The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna)

Chapter 717 Even though she really didn’t want to be hospitalized, after hearing the doctor's grave concerns, Joanna could only reluctantly agree to stay in the hospital.

“Go take care of the hospitalization procedures!” “Okay, Mr. Everett.” Soon after, the hospitalization procedures were completed.

Joanna was assigned to the special VIP ward.

There were almost no patients on this floor. Ordinary patients would not be arranged to come to this floor.

As they entered the VIP floor, they noticed a few nurses and doctors escorting a patient out of the elevator. The patient was also arranged on this floor.

An assistant in a suit approached Marcus and said, “Mr. Yanice, don’t worry. Mr. Derick’s life has been saved.

“He has been transferred to a normal ward!” On the other end of the phone, Marcus appeared to be explaining something to the person on the call.

The assistant nodded submissively while on the phone. “Yes, yes, | understand.” Marlowe had spent over ten days in the intensive care unit, but today, he was finally transferred to a regular ward.

However, they had to amputate his right leg from the knee. The large tendons at his neck were cut off. Although they managed to reattach it, his neck was now crooked to the left.

“Uh, uh, uh...” Marlowe lay there, whimpering in pain and discomfort.

What a narrow path! Joanna and Bruce happened to run into Marlowe.

Given that he was the eldest son of the Yanice family, and was one of the wealthiest young guys in Greyport, it was no surprise he was staying in the VIP ward.

“Hmm...” When Marlowe saw Bruce, his previously dispirited and weak expression instantly brightened up.

He became excited and struggled to sit up straight.

But Marlowe's injuries were still very severe. Even if he tried with all his strength, he could only manage to squirm.

“Mr. Derick, please don’t get too agitated. You haven't fully recovered yet,” the assistant quickly comforted him.

“Mmm...” Marlowe tried to mumble something, but he was unable to speak clearly.

Despite his inability to speak, Marlowe's gaze was piercing and filled with resentment, resembling that of a venomous snake.

Bruce coldly glanced at Marlowe, and with a shrug, his expression seemed to convey the message, “That's right, my people did it.” Even the police had no way to investigate such a matter. Just like how Marlowe had hired someone to seek revenge on Bruce, the murderer had already fled overseas, making it nearly impossible to conduct a thorough investigation.

Indeed, everyone was well aware of the situation, but despite their suspicions, they couldn't find any concrete evidence.

“Miss Haynes, this is your ward.” The nurse opened the door and gestured with her right hand.

Joanna and Bruce entered the ward.

“I heard that Marlowe's leg was amputated. He might be paralyzed for the rest of his life,” Joanna said with a casual sigh.

Marlowe was also a well-known celebrity in Greyport, and his amputation had become a prominent news story covered extensively by the media.

Bruce sneered. “Who cares? He deserves it!" Joanna glanced at Bruce..

“Why is he so cold-blooded?” She thought.” Even a stranger would feel sorry for the person who went through this. But Bruce mocked him.

How cold-blooded! Despite seeing the sympathy in Joanna's eyes, Bruce's disdain for Marlowe seemed to intensify. He remarked, “Honey, you don’t have to sympathize with someone like him.

“This kind of scum doesn’t deserve any sympathy.” Joanna listened and did not say anything else.

She did not sympathize with Marlowe.

She lamented how terrifying the murderer must have been to slash Marlowe multiple times and then drive over his legs. The cruelty of the act was deeply unsettling and horrifying to her.

Joanna even suspected that the criminals who attacked Marlowe and those who attacked Bruce might be the same group of people.

“Forget it, let's not care about him.” “Miss Haynes, I'm going to administer a pregnancy stabilizer injection now,” the nurse informed Joanna.

“Okay.” The nurse swiftly began to prepare the medicine and inserted the needle into Joanna's arm.

“You'd better rest in bed during this period of time. Don’t walk around.” “I got it.” “Then I'll go out first. If you need anything, please press the server.” “Okay, okay.” The nurse bowed politely and left the ward, maintaining a professional and reassuring smile on her lips.

After the nurses and intensive caregivers left, Joanna could not help but sigh deeply.

In the past few days, Joanna had been feeling uneasy and had a lingering premonition that something significant was about to happen. H Joanna's sixth sense had always been remarkably accurate. Whenever something bad was about to happen, she would experience various signs like her eyelids twitching, her hair trembling, or feeling inexplicably depressed.

This was a sign that something bad was about to happen.

“Honey, why are you looking so sad?” “I'm worried about the children. I'll be hospitalized for another week.” Bruce smiled. “It's okay. If you miss the children, | can get someone to bring them over.” When Joanna heard that, she immediately shook her head in disagreement. “Forget it! Let's not take the children to the hospital.

It's not a good place to visit.” “Hehe, then I'll accompany you in the hospital.” As Bruce spoke, he gently pressed his big head against Joanna's stomach.

On this side...

the Marlowe was sent to another ward in the same floor.

Although their wards were on the same floor, there was a considerable distance between them, as there were only two patients on this floor.
