The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna) novel Chapter 424

 

“Host everything today. I take it back bit by bit 

“Roxy, where are you going to live from now on?” 

Roxanne’s eyes darkened as she replied weakly. Tll continue staying at home! 

“Can you 

do it alone?” 

“No problem!” 

Bruce did not want to add to their anxiety “Let’s go! Let’s go take a look at Lilia” 

“Lilia is in shock. The doctor said that she needs a psychiatrist for psychological counseling” 

“Okay” 

Children’s hospital. 

Lilia! 

“Daddy, Mommy… Lilia lay weakly on the hospital bed. 

She is now psychologically affected. Every night, she couldn’t help but have nightmares. 

She was so scared that she would shout and scream the whole day. She could not have anyone leave her side. 

“Lilia, it’s all Mommy’s fault for not protecting you properly!” 

“Joanna, don’t burden yourself with excessive guilt. You have done well.” 

“Thank God for not taking you and Lilia away from me. I can’t imagine what I would be like if I lost you.” 

When Joanna heard this, her eyes darkened, and she kept silent. 

Joanna, promise me you won’t do such stupid things again!” 

“From now on, I won’t allow you to leave my sight! Wherever you go, I will accompany you. I am no longer afraid to endure 

such fear.”

Chapter 424 

Chapter 424 

Ten days later. 

Joanna, Roxanne, and Derick held Shaun’s funeral. 

Although Ryan was killed by the police, Roxanne and Derick still arranged a tombstone for him and buried him hastily. 

Elizabeth Cemetery! 

It was drizzling, and the weather had plummeted. The temperature was only about eight degrees. For the southern region, this was a very low temperature. 

In addition to Joanna and her siblings, some of Shaun’s friends and acquaintances attended the funeral. 

Shaun’s ashes had already been buried. 

In front of the tombstone, Joanna was dressed in black with a white hat on her head. She looked sad as she bowed deeply three times. “Father, have a safe journey!” 

Roxanne and Derick were dressed similarly, and Roxanne was crying inconsolably. She said, “Dad, I hope you can rest in peace in the realm beyond!” 

There were wreaths and various offerings arranged clearly in front of the tombstone. 

After the funeral ended, the guests left one after another. 

Joanna left the cemetery with a heavy heart. 

They had just walked out of the cemetery. 

A large group of reporters rushed over like a tide. 

“Miss Haynes, how are you feeling right now?” 

“Miss Haynes, regarding Ryan Haynes’s kidnapping of you and your daughter, can you tell us how it happened?” 

“May I ask if you and Mr. Everett have remarried? Have you and Mr. Grimm broken up completely? Has Mr. Grimm passed the critical period?” 

Joanna’s face darkened. Im sorry, I won’t be interviewed.” 

“Make way!” A large number of bodyguards quickly surrounded Joanna. 

“Miss Haynes, please say a few words!” 

Click! Click! 

The reporters frantically snapped photos of her. 

Joanna was extremely flustered. Under the escort of her bodyguards, she hurriedly walked toward the parking lot. 

Today, Bruce attended the funeral. But he did not stand with Joanna nor as a son–in–law. He came simply as a regular guest to pay his respects. 

After Joanna left. 

Roxanne and Derick also walked out of the cemetery. 

Reporters swarmed towards Roxanne when they saw her, and one of them quickly asked, “Miss Roxanne, would you be willing to accept an interview?” 

“May I ask how you feel right now? Can you say a few words?” 

Roxanne gasped and said with a dark expression, “No comments!” 

“Please say something! I heard that you’ve been in a mental hospital for ten months. Have you recovered?” 

“What do you think about your sister getting back with Mr. Everett? Will you give them your blessings? Are you still in love with Mr. Everett?” 

“Theard that you’ve removed your uterus and won’t be able to conceive anymore. Is that true?” 

The reporters‘ words were sharp like knives. The questions they raised were harsh and aimed at Roxanne’s sore spot. 

Roxanne’s face turned pale, and her lips trembled. She could barely control her emotions. 

Derick quickly blocked the cameras and shielded her behind him. “Everyone, step back. Don’t ask such boring questions” 

“Roxy, let’s go 

Chapter 424 

Although the two had assistants around them, they could not withstand the reporters‘ bombardment and could only escape. 

A large group of reporters chased after them. 

Everyone wanted to interview them. Even if they could take a few photos, it would be enough to cause a sensation in the city. 

Because of the kidnapping case, Joanna was placed at the center of attention. Recently, everyone has been reporting on this 

matter. 

In the parking lot. 

The bodyguard opened the door of the Rolls–Royce and said respectfully, “Miss Haynes, please get in.” 

Joanna got into the car with a dark expression. She was in a bad mood. 

In the car. 

Bruce was already waiting in the car. When he saw Joanna entering, he quickly handed her a cup of hot water and a hot 

towel. 

“Are you cold? Have a cup of hot water!” 

Joanna took the hot towel and wiped the rain from her face and neck. Her face was pale, and her eyes were extremely red. 

She looked frail and tired. 

“Sigh…” 

Bruce’s heart ached. “My condolences! The dead can’t be revived. It’s useless to be sad.” 

Joanna didn’t say anything, but her heart felt very uncomfortable. 

Although her father had never doted on her or given her fatherly love, he was still her biological father. 

As long as her father is alive, she still has a father. 

However, now that her father was dead, she would become an orphan. Seeing her sorrowful expression, Bruce stretched out his arm and gently hugged her shoulder! 

Joanna closed her eyes and leaned on his shoulder tiredly. 

The car slowly drove out of the cemetery. 

Sherane Bay Villa! 

When they got home, the servants were already at the door with a brazier and pomelo water. 

Joanna was stunned. 

The butler, Gael, quickly explained, “After all, coming back from the cemetery, one is bound to be affected by negative energy. Stepping over a brazier and sprinkling some pomelo water could help to ward off the negative energy.” Joanna’s eyes darkened, but she did not object. 

She stepped over the brazier, and the servants sprinkled the pomelo water on her. Similarly, Bruce stepped over the brazier and sprinkled some pomelo water on himself. 

“It’s been a long day. You must be tired.” 

“Quickly take a hot shower and rest!” 

“Okay, Joanna responded faintly.. 

She changed her clothes and took a shower. Then, she lay on the bed to rest. 

Perhaps because she was too tired, she fell into a deep sleep after lying down for a while. 

In a daze, she began to have nightmares. 

While dreaming, she saw the badly mutilated Ryan and the other two kidnappers. 

She then saw her father lying on the hospital bed, glaring at her with turbid and fierce eyes. They took turns tearing her apart and strangling her! 

“Ah!” Joanna was having a nightmare. 

She gritted her teeth and trembled all over. Unfortunately, her mind was exceptionally clear, but she could not wake up no 

matter what 

Chapter 424 

After struggling for a long time, Joanna still could not wake up. 

Fortunately, Bruce was right beside her. When he realized that something was wrong with Joanna, he quickly reached out. and patted her Joanna, what’s wrong? Wake up!” 

“Wake up. Are you having a nightmare? Bruce shook her a few more times. 

“Ah…” Joanna woke up from her nightmare. Her heart was pounding, and she was still in fear. 

“That’s scary!” Joanna subconsciously shrank into Bruce’s arms and panted uncontrollably. 

Bruce quickly comforted her. “What’s wrong? Did you have a nightmare?” 

Joanna broke out in a cold sweat as if she had just returned from the underworld. 

“I just dreamed of my father and Ryan… Joanna gasped, still in a state of terror. 

“It’s okay, it’s okay. It’s just a nightmare. Don’t be afraid.”
