Chapter 1063
After Joanna comforted her son, she was still a little uneasy.
Beep, beep, beep.
“Hello, the number you have dialed is unavailable…”
“Sigh, why can’t I get through to you? What are you doing?”
“Bruce, you have to come back safely. Don’t let anything happen to you. My heart can’t take any more blows,” Joanna muttered to herself in a daze.
Indeed, after so many blows, she was easily alarmed. She could no longer withstand any shocks or stimulation.
She just wanted to live a peaceful life and not have any more troubles.
Joanna couldn’t fall asleep. She felt stuffy, and she wanted to talk to someone. After thinking about it, only Grace had something in common with her.
[Grace, are you asleep? Have you contacted Darcy?] Joanna sent a message to Grace.
Grace was still in Melta. She would definitely be more well-informed than her. Joanna wanted to ask if Grace had any news about Darcy. Even if Bruce could not be contacted, it would be good if she could contact Darcy.
Anyway, Darcy had been following Bruce. They were definitely together.
Due to the time difference, it was still four or five in the morning at Melta.
Joanna originally thought she would reply get a reply from Grace when Grace woke up.
However, as soon as she sent the message, Grace immediately made a video call. “Hello, Joann.”
Joanna hurriedly picked up the video call. “Grace, why aren’t you asleep yet? It should still be at night at your place, right?”
In the call, Grace’s eyes were red as she leaned against the pillow. “I can’t sleep. I’ve been suffering from insomnia for the past few days. I can’t sleep at all.”
“Hmm, have you contacted Darcy in the past two days?” Joanna asked subconsciously. Although she knew the chances were slim, she still had a hint of anticipation.
When Grace heard that, her eyes turned even redder, and her voice became even more choked up. “No! No matter how I called him, I couldn’t get through. Joann, what did they go to do? Why are they so mysterious? They didn’t even give me a call.”
“I’m so annoyed and worried. If anything happens to Darcy, what will I do? I realize that I’ve already fallen in love with him. Without him, I won’t be able to live.”
Grace was the age where love was paramount. She would not restrain her feelings at all. Of course, she did not want to restrain herself either.
“Uh…” Joanna’s gaze darkened, not knowing how to comfort her.
Grace sniffed and said aggrievedly, “Joann, I’m very worried now. I haven’t slept for the past two days.”
“I keep feeling that something is going to happen to Darcy. I can’t contact him now, and I’m about to break down. What did your husband go to do? Is he doing something dangerous? I heard that Darcy used to box in the underground boxing ring. Did your husband ask Darcy to fight in the underground boxing ring again?”
“Grace, don’t worry. They should be back soon.” Joanna could only comfort her with that.
But in fact, what they were doing was much more dangerous than boxing. They could lose their life any
minute.
Therefore, Bruce did not dare to tell Joanna the truth. If he told her the truth, she would probably be scared out of her wits and stop him from going to Melta no matter what.
“Then what are they doing? Do they need to turn off their phones? Now that I can’t contact him, I really don’t know what to do. I’m very anxious and panicky!” Grace said like a child and couldn’t help but sob.
She had just expressed her feelings to Darcy, and the two of them were in love. Now that they were forced

to separate and could not contact each other, she could not stand it. She had already decided to marry Darcy after he returned.
“Silly girl, don’t cry. It’s nothing. They’re just going for business.” Joanna barely comforted her, and her nose began to ache.
She was even more panicked and worried that something would happen to Bruce.
To be honest, Darcy was a loner who came and went without any worries. Even if he died unluckily, it would not cause much commotion. If someone like Bruce, who had a family and a huge business empire, died, it would be even worse.
Grace also noticed the change in Joanna’s tone and felt even more scared. “Joann… Don’t cry anymore. I’m not blaming you. I’m just worried about them.”
“That’s all for now! I’ll contact you immediately when there’s news.”
“Alright then!”
“Don’t think too much. Go to bed early.”
“Yes, I know.”
After hanging up, Joanna was in a daze for a few minutes. Her mind was in a daze, and her heart was in a
mess.
“Bruce, you damn bastard, you’re always making me worry. What the hell are you doing?”
Joanna was still in a daze when Miranda ran in again.
“Joann, the sun outside is very warm. Go out and bask in the sun.”
“Don’t be cooped up in the house all the time. It’s easy to let your imagination run wild.”
“Alright!” Joanna took a deep breath and did not want to think too much.
Carrying Devin, she also walked out of the house.
At no man’s land.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Bruce slowly regained consciousness. As soon as he opened his eyes, he felt as if he had fallen into a bottomless abyss and kept spinning in the vortex.
“Ouch, it hurts…” Bruce breathed weakly and rolled his eyes.
In front of him was a large glass cover and various high-tech instruments.
There were also many people in white coats and gas masks walking around.
Bruce was stunned and subconsciously wanted to sit up. “What is this place?”
The moment he moved, he realized his hands and feet were firmly fixed by restraints.
As he woke up, someone exclaimed with Antlenish.
“Oh, he’s awake. Sure enough, his stamina is different from ordinary people.”
“He actually survived the energy radiation. That’s great!”
Then, four or five people immediately surrounded the glass cover. They stood around the glass cover excitedly and looked at Bruce greedily.
Bruce struggled with all his might, but it was useless.
In front of him, there was a row of things that looked like lampshades. They emitted a faint blue light and shone on his body. There was a weak stinging feeling. It was like countless thin needles stabbing into his nerves through his pores.
“This is… District 17!” After Bruce reacted, his mind exploded. He quickly looked around.
