Joanna's phone rang. The bodyguard was handing it over to her! “Miss Haynes, your phone is ringing. Do you want to answer it?” Joanna frowned and asked, “Please check. Who is calling me!” “Oh, it's Mr. Derick calling.” When Bruce heard this, he sighed. “You're injured now. It's best not to answer it. You wouldn’t want to scare the children.” “Pass me the phone.” Joanna reached out her right hand and took the phone.

Joanna switched the video call to a voice call and answered the call. “Hello, baby...” On the other end of the line, Davian’s worried voice sounded, “Mommy, why haven't you been answering your phone?” “I've been calling you a lot these past few days. Why didn’t you answer? Do you know how worried my siblings and | are?” When Joanna heard this, she felt even more upset. “I'm sorry, baby. Mommy had a small problem to handle and couldn't answer your call.” “Mommy, what happened to you?” Davian asked even more worriedly.
“...It's just a small issue, but it’s all settled now.” “Oh, did you find Daddy?” “How’s Daddy doing now?” When Joanna heard this, she unconsciously glanced at Bruce.
When Bruce heard that his son was concerned about him, the corners of his eyes could not help but curl up.
The brat was finally not useless anymore. He was now worrying about his father.
“Baby, don’t worry. I've already found Daddy.” “When are you guys coming back? We miss you so much.” Joanna took a deep breath and replied gently, “Soon. We've already booked a plane back home. We'll be back in about three days. Five days at most.” They could not return home immediately if they booked a private plane.

When Davian heard this, he was a little disappointed. “Huh? It will take that long?” “That's right!” Before Davian could finish, Irvin had already snatched the phone away impatiently. “Mommy, it’s Irvin.” Then, Lilia’s crisp voice sounded, “Mommy, it’s Lilia. Why didn’t you turn on your video?” “We miss you so much. We want to video call you.” Joanna's heart tightened. “Mommy can't take a video call now.” “Mommy, is Daddy coming back with you?” Lilia asked impatiently.
When Bruce heard this, he took the phone and said in a gentle voice, “Yes, Lilia, baby. Daddy and Mommy will come back together.” When Lilia heard her father’s voice, she was instantly overjoyed. “Whoa, it's Daddy!” “Devin, Daddy’s on the phone. Daddy, where are you? Why didn’t you call us? You have no idea how worried we are about you...” After saying that, Lilia couldn’t help but cry.
Hearing Lilia’s voice, Bruce's eyes could not help but sting again. He could not help but want to cry again.
He could not wait to return home and hug his precious little princess.
“It's all Daddy's fault. I'll make it up to you when | come back.” “Do you miss Daddy? Daddy misses you very much, Lilia.” “Of course | do! Daddy, come back quickly with Mommy. My brothers also miss you guys very much.” “Hmph, you're Daddy's favorite. He only misses you and doesn’t miss the two of us at all.” “No, | miss you too, Devin.” “That's right. Daddy has a favorite; he doesn’t miss us...” Irvin strongly expressed his dissatisfaction.
