Chapter 353
Joanna pushed Bruce away stiffly and wiped away the saliva he left on her lips. She glared at him in exasperation.
“Don’t mess around okay? If you dare to do anything. I’m really leaving.”
“Do you hate me so much?”
“You are simply crazy!” Joanna could not help but curse.
Bruce grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms. Then, he kissed her fiercely.
“Uh, let go. Joanna held her breath.
Unfortunately, Bruce did not care and forcefully trapped her in his arms, not giving her a chance to resist.
Joanna tried to push him away a few times but failed. She was afraid that she would touch his wound, so she could only let him kiss her forcefully
Three minutes later!
The smell of blood filled their mouths. A thin layer of cold sweat appeared on Bruce’s forehead. He frowned and subconsciously let go of Joanna
“Kaff, kaff” Bruce touched his wound again. He weakly coughed twice, and a trace of blood seeped out of the corner of his lips.
Seeing this, Joanna couldn’t be bothered to blame him for using force on her. “Look at you I asked you not to do anything. but you still did that.
“It’s better if you die of vomiting too much blood” Joanna was blaming him. She hurriedly went out, wanting to call the doctor here.
“Joanna, don’t go Bruce no longer appeared to be arrogant. He hugged her tightly and tried his best to press their bodies. together
Joanna’s body stiffened, and she subconsciously wanted to refuse
However, he was hugging her too tightly, so she could only stay there stiffly and let him hug her.
Bruce took a deep breath and said in a heavy voice, “Joanna, if I die, take good care of the children! Take care of the children and live well.”
Joanna’s pupils contracted. Her heart felt as if it had been stabbed by something. She felt an inexplicable sadness. She had never thought that Bruce would die.
Even if he died, it would be in the distant future! Hearing him say that now, she felt strange.
“I’ll leave the inheritance to you and the children. Don’t work too hard. I have enough money for you and the children to spend for several lifetimes.”
Goosebumps rose all over Joanna’s body when she heard this. “Bruce, what are you talking about?”
“You’re just bleeding from the stomach because you drank too much wine. You’ll be fine soon.”
Bruce smiled sadly and said even more sadly, “I know my own body. My father and grandfather passed away from stomach
cancer
“This is a genetic disease of our family. I don’t think I can escape this fate. There are already signs of it now. I think it will soon turn into gastric cancer.
Bruce said bleakly with a hint of sadness.
Actually, his illness was not that serious. It was just that he was too smart and knew Joanna’s weakness better.
He had deliberately exaggerated his illness to soften her heart and make her afraid. From there, she would change her mind and come back to be with him.
Many men were good at this. Playing weak to win sympathy. It was easy and effective.
When Joanna heard this, she felt really uncomfortable. “You jinx. How can you curse yourself like this? Don’t think too much. Don’t scare yourself.
“Your body is so healthy. You’ll be fine after resting for a few days.”
Bruce put on a serious expression and caressed Joanna’s cheek affectionately. “Joanna, thank you for giving birth to three children for me. Otherwise, I would have no family in this world.
“I really feel so lonely. Every day when I come back from work, the house is empty and I can’t feel any warmth of home. No family member is there waiting for me.
Chapter 353
“I feel that I’m really poor. I have no parents, no siblings, no relatives, no wife. I’m so poor that I only have money”
His trick worked
Joanna’s eyes were filled with gentleness. “Don’t you like money the most? Don’t you think that money can buy everything? As long as you have money, you don’t need to care about anything else!”
Bruce’s eyes flickered. “Who said I don’t care? I’m a human too. I’m also very fragile. I just don’t dare to fall, so I am just holding on.
“In this world, the strong prey on the weak. If I fall, I’ll be devoured by others very quickly.”
“Alright, let’s not talk about this!
“Lie down and rest. Think about something happy.”
When Bruce heard this, his eyes became empty. “I don’t have anything to be happy about!”
What he said was true!
His life value and ideals had all been realized. He no longer had any material or career pursuits. However, people were always so greedy. When they were poor, they felt that money was the most important. When they were rich, they felt that feelings were the most important.
People were always pursuing things that they did not have. The more they lacked something, the more they yearned for something.
He now had billions of dollars. His money was enough to be spent for a few lifetimes. However, no one could share his success with him!
No one truly loved him.
The people around him were just after his money.
Joanna did not know how to comfort him. She only patted his shoulder gently. “Relax, don’t think too much!
“You know that I don’t know how to comfort others! I can’t say anything nice to make you feel better.”
“You don’t have to say anything. I’m already very comforted as long as you are with me.
“Sometimes, I really envy Jaydon…”
Joanna’s eyes darkened and interrupted him. “Why are you talking about someone else again?”
‘Really! I’m particularly jealous of him. Because, well, he has your heart now.”
Joanna frowned slightly, not wanting to hear him continue.
“Don’t talk so much. Hurry up. Lie down and rest for a while!!”
Bruce let out a deep breath. “When I’m discharged. I’ll bring the children back. You can come and see them anytime,
“If I really die one day, don’t be sad for me.”
“Can you not say such sad things?”
Bruce said such sad words to her for the first time!
However, when she heard these words, they were like thorns that pierced into her heart.
She would rather he be as arrogant and condescending as before. She did not want to see him really like a patient, dispirited
and weak.
Beep, beep, beep!
Joanna’s phone vibrated.
“Excuse me, I’m going out to answer a call.”
With that, Joanna hurried out of the ward with the phone.
“Hey, Jay!”
Jaydon’s voice came from the other end of the video call. “Joann, are you still in the hospital?”
“Yep!”
“Why are your eyes red? Did you cry just now?”
“Oh, nol”
“Did something happen again?”
“It’s fine, it’s really fine. You don’t have to worry.” Joanna tried her best to squeeze out a smile.
Is Bruce alright?”
The operation is already over. He will be discharged from hospital the next month.”
The two of them were chatting on the video call.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
An ear–piercing sound came from the ward, as if something had hit the ground!
“Jay, wait a minute!” Joanna was shocked. She hurriedly pushed open the door of the ward and went in to check.
