The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna)

Chapter 1089 “It's okay. I'm not tired. | just don’t want to see you suffer,” Bruce said gently and considerately.

Joanna didn’t say anything. She just lay quietly on his lap.

Bruce did not say anything else and gently and patiently massaged her temples.

His large hands were soft and gentle, and the strength of his massage was just right. It was especially comfortable.

Less than ten minutes later, Joanna fell asleep unknowingly.

Similarly, just as she fell asleep, she began to dream of sstrange dreams again.

In the dream, she had been walking on a dark path. As she walked, the figure of the monster suddenly appeared in front of her.

“Ah...” Joanna's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly woke up from her dream.

Seeing this, Bruce quickly patted her shoulder to comfort her. “Joann, what's wrong? Did you have nightmare again?” Joanna panted a few times, still feeling a lingering fear. “I'm fine. It's okay. Why did | fall asleep just now?” “It's okay. Maybe you're too sleepy. You can sleep if you want.” Joanna insisted on sitting straight. Her face was covered in cold sweat.

She suddenly had a feeling that the monster in her dream was definitely related to Bruce.

It was said that there was telepathy between the people who loved each other the most. This was a kind of chemistry that even science could not explain.

Therefore, she had this dream over and over again. This was also a form of telepathy.

“Where are we?” “We should be there soon.” “Alright.” Joanna opened the window again and looked at the scenery outside.

Half an hour later, the car arrived at the villa.

“We're here! It's tto get off.” “Uh-huh.” In front of them was a manor villa. It occupied a large area and looked very luxurious.

Joanna had been here before, so she was not that unfamiliar with it.

The butler and the servants in Melta had already received the call and were waiting at the door to welcthem.

“Welchome, Mr. and Mrs. Everett.” The butler greeted them in Antlenish.

Bruce and Joanna got out of the car, and the others followed.

“Everyone has worked hard today. Let's take a break!” “Joann, don’t split rooms tonight.” The group followed the butler into the villa.

“Mr. and Mrs. Everett, your bedroom is ready.” “Got it.” Joanna and Bruce made their way to the master bedroom.

“It's really a tiring trip!” Bruce subconsciously stretched and took off his suit.

Joanna went to pour a glass of water and pretended to take a few sips. Then, she carried another glass of water to Bruce's side.

“Are you thirsty? Have swater!” Joanna smiled and handed him a glass of water.

Bruce did not suspect anything. He took the water and drank it.

“Thank you, honey.” Seeing that he had finished all the water, Joanna smiled reassuringly. “You're welcome.” Five minutes later, Bruce began to yawn non-stop, looking extremely sleepy.

“Honey, what's wrong?” Joanna asked.

“I'm fine. Maybe I'm tired and want to sleep...” As he spoke, Bruce could not help but lie on the bed. He didn’t even finish taking off his shoes.

Joanna pretended to be concerned and asked, “Do you have a cold?” “Maybe a little.” “Then quickly lie down and sleep for a while!” Joanna said.

“Uh-huh. I'm going to sleep first, then,” Bruce muttered weakly. He let out a big yawn and closed his heavy eyelids.

Joanna drugged him with tranquilizer pills in the water he had just drunk.

He would be very sleepy after drinking the water.

Soon, Bruce fell into a deep sleep.

“Bruce. Hey, Bruce,” Joanna called out tentatively.

Bruce slept very soundly and did not react at all. Seeing this, Joanna relaxed a little.

She took off his shoes and tucked him in.

Although this Bruce in front of her was fake, he had never harbored any ill intentions toward her.

Therefore, she could not bear to hurt him.

After knocking Bruce out, Joanna walked out of the bedroom.

Darcy, Carson, Benny, and the others were all guarding downstairs.

“Darcy, Carson, listen up. When that Leo comes later, you guys must take him down. You can't let him leave this place.” “Got it, Mrs. Everett.” The few of them looked solemn.

“Alright, go and prepare now.” “Roger that!” Joanna had called Aria when she was at the airport. It was already two in the afternoon. Leo should arrive in an hour.

