The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna) novel Chapter 221

Chapter 221 

At 8:30 PM, the door swung open

A group of maids entered, carrying trays of different sizes

The trays were filled with a feast fit for a king

Ms. Chain maintained a gentle and respectful expression. Madam, this is the nutritious meal instructed by Mr. Everett to prepare for you!” 

I’m not eating!Joanna seethed with anger and had no appetite

Madam, you haven’t had lunch! Skipping dinner won’t do any good

You’re just one person, but you have to take care of the nourishment for two!” 

All of you, get out! Give me some time alone!” 

The six maids took a step back, their eyes fixed on her as if she were a criminal

Joanna was fuming with rage

Bruce had dared to restrict her personal freedom

Ms. Chain, I beg you, let me go! I can’t stay here” 

” 

Ms. Chain looked helpless. Besides using gentle persuasion, she had no authority to make decisions

Madam, please don’t worry

Mr. Everett doesn’t want you to leave. It’s for your own wellbeing! Before he left, he instructed us to serve you with utmost dedication

From this, it’s evident that he truly cares about you! Madam, please listen!” 

Joanna parted her lips, ready to retort

But after a moment’s thought, she couldn’t be bothered to say anything to them

They were just following orders. How could they dare to act on their own? Pleading with them was pointless

I’m not eating. I have no appetite!” 

Joanna meekly returned to bed. She hadn’t eaten a morsel all day

Perhaps it was due to morning sickness, but she didn’t feel hungry

In the blink of an eye, two days had passed

Joanna had been confined for a full fortyeight hours

Throughout these two days, the maids had kept a constant watch on her, 24 hours a day. If she did anything to harm herself, the maids would intervene immediately

Even as she slept, the maids remained close by, vigilant in their watch

This relentless surveillance took a toll on Joanna’s mental state

She was already battling depression and had to take antidepressants every day! Now, after two days without medication, her condition worsened

Unfortunately, these maids were like mindless machines. No matter what she said, they refused to listen

After two days. Joanna lost a considerable amount of weight and became even more agitated

Ms. Chain witnessed the scene unfold and couldn’t afford any further delays. She swiftly dialed Bruce’s number to give him. an update

Mr. Everett, you need to come back right away!” 

What’s going on?” 

Madam hasn’t eaten or drunk anything in the past two days! No matter how hard we try to persuade her, she refuses to 

listen

And her mental state is extremely unstable! Last night, she was banging on the walls in the bathroom” 

Hearing this, Bruce’s anger surged, and his frustration grew

How did he fail to notice Joanna’s stubborn and sharp personality all this time

Alright, I understand!” 

After ending the call, Bruce wasted no time and hurried over

How is Joanna doing?” 

Madam’s mood is very poor, sir. You should consider having a doctor examine her!” 

Upon hearing this, Bruce went straight upstairs

As he entered the room, the door creaked as Bruce quietly made his way in

Joanna had been restless for the past two days, barely getting any sleep. Finally, exhaustion took its toll, and she fell asleep. on the bed

At that moment, she resembled a sick cat, curled up into a small ball, lying on her side

Bruce sat by the bed, observing her. Her back was arched, and she appeared frail

As Bruce continued to watch, he absentmindedly entered a trance

It had been a while since he had taken such a close look at her

It had been a while since he had taken such a close look at her

Bruce couldn’t resist reaching out and gently brushing away the disheveled hair from her cheek

Startled, Joanna slowly opened her beautiful yet weary eyes

Chapter 

Bruce… 

Realizing that Bruce had arrived, she abruptly sat up, as if infused with newfound energy

Bruce, you jerk! Who gave you the right to confine me like this?Joanna was on the verge of losing her sanity

She struck out at Bruce and berated him, tears uncontrollably streaming down her face

Being confined had shattered her emotional stability

Bruce stood his ground, allowing her to strike and curse at him

After a while, when her emotions subsided slightly, he calmly said, Have the child. Once you’ve given birth, I’ll let you 

leave.” 

Gritting her teeth, Joanna glared at Bruce. Are you out of your mind? We’re already divorced. Why should I give birth to this child for you

It’s not like you haven’t given birth before!” 

Upon hearing this, Joanna seethed with anger

How could it be the same

When she gave birth to her first child, she lost all hope and felt utterly alone in the world

And now, burdened with various troubles, she had no desire to endure another pregnancy, especially since Roxanne Haynes was also pregnant

If she and Roxanne gave birth to their children consecutively, the entertainment reporters in Greyport would undoubtedly 

create a commotion

Who knew what kind of storm it would unleash

Do the right thing and have the child.” 

Bruce, it’s impossible, I’m telling you, it’s impossibleJoanna weakly refused

Ignoring her, Bruce walked directly to the table and said, Come and eat!

I ain’t eating, I won’t touch my food

If you won’t let me leave, I’ll starve to death right here!” 

Fine!” 

Bruce Everett didn’t utter another word. He simply grabbed his phone and sent a message

A moment later, the door swung open once again

Mommy… 

Davian and Irvin hurriedly entered from outside the door

The servants also ushered in Lilia

Upon hearing this, Joanna’s heart trembled, and she swiftly turned around

Davian, Irvin, Lilia!Joanna struggled to run toward her children

She hadn’t seen them for nearly a month

Mommy, we miss you so much!” 

Mommy misses you too! Mommy misses you too!” 

Joanna tightly embraced her three children and couldn’t help but burst into tears

The pain she felt was akin to having her flesh sliced

Mommy, don’t you want us anymore?” 

How could that be? Mommy will always love you, my darlings” 

As Joanna spoke, tears streamed down uncontrollably. Her throat choked, rendering her unable to utter a word

These were her three children. They were the most precious beings to her! Even with her current pregnancy, they meant more to her than anything, even more than Davian and the others

Mommy, please don’t cry. Don’t cry anymore. Davian tenderly reached out his warm hand and wiped away her tears

Lilia couldn’t hold back her tears either. Mommy, did you have a fight with Daddy again?” 

Can you guys stop arguing?” 

Bruce listened, and his heart ached even more

Daddy, don’t fight with Mommy, okay?”
