Bruce looked up and happened to see Joanna too.
She was wearing a black below–the–knees skirt. The black heightened her delicate swan neck and collarbone.
Although the dress didn’t expose her bosoms, she still looked gorgeous and s*y.
It was the first time he had seen her in such revealing clothes.
Her entire collarbone and her calves were exposed.
Bruce frowned. He felt a surge of inexplicable anger.
What made him even angrier was that Jaydon was now intimately holding Joanna’s shoulders while eyeing her with adoration.
He could tell from Jaydon’s eyes that the latter really liked her.
The thought of them doing something unspeakable after finishing their meal irritated him.
Bruce was flooded with complicated emotions.
He coughed awkwardly and loosened his cravat with an icy cold expression.
“Bruce, what’s up?”
“Nothing. Go ahead and place the order.”
Roxanne’s face fell.
She had just ordered.
“Bruce, why do you seem so distracted?”
“No, I’m not!”
Bruce tried to contain his irritation but couldn’t keep his eyes off Joanna.
Roxanne finally realized that something was wrong.
She looked in the direction of Bruce’s gaze.
“Joanna!”
Roxanne gaped when she saw Joanna.
A surge of jealousy swept over her instantly.
“No wonder Bruce has such a reaction. So, he has seen Joanna,” she mused.
“Why don’t you say hello to her, Bruce?” Roxanne said sourly.
“What for? Let’s have a toast.”
Bruce raised the red wine glass in front of him.
Roxanne paused, picked up her glass, and gently touched it against his.
“Cheers…”
By the time Bruce finished speaking, he had gulped down the drink. The red wine glass was immediately emptied.
This made Roxanne even more furious, and her complexion clouded.

“Why is this bi tch everywhere? It seems like today’s atmosphere is going to be ruined again,” Roxanne thought.
Bruce poured himself another half glass of red wine and gulped it all down.
“Bruce, what are you doing? You’ll get drunk if you drink in such a hurry! You can’t drink Conti like
that!”
This bottle of Romance–Conti was worth a dozen thousand dollars.
People usually took a small sip and enjoyed the lingering taste.
However, Bruce was gulping down the alcohol like it was water.
Meanwhile, Jaydon and Joanna passed by Bruce and Roxanne and took a seat on the left side of the dining room.
They had actually booked another table which was in a better location. However, in order to avoid Bruce and Roxanne, they gave up the table.
