Chapter 760

In the ward.

Joanna was still very annoyed and in a bad mood.

She could not make the decision of her own body. She asked to be discharged, but the doctors and servants did not

obey her.

Instead, they had to ask Bruce for instructions.

“I told you, I can make my own decisions.

“I’ve already broken up with Mr. Bruce. We don’t have any relationship now. So I don’t need his permission to leave

the hospital.” Joanna was a little exasperated.

The doctor and servants lowered their heads, and silence replaced their response.

If Mr. Everett did not relent, they would not dare to slack off for a second, much less let her leave the hospital.

Seeing this, Joanna was even angrier.

“Hey, did you hear me?”

“Mrs. Everett, don’t be so agitated. I just called Mr. Everett for instructions.

“Mr. Everett is also on the way. Please wait a moment!”

“What? What have you done?” Joanna’s eyes widened with anger

She really hated the feeling of being coerced.

Bruce had already rushed to the hospital and happened to hear Joanna getting angry.

“Click!” He pushed open the door.

Everyone turned around and saw that it was Bruce. Everyone looked as if they had met their savior.

“Mr. Everett is here!”

“Hello, Mr. Everett.”

Bruce frowned slightly and walked into the ward with his long legs.

They had not seen each other for more than half a month.

Their eyes met, which were filled with complicated emotions.

Bruce’s eyes were filled with helplessness and fatigue. “Joann, what’s wrong?” he asked.

Joanna calmed down and said irritably, “Bruce, I want to be discharged now.

“Will you stop interfering in my life? Will you stop restricting my freedom?”

Bruce said to the doctor and servants, “All of you, leave.”

“Oh, okay.”

Seeing this, Joanna immediately stopped them. “All of you, stay!”

“Let’s talk in front of everyone.”

“Get out!” Bruce frowned and repeated in a sinister voice.

How could the doctor and servants dare to disobey?

All of them hurriedly left the ward.

“Bruce, we’ve already broken up. I hope you won’t interfere in my life anymore.”

Bruce did not say anything, just looking at her.

Seeing that he was silent, Joanna became even angrier. Her tone was exceptionally unpleasant. “Bruce, do you

know? What I hate the most is your domineeringness and self-righteousness.

“You never consider other’s feelings when you do anything. You never care what others think. You’re really

annoying. Very, very annoying!”

Joanna was emotionally unstable. Coupled with the doctor restricting her from being discharged, she could only

vent all her anger on Bruce.

Bruce just looked at her and quietly waited for her to vent her emotions.

She actually said that he was very, very annoying.

This made him feel exceptionally uncomfortable. Every word she said was like a needle pricking his heart.

He had to admit that he was indeed arrogant at times.

He thought that she would feel happy and content if he helped her arrange the best life and solve all her difficulties.

He thought that his arrangement was the best decision.

However, he had overlooked one thing.

Joanna was an adult, not a pet. She would not feel content if he just gave her enough food and water and let a

group of people serve her.

But he knew she was emotionally unstable and in need of catharsis.

Therefore, he endured his heartache and silently listened to her hurtful words.

Joanna took a deep breath and tried her best to hide the tears in her eyes. She did not want him to see her cry, nor

did she want him to see her weakness.

The more one truly loved someone, the more one could not tolerate a small matter.

What she wanted was his unreserved love.

However, in the deepest part of his heart, he still left a little space for another woman.

This was unacceptable to Joanna. She would rather quit from now on than have any impurities in their love.

After a while, seeing that she had calmed down a little, Bruce said, “Are you done?

“If you’re unhappy with me, you can say it out loud.

“Or, what do you want me to do? You can tell me.”

When Joanna heard this, her heart ached and she fell silent.

“My actions just now were really pretentious and childish.

“Since we had already broken up, we had to maintain dignity.

“Why was I still angry with him? It made me look like I was not carefree enough,” she thought.

“Joann, I know you’re in a bad mood now. I also know you’re emotionally unstable, so let’s calm down for a while.

“When you’ve completely calmed down, I’ll…” Bruce said as he subconsciously reached out to hold her hand.

Joanna reflexively retracted her hand and looked at him coldly. “Mr. Everett, I want to be discharged now.

“I hope our paths will never cross again.”

When Bruce heard this, he let out a long sigh.

“Joann, you don’t have to deliberately keep a distance from me. I’ve said before that I won’t disturb your life again.

“But you’re my children’s mother. There are some things I can’t ignore.

“Your body is still very weak. You need to recuperate and have a good rest.

“When you’re fully recovered, I definitely won’t interfere with you.”

Joanna’s eyes darkened as she looked at him coldly.

He was good at coaxing people.

He was cloquent and could be said to be a PUA master.

If it was the first time interacting with him, one would definitely be moved by his words.

“Don’t look at me like that. I, Bruce, will keep my word.

“My only request for your is to recuperate and live a good life with your children. You don’t have to worry about

money, nor do you have to work hard for your life!

“I’ll give you everything you want, and I’ll give you enough money…”

Joanna interrupted him. “Bruce, I’ve told you before. I only want the children and the Haynes Group. I don’t want

anything else.”

Bruce sighed. His handsome and cold face approached her. “I don’t care if you want it or not. It has already been

to you.

“I handed the children over to you to raise. Naturally, I have to provide enough living expenses.

“They’re my children. I can’t watch them live in poverty. You’re the children’s mother and the woman who’s been

with me. I won’t let you live such a shabby life.”

When Joanna heard this, she felt even more disgusted.

She was not his pet, nor was she his mistress. She was on the same level as him and did not need his charity.

A woman working hard was not just for money.

Instead, it was to enrich her knowledge and broaden her horizons.

Similarly, it was also to realize her value in life.

But he did not understand this at all. He only knew how to give money.

“Bruce, stop!

“You’ve never known me. You’ve always imposed your own ideas on others.

“Have you ever respected me? Have you ever really known me?

“No! All you have is your imperious and selfish. All you have is deception and lies.”

When Bruce heard this, he felt even worse. There was an indescribable bitterness in his heart.

Perhaps he really didn’t know Joanna well enough.

“Joann, don’t be so agitated. Whatever you say, I… will try my best to respect your thoughts in the future…”

Joanna’s eyes darkened. She took a deep breath and said, “No need, it’s over.

“There’s nothing to say. I just hope that you won’t interfere in my life again.”

When Bruce heard this, he was stunned on the spot.

The pain in his heart was indescribable, and he felt his eyes were uncomfortable.

After a long while, Bruce looked up at the ceiling and tried his best to force the tears back into his

“No.”

eyes.

“This is the last time. In the future… I might never have the chance to hug you again.” Bruce felt a lump in his

throat, and his eyes were extremely red.

Seeing this, Joanna’s heart softened.

“Take it as a final farewell. I won’t disturb you anymore,” Bruce said in a hoarse voice.

He saw that she did not resist.

Bruce walked to the bed heavily and bent down to hug her.

Joanna’s body tensed up, and her eyes instantly moistened.

There was still a faint smell of marine cologne in his arms, and his heartbeat was still strong.

When she got close, she would feel like she was being protected.

His embrace was also the safest place, making one unable to help but sink into it.

“Joann, take care of the child and live well.”
