The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna)

Chapter 208

Anyhow, they would still insist that Joanna was the one who seduced Bruce.

And no matter how much Joanna tried to clarify, they would not believe her.

Alright then!

She might as well admit it!

Not only was Joanna not repentant, but she was still so full of herself and even dared to retort her. Margaret was trembling with anger. “You, you, you’re really shameless!”

“Bruce, go, go and slap her face!”

Bruce scowled even more when he heard Margaret’s unreasonable demand. “Grandma!”

“Hurry up and do it!” Margaret was so furious that her lips would not stop shaking. She held her chest and panted.

“Joanna!” Bruce looked at Joanna helplessly. He was searching for her permission with his gaze.

He wanted to give her a light slap to appease his grandmother.

But Joanna looked back at him coldly without any signs of giving in.

“What did I just say to you? I told you not to talk back to Grandma!”

A dumbfounded Joanna snorted and rebuked Bruce, “Bruce, I’m not the Everett family’s punching bag. Nor am I obligated to listen to your instructions!”

Margaret urged again, “Slap her! Slap and throw this shameless woman out of the Everett family!”

“We cannot tolerate such a shameless woman in our house!”

“Who cares about staying in your family?

“If your grandson had not forcibly brought me here, I would not even step into your house!”

“You, get lost!”

“Don’t worry, I’ll gel lost!”

Bruce’s eyes darkened as he looked at Joanna gloomily. “Joanna, can’t you keep quiet?”

He then turned and looked at Margaret. “Grandma, calm down first! Don’t get so angry over this!”

“Joanna, I’ll send you back now!”

Joanna looked at them with hostility. “All of you, leave my room! At least let me change my clothes!”

When Margaret heard that, she almost exploded. “Someone! Quick! Throw this vixen out!”

Lilian and Emma quickly came forward and tried to pull Joanna out of bed.

“What are you doing?

“Margaret, you’re too unreasonable. We’re all ladies here. There is no need to use brute force!

“Do you think you can bully people just because you are old?”

When Margaret heard that, blood drained from her face, and she began to see red. She started

coughing violently.

“Grandma, Grandma!”

Margaret was exasperated. Her blood was boiling, and she could not catch her breath. All of a sudden,

she closed her eyes.

and fainted!

Bruce was scared out of his wits to see Margaret passing out. He hurried to her side to check on her.

“Grandma! Quick, doctor! Take a look at grandma!”

The doctor and caregivers put an oxygen mask on Margaret. Then, the doctor gave her an intracardiac

injection.

“Mrs. Everett is in critical condition. We have to send her to the hospital immediately.”

When Bruce heard that, he sprang to action and hurriedly pushed Margaret’s wheelchair out of the

door.

“Prepare the car and send Grandma to the hospital.”

“Yes!”

The group

of people immediately sent Margaret to the hospital!

Margaret was pushed into the emergency room as soon as she reached the hospital.

While Margaret received treatment in the emergency room, Bruce and Roxanne waited anxiously

outside.

As she looked at Bruce’s nervous expression, Roxanne comforted him gently, “Bruce, Grandma will

definitely be fine!”

Though Roxanne appeared compassionate on the surface, she was gloating on the inside as a sinister

thought sprouted in her mind. It was Joanna’s fault. Margaret got too agitated because of her and

fainted as a result.

What would happen if Margaret did not survive this?

If Margaret died because of Joanna, then Bruce would never forgive her.

As she thought of that, Roxanne made a wish in her heart. She hoped solemnly that the doctors would

not be able to save Margaret. Better yet, let Margaret die on the operating table.

Four hours later.

The door of the operating theater finally opened.

Bruce ran up to the doctor and asked anxiously, “How is Grandma?”

“Mr. Everett. Mrs. Everett was too agitated. The blood vessels in her brain burst, and she is in a

dangerous situation.”

“Then what should we do?” Bruce looked at the doctor in vexation.

“The surgery is over, and we have done all we can. It is now up to Mrs. Everett when she will wake

up!”

“Grandma, nothing must happen to you!” Roxanne pretended to cry.

Bruce closed his eyes in frustration. “Grandma, you have to hang in there!”

“Bruce, don’t blame yourself too much. It’s not your fault. It’s all Joanna’s fault. She is too overbearing!”

Bruce shut his eyes tight. He did not want to say another word to Roxanne!

“Doctor, what’s the probability of Grandma waking up?”

“Mrs. Everett is not out of danger yet. Whether she can wake up depends on how well her brain

functions to absorb the fluid.”

“Mr. Everett, you’d better be mentally prepared!”

When Bruce heard this, he took a deep breath. “You must do your best to save Grandma!”

“Mr. Everett, don’t worry. We’ll do our best!” The doctor turned around and left.

Bruce strolled along the hospital corridor till he was outside. He lighted a cigarette in exasperation

along the way.

Margaret was his closest kin and also one whom he respected the most.

Unfortunately, one was the woman he loved the most, and the other was his grandmother! He did not

want anything to happen to either of them.

Margaret had been sent to the hospital.

Joanna had also returned home from Reagan No. S Residence.

She was physically and mentally exhausted. Never would she want to go through those things again!

As Joanna reached her front door, her phone rang.

She took her phone out and saw that it was Michael.

“Hey!”

Miss Haynes!

“Michael, what’s up?”

Michael spoke excitedly into the phone. “That Brother Trumpet called!”

“Really?”

“Yes, they said that we can talk about the cooperation in detail! They would be happy to meet you in Greene Town when you are free to make a trip down!”

Joanna was overjoyed at the news. “That’s great. We can go over tomorrow!”

“Alright, I’ll talk to Brother Trumpet now!”

“Yes!”

Although Joanna had yet to recover from her illness, she did not want to stay in Greyport anymore!

She had to think of a way to get rid of the accumulated inventory in the factory as soon as possible.

After putting down the phone, Joanna opened the door to her apartment.

“Mommy, you’re back!”

“Yes, my precious baby!”

Lilia looked at Joanna’s face and said in her childish voice, “Mommy, why is your face so red?”

I’m fine. Mommy just has a fever!”

“Mummy does not want to infect you, so I won’t kiss you!”

“Oh, Mommy, did you go to see Daddy?”

Joanna was stunned.

Looking at her daughter’s expectant gaze, Joanna did not know what to say.

Lilia looked up at Joanna and asked innocently, “Didn’t Daddy say that he would let me see my brothers soon?”

Joanna subconsciously rubbed Lilia’s head, not knowing how to answer her!

The court session was in three days!

She hoped that the court would make a fair decision and award her custody of the children!

“Don’t worry, you will be able to see your brothers soon!”

“When is soon?”

“Very soon! You will be able to see your brothers in a few days!”

“Okie.”

The following day.

The sick Joanna brought Cora, Michael, and Nicholas to Greene City.

She must quickly do something about the inventory!
