The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna)

Chapter 207 “Grandma, calm down. If you want to see her, | will get her now!” Margaret's expression changed. “No need. I'll go there and see her personally!” “Grandma!” The butler pushed Margaret's wheelchair and walked towards the room aggressively! Bruce had no choice but to run back to his room. He had to reach there before Margaret.

He could not persuade his grandmother, so his only chance now was Joanna.

Bruce hurried to his room! Joanna, Grandma is here!” Joanna looked at Bruce with a sullen expression. “I missed the part where that's my problem?” “Grandma has a heart condition and cannot be agitated. But she might say something nasty when she sees you later.” “So?” Joanna narrowed her eyes.

Bruce frowned and said, “You know what Grandma's temper is like. No matter what Grandma says to you later, please don’t be impertinent and talk back to her.

“Grandma is old. You just need to listen to her!” “Hmph!” Joanna rolled her eyes impudently.

Some people loved to exploit their seniority and advocate their morals on the youngsters.

Bruce let out another deep sigh. “Did you hear what | said?” Joanna turned her head away, ignoring him.

She had already put up with and given in to Margaret a lot of times.

There was probably no one in the world who was conceited enough to be able to distort the facts while sounding upright and righteous.

But Margaret was that kind of person! Joanna was still bitter over Margaret forcibly keeping Davian and Irvin with her.

What right did the Everett family have to bully her like this? She did not owe the Everett family anything! The butler pushed Margaret into the room while Bruce and Joanna were talking.

Margaret took a look around the room the moment she entered.

Joanna was still lying on the bed, with her slender and fair arms exposed outside the blanket.

There were even a few bruises on her neck.

It was easy to imagine what a rough night Bruce and Joanna had the previous night.

You are pretty impressive!” Margaret said sarcastically.

When Roxanne saw the disheveled Joanna still ungroomed and lying in bed, she gritted her teeth and asked, “Joanna, Grandma is here. How can you still lie down?” Joanna's eyes darkened, but she did not reply.

Margaret took a deep breath and said furiously. “You are really something. Do | have to pay my respects to you now?” Joanna glanced up at Margaret with contempt in her eyes. “Margaret, | know you dislike me! Just say what you want to say! Anyway, it is your mouth and your freedom to say anything!” Margaret fumed with fury upon hearing what Joanna said! She was a respected figure in Greyport. How could she tolerate others being disdainful of her? “You! You're really shameless!” “Bruce is already engaged to Roxy. Yet you still harass him. Can you be any more shameless?” “Especially when Bruce is supposed to be your brother-in-law. How can siblings argue over the same man?” Margaret pointed her finger at Joanna and berated her.

Joanna became incensed when she heard what Margaret said.

Contrary to what other people think, Bruce and her were not in that kind of relationship.

It was Bruce who was pestering her! Instead of reprimanding Bruce, everyone lambasted her! Bruce felt that Margaret's words were too harsh. He frowned and said, “Grandma, Joanna is not that kind of girl! “I'm the one who has been contacting her.” Margaret rolled her cold eyes and pointed at Bruce's face angrily. “You don’t have to speak up for her. You are just as shameful as her!” “You reap what you sow. If she really is an honorable and virtuous woman, then no one will be able to take advantage of her.” “Is she now playing hard to get? What a pretentious woman! She is repulsive!” Margaret's words sent a quiver through Joanna's body. She clenched her fists tightly.

Roxanne pretended to s 0 b and sniffed. She looked at Joanna pitifully. “Joanna, | know that you were once married to Bruce. | know how difficult it must be to move on!” “But I love Bruce very much. Neither | nor my baby can do without him! “I will give you anything else! But | have feelings for Bruce, and | cannot give him to you!” In that few words, Roxanne had stigmatized Joanna as immoral and nefarious.

The most terrifying thing in the world was stigmatization. Once stigmatized, it would almost be impossible to redeem oneself.

There was no way of defending oneself or refuting the claims. The more one tried to justify one’s actions, the more public wrath it would incur.

That was why stigmatization was the simplest yet most noxious aggression.

0 Chapter 207 Joanna heaved a deep sigh. She then started to chuckle uncontrollably.

Margaret and Roxanne were really trying their best to condemn her.

Joanna turned and looked at Bruce! He stood at the side, looking grim and a little uptight.

If it was someone else criticizing Joanna, he would definitely stand up and protect her without hesitation! But in the face of his grandmother, Bruce was helpless. He could not even speak up for Joanna.

After all, his grandmother had a weak heart. If something were to happen to her because she was agitated, it would be too late for regrets.

Joanna took a deep breath. “Say whatever you want. | don’t want to explain anymore!” “Tell me, what did you do last night?” Joanna sneered and looked straight at Margaret in the eye. She declared point-blankly, “I did everything that | can do.” “And hear this. Not just yesterday. | will do it with Bruce tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, as well!” Joanna wanted to mess with their heads!
