The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 1069

Aria froze for over ten minutes before saying hoarsely, “Leo, prepare to activate Plan B!”

“Now?” Leo was stunned after hearing Aria.

“Yes.”

“Airight then! I’ll get ready now.”

Aria closed her eyes, and her tears rolled down her face. “Bruce, don’t worry. I won’t let you have any regrets.”

Bruce had been missing for eight days and was probably dead. She had to face the fact even if she didn’t want to

believe it.

At Carl Hospitals.

Another week has passed in the blink of an eye.

Joanna had been accompanying her daughter for rehabilitation training every day. Lilia had made a lot of progress.

Now she was able to stand up without help.

However, Lilia still needed more time to train her legs to jump and run like an ordinary person.

In the morning, Lilia had undergone dozens of rehabilitation exercises under the therapist’s guidance. She had also

practiced all kinds of muscle-strengthening training.

Watching Lilia sweating profusely from the hard training, Joanna felt heartbroken and relieved. “Lilia, you are great.

Take a break! Don’t be exhausted,” said Joanna.

Lilia’s face was red, and her head was sweating from the heat. “Mommy, I’m not tired. I still want to do another set

of leg compressions.”

The little girl wanted to stand up so badly and worked extra hard. She trained against the clock and did not dare to

slack.

Joanna’s eyes were filled with gentleness and heartache. “Baby, Mommy is concerned that you’ll be exhausted.

Don’t be in a hurry. Rehabilitation training isn’t something that can be done in a day or two. You have to be patient

and take it step by step. You can’t be too anxious. Otherwise, it will backfire.”

“Okay!” Lilia stopped when she heard Joanna’s words.

“Come on, drink some water!” Joanna wiped her daughter’s sweat with a disinfected white towel.

She handed the kettle over to Lilia to replenish her water.

Lilia took the pink water bottle and took a few sips.

The rehabilitation therapist stood at the side and praised Lilia in Gapringtonish. “Lilia, you have made great

progress and must keep going.”

The interpreter translated the rehabilitation trainer’s words.

Lilia smiled sweetly and said, “Thank you.”

Then the rehabilitation therapist talked about the upcoming training, as well as precautions and so on.

Joanna and Lilia listened attentively and were grateful for his efforts.

The rehabilitation therapist got off work and left at three in the afternoon.

The people of Gaprington were famous for not working overtime. They would get off work on time and didn’t work

overtime even though they were given extra money.

Therefore, Joanna could only accompany Lilia for training in the afternoon with the nurse’s aide.

“Baby, you’re hungry, aren’t you? Do you want to eat something?”

“Yes, I’m a little hungry.” Lilia was training too hard. Of course, she got hungry quickly.

“Eat something!”

“Okay.” Lilia let out a long sigh and lay on the ground, exhausted.

The servant quickly took out the prepared muscle-building food with high protein and fresh fruit.

Lilia rested for a while and began to eat the nutritious meal. The food was beneficial for her recovery

though it was difficult to swallow.

Half an hour later.

“Are you full?

“You have to eat more to have the strength to train.”

Lilia shook her head and said, “I’m full, Mommy. I want to start training.”

“You’ve only just eaten and take a break!” Joanna looked at her daughter with heartache.

Lilia raised her arm and gestured to her mommy to cheer her on. She said firmly, “No. I don’t need a break. I only

want to recover as soon as possible.

“I want to give Daddy a big surprise when he comes back. Mommy, what will Daddy’s expression be if he sees that I

can walk?”

Joanna’s heart was sour, sweet, and melancholy when she heard Lilia’s words. “Daddy… will go crazy with joy!”

Indeed. With Bruce’s personality, he would be so happy that he would fly. Then, he would give out gifts wantonly.

“I thought so, too.” Lilia became even more energetic.

“I have to train hard. I can train for another two hours.”

“Fine!”

Joanna and the nurse’s aide carefully helped Lilia to the rehabilitation training room.

Lilia had started strength training on her legs, and her calves had gotten thicker. However, this kind of thing could

not be rushed. She still had to take time to train.

However, she recovered very well. Lilia could walk a small circle when Joanna and the nurse’s aide held her arms.

The nurse’s aide accompanied Lilia for her training.

Joanna sat on a chair aside and watched. As she watched, her eyes could not help but turn red.

People just couldn’t be idle. Once they were, they couldn’t help but let their imagination run wild. They had been in

Gaprington for more than half a month.

There was still no news from Bruce. Joanna could not reach him, no matter what. She wanted to fly to Melta and be

by his side to see what he was doing.

In no man’s land.

An off-road vehicle was driving aimlessly on a desolated road.

In the car were two unkempt and unshaven men.

Darcy’s face was solemn, and his arm was heavily bandaged. “Carson, we haven’t been able to find Mr. Everett.

What should we do now?”

“Well, I don’t know what to do either.” Carson was also driving with a solemn expression.

They fought with more than ten patrolling special force soldiers when they picked up Bruce that day. In the end,

everyone in the patrol team died.

They also suffered heavy losses. Tom, Fry, and two bodyguards died, unfortunately.

Darcy was also seriously injured. He was shot twice. Fortunately, the bullets missed his vitals and hit him in the arm

and leg. They had been hiding everywhere these days. As they recuperated, they searched for Bruce.

Carson thought for a long time and said hesitantly, “If it doesn’t work, let’s look for Miss Bridges first. She will

definitely have news of Mr. Everett.”

“What a headache! Most importantly, we don’t know where Aria and the others are either.”

Carson and Darcy went to the camp to search for Bruce. However, it was already deserted except for the corpses

on the ground. /

It made them even more uneasy. They did not dare to stay there for long.

“Why don’t we leave the no man’s land first? We’ve finished all the food in the car, and there’s no drinking water.

The car has a few gas left. We have to leave first.”

A spare gas can was in their car, and they had also found a bucket of gasoline at the camp. But after driving for so

many days, the gas in the spare gas can was almost out.

If they didn’t return to the city to replenish their supplies, they would really be trapped to death in the no

man’s land.

Darcy pondered for a few seconds. That was all they could do. “Okay! Let’s go back to the city first!” They added all

the gas from the spare gas can to the tank and prepared to leave the no man’s land. They finally drove away from

the no man’s land ten hours later.

When Darcy’s phone had just regained its signal, it was bombarding madly like an out-of-control alarm clock.

Carson was speechless. “Oh, my god. Why do you have so many messages and missed calls?”

Darcy’s phone vibrated widely. All of them were texts and missed calls from Grace. In addition, there were Joanna’s

messages.

Beep, beep, beep.

Darcy called Bruce when his phone finally stopped ringing so wildly.
