The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna)

Chapter 225 Lilia, her voice filled with innocence, asked, “Mommy, when will she be born?” Joanna heard it and instinctively glanced at Bruce! She suspected that this damn Bruce had deliberately planted the idea in the children’s minds! Otherwise, how could they know so much at such a young age? Bruce's handsome and noble face remained devoid of expression! But an overwhelming wave of tenderness surged within him! These kids were his. And soon, Joanna would give birth to another one.

The six of them would live together.

Suddenly, he realized that this could be the ordinary happiness he had been missing! “Mommy, is there really going to be a little sister in your belly?” “Uh...” Joanna still had her eyes fixed on Bruce.

“Why are you looking at me? The child is asking you a question!” Joanna rolled her eyes and shifted her gaze to the kids. “Maybe! She won't be born for a few more months!” “Wow, when the time comes, I'll bake cookies for her.” “If you have a little sister, will you stop favoring me?” Lilia asked one of her brothers.

“No way! | will love you just the same!” Irvin lay on the bed and asked thoughtfully, “Mommy, are you tired? I'll give you a massage!” Davian hurriedly climbed onto the bed. “I'll give Mommy a massage too!” Irvin was holding onto Joanna's thigh while the other was embracing Joanna's arm, displaying their sincere and devoted affection! It had been a while since they had shown such affection towards their mommy. Finally, they could do it now! Bruce watched from the side and couldn't help feeling a tinge of jealousy! These kids didn’t seem to have much of a bond with him.

No wonder it was said that fathers and sons were enemies from past lives! Fortunately..ilia was closer to him! “Alright, Mommy's tired. It's time for you guys to go back!” “It hasn't even been an hour! Let us stay with Mommy a little longer!” Bruce's face turned cold, and he spoke sternly, “It's been over 40 minutes already, which is practically an hour! Hurry up and go home!” He couldn't tolerate the sons being so clingy to Joanna.

“Bruce, can't you let them stay a little longer?” Joanna couldn't help feeling annoyed! She couldn't understand why he was so harsh with their two sons.

“You're not feeling well right now. The doctor told you to rest! They making a fuss will disturb your rest!” “No, they're well-behaved!” Bruce snorted and commented sourly, “Yeah, the kids are quite obedient! “But you, as an adult, aren’t obedient at all. Can't find a single child who listens!” Joanna felt a pang in her chest. She was an adult and didn’t want to be treated like this! “Bruce, | really don't like you acting this way!” Bruce sneered. “I'm not like money. | don’t need everyone to like me!” From childhood to adulthood, he always stole the spotlight! He was always the one giving orders to others! Over time, this habit became ingrained and couldn’t be changed.

Joanna's head began to throb, and she had no desire to continue arguing with him.

Well, he was quite the troublemaker, and no one could out-argue him.

Sensing Joanna's growing anger, Bruce softened his tone a little. “Just cooperate, and you'll get to see the kids every day!” Davian and Irvin pouted. “Mommy, we'll go back first!” During this period, Davian and Irvin had also come to understand the importance of Bruce! He was like the king of the pack, and the little cubs would learn their lesson if they misbehaved.

“Alright, behave!” Joanna kissed each child's cheek reluctantly as she watched them leave.

Once the children were gone, Bruce took a seat by the bedside, casually loosening his tic.

Joanna was taken aback. “What are you doing?” “Time to sleep! I'm exhausted, let's lie down!” Bruce stretched out on the bed with an air of ownership.

Joanna felt frustrated. “Bruce, can we have a proper conversation?” “Go on!” Bruce didn’t even bother to open his eyes.

“I... I really don’t want this child!” Upon hearing this, Bruce's gaze turned icy. “This is your debt to me!” “You've angered me so much that you owe me another child. An eye for an eye!” Joanna was left speechless.

Bruce grabbed her arm, impatiently stating, “If | tell you to give birth, you better do that!” “This child is mine, so take good care of it! Otherwise, you'll regret it!” Joanna felt even more frustrated by his threats! “Alright, let's drop it!” Joanna lay down in anger.

“Take care of your pregnancy and stop overthinking!” Joanna paused for a moment, asking indignantly, “If this child is born, will you take the child away from me again?” Bruce rolled his eyes but gave no response! He hadn’t made up his mind yet! Regardless, the child had to be born first! Then can you give me the phone? | need to make a call!” Bruce replied coldly, “Phones emit radiation, and it's not good for the child!” “You're incredibly annoying. | can’t contact the outside world. Everyone thinks I've disappeared!” “Don’t worry, I've delegated all the company matters to the vice president! I've also informed Mr. Roger and Mr. Paul about your situation!” “But...” Bruce interrupted her. “No “buts!” “The most important thing for you now is to protect this child! I'll take on all the losses of your company!” Bruce said it, but deep down, he felt even more contemptuous! Joanna's factory in Mossbourne had only received a modest investment of a few tens of millions! Even if it made money, it wouldn't be much.

But if she gave birth to this child, he could afford not only a small factory but even a publicly traded company.

In an instant, Joanna had been trapped here for a whole week! There was no way for her to reach the outside world, and no one could find her either! Jaydon had absolutely no clue what was going on! “Madam, it's mealtime The servants brought in another round of nourishing food.

“I want to go outside!” “Mr. Everett wants you to stay in bed and rest!” Joanna shot an irritated look at the servant. “I've been cooped up in this house for an entire week. I'm starting to lose it! “If 1 lie down again, I'll go crazy!” “But...” The servants didn’t dare to make the decision.

Chapter 225 “I won't go far, just a little stroll on the lawn!” Then I'll go check with Mr. Everett!” After a short while, the servants returned after getting instructions.

“Madam, he said you can go out to the lawn for a while!” Joanna listened, put on her shoes, and walked out of the room! Finally, after a whole week, she stepped foot outside this room! Although there were servants trailing behind, they could finally breathe in the fresh air! Joanna stood on the lawn, her mind buzzing with thoughts! Given Bruce's personality, it was nearly impossible for her to leave! If she wanted to escape from this place, her chances were even slimmer! For now, all she could do was play along! When Bruce let his guard down, she would find a way to contact the outside world! The next day, Bruce came with the three kids to visit her again! While Bruce stepped out to make a phone call, Joanna said, “Nancy, I'm craving some grapes. Go wash them for me!” “Sure thing!” “Ms. Chain, can you heat up a glass of milk for me? Add some extra sugar!” “Yes, Madam.” Joanna devised a plan to send all the servants away! “Davian, come here!” Davian obediently walked over. “Mommy!” “When you come tomorrow, can you bring Mommy a phone?” Davian tilted his head, studying Joanna! “Mommy, why do you need a phone?” “Don’t ask too many questions. Mommy really needs one right now! But we can't let Daddy find out, and we can't let anyone else know either! “It's our little secret!” “Yes, Mommy, don’t worry!” “Good boy!” Just then, Bruce approached.

“What secret conversation are you two having?” “I didn’t say anything!” “Alright, it's about time for today. Mommy needs to rest!” Joanna exchanged glances with Davian! Davian had a gloomy expression and flashed Joanna an okay sign! “Bye, darlings!” “Bye, Mommy!” “Feeling better now?” “It's alright!” “What do you need? Just let Ms. Chain and the others know!” “I understand!” “Then I'm leaving too!” Bruce said.

“Okay,” Joanna replied with a cold tone.

When Bruce heard that, he felt an overwhelming unease.

A whole week had passed, yet her icy attitude toward him hadn't thawed even a bit! She had truly killed his grandmother, and he was still furious! Well, now she was the one mad at him.
