Chapter 778
The smokey session continued for a long time….
His wound was torn open, and bright red blood seeped through the gauze, dyeing the white gauze
bright red.
Unfortunately…
The pain from his wound was catalyzed into a raging anger.
He did not care.
He let the blood flow freely….
As Joanna pushed and hit him, her hands were stained with blood. She was too scared to continue
pushing him.
His body temperature was terrifyingly high. It was not the body temperature of a normal person at all.
He was having a high fever.
“Bruce, you bastard, you lunatic.”
“Do you want to die? Let go of me now…” Joanna cried in fear.
From the intense resistance at the beginning to the heart-wrenching worry.
Finally.
She did not dare to resist anymore.
She knew that the more she resisted, the more agitated he would become.
She could only hug him tightly and begged him not to do this.
“Bruce, stop… Let me take a look at your injuries…”
If this continued, he would die.
She was afraid of this man who was so evil till it drove him crazy.
People often say that the woman a man loves the most is the one who always makes him smile. And
women, on the other hand, love the man who always makes them cry.
That was indeed the case.
Women have no emotional fluctuations towards men they don’t love. They couldn’t care less about how
he felt, as it was none of their concern.
When a woman truly loves a man, every move made by him could affect her emotions. Sometimes,
even if the man merely spouts the wrong words, it can make her sad and upset for a long time.
“Bruce…”
Tears filled Joanna’s eyes and slid helplessly onto the pillow.
An hour later.
The storm finally calmed down…
Bruce’s eyes seemed to be burning like two balls of flames. “Honey, do you love me?”
Joanna no longer had the strength to answer any of his questions. Her entire body was about to split
open.
“Cough cough…”
Bruce coughed and fell onto the bed in a daze.
In the past few days.
He felt extreme anxiety every moment, and his wound had not been recovering well.
His wound was inflamed, causing him to have a high fever.
And now, his mind had finally relaxed.
He could not hold on any longer.
“Bruce… Bruce…”.
Seeing this, Joanna could not stay angry with him.
Enduring the pain, she struggled to sit up. She wanted to check where he was injured. How many
injuries did he sustain?
There was already a lot of blood being stained on the white bedsheets.
“Hurry up and let me see it.”
Joanna gently removed the gauze on his left shoulder, which was already on the verge of falling off.
The gauze was removed.
Joanna’s scalp went numb. She felt like her head was about to explode.
Under the gauze.
It was a bloody hole that looked like a black pit. Although the hole had been surgically sealed, it could
still be seen.
This wound was deep, and it was not a knife wound.
“Bruce, how did you get injured?”,
“I’m fine,” Bruce replied weakly. He grabbed her hand and closed his eyes.
Joanna’s heart was pounding loudly, and her mind was blank.
Just now, she knew he was injured, but she did not expect it to be more serious than she had ever
imagined.
“Was this wounded by a gunshot?” Joanna blurted out.
Bruce did not answer. He just closed his eyes and panted.
“Bruce, why exactly did you go to Antlen?”
“I will take you to the hospital now!”
Bruce shook his head weakly. “I can’t go to the hospital. Otherwise, it will cause unnecessary trouble.”
“I’m fine. I just encountered a robbery overseas!”
When Joanna heard this, she did not care about asking for further details on what exactly happened. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“Then I’ll get someone to inform Dr. Dotson to come over immediately.”
Joanna hurriedly jumped off the bed with her limp body.
Then, she shouted at the servant outside the door, “Lilian, call Dr. Dotson over immediately!”
“Alright!”
“Ask him to prepare more anti-inflammatory medicine and medicine to treat external injuries.”
“Yes, okay.”
After instructing the servants.
Joanna didn’t bother to clean herself up and quickly put on an oversized nightgown. She then brought
over the readily, available medical kit at home.
She wanted to help ease his inflammation and stop the bleeding first.
This detestable bastard.
He always gave her heartache.
Three minutes later.
Joanna opened the first aid kit and took out iodine and medicine to stop the bleeding. She also took out
disinfectant cotton balls.
She carefully wiped away the blood on his wound.
