Chapter 762 Aria had been paying attention to Greyport's news though she had returned to Antlen.
In the past 20 days or so.
Bruce had transferred so many assets to Joanna. The news had attracted attention overseas, so Aria naturally knew about it.
At the same time, Aria was exceptionally sour and disappointed.
The fact that a man was willing to transfer so much money to a woman was enough to prove that he was not being hypocritical toward her.
It seemed that Aria was overthinking.
Bruce loved his wife very much, and Aria had long been reduced to a passerby in his heart.
“Bruce, do we really not have a chance in this life? “But... I just can’t get over it. | do want to really have you for once...” After Aria muttered to herself, tears streamed down her face.
It was not that she hadn't been courted by any outstanding men over the years.
However, Aria was stubbornly waiting for Bruce. She kept her purest body and her first kiss for him.
Now that Aria had cancer, she didn’t have a long time to live. She didn’t want to talk about etiquette and honor anymore. She just wanted to fall in love seriously at the end of her life.
Even if it was only for a few days, it could be considered to settle her lifetime regret.
The next day.
At the Avery Women’s Hospital.
“Miss Haynes, the discharge procedures have been completed. You can be discharged today.” “Okay!” Joanna insisted on being discharged.
She was still weak but could get out of bed and slowly walk.
Therefore, she did not want to stay here any longer.
Miranda instructed the servants to pack their things.
Joanna carried Devin and sat quietly on the sofa, waiting.
At the nurses’ station.
The servants and nurses had been getting along for many days and had become familiar with each other.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNow that Joanna was discharged from the hospital, the nurses could not help but gossip, “Hey, Miss Haynes is discharged today.
Will Mr. Everett come to pick her up?” A servant shook her head and whispered, “I don’t know. | heard that they've been breaking up recently!” “Huh? Really?” “Yes. Miss Haynes did not allow us to call her Mrs. Everett anymore these days.” Another servant added, “Well, It was nothing more than a flirtation between a couple. Which couple doesn't quarrel? Which couple doesn’t have conflicts? “When a young couple fights, they will make up soon. In less than three days, they will reconcile. Previously, Mr. Everett and Miss Haynes were in an uproar and lived a cat and dog life.
“Then what happened? They got back together.” “However, it's different this time...” “What's the difference? Just wait and see. They will surely get back together in less than two months! “Mr. Everett isn't a fool. If he didn't plan to spend the rest of his life with Miss Haynes, how could he easily transfer several billion dollars of his assets to her?” “That's true!” “Let's don't care about it so much. They will not cut off our wages whether or not they break up.”.
“We're leaving.” “Goodbye.” The nurses and servants waved goodbye.
At the Sherane Bay Villa.
They finally returned to Sherane Bay Villa when it was almost noon.
Joanna stayed at the hospital for 36 days. She did not want to stay in the hospital anymore.
So she insisted on being discharged today.
Although Joanna did not want to return to the Sherane Bay Villa, she had nowhere better to go for a while.
Many of her belongings were still here, and her children were used to living here.
So she had to come back here.
Besides.
Bruce had transferred this mansion to her name. Now, it belonged to her.
After Joanna got out of the car, she walked into the house with the help of the servants.
Before they could go to the room on the second floor.
Out of the blue, Bruce walked down from the second floor with a cold and stern expression.
Halfway down, Bruce happened to see Joanna.
His footsteps subconsciously slowed down, and a deep and complicated expression appeared on his handsome face.
“Joann, you're discharged...” Bruce pursed his lips and greeted Joanna stiffly.
He was going to fly to Antlen today.
Therefore, he had specially come back to get his luggage, documents, and passport.
Of course! Bruce had more than a dozen passports as a top agent. All of which were authentic and legal.
Sometimes, he would use a passport with another identity when he could not use his own identity.
The organization would also cooperate with him and provide him with multiple identities to facilitate his missions.
After seeing Bruce, Joanna's face turned chilly as she replied coldly, “I'm here to pack my things!” Then Joanna walked around him and wanted to walk toward her room.
Bruce frowned and stretched out his arm to stop her. “Joann...” “Get out of my way. You said you wouldn't disturb my life again,” said Joanna.
When Bruce heard Joanna, he looked at her helplessly and said, “Please don't go. | will go, okay? “Stay here with the children. Don’t worry. | won’t set my feet in here again without your permission.
“The Sherane Bay Villa will be your and the children’s home. | won't come back without your permission.” Bruce looked at Joanna deeply and sadly after saying so.
Joanna also looked up and stared at Bruce coldly.
Five seconds later.
Joanna's eyelids sank as she glanced at the suitcase in his hand.
From the looks of it, Bruce was preparing to go on a business trip.
He told her before that he was going to Antlen for a business trip.
She had thought that he was really on a business trip.
But from the looks of it, he could not wait to fly to Antlen to reunite with his first love.
“I'm leaving. Take care of yourself.” Bruce looked down at his watch, It was almost 1 p.m.
The flight was at 2 p.m. He had to rush to the airport immediately.
Joanna did not stop Bruce and only retreated and made way for him when she heard Bruce’s words.
Bruce did not dare to delay any longer and hurriedly went downstairs.
When he passed by the pram, he stopped and kissed his son's little face.
After Bruce left, Joanna suddenly felt an inexplicable emptiness, as if someone had dug a hole in her heart with a spoon.
The emptiness made people feel especially lost. They felt like they had lost everything.
Women were such strange creatures.
Joanna could not forgive Bruce when she was angry. But Bruce had to coax her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf it was in the past, he would surely coax Joanna and beg for her forgiveness. He would definitely not be as indifferent as he was now.
Moreover, he had not been to the hospital during this period. He did not even pick Joanna up when she was discharged today.
It seemed that he had given up during this period.
Well, it was true...
His first love had come back to find him. Of course, he couldn't wait to return to his first love.
Joanna had been thinking about something for the past few days.
Why was Bruce so good to Joanna? It wasn’t until Joanna saw Aria that she seemed to know the reason.
It was probably because Joanna looked like Aria and had always been Aria’s substitute.
Thinking of it, Joanna felt so much pain in her heart that she could not breathe.
She staggered back to her room and quickly swallowed a few tablets of tranquilizers. After a while, she gradually regained her composure.
Joanna was used to being hurt, and the protective wall in her heart was much higher than the average person's. After all, she had walked through the darkest nights.
Now, what else could she not bear? “Joann... I'll put the things back first!” “Yes. Put everything away. Have you prepared a nursery for Devin?” “Don’t worry! Gael has prepared it in advance.” Joanna didn’t say anything else and lay down on the bed.
Which was just as well.
In the future, she could do whatever she wanted. She had to get rid of him completely in her life.
At the airport.
Darcy glanced at the time and said, “Mr. Everett, the plane is about to take off. You can board now...” “Got it!” “We are ready for the auction the day after tomorrow. This is the information for the auction,” Darcy said as he handed a data card to Bruce.
“Mmm!” Bruce took six assistants and four bodyguards on the trip.
The group of eleven people flew to Lundi together.
Of course! Bruce was also a famous tycoon internationally. His trip would naturally attract some people’s attention.
Therefore, he came to Lundi in the name of participating in the Star of the Century auction.
The king of the bid in this auction was a mummy of an Ekitian pharaoh, as well as some expensive porcelains, ancient paintings, and so on.
There were many auction items that had been from the country to abroad.
In any case, he attended such a large-scale auction every year and bid back the treasure, which had been lost overseas.
He donated the antiques with research significance to the national museum for free.
Some of them were in his private collection.
This time, he was bidding for the king of the bid, an Ekitian mummy from the 17th century.
