The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 1022

No matter how Patricia tried to dodge him, Devin happily stuck to her like a shadow.

Joanna looked at the two little ones helplessly.

This brat had always been a sweetheart since he was young.

Joanna didn’t know what kind of romantic he would be when Devin grew up.

In the blink of an eye, it was already ten o’clock at night.

Joanna was sleepy and wanted to sleep, but she still insisted on waiting for Bruce’s call.

Unfortunately, the call from Bruce never came. Looking at the time, it should be past ten in the morning on his end.

Joanna could not help but call him.

“The number you have dialed is currently unavailable. Please try again later…

Joanna’s heart tightened. “What’s going on? Why isn’t Bruce answering his phone today? Why has he not been

returning my calls? Joanna thought.

Joanna thought for a while and decided to call Darcy. She wanted to ask him what Bruce was doing.

Although she would not suspect Bruce was fooling around outside, Joanna still felt a little

uneasy.

“The number you have dialed is unavailable.”

Joanna was stunned.

Darcy’s phone had also been turned off?

As Bruce’s personal bodyguard, Darcy’s phone had to be on at all times.

Now, Darcy’s phone was switched off too. What was going on?

Joanna instantly lost all drowsiness, and her thoughts began to run wild. She began calling Carson and the others.

Unfortunately, there was no exception.

There was no response from them besides the unavailable‘ message.

What are these people doing? Why can’t I get through to their phones?”

[Hello, Bruce, what are you doing? Why aren’t you answering your phone?] Joarma sent Bruce a voice message

through Messenger.

Did something happen to you? Call me back as soon as you see the message.]

Joanna left Bruce a few more voice messages.

Could something have happened to him?

not It can’t be. I hope it’s just The more Joanna thought about it, the more

anna. Even if Joanna

The two of them had been through so many hardships before finally coming to fruition. They still had trust in each

other.

It was impossible for Bruce to be so insensitive.

“Damn. What is he doing? Why isn’t he answering his phone?” Joanna didn’t feel like

sleeping at all. She got off the bed and put on her slippers.

Joanna paced restlessly from the balcony to the bedroom. Every few minutes, she would.

call Bruce.

Joanna did not sleep for the entire night.

She called Bruce dozens of times, but she still couldn’t get through.

It was past five in the morning.

When Joanna heard the phone ring, she shuddered and quickly picked it up. “Hello…

On the other end of the line, Bruce finally said, “Hello, wife.”

“Bruce, what are you doing? Why aren’t you answering your phone? I’ve called you so many times, but why aren’t

you answering?” Joanna was angry and anxious. She asked a series of questions, and tears couldn’t help but fall.

Joanna was worried sick for the entire night.

She hated it when Bruce didn’t answer his phone.

Bruce’s apologetic voice came from the other end of the phone. “I’m sorry, honey. I’m in a very remote city now.

There’s no signal here, so I didn’t receive the call.”

When Joanna heard this, her heart tightened. “Where are you now?”

“Well, I’m in the western state of Tanzda.”

When Joanna heard this, she became more furious and worried. “Tanzda? Where is that? Why haven’t I heard of it

before? What are you doing now?”

“I found an energy mine here. So, I’m here to take a look and see if anyone has developed

1. it.

When Joanna heard this, her eyes

Bruce must be talking nonsense!

widened.

Bruce had been talking about retiring. But now, he was going to develop an energy mine? Had he been truthful at

all?

“Why are you looking for an energy mine? You have to be careful and not run around, okay? The security is so bad

in Melta now. Don’t go to remote places..”

Bruce chuckled and set about to soothe her tenderly. “Don’t worry! Nothing will happen.” “No, turn on the video. I

want to see where you are,” Joanna asked worriedly.

Brite chuckled. “Don’t worry, honey. I’m in no man’s land. Even if I want to mess around, it’s impossible.

“No man’s land?” Joanna’s heart sank when she heard that.

From the sound of it, it sounded like Bruce was courting death.

Bruce; can you stop risking your life? Come back quickly and stop running into danger.”

Ewe can find the source of this energy mine, we can be settled once and for all. Bruce made up a random excuse

to lie to Joanna

Bruce could not tell her that

District 17 was Melta’s most mysterious research base. There was an army guarding it.

No matter who approached District 17, once they were caught, they would be shot.

If Bruce told her the truth, she would definitely be worried. Joanna would probably cry to death out of fright.

“Bruce, didn’t you promise to retire after you came back from your business trip?

“It sounds very difficult for you to develop that energy mine now. Can you stop making trouble and live peacefully

for a few days?”

Before Joanna could finish, Bruce pretended that the signal was bad. “Hello… Hello…”

“Hello? Honey? The signal here is not that good. I’ll call you when I get to the city. I’ll hang up first.”

“Bruce? Hey.. Joanna shouted anxiously.

On the other end of the line, Bruce had already hung up..

Joanna called again, but the phone was turned off.

“This bastard is really giving me a headache. What is he doing?” Joanna’s heart was in turmoil. She was so anxious

that she was about to faint.

Why was Bruce looking for an energy mine for no reason?

Bruce clearly said he was going to the capital of Melta and a few developed cities to deal with business. Why would

he suddenly go to no man’s land

I’ve got to hand it to him. He’s always so unreasonable.” Joanna was angry and anxious. Her eyes were swollen and

red.

Joanna hadn’t slept the entire night, but she wasn’t sleepy at all. If she could, she would fly over to him immediately

and see what Bruce was doing.

In Melta, no man’s land, after hanging up, a trace of gloominess and melancholy appeared on Bruce’s face.

[Honey, I may not be able to call you often recently. Don’t worry about me. I’ll call you back immediately when

there’s a signal.] Bruce typed a message and sent it to Joanna.

No matter what, Bruce didn’t want Joanna to worry about him.

After he sent the message, a woman’s voice sounded.

“Bruce, what should we do now?” Aria looked at Bruce worriedly.
