The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna) novel Chapter 1089

Chapter 1089 

“It’s okay. I’m not tired. I just don’t want to see you suffer,” Bruce said gently and considerately. 

Joanna didn’t say anything. She just lay quietly on his lap. 

Bruce did not say anything else and gently and patiently massaged her temples. 

His large hands were soft and gentle, and the strength of his massage was just right. It was especially comfortable. 

Less than ten minutes later, Joanna fell asleep unknowingly. 

Similarly, just as she fell asleep, she began to dream of some strange dreams again. 

In the dream, she had been walking on a dark path. As she walked, the figure of the monster suddenly appeared in front of her. 

“Ah…” Joanna’s heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly woke up from her dream. 

Seeing this, Bruce quickly patted her shoulder to comfort her. “Joann, what’s wrong? Did you have nightmare again?” 

Joanna panted a few times, still feeling a lingering fear. “I’m fine. It’s okay. Why did I fall asleep just now?” 

“It’s okay. Maybe you’re too sleepy. You can sleep if you want.” 

Joanna insisted on sitting straight. Her face was covered in cold sweat. 

She 

suddenly had a feeling that the monster in her dream was definitely related to Bruce. 

It was said that there was telepathy between the people who loved each other the most. This was a kind of chemistry that even science could not explain. 

Therefore, she had this dream over and over again. This was also a form of telepathy. 

“Where are we?” 

“We should be there soon.” 

“Alright.” Joanna opened the window again and looked at the scenery outside. 

Half an hour later, the car arrived at the villa. 

“We’re here! It’s time to get off.” 

“Uh-huh.” 

In front of them was a manor villa. It occupied a large area and looked very luxurious. 

Joanna had been here before, so she was not that unfamiliar with it. 

The butler and the servants in Melta had already received the call and were waiting at the door to welcome them. 

“Welcome home, Mr. and Mrs. Everett.” The butler greeted them in Antlenish. 

Bruce and Joanna got out of the car, and the others followed. 

“Everyone has worked hard today. Let’s take a break!” 

“Joann, don’t split rooms tonight.” 

The group followed the butler into the villa. 

“Mr. and Mrs. Everett, your bedroom is ready.” 

“Got it.” 

Joanna and Bruce made their way to the master bedroom. 

“It’s really a tiring trip!” Bruce subconsciously stretched and took off his suit. 

Joanna went to pour a glass of water and pretended to take a few sips. Then, she carried another glass of water to Bruce’s side. 

“Are you thirsty? Have some water!” Joanna smiled and handed him a glass of water. 

Bruce did not suspect anything. He took the water and drank it. 

“Thank you, honey.” 

Seeing that he had finished all the water, Joanna smiled reassuringly. “You’re welcome.” 

Five minutes later, Bruce began to yawn non-stop, looking extremely sleepy. 

“Honey, what’s wrong?” Joanna asked. 

“I’m fine. Maybe I’m tired and want to sleep…” 

As he spoke, Bruce could not help but lie on the bed. He didn’t even finish taking off his shoes. 

Joanna pretended to be concerned and asked, “Do you have a cold?” 

“Maybe a little.” 

“Then quickly lie down and sleep for a while!” Joanna said. 

“Uh-huh. I’m going to sleep first, then,” Bruce muttered weakly. He let out a big yawn and closed his heavy eyelids. 

Joanna drugged him with tranquilizer pills in the water he had just drunk. 

He would be very sleepy after drinking the water. 

Soon, Bruce fell into a deep sleep. 

“Bruce. Hey, Bruce,” Joanna called out tentatively. 

Bruce slept very soundly and did not react at all. Seeing this, Joanna relaxed a little. 

She took off his shoes and tucked him in. 

Although this Bruce in front of her was fake, he had never harbored any ill intentions toward her. 

Therefore, she could not bear to hurt him. 

After knocking Bruce out, Joanna walked out of the bedroom. 

Darcy, Carson, Benny, and the others were all guarding downstairs. 

“Darcy, Carson, listen up. When that Leo comes later, you guys must take him down. You can’t let him leave this place.” 

“Got it, Mrs. Everett.” The few of them looked solemn. 

“Alright, go and prepare now.” 

“Roger that!” 

Joanna had called Aria when she was at the airport. It was already two in the afternoon. Leo should arrive in an hour. 

At 3:30 p.m., Leo drove to the villa. 

Joanna personally waited at the door. When she saw him coming, she immediately went forward to welcome him. “Mr. Leo, it’s been a long journey!” 

Facing Joanna, Leo still felt a little guilty. “It’s nothing. It’s only right for me to come and take a look at Bruce.” 

“Come on! Let’s go in!” Joanna smiled gently. 

Leo got out of the car without any suspicion and followed Joanna into the house. 

“How’s Bruce?” Leo asked. 

Joanna deliberately frowned. “He has a cold and just taken some medicine. He’s sleeping very soundly 

now. 

“Oh, don’t worry. I’ll go over and take a look at him now.” Leo felt a little scared. 

Although Bruce’s clone had been perfected as much as possible, a clone was still a clone. No matter how similar it was to a real person, there would still be some problems. 

Right now, all he could do was try his best not to let the clone show any flaws. 

This was his final promise to Bruce. And it was also Bruce’s last wish. 

Bruce didn’t want Joanna to be sad and heartbroken, and he didn’t want her and their children to lose their support. 

24 

With this clone around, even if a fake Bruce, those cunning ones in Everett Group and their business opponents would not dare to touch Joanna and their children easily. 

As for business matters, with Joanna’s intelligence, she could completely handle them. Bruce’s only worry was that Joanna and the children would not be able to accept his death and would completely collapse. If it was him, he would also be in so much pain that he would not be able to live if Joanna died. Therefore, Bruce had planned this a long time ago. If something bad happened to him, he would have the clone go home in his place and accompany Joanna and their children. 

“Come in!” 

“Thank you.” 

“Where is Bruce?”
