The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna)

Chapter 876 Bruce checked the time. It was 5:30 pm.

The plane would take off in an hour.

However, the child was crying so hard now that Bruce couldn't bear to leave, “Hurry up and call Dr. Down!” “I've already urged him. Dr. Down said that he’s on his way.” Bruce frowned as he carried his son and paced back and forth in the house.

“My good son, don't cry. Daddy begs you not to cry.” Devin cried so hard that his face turned purple, and he kept spitting out milk.

Bruce finally understood how difficult it was to take care of a child.

Fifteen minutes later.

Dr. Down rushed over with the first aid kit.

“Mr. Everett...” “Hurry up and see why Devin is crying so badly,” Bruce urged anxiously.

Dr. Down did not dare to be negligent. He quickly disinfected his hands and examined Devin.

After a round of inspection, Dr. Down said with a serious expression, “Little Devin should have an acute hernia. He needs to be sent to the hospital for treatment immediately.

“I've already given Devin a reset massage, but | still have to send him to the hospital for surgery.” When Bruce heard this, he gasped. “It’s that serious?” “Yes!” Bruce's frown deepened. He looked at the time again. It was already past six.

Bruce's flight was at 7.

He probably wouldn't make it in time now.

“Arrange for a car tonight and send Devin to the hospital.” “Mr. Everett, what about the plane?” “Cancel it now. We have to wait until Devin is done with the surgery no matter what.” “Will do.” Bruce did not dare to delay for a moment. He carried his son and got into the car. The driver stepped on the accelerator and rushed to the hospital.

When they arrived at the hospital, a few pediatric attending physicians were already waiting.

Dr. Down had called in advance and briefly explained the situation of Devin.

Therefore, the doctors quickly prepared emergency treatment.

“Beep, beep, beep.” Bruce called Joanna.

Joanna picked up the call and asked gently, “Hello, are you on the one?” Bruce pondered for a few seconds. “Honey, | might not be able to go for the time being.” Joanna's heart skipped a beat. “What's wrong? What happened again?” Bruce opened his mouth. He wanted to tell Joanna that their After some thought, Bruce was afraid that Joanna would worry.

was.

After all, Joanna still had to take care of Lilia. If she knew that Devin was also sick, she would be even more worried.

“Oh, it's nothing much. It's just that there was an emergency at the company.

“I might have to be a few days late.” Bruce made up a random excuse, not daring to tell Joanna the truth.

“Oh, it's fine. Go back to work!” “But I'm worried about you and Lilia.” Joanna sighed softly and comforted Bruce. “It's okay. We'll try not to go out as much as possible. There are security guards in the hotel. And we also have Darcy and Tatiana. It should be fine.” Bruce hesitated.

Now, he wanted to fly to Gaprington immediately.

However, Bruce was worried about his son’s sudden serious illness.

“Alright then! Be careful. If there's nothing important, don’t leave the hotel.

“After I'm done with my work for the next few days, I'll come immediately to accompany you.” “Yes, | understand. Don’t worry!” “Alright, that's it then. Love you, Honey,” Bruce said in a deep voice.

“I love you too.” “Be good!” Bruce kissed the phone.

Joanna didn’t say anything else and hung up.

Lilia listened from the side and asked in disappointment, “Mommy, is Daddy not coming?” Joanna nodded gently and comforted her daughter gently. “Yes, something happened at the company again. Daddy will be busy for a few days.” When Lilia heard this, she pouted and sighed. “Ah, | miss Daddy and my brothers so much.” “Be good. Daddy is busy with work.

“Your brothers will be on summer break in a few days. They might come over together.” “Really? That's great.” “Of course it's true.” Lilia smiled. “Mommy, it's so boring in the hotel. Can we go out for a walk?” After all, a hotel was not as good as a home.

There was a garden, a horse farm, and a small playground at home. Every day, Lilia could breathe fresh air. When she opened the window, she could see the sea and mountains.

Now that Lilia was staying in the hotel every day, she had no access to the natural environment at all.

The little girl was suffocating.

Joanna frowned and rubbed her daughter's face. “Baby, it hasn't been safe recently.

