Chapter 995
Joanna pondered for a few seconds.
Her tone softened and her gaze also became gentler. “Bruce, can you not go to Melta?”
As she spoke, Joanna took the initiative to approach Bruce and hug his waist tightly.
Bruce gently stroked her hair and said gently, “No, this business is very important. I have to go personally.”
“What kind of business requires you to go personally? Moreover, you have to go for a long time?” Joanna expressed
her dissatisfaction and tightened her grip around Bruce’s waist.
He exuded a faint scent of oceanic cologne, blending with his natural body odor and warmth, making Joanna
involuntarily attached to him.
She could not leave him now, she admitted.
She loved him wholeheartedly.
If there was another crisis and setback in their relationship, she really would not be able to take it.
“What’s wrong? You don’t want me to leave?” Bruce’s voice was seductive and magnetic.
“I think it’s the same if you send someone else. Why do you have to go yourself?”
“Joanna, I promise you that this will be my last business trip. When I come back from Melta this time, I’ll never leave
you and the children again.
“I plan to sell all of Melta’s businesses and companies. Therefore, I have to go personally.”
Hearing this, Joanna looked up at him helplessly. “… Must you go?”
“Yes.” Bruce looked at her gloomily.
He did not want to go either.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, as long as he was part of the National Defense Bureau, he knew the responsibility he had to bear.
As a man, he could not only care about love.
Without a country, how could there be a family?
He wanted to stand his last watch before retiring.
Joanna thought for a few seconds and made a suggestion. “Then can I go with you?”
Bruce was stunned. “…No, you can’t go.”
“Why?”
“You have to stay at home and take care of the children and business. I can go alone. Don’t worry and wait for me
to come back.” Bruce could only comfort her.

‘When Joanna heard this, she had a bad feeling.
“Bruce, are you going to do something dangerous?” Joanna’s heart tightened.
She had known him for years.
But to be honest, she still did not know him well enough.
She had a feeling that he was still hiding a lot of things.
Bruce rolled his eyes. “It’s just a business meeting. How can it be dangerous?
“At most, the partners will send a few beautiful public relations representatives.”
Bruce teased her.
When discussing business, the partners would always think of ways to squeeze in a few beautiful and sexy public
relations representatives.
Those who liked to play with beautiful ladies would naturally accept it.

This was how business was. Sometimes, beautiful public relations representatives could play a huge role and
successfully facilitate business.
Of course, a picky person like Bruce would naturally not accept a woman who was pushed his way.
This was not the case in the past.
Before Joanna, he had spent money on women.
However, those women were all beauty pageant champions or top models.
And he was extravagant.
Even if it was a love affair, he would never treat the woman badly. Therefore, none of the women who had been
with him hated him. On the contrary, there were a few whose fates had changed greatly because of his help.
He felt that he could owe any kind of debt, but he must never owe debts related to women or gambling.
In this aspect, he was really very manly.
When Joanna heard this, her eyes widened even more. “What did you say? Say it again.”
Bruce stuck out his tongue and hugged her tightly. He smiled dotingly. “I’m joking with you. How would I dare?”
“What’s there to be afraid of? It’s not like you haven’t done it before.” Joanna was still brooding over his
past.
However, it was all in the past now, and she did not want to harp on it.
After all, who did not have a past?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBruce smiled helplessly. “Alright, don’t be angry anymore. I’ve already given you my money and become a pauper.
Why would any woman still follow me?
“If I go out and mess around, I’ll lose everything, won’t I? Besides, after all we’ve been through, do you still doubt
my feelings for you?”
Hearing this, Joanna finally felt better.
That was true. Controlling a man’s money bag was equivalent to controlling his lifeline.
Since he could take the initiative to give her all his money, it was enough to show his feelings and true
love for her.
“Bruce, let me ask you something. You have to tell me the truth.”
“Yes, ask away!”
“Are you going to Melta this time to meet Aria?”
“…” Bruce frowned when he heard that.
Of course, he would be seeing Aria during his trip to Melta this time.
However, he was going on a mission with Aria as part of the National Defense Bureau. It was inevitable for them to
meet.
“Why would you ask that?”
“I feel that you and that Aria are acting suspiciously. It must be a shameful secret. Tell me the truth. You and her…”
Before Joanna could finish asking, Bruce had already interrupted her. “Oh, my precious wife, why are you thinking
of this again?
“I’m serious. If I wanted anything to do with her, would I have waited until now?”
