Chapter 1259
In the blink of an eye, a week passed.
Joanna was on the verge of death every day, and the doctor had already given notice of critical illness many times.
Bruce stayed in the hospital every day, not daring to part with her for an inch.
He was afraid that once he left, he would be separated from Joanna forever.
On the eighth day, Bruce stood guard outside the ward as usual. A thousand thoughts flashed across his heart, and he was completely desperate. Beep, beep, beep!
The phone rang.
Bruce took a look. It was an international number. "Hello, who is this?"
On the other end of the phone, a woman's arrogant laughter could be heard. "Hahaha, Bruce, it's me!"Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
Bruce frowned, and the blood in his body boiled. "Miya Rhodes!"
"Hehe. You recognized my voice, right? You're so awesome, Mr. Everett!" Miya laughed even more provocatively.
When Bruce heard this, the veins on his temples bulged. "What did you do to my child?"
"Hehe, as expected of a third-generation genetically modified person's offspring. Your fifth child is very healthy and cute."
Bruce paused in his breathing and clenched his fists tightly. "Miya, what are you trying to do?"
Miya's smile became even more charming and smug. "Bruce, you're a third-generation genetically modified person. Do you know how precious your genes are?" Bruce's eyes flashed as he gritted his teeth in hatred.
Miya said, "Tsk, tsk, tsk... Look, even your wife's genes have changed after her pregnancy.
"She was disemboweled by me to give birth to your child and bled so much, but she didn't die.
"I'm so envious. How about I give birth to a child for you? So that I can have your genes too."
"You're crazy. I'm warning you. If you dare to hurt my child, I won't let you off!" Bruce hated Miya to the core.
If Miya were in front of him now, he would really skin her alive and burn her bones to ashes.
"Hahaha. Then how do you plan not to let me off? I'm waiting for you in South Elmerton. If you don't come over soon, it's hard to say if your child will become a guinea pig," said Miya.
When Bruce heard this, he was even more furious. He roared fiercely, "How dare you? Don't touch my child. Otherwise, I'll definitely make you pay a painful price."
When Miya heard this, she deliberately said coquettishly, "Bruce, don't be so angry!
"You should thank our great researchers. We're the ones who made you so strong and so different.
"You're already the strongest man in the world. Don't be so stubborn. A wise man submits to circumstances. Work with us, and let's rule Earth together!"
"You crazy woman. You're dreaming!" said Bruce.
Miya said, "Hehe, let's think this way. There are too many useless losers in this world. They only live to waste Earth's resources.
"Humans need to evolve constantly to become stronger. Only the strong are the masters of this world.
"Don't be just an ordinary and useless piece of trash. Even if you're the number one talent in Special Affairs Bureau now, so what?
"You're still a lackey who's always submitting to others and at their command. How can it be as great as being the overlord of the world? You're a smart person. Don't suppress your ambitions. You should look farther ahead."
Bruce's eyebrows twitched when he heard this. He was so angry that his entire body was trembling.
He had always been the one threatening others.
He did not expect to be threatened one day.
"Miya, I advise you not to let your imagination run wild. Don't forget your roots."
Miya snorted. "You're still too narrow-minded. It appears that you are unwilling to give in obediently before I resort to extreme measures."
As she spoke, Miya pressed the remote control switch.
"Ah..." Bruce's head suddenly felt a pain as if it had been electrocuted.
"I'll give you a month. If you don't come to South Elmerton," Miya snorted before she continued, "not only will your wife and child be in danger, but you will also suffer a fate worse than death." "Bruce, we will wait for you and welcome you to join us. Hahaha..." After Miya finished speaking, she directly hung up the phone.
After hanging up, Bruce was even more furious, but there was nothing he could do.
This feeling of being cornered was really too maddening.
"Darcy, check this phone number immediately!" said Bruce.
"Okay, Mr. Everett," replied Darcy.
Ten minutes later, Darcy said, "Mr. Everett, we failed. We can't find it. This is an overseas number, and the high-end firewall is very strong. There's no way to locate it."
"Damn it..." Bruce cursed.
