The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 683

Bruce had been unconscious for a day and a night.

Joanna also guarded him for a day and a night.

Miranda had also been by her side the entire time. She was even more worried about Joanna. “Joann, hurry up and

rest! How can you endure it if you continue like this?”

Joanna’s eyes were bloodshot. She said sadly, “I’m fine. Don’t worry about me…”

“Joann, even if you don’t care about your health, you have to take care of the child in your belly. Hurry up and rest.

You can’t continue like this.

“The child is already seven months old. You must not affect the fetus. Be good and go to sleep for a while. Mr.

Everett is guarded by doctors and special nurses. He will be fine.”

“I see.” Joanna rubbed her belly and stood up with difficulty. She lay down on the nurse’s bed.

She had not slept for a day and a night, and her body was extremely exhausted.

As soon as she lay down, she fell asleep in less than five minutes.

It was probably because she was very nervous that she started having nightmares again when she fell asleep.

Then, she dreamed of Bruce being murdered and covered in blood.

“Uh… Bruce…”

Joanna was in a nightmare. Her entire body trembled non-stop, but she could not wake up no matter what.

Fortunately, Miranda was by her side. Sensing that she was possessed, Miranda quickly went forward to wake her

up. “Joann, what’s wrong? Did you have a nightmare? Joann, wake up quickly.”

In a nightmare, Joanna had a clear mind, but her limbs were in a deep sleep. No matter how hard she tried, she

couldn’t wake

1.

Miranda shouted a few times before Joanna woke up from her nightmare.

“Ah-”

“Joann, are you possessed? Quickly sit up and drink a glass of water to sober up.”

Hospitals usually had too much negative energy. People with weak bodies would easily be affected by nightmares if

they slept in the hospital.

This was especially true for those who often had nightmares.

Joanna rested for two minutes before the fatigue in her body and the fear in her nightmares gradually dissipated.

Miranda, how long have I been asleep?”

Miranda handed her a glass of warm water and said gently, “You’ve only slept for more than an hour.

“Sleep for a while more. I’ll stay here and watch over you. Sleep in peace.”

Joanna shook her head in a daze. Then, she lifted the blanket and got out of bed. “I’m not sleeping anymore. It’s

better for me to guard him.”

“Joann, sleep a little longer…”

Joanna ignored Miranda and insisted on going to Bruce’s ward.

In the ward.

Another few hours passed.

“Ugh… Ouch…” Bruce gradually regained consciousness and opened his eyes in a daze.

This surgery miraculously connected his nerves again.

The consciousness in his brain was slowly recovering.

The memories seemed to be regained and surged into his mind like a tide.

“Ouch… My head hurts…”

Bruce subconsciously raised his hand to touch his aching head. At the same time, he slowly opened his eyes and

saw the ceiling.

“Where am I? Why does my head hurt so much?” Bruce muttered in his heart.

When he moved his hand, he realized that Joanna was lying beside his pillow. It seemed that she was asleep.

He moved slightly and Joanna woke up.

Joanna opened her eyes in a daze and subconsciously looked at Bruce’s face.

With one look, she was no longer sleepy.

Unexpectedly, Bruce woke up! And his eyes were so energetic and bright.

Joanna was instantly shocked. Her entire body was as excited as if her blood was boiling. She held his hand tightly

and said. incoherently, “Bruce, you’re awake?”

“You’re finally awake? You’re finally awake…” As she spoke, tears streamed down Joanna’s face.

Her crying, laughing, and excited expression made Bruce’s heart ache.

Bruce was stunned.

The events of the past few months began to appear in his mind again.

The events of the past few months were still vivid in his mind. It was as if he was dreaming.

Now he had finally woken up from his dream.

Looking at Joanna’s familiar and haggard face, Bruce subconsciously reached out to touch her face.

However, he had just woken up and his body was still very weak. He raised his hand for a long time, but it was too

heavy to lift.

Sensing his uncomfortable expression, Joanna hurriedly covered his hand over her heart, her eyes filled with

endless tenderness. “How are you? Does your head hurt?”

Bruce was stunned and couldn’t say a word for a long time. He just looked at her face in a daze.

At this moment, she was really gentle, as if she was protecting a baby who was less than a month old.

“You must have a headache, right? I’ll call the doctor now. Wait for me.”

After saying this, Joanna hurriedly stood up. She held her waist clumsily and protected her big belly as she anxiously

walked

out.

She was already more than seven months pregnant, but her back was still very delicate. Other than her belly, there

was almost no meat on her other parts.

Seeing how nervous Joanna was, Bruce wanted to say something but hesitated.

He thought back to this period of time.

It seemed that she was exceptionally gentle and concerned about him. She took care of him meticulously and no

longer glared at him.

This was something he did not even dare to think about in the past.

Joanna had already walked out of the ward. “Doctor, come and take a look at him. He’s awake.”

Three minutes later, Mr. Clayton and two other doctors rushed to the ward to take a look.

After a round of inspection, the doctors were also surprised that Bruce woke up earlier than they expected.

“Hmm, I didn’t expect Mr. Everett to wake up so quickly. This is really a medical miracle.”

When Joanna heard this, she still looked nervous. “Then will he faint again in the future? Will there be other

dangers?”

Mr. Clayton checked Bruce’s eyelids and said affirmatively, “Since Mr. Everett has woken up, his life will no longer be

in danger.

“It’s just that his brain has been severely injured. At the moment, we’re not sure if there will be any sequelae.”

When Joanna heard this, she could not help but cry tears of joy. She finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Since Bruce’s life was not in danger, everything was not too bad. “It’s okay. It’s okay. As long as we can save his life,

everything will be fine.”

“Yes, yes. We’ll give Mr. Everett another full checkup later. He has to recover well during this period of time and not

stimulate his brain.”

“Got it, Doctor!”

Spon, the doctor finished the examination.

They took Bruce’s blood for testing and then took a CT scan of his brain.

The doctors left.

“You bastard, you really scared me to death. Thank God you’re finally awake. Do you know how afraid I was that

you wouldn’t wake up? Boohoo…”

As Joanna spoke, she could not help but bury her head in his arms. She held his arm tightly and cried bitterly.

Bruce looked like he was enjoying it. He rolled his eyes slightly.

He swallowed the words he wanted to say.

It seemed like… it was good to be a fool.

Before he became stupid, Joanna had never said such things to him. She would not be so devoted to him.
