The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna) novel Chapter 363

Chapter 363 

If she was just being Joanna’s younger sister and had no ill intentions towards Joanna, of course, Joanna was willing to take her away and take care of her for the rest of her life. 

However, now, Joanna wasn’t sure how much Roxanne Haynes’s condition had improved. 

Even though Roxanne’s eyes looked as harmless as a doe, Joanna knew that Roxanne was very smart and was even better at pretending. Perhaps she had already recovered and was just pretending to be sick! 

“Roxy, when you have recovered, I will definitely take you away from here.” 

When Roxanne heard this, her expression became even more pitiful. “Joanna, I’m not sick. I’m really not sick!” 

I’m begging you. Get me out of here. I swear, I’ll be good. I’ll be really good…” 

Roxanne suddenly became agitated and wanted to grab Joanna. 

“Roxy!” 

Two nurses hurried into the room. “Ms. Haynes. Visiting hours are over. We have to take her back to the ward.” 

When Roxanne heard this, she became even more agitated. “I’m not leaving. I want to go out. I don’t want to stay here! I’m not sick. I’m not sick…” 

“Give her a tranquilizer shot to calm her down!” 

“Okay,” one of the nurses replied and she hurried off to get the tranquilizer. 

When Roxanne heard this, she cried even more pitcously. “Joanna, please take me away. I won’t fight with you for Bruce anymore. I don’t want anything! 

“I just want to leave this place, Joanna. Please take me with you!” 

Two nurses stepped forward and held Roxanne down firmly. Then, they injected the tranquilizer into her arm! 

Soon, Roxanne’s body went limp and she fell asleep meekly. 

After watching this silently for a while, Joanna could not help inhaling deeply and a chill ran down her spine.. 

People who were admitted into a mental hospital would still be treated as mental health patients even if they weren’t mentally ill. 

Back then, in order to get Roxanne off the hook, Shaun Haynes deliberately said that she had mental health issues and sent her to a mental hospital. 

From the looks of it, Roxanne did seem to have some mental disorder. 

Joanna’s skin was numb as she walked out of the mental hospital somewhat in a daze. 

“Miss Haynes, let’s go!” 

“Mm–hmm!” Joanna replied in a leaden voice. 

Thereafter, Joanna quietly got into the car. Along the way, her mood was extremely downcast and depressed. 

Roxanne had been warded in the mental hospital for almost a year. 

To be honest, Joanna’s hatred for Roxanne was no longer that deep anymore. 

If Roxanne was willing to repent sincerely and if she no longer wanted to harm others, Joanna would not go against her anymore, and more than that, she would not lower herself to Roxanne’s level. 

“Miss Haynes, where do you wish to go now?” 

Joanna looked at her watch. It was not even five o’clock yet. “Let’s go back to the office!” 

“Alright!” 

An hour later, at the office of the Haynes Group. 

Joanna arrived at the office with a lot on her mind. 

As soon as she reached the reception, Luna hurriedly came up to her and said anxiously, “Miss Haynes, you’re finally back! Mr. Everett is here. He’s been waiting for you for almost an hour!” 

Joanna was shocked and speechless when she heard that! 

“Mr. Everett is in your office now. You’d better rush there at once!” 

Joanna frowned. “Who let him in?” 

Luna had a worried look on her face and said in a timid voice, “Miss Haynes, Mr. Everett wanted to force his way in. We

dared not stop him at all!” 

When Joanna heard this, she frowned and walked toward the office. 

Clatter! Joanna swung the office door open aggressively. 

In the office, Bruce Everett sat leisurely in Joanna’s seat with his two legs crossed on the desk. 

He was flipping through the contracts and documents on her desk in boredom. 

“Bruce Everett, why are you here?” 

Upon hearing this, Bruce put down the stack of documents in his hand and smiled at Joanna suggestively. “Can’t I come?” 

Joanna’s face clouded over and she said sternly. “Leave at once. You’re no longer a director of the company. Please don’t come to the office again.” 

Joanna, why do you have to be so distant with me?” 

“Last night, we were clearly very happy. Look at how you scratched my back. It’s covered in nail scratches…” 

Before he could finish, Joanna was completely enraged. “Stop talking and leave at once!” 

“Joanna!” Bruce immediately stood up and reached out to pull her into his arms. 

Upon seeing this, Joanna took a few steps back to evade his clutches. 

“Bruce, don’t behave in this manner anymore. Now please leave my office immediately.” 

Bruce paused for a few seconds and then he clicked his tongue. “Joanna, do you have to be so stubborn? I’ve already lowered myself to this level to win you back. Can’t you cut me some slack and meet me halfway?” 

When Joanna heard this, she became even more furious and speechless. She glared at Bruce icily and said, “Bruce, you really don’t have to win me back! It’s over between us. Please don’t harass me here in the future.” 

“You clearly still love me. Why are you so resistant to me? What did I do wrong to make you hate me so much?” Bruce took a few steps forward and frowned deeply. 

“Don’t say anything anymore. Get out now!” 

Bruce grabbed Joanna’s wrist and pulled her into his arms abruptly. Then, he pinned her firmly on the desk. 

“Joanna, what do I have to do before you are willing to forgive me? 

“I know I made a mistake in the past. Can we let bygones be bygones? Let us start over? 

“Let’s start from scratch. Give me a chance and give yourself a chance as well!” 

Joanna struggled helplessly, trying to break free from his restraint. “Enough talking already. I don’t want to listen to your nonsense anymore! The person I love isn’t you. Don’t pester me anymore.” 

Bruce gave a scornful snort. “I don’t believe you!” After saying that, he lowered his head and kissed her lips forcibly. 

“Oof…” Joanna opened her mouth and bit him viciously. 

Bruce was stunned momentarily and he raised his head. 

Slap! Joanna pushed him away and gave him a vicious slap! 

Bruce calmed down completely and his two eyes stared at Joanna with a sinister expression. 

“Bruce, I don’t love you anymore. Please stop showering me with your unwanted affection! 

“Last night, it was you who force yourself on me! All humans have physiological reactions. Please don’t take human’s instinctive behavior to be love!” 

“Joanna…” 

After saying that, Joanna turned around and stormed out of the office! 

If she continued to stay with Bruce, who knew if he would compel her again? It wasn’t as if he hadn’t done such things 

before! 

Joanna hurried out of the office. After Bruce came to his senses, he ran after her. 

When the employees at the reception saw this, they started gawking at the drama again. 

“Oh, my goodness! Why does this have to happen every once in a while?” 

“What are Mr. Everett and Miss Haynes thinking?” 

“If they want to get back together, then get back together amicably! If they don’t want to get back together, then just break up completely.” 

Chapter 363 

Just look at them causing such a ruckus now. I wonder what are they trying to do?” 

“That’s right! If they don’t make a clean break, things will only become more complicated. Who can tell what they’re thinking?” 

“Looks like Mr. Everett still can’t forget Miss Haynes!” 

*Hmph! Anyway, men are different from women. It’s very normal for men to be half–hearted. They will love this then that person! Women are different. If they really fall in love with a man, they will only love that man!” 

“Sigh! This major drama will keep playing all day long!” 

In the parking lot downstairs, Bruce hurriedly ran after Joanna. 

“Joanna, Joanna…” 

Joanna was already in the car. She stepped on the accelerator and drove away immediately.
