table, feeling a little uneasy.

Bruce put a mouthful of porridge into his mouth. “You haven’t eaten anything all day. If you don’t eat

something, how can your body take it?”

There were caviar sandwiches on the dining table, fried noodles with silver teeth, Yaozhu porridge, and

so on..

The two little fellows ate happily. Although they had been frightened for the past two days, it did not

affect their appetite at all!

Meanwhile, Joanna had no appetite at all. He sat there in a daze and watched the children eat.

Especially after being frightened by Bruce just now, she could not eat!

Now, she really wanted to leave with the children. How would she dare to stay the night? Who knew if

he would barge into her room again in the middle of the night?

Davian handed a tuna sandwich to Joanna. “Mommy, this is delicious! Have some!”

“Mommy doesn’t want to eat. You can eat!”

“Have a bite!” Davian insisted on bringing the sandwich to her lips.

Joanna did not want Davian to be disappointed, so she took a bite weakly.

Seeing this, Irvin personally poured a glass of milk for Joanna. “Mommy, have a glass of milk!”

Joanna smiled and silently took the cup.

She put it to her lips and took a few sips. She really couldn’t eat anything. She would just drink a glass

of milk to replenish her nutrition!
