Aria looked at Bruce reluctantly. “Bruce, when returning to the country?”

Bruce lowered his voice. “I’m preparing for the customs clearance now. I’ll return immediately after the procedures

are completed.”

He really did not want to stay there for a moment longer.

He saw the news for the past few days.

Everyone misunderstood that he and Aria were a couple. That really made him feel especially uneasy.

Things were often unexpected. It was clearly a small and simple matter, but after being embellished by the media,

it immediately became ambiguous.

Aria was still a little speechless. “Bruce, you’re going back with the virus just like that? I keep feeling that this

method isn’t very reliable!”

“Moreover, the virus is important. If it gets detected by the customs, all our efforts will be in vain!”

Bruce smiled calmly. “The most dangerous method is usually the most successful!”

“This is also the fastest and most effective way.”

“But I’m still a little worried…” Aria couldn’t help but worry

The method was indeed too risky.

He planned to swagger through international customs with the virus.

Well…

“Don’t worry, trust me.” Bruce gave her a confident look.

Aria frowned, not knowing what to say.

Especially since she didn’t want him to go back so early.

Once he returned to the country, she would probably never see him again.

She wanted

spend as many days with him as possible. Even if it was just one more day, it was extremely precious.

still have to be careful. I have a feeling that this method is not reliable. If the customs find out, not only will the virus

be confiscated, but you will also be detained by the police!”

“And it’s very likely that your identity will be exposed. The consequences are too serious. We can’t bear them.”

“Don’t worry! It won’t happen.” Bruce smiled confidently.

Then, he said sympathetically, “After the virus is sent back, you can go for surgery early.”

“You only have one life. We all have to cherish it. You’re still young. If you go for surgery as soon as possible, the

chances of recovery will be higher.”

“I will.” Aria’s expression darkened, and a trace of loneliness appeared on her facc.

“Then that’s settled. Just leave the virus to me.”

As Bruce spoke, he loaded the virus onto the freezer truck.

Naturally, he could not let others do that for him. He handled the entire process himself.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Aria subconsciously took a step forward. “Bruce…”

“What’s the matter?”

Aria pondered for a moment before hesitating. “I… Have you considered what I told you previously?”

Bruce was stunned and looked at her in confusion.

Aria’s face burned. She lowered her head pitifully and said sadly, “What I mean is, if the surgery fails, I might…

leave this world.”

“Before my surgery, I hope you can stay by my side.” After saying the last word, Aria’s tears rolled down her cheek.

Her thin shoulders also trembled with her sobs. She looked very vulnerable and helpless, and anyone could not help

but

pity her.

Bruce’s gaze shifted, and his expression revealed a complicated emotion.

To be honest, he didn’t want Aria to die. He hoped that she could live well. After all, she was so young and

outstanding.

However, even if he agreed to stay by her side, he would…

t be able to accompany her for long.

The illness was very dangerous. If the surgery failed, there ΠΟ

chance for her to survive.

Even if he stayed behind to accompany her, it would only be for a month or two at most.

As her friend, colleague, and ex-boyfriend, he should agree to her request.

But…

He was extremely uneasy.

Joanna was extremely sensitive and fragile. She could not tolerate a single imperfection, let alone betrayal.

If he stayed behind to accompany, Aria, there would be no going back between him and Joanna. The

misunderstanding between the two of them would probably not be reconciled even until death.”

Compared to losing Joanna, it was better for him not to interfere and let Aria fend for herself.

“Aria, I pity you!”

“As a friend, I really should be by your side.”

“But… I have to go back and discuss it with my lover.”

“I’ll have my lover come with me to take care of you.”

When Aria heard that, her heart ached and her eyes revealed deep disappointment.

In Bruce’s heart, he really only treated her as an ordinary friend.

That was unacceptable to her.

“Bruce, what I mean is that I hope you can stay as my…” Aria swallowed the word “husband.”

He didn’t even love her anymore.

It was too much for her to make such a request. Moreover, it would not come true at all.

“Forget it. Pretend I didn’t say anything.” Aria sobbed, and her body trembled even more.

“I wish you happiness.”

“Aria, take care of yourself too,” Bruce said in a deep voice.

“By the way, when

return to the country, I will talk to Mr. Thompson personally.”

When Aria heard that, her eyes suddenly widened. “Why?”

Exhaustion and numb

appeared in Bruce’s eyes. “I’ve decided that after completing this mission, I must leave the

organization.”

“Bruce, you have to consider it carefully! You’ve already come this far. Don’t give up halfway.”

“I’ve thought it through. I’m really tired.”

Every man had a dream of saving the world when they were young. No one wanted to be an ordinary person.

Of course, he was no exception.

He was chosen by Mr. Thompson into the top secret organization of the country, the National Defense Bureau, at a

young

age.

At one point, he was very excited and felt he was about to embark on the path of maintaining world peace.

But after more than ten years, he was really tired.

His dreams had also changed.

“Mr. Thompson said that he’s going to grant you the highest honor title. In the future, when he retires, you’ll be his

successor and take his place.”

“If you withdraw now, all your efforts will be in vain…”

Mr. Thompson’s position was the highest position in the National Defense Bureau.

He directly obeys the highest executor of the country.

He also enjoys countless privileges and glory.

In the future, it will be officially recorded in the annals. The identity was far more glorious than a billion-dollar

corporation

owner.

Of course, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.

The heavy responsibility that they shouldered was not something that ordinary people could bear.

Bruce shook his head numbly..

Not to mention the highest position, even if he was asked to be the emperor, he did not want to be.

He just wanted to return to a peaceful life.

He just wanted to go home and accompany his wife and children.

“Bruce, I really feel sorry for you. You should have better achievements and not stop here.”

“You still have countless possibilities in the future. There will be a more glorious path…”

Bruce shook his head sadly. “Everyone has their own ambitions. You don’t have to persuade me anymore.”

“I’ve made up my mind. No one can change my mind.”

When Aria heard that, she pouted and said sadly and regretfully, “Then let’s leave it at that. I can’t persuade you

either.”

As she spoke, Aria’s vision turned black again.

She staggered and fell straight forward.

Seeing that, Bruce hurriedly supported her. “Aria, what’s wrong?”

Aria’s nose began to bleed as she collapsed to the ground.

“I’m fine…” Aria weakly wiped the blood from her nose.

“I’ll take you to the hospital now. Your illness can’t be delayed any longer.” Bruce was shocked and could only send

her to the hospital.

Half an hour later, Bruce took her to a local hospital.

Aria had been treated in this hospital before, so the doctor knew her condition very well.

In the infirmary, the doctor explained in Antlenish Aria’s condition. “Miss Bridges needs to undergo surgery as soon

as possible. We can only confirm what the tumor in the brain is after the surgery.”

“There are two possibilities now. One is benign, and the other is malignant.”

“If it’s benign, there’s a 50% chance of recovery. If it’s malignant, it might…”

When Bruce heard that, he frowned. “Doctor, if it’s malignant, how long can she last?”

The doctor shrugged and said regretfully, “If it’s malignant, she might not last a month or even a week.”

Bruce inhaled a breath of cold air.

“Can you arrange an operation for her as soon as possible?”

“Are you a family member?”

“I’m her friend!”

When the doctor heard that, he shook his head. “Then you can’t sign the surgery form on her behalf. It has to be

or herself.”
