Chapter 247
Bruce thought. “This silly woman really doesn’t know how to back down!
“She really wants me to lose face. Why can’t she just follow my wishes and take the initiative to mention remarrying me?
“Forget it! I shall swallow my pride. It doesn’t mean anything. My wife is more important!”
Bruce flicked his tongue and pretended to touch the tip of his nose!
“Joanna, 1… want to tell you something!”
“Oh, go ahead!” Joanna looked at Bruce seriously.
Bruce glanced at the servants and said, “All of you go out first!”
“Yes, sir!” Ms. Chain, Nancy, and the others did not dare to delay and hurriedly left the ward!
After they left, Bruce suddenly choked and stuttered. “Joanna…
He was usually a decisive and determined person!
However, now, he felt inexplicably awkward about proposing to his ex–wife.
Joanna looked at him feeling puzzled.
She thought, “Was there ever a time when he felt embarrassed?”
Bruce had always been bold and would never hesitate to say anything on his mind. Now, he was wondering what to say and muttering at some point.
“What are you trying to say?”
Bruce paused for a few seconds and said slowly, “Joanna!
“For the sake of the children, let’s… let’s remarry!”
With that, Bruce looked at Joanna solemnly and took out a box from his suit pocket!
There was a huge diamond ring inside the box!
Joanna was completely stunned!
Bruce brought the diamond ring in front of Joanna.
“Marry me! I did not propose to you the last time. I’ll make it up to you this time!”
With that, Bruce knelt on one knee and handed the ring to Joarina!
He had already planned everything properly.
Regardless of whether it was for the sake of the children or for other reasons, he wanted to remarry Joanna!
All these years, other than Roxanne, he had been surrounded by many different kinds of women!
Most of these women were greedy and vain. They all wanted to be with him to get money or power.
Only Joanna didn’t care about his money.
However, some people were strange. The more others did not want it, the more they wanted to give it to them.
Joanna looked at Bruce in horror,
She was stunned for a long time.
She came back to her senses and said, “Bruce, stop fooling around!”
“I’m not fooling around. I’m serious! I’ve already thought about it. For the sake of the children, let’s
remarry!”
After saying that. Bruce took the diamond ring and pulled her hand, wanting to put the ring on her
hand!
Joanna was stunned for a moment and subconsciously retracted his hand!
“No!”
She could not accept him!
She was a little touched, and her hatred for him was not that deep anymore!
However, she was really in pain. She had not forgotten how much she suffered. After marrying Bruce
previously, she was in so much pain that she did not want to go though it again.
“Bruce, don’t make a scene! I… You….” Joanna stuttered too.
She never expected that Bruce really wanted to remarry her.
She really couldn’t understand what he was thinking.
Bruce asked solemnly. “What do you mean me and you? What are you trying to say?”
Joanna pulled her hand back, and the expression in her eyes became uneasy. “I want to say that
Roxanne is now pregnant with your child. If we get married again, what do you want her to do?”
“Joanna, it’s impossible between me and Roxanne! I told you a long time ago that there was a
misunderstanding between us!
“Even if she wasn’t the mastermind, there’s no way we can get back together!”
Joanna was a little upset. “Bruce, can you be more mature?
“Marriage is not child’s play. You always make decisions so suddenly. It’s really unbearable!”
Because of him, she had been criticized by the people in Greyport for six years!
If she got back together with him now, she would probably be scolded a bitch who seduced her
brother–in–law again.
Bruce paused for a few seconds and stared at Joanna. “What’s so unbearable about this? Or you can’t
forget another man?”
Lilia chimed in and shook Joanna’s arm coquettishly. “Mommy, just promise Daddy!”
“Yes, remarry! We want to be with Mommy forever!” Irvin added.
Only Davian remained silent.
No matter what decision his mommy made, he would support her.
“Stop arguing! This matter is very serious. Mommy has to consider it slowly!” All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Joanna thought about it carefully and did not dare to reject Bruce directly!
She was afraid that he would take the children away again.
