“Bruce…”
“Hurry up,” Bruce said.
Roxanne had no choice but to get up and leave the restaurant with him.
After getting back into the car, Bruce remained silent. He turned on the ignition as soon as Roxanne
fastened her seatbelt.
Just as the car left the car park, they happened to see a silver Bentley coming toward them.
Bruce felt a sudden shock upon seeing the car that he suspected belonged to Joanna.
He glanced at the license plate. It was indeed Joanna’s car.
He reckoned that Joanna also came to this place to eat.
Thinking of this, Bruce looked displeased, suspecting that Joanna must have made an appointment
with a man. It was rare for someone to come to such a high–end restaurant alone to eat.
“Roxy, I have something to do now, so I can’t send you back, Bruce said, stepping on the brake
abruptly and stopping the car on the roadside. “Please take a taxi by yourself.”
Roxanne was jolted by the sudden stop of the car due to inertia. She looked at Bruce in shock and
said, “Bruce…”
Bruce looked a little uncomfortable. “Um, why don’t I call Andy and ask him to pick you up?” he said.
“Bruce, why are you in such a hurry?” Roxanne said. “What are you going to do?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBruce said, “I suddenly remember something very important that needs to be dealt with right away.
“Get out of the car first!”
Upon hearing that, Roxanne was so angry that her face turned red.
It had never occurred to her that Bruce had treated her coldly to such an extent.
“Bruce, what’s more urgent than the matter between us?” Roxanne said angrily, stiffening her body and
refusing to get out of the car. “I’m not getting out of the car!”
Bruce frowned and made up his mind. “Drive back by yourself then!” he said.
As he spoke, Bruce threw the car key to Roxanne. Then, he got out of the car and left without looking
back.
“Bruce, Bruce…”
Roxanne hurriedly got out of the car. Bruce was already walking into the distance.
Over here, Joanna had just parked her car, opened the door, and got out of the car.
She had just arranged to have dinner with Jaydon.
Today’s incident was quite a scene, so she naturally wanted to treat him to a meal and apologize to
him.
However, she never expected Bruce to be here too.
After getting out of the car, Joanna took out her phone and involuntarily called Jaydon. “Hello, Jay,” she
said. “Are you here?”
Jaydon was almost there. “Yes,” he said. “Tll be there in five minutes.”

“I’ll go in first then,” Joanna said. “It’s the same seat as last timel
“Alright!” Jaydon said.
As Joanna hung up the phone, locked the car doors, and prepared to head toward the restaurant, a tall
and sturdy figure suddenly blocked her way.
Joanna was so frightened that she stopped in her tracks. When she looked up, she was even more
frightened. She took a step
back.
“Bruce, why are you here?” Joanna asked.
Bruce frowned and looked inside her car. There was no one else.
“Whom did you make a dinner appointment with?” Bruce asked.
Joanna was at a loss for words. Her eyes widened.
“Aren’t you being too nosy?” Joanna said. “Can’t I even ask someone out for a meal?”
Bruce’s handsome face was extremely displeased. “Is the person you’re meeting a man or a woman?”
he asked. “Is it Jaydon?”
Joanna suddenly felt anxious. She took a deep breath and looked at Bruce irritably. “Mr. Everett, you’re
really strange!” she said. “Does it have anything to do with you whom I’m meeting for a meal?”
“Of course it does!” Bruce said. “Are you meeting a man or a woman?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJoanna was so angry that she could not help but curse. “You’re crazy!” she said.
“Stop right there!” Bruce said.
“Bruce, don’t bother me like this!” Joanna said. “You’re allowed to have dinner with someone else, but
I’m not allowed to have dinner with someone else?”
Bruce grabbed her arm and pulled her back into his arms. He said domineeringly, “Yes. If you want to
eat, you can only ask
me out!”
When Joanna heard this, she was even more exasperated. She tried her best to break free from his
grip. “I don’t want to talk to you anymore,” she said. “I am not your slave, let alone your girlfriend. You
have no right to demand this from me!”
Bruce held her arm tightly and said angrily, “It seems that you ignored everything I told you this
morning!”
“Hmph, Bruce, I hate you,” Joanna said. “I really hate you!” Joanna struggled desperately to break free
from his grasp and ran toward the exit of the car park.
“Stop right there!” Bruce said. He ran a few steps forward and stopped her again.
Joanna was so angry that she let out a puff of air and said, “I’m not eating, okay? Can I just go home
now?” After saying that, Joanna turned around angrily and walked toward the car.
Bruce followed behind her and sneered. “Sure, I’ll go home with you!” he said.
“Are you crazy?” Joanna said. “Who are you to me? Why do you want to go home with me?”
Bruce sneered and said, “Send me home then since I’m not driving now.”
“Can’t you call your assistant or your driver to come pick you up?” Joanna said.