At 3:30 p.m., Leo drove to the villa.

Joanna personally waited at the door. When she saw him coming, she immediately went forward to welchim. “Mr. Leo, it's been a long journey!” Facing Joanna, Leo still felt a little guilty. “It's nothing. It's only right forto cand take a look at Bruce.” “Con! Let's go in!” Joanna smiled gently.

Leo got out of the car without any suspicion and followed Joanna into the house.

“How's Bruce?” Leo asked.

Joanna deliberately frowned. “He has a cold and just taken smedicine. He's sleeping very soundly now.

“Oh, don’t worry. I'll go over and take a look at him now.” Leo felt a little scared.

Although Bruce's clone had been perfected as much as possible, a clone was still a clone. No matter how similar it was to a real person, there would still be sproblems.

Right now, all he could do was try his best not to let the clone show any flaws.

This was his final promise to Bruce. And it was also Bruce's last wish.

Bruce didn’t want Joanna to be sad and heartbroken, and he didn’t want her and their children to lose their support.

24 10.

With this clone around, even if a fake Bruce, those cunning ones in Everett Group and their business opponents would not dare to touch Joanna and their children easily.

As for business matters, with Joanna's intelligence, she could completely handle them. Bruce's only worry was that Joanna and the children would not be able to accept his death and would completely collapse. If it was him, he would also be in so much pain that he would not be able to live if Joanna died. Therefore, Bruce had planned this a long tago. If something bad happened to him, he would have the clone go hin his place and accompany Joanna and their children.

“Cin!” “Thank you.” “Where is Bruce?” “He's sleeping in the bedroom. It's okay. You've just driven for so long. Take a rest first!” “Butler, pour Mr. Leo a cup of coffee.” “Mr. Leo, please take scoffee.” eyes.

Leo was indeed a little thirsty after driving all the way. He picked up the coffee and prepared to drink it. Joanna, Darcy, and the others looked at him with bright eyes. A hint of cold light flashed across their Leo's heart skipped a beat. He suddenly smelled a faint smell of tranquilizer medicine in the coffee. Although the smell was very light and mixed with the aroma of the coffee, identifying these drugs was naturally child's play to him. After all, he was Aria’s right-hand man.

There was medicine in the coffee. He could not drink it.

When Leo realized that there was a problem with the coffee, he broke out in a cold sweat.

However, he quickly said without batting an eyelid, “Oh, right! | have to call Aria back. When | came, she specially instructedto call her when | get here.” As he spoke, Leo casually placed the coffee cup on the table.

Joanna frowned, but she couldn't say anything.

Leo picked up the phone and pretended to call Aria.

“Hello, Aria!” On the other end of the line, Aria asked, “Are you there yet?” “Uh-huh. I just got here. It hasn't even been ‘five minutes’, and | called you back immediately,” Leo said calmly.

When Aria heard this, her heart skipped a beat.

The two words “five minutes” were a code between their agents. It also meant asking for help.

If the other party went somewhere and was kidnapped by bad people, as long as he mentioned “five minutes” on the phone, it meant that he was in danger and needed reinforcements.

“Alright, | got it.” Aria felt uneasy and hung up.

“Mr. Leo, have scoffee.” Joanna politely handed the coffee cup to Leo.

Leo did not dare to take it. “Well, I'll take a look at Bruce first!” Joanna choked at her words and subconsciously glanced at Darcy.

Darcy gave her a look, meaning to attack directly. However, Joanna still shook her head slightly, indicating for Darcy to stop moving.

She had seen Aria’s skills before.

And the people around Aria must be quite skilled as well.

If Darcy, Carson, and the others attacked together, they wouldn't fail, but they should try to avoid fights.

After all, Joanna had only brought seven people this time. There would still be a lot of times when she had to use them in the following days.

“Alright then! Cwith me!” Joanna tried her best to suppress the anger in her heart and brought Leo to Bruce's room.