“Bruce, I… I’m not mentally prepared yet! You proposed too suddenly. I haven’t thought about it at all!
13:46 Tue,
“Can you not talk about marriage for now? When everything is settled smoothly, we can talk about
remarrying after we have both seriously considered it!”
When Bruce heard this, he did not say anything for a long time!
Perhaps, he really needed to give her some time! After all, he had hurt her so deeply in the past!
If she agreed to remarry him so easily, it would seem degrading for her.
Bruce thought that Joanna was testing him.
“Alright, I respect your decision.”
“However, I will definitely marry you again!” Bruce said as he held Joanna’s hand tightly and kissed it
gently.
“Mommy. Daddy, we’re a family. We’ll never be separated, okay?”
Bruce laughed. “Of course!”
Irvin pouted. “Daddy, you must not marry that bad woman, Roxanne Haynes. We don’t like her!”
“Don’t worry! Daddy won’t marry her. Daddy won’t marry anyone else except your mommy!”
Joanna’s heart sank and did not want to continue the topic. “Don’t talk about these things today!”
“Yes, yes, yes. It’s Christmas. I should say something happy!”
“Let’s watch the fireworks!”
They heard another loud sound.
The fireworks outside were still blooming in the sky.
The two little boys could not help but run to the window. “Wow, the fireworks are really beautiful!”
“Mommy, look! Daddy specially prepared these for you. Are you touched?”
Joanna looked at the dazzling fireworks outside the window and felt a pain in her heart.
“Bruce, can you not be so high–profile? You’re putting me in a difficult position!”
She was now the queen of topics in Greyport again. She really didn’t want to be the topic of gossip!
“What’s there to be troubled about? I’m clearing your name! Let everyone know that I’m the one
professing my love to you! It’s not the other way around!”
Joanna frowned in frustration. “I don’t need you to clear my name like this!”
Joanna, you’re being too cautious!”
Soon, everyone in Greyport was talking about Bruce’s high–profile confession of love to his ex–wife.
“Oh my god, are Mr. Everett and Joanna Haynes getting back together?”
“That’s impossible. Isn’t Miss Roxanne pregnant with Mr. Everett’s child? If he remarries his ex–wife, what will happen to
Miss Roxanne?”
“Hey, why are you worried about such stuff? He has money. He can support both women.”
“Gosh! Miss Haynes is really scheming! Mr. Everett is still attracted to her…”
Christmas Day.
The first wave of news headlines on Christmas Day was dominated by Bruce Everett’s high–profile display of love with fireworks!
“Mr. Everett threw hundreds of thousands of dollars to confess his love to his ex–wife.”
“Miss Roxanne’s dream of marrying into a wealthy family is gone!”
“Mr. Everett and his ex–wife got back together. The biggest news in the century.”
“Miss Roxanne otherwise known as the single parent.”
Wave after wave of explosive news flooded the Internet.
At the Haynes’s house!
Everyone in Greyport knew that Bruce had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to set off fireworks and express his love for Joanna.
Roxanne naturally saw the news too.
Joanna Haynes has indeed reconciled with Bruce at this time!”
Ingrid also cursed angrily, “Bruce Everett, that bastard. Roxy has loved the wrong person!”
“Mom, what should I do?” Roxanne looked depressed!
In the past, she could threaten Bruce with suicide.
But now, it seemed that even if she really committed suicide, Bruce would still be indifferent.
Ingrid was so angry that she choked. Her eyes bulged like a toad’s. “Can you not ask me what to do every time something happens?
“How would I know what to do? After helping you to think of so many ways, you still lost your man!”
Roxanne could not help but cry again. I’m pregnant now. What about this child?
“What he’s doing now is clearly sending a big slap onto my face.”
Ingrid rolled her eyes and said fiercely, “No matter what, this child is your leverage. You have to give birth to it!”
“Mom!”
Shaun happened to come downstairs. “What are you arguing about again?”
“Look at your scheming daughter. Look at what she’s done!”
“Sigh!” Shaun sighed deeply!
