The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna)

Chapter 211 Upon hearing that, Ingrid let out an exasperated sigh and muttered, “Goodness, what a disaster! The poor old man is so fragile, how can he handle all this stress? “Now what? This is a major catastrophe! What on earth should we do? “I've been saying it all along, Joanna is a walking curse. Anyone who gets entangled with her is bound to be unlucky, Ingrid continued her complaints.

Bruce was already overwhelmed with turmoil. Ingrid’s words only added fuel to his frustration, pushing him closer to his breaking point.

“If there's nothing else, you all can go back now!” Unable to contain himself, Shaun burst out, “How can we just leave it at that? She’s your mother. We are close, aren't we? Who can possibly remain calm in the face of such a colossal mess? “I hope Mrs. Everett can pull through this ordeal. If she can’t, well, I'll definitely give that ungrateful daughter a piece of my, mind!” Shaun vented his frustration.

Shaun and Ingrid learned from Roxanne that Joanna was the one who had brought Margaret down.

Consequently, Shaun was singularly focused on blaming Joanna for everything.

Bruce's expression became grimmer upon hearing this. His countenance turned cold and devoid of any warmth.

Sensing the tension, Roxanne swiftly intervened, “Dad, Mom, let's refrain from further discussion. Bruce is already upset.” Ingrid rolled her eyes and remarked, “Bruce, I'm not scolding you, but this is a painful lesson. Never provoke that jinx Joanna again!” Bruce rolled his eyes in disgust, questioning her right to lecture him.

Who did she think she was? “Mom, enough with the chatter! You and Dad should split. There's not much you can do here,” Roxanne said, signaling with quick glance.

Times had changed, no doubt! Bruce had long stopped taking the Haynes family members seriously! Ingrid trying to assert her authority here would only infuriate him.

“Alright then! “We'll take off. You stay with Bruce!” “Got it!” “Roxy, you're pregnant now! Take care of yourself, don’t overexert!” “Yes, yes, | understand!” Ingrid and Shaun continued their banter for a little while longer.

Seeing Bruce completely ignoring them, his expression growing more unpleasant by the second, the two of them didn’t dare linger and hastily departed.

Chapter 211 After they left, Bruce stood up and made his way outside the hospital.

Roxanne hurriedly caught up. “Where are you headed, Bruce?” “I need to make a call first!” Bruce said and walked away without a second glance.

After a while, Bruce stepped outside the hospital and pulled out his phone..

Beep beep beep.

Unable to hold back any longer, he finally dialed Joanna's number.

Joanna was savoring a lavish seafood feast with her employees, thoroughly enjoying the spread before her.

As the phone rang, she retrieved it from her pocket, and her heart skipped a beat when she saw Bruce’s name on the caller 1. ID.

Initially, she had no intention of answering, but the knowledge that Margaret was hospitalized due to her own anger compelled her to reluctantly pick up the call.

“Hey,” she greeted with a hint of reluctance.

Bruce fell into silence.

In a chilly tone, Joanna prodded, “Come on, speak up! If you're not going to say anything, I'm hanging up!” Bruce took a deep breath and whispered, “Where are you now?” “I'm in Porash.” Bruce snorted.

Margaret was seriously ill, and instead of showing concern, she chose to go to work.

This sent Bruce into a fit of anger.

After a few seconds of silence, Joanna couldn't resist asking, “Um... How is Mrs. Everett doing?” “Because of you, she is still in the intensive care unit, and her condition is critical!” Joanna furrowed her brow upon hearing this news.

When anger took hold, emotions could erupt.

Margaret had insulted her badly, so she naturally couldnt take it. She had just retorted without thinking twice.

But now that she thought about it, she regretted it.

Margaret was an elderly woman with health issues.

Even if she endured a few insults, she could have simply listened. There was no need to engage in an argument with an elderly person! Now that Margaret was in the hospital, Joanna feli unsettled.

didn’t want things to turn out this way either.” Bruce sneered, “Well, are you happy now?” Taking a deep breath, Joanna replied, “What is there to be happy about? “Bruce, | never intended to disrespect your grandmother! | was in a terrible mood that day, and now | realize it was uncalled for! “I'm truly sorry!” Joanna spoke sincerely.

Bruce's anger eased slightly upon hearing this. “How are you? You're seriously ill, so why are you running around?” “I'm fine, don’t worry about me! Take good care of her. I'll visit her at the hospital tomorrow!” Joanna felt a pang of guilt.

Regardless of Margaret's insults, she was still her son's great-grandmother.

She should go and personally apologize! Bruce felt somewhat relieved upon hearing Joanna's apology.

At the staircase, when Roxanne heard Bruce calling Joanna, her face contorted with anger.

Joanna had nearly driven Margaret to her grave, yet Bruce not only harbored no anger towards her, but he also showed concern! Roxanne took a deep breath, her eyes widened, and her fingers clenched into a tight fist.

“Joanna, you damn bitch, you've really outdone yourself! You managed to make Bruce forgive you! “Bruce, | will never let you be with Joanna...” she thought to herself.

Bruce was still on the phone.

Roxanne pretended everything was normal and quickly returned to the ward's door, obediently waiting outside.

After wrapping up his call, Bruce coincidentally found himself face to face with the doctor, who had come for a check-up.

“Hey, Doc, how's my grandma doing today?” Bruce asked with concern.

“The accumulation of brain fluid in her isn’t too severe. Judging by her progress, she should wake up within a week!” the doctor replied.

A sense of relief washed over Bruce. “Really? Please make sure to take good care of her, Doc!” “Don’t worry, we'll do everything in our power!” the doctor reassured him.

“If we can completely absorb the fluid in her brain, she'll undoubtedly wake up! So, try not to fret too much,” the doctor added.

“That's a relief to hear, that's a relief!” Bruce finally breathed out a sigh of relief.

Roxanne seethed with anger upon hearing the news.

She had anticipated Bruce harboring a deep hatred toward Joanna because of this situation! Litle did he know, Margaret had once again survived! Chapter If she fully recovered, it seemed Bruce and Joanna would become entangled once more! That's unfair! This old woman is incredibly fortunate. Despite being in the ICU, she managed to pull through,” Roxanne thought, glancing at Margaret's bed.

Roxanne burned with rage. She longed to rip out Margaret's ventilator and send her straight to hell.

Though she despised Margaret with every fiber of her being, Roxanne was a master of deception. She put on a facade of joy.

“That's fantastic! If she wakes up, it'll be better than anything!” “God, if you're listening. I'm willing to sacrifice ten years of my own life for her awakening!” Roxanne said, clasping her hands together and praying with genuine fervor.

Observing this, Bruce couldn't help but believe in the sincerity of Roxanne’s prayers for Margaret's recovery. His heart softened a little.