Bruce slowly opened his eyes and looked at Joanna, who was wiping away tears while applying
medicine for him.
He couldn’t help but smile.
This woman only had a stubborn mouth.
She still loved him in her heart.
“Tell me, why did you block me?” Bruce purposely put on a stern face and questioned.
“Joanna’s hands trembled as she looked into his eyes with tears in her eyes.
Bruce snorted. “You despicable little thing. I haven’t been teaching you a lesson recently. Had your
wings hardened?” “Don’t worry. I’ll teach you a lesson every day from now on. Let’s see if you still dare
to be so disobedient.”
When Joanna heard this, her tears instantly fell uncontrollably. Her heart was filled with anger and
heartache. She had mixed feelings and was filled with sorrow.
“You damn bastard, can’t you see the situation now? You still have the mood to say such shameless
words.”
Seeing her crying harder, Bruce did not dare to tease her anymore. He quickly apologized in all
seriousness, “Honey, I’m sorry. I was wrong.”
“I won’t dare to do it again. Don’t be angry with me anymore, okay?” Bruce struggled to get up and
wanted to hug her.
Joanna pushed him away. “Get lost. You say that every time, but you never keep your promise.”
“I don’t trust you anymore. I’ll never trust you again. Why did you come back? Why did you come back
to make me so sad?”
As Joanna scolded him, she wiped her tears in grievance and anger.
Since the other woman was so good, why did he return to look for her?
Bruce frowned. He stretched out his arm and forcefully held her in his arms.
“I’m sorry. I’ll keep my word this time.”
“Hurry up and let go…”
A hint of helplessness appeared on Bruce’s handsome face. “Honey, why don’t you believe me?”
“It was all your wrongdoings. How can I trust you? Let go of me. I hate you to death.”
“Didn’t you want to protect your first love? Why did you come back?” The resentment in Joanna’s heart
could not be released. She could not forgive him easily.
“Haha…” Hearing this, Bruce suddenly laughed.
It was rare for him to see Joanna so angry and jealous.
In the past, she could truly endure a lot, maintaining an indifferent attitude toward everything, especially
relationships. She was distant and restrained.
He had once thought that she was such an unromantic woman.
Unexpectedly, this heartless and cold woman.
How could she be so jealous?
“Honey, are you jealous?” Bruce smiled evilly.
With a high fever, his face was flushed red, resembling someone who had drunk too much. His
expression looked even more mischievous and deserving of a slap after smiling.
“No, who’s jealous? I’m just stating facts!” Joanna wouldn’t admit that she was jealous.
Indeed, he was at fault, yet he was still teasing her for being jealous of another woman.
So what if she was jealous?
He shouldn’t have made his wife jealous of other women if he were a responsible man.
Ultimately it was still his fault.
“Honey, are you that unconfident in yourself?”
When Joanna heard this, she was even angrier. “Crazy, am I not confident? What does it have to do
with you having an affair?”
Bruce couldn’t help but laugh. “Do you think Aria can hold a candle to you?”
“…” Joanna Haynes was stunned. Tears brimmed in her eyes.
“If I wanted to find a woman, do you think I couldn’t find anyone I wanted openly? Do I need to sneak
around with her?”
… Joanna’s eyes darkened, and she became even angrier!
This cunning bastard had a glib tongue. He is quick-witted and fast-thinking. Most people can’t keep up
with his mind.
She has to be careful and not let him manipulate her.
“Honey, I’m not a 20-year-old child. I’m mature enough when it comes to relationships.”
“I’m already in my 30s. I’m confident enough to control my feelings.”
“Aria has cancer, and my feelings for her are purely out of sympathy. If I am involved with her
romantically, would I rush back like this?”
Joanna sneered coldly. “There’s no need to explain so much to me.”
As Bruce saw she was unwilling to forgive him, he deliberately covered his wound and groaned, “Ah, it
hurts.”
“Cough, cough. I might be dying soon.”
“Honey, if I die, take good care of our children and yourself.”
“Find another good man to marry.”
“There’s one thing, though. You can’t marry that creep, Jaydon.”