“For safety’s sake, we'd better stay at the hotel and not go out.” “Why?” Lilia asked in confusion.

Lilia was still young and did not know about the thrilling moments her parents had experienced.

“Umm, because there are bad people on the street!” “Mommy, Darcy and Carson are so powerful. With them around, who would dare to bully us?” When Joanna heard this, she sighed deeply and hugged her daughter. “Bad people don’t necessarily use force.

“Some bad people are very cunning. They might use other methods to harm others.” Lilia blinked her big eyes in confusion.

Although she was very sensible, she was still young.

Lilia could not understand the darkness and danger between adults.

“So when can we get out?” “Umm. We will have to bear with it for a few more days! When Daddy comes, we can go out.” Joanna smiled and comforted her daughter.

Bruce was a nasty bastard.

However, with him by her side, Joanna felt much more at ease. No matter what happened, Bruce could think of a perfect solution.

“Oh, alright then!” Lilia compromised.

Although Lilia did not quite understand the danger her mommy was talking about, she had always been a very good and sweet child. Therefore, Lilia would not keep pestering her mother.

At the Greyport Hospital.

After the doctor finished the emergency treatment, they walked out of the emergency room.

“How is it? Can you perform the surgery now?” Bruce asked anxiously.

“Mr. Everett, we can’t do the surgery today. We have to arrange it until tomorrow morning.

“Because there's a blood test. It's best to be done when he hasn't had breakfast.” “Alright! Arrange it as soon as possible.” Bruce's frown deepened.

In the ward, the child was tired from crying and fell asleep again.

Looking at his son’s swollen face, Bruce felt a terrible heartache.

Father and son were connected.

Devin was Bruce's youngest son. Of course, Bruce wished he could bear the pain for his son.

“Mr. Everett, why don’t you go back and rest tonight?” The babysitter said respectfully.

“We'll take care of Devin here.” “No need. I'll stay with you at the hospital.” “Alright, okay.” The next day.

Eight o'clock in the morning.

The attending doctor arranged the operating room and prepared for Devin's surgery.

The surgery was not complicated. It was done in less than half an hour.

However, the child was still young, and postoperative care was very important.

Sometimes, unexpected things happened.

Poor families didn’t take meticulous care of their children. Instead, those kids were healthy and had great immunity systems.

On the other hand, children from rich families were always protected and cared for. However, the rich kids would fall sick at the drop of a hat, and their immunity was extremely poor.

Bruce stayed up all night.

Now, he was waiting anxiously outside the operating room.

With a notification sound, the door of the operating room was pushed open.

The doctor and nurse wheeled Devin out.

“How w was the surgery?” Seeing this, Bruce immediately went was the surgery?” “Mr. Everett, don’t worry! The surgery was successful. Devin just needs to stay in the hospital for two days.

“It's nothing serious. You don’t have to worry about it.” Bruce finally heaved a sigh of relief.

When the children were sick, even if it was just a small illness or pain, parents would be very anxious.

“It's just a newborn hernia. It's not a big problem.” “Oh, alright then.” Bruce finally felt relieved.

Thankfully, his son was fine.

Back in the ward.

szqsessiag “Beep, beep, beep.” Bruce called Andy again.

“Mr. Everett, what can | do for you?” “Book me a flight to Gaprington immediately.” Andy was stunned.

Didn't Andy just book a plane ticket last night? Andy thought that Mr. Everett had already arrived in Gaprington.

“Mr. Everett, where are you now?” Andy blurted out.

Bruce replied in a muffled voice, “I'm at the hospital now.” “Oh, where is the hospital?” “Why are you asking so much nonsense?” “I asked you to book a flight. Why are you asking so many questions?” Bruce's tone instantly became impatient.

Andy's heart tightened. He said in a low voice, “Oh, oh, I'll book it immediately.

“When do you plan to leave, Mr. Everett?” Bruce looked at his son. He planned to stay with his son in the hospital for a few days.

As long as his son passed the critical period, Bruce would be at ease.

“Book the day after tomorrow!” “Alright, I'll book it immediately.

“Um, Mr. Everett, do you plan to recover your schedule for the following two days?” “No need!”
