Chapter 487
When Zachary heard this, he was so angry that his chest tightened. “What do you mean by that?”
“Nothing!”
Zachary took a deep breath, his frustration building up. As one of the most admired and envied scions of Greyport, who wouldn’t show him respect upon meeting him?
Zachary’s patience grew thin as Roxanne continued to trample upon his pride.
However, considering her earlier outburst, Zachary managed to restrain himself and held back his anger.
Roxanne glanced at Zachary’s gloomy face and realized that her words had gone too far. “Alright, don’t be angry. I was just joking just now. Why are you so serious?
“So what if Bruce is powerful? His time will soon come to an end!”
Zachary pursed his lips and leaned against the stool in frustration.
Seeing that he was still angry, Roxanne quickly sat on his lap again.
“Hey, don’t be angry! How about… doing something enjoyable?” Roxanne said enticingly as she leaned into his shirt, attempting to flirt.
Although she was unwilling to do that with him, she despised his weak body.
After all, it was better than having nothing at all.
Zachary was distraught. How could he be in the mood to think about that? He pushed Roxanne away. “Roxanne… I–I’m not interested now!”
Roxanne’s face darkened. “Hmph, do you not love me anymore?
“You’re always the one who takes the initiative, but now that I’m making a move, you show no interest? What exactly do you mean by that?”
“No, I’m really… Besides, we’re in the hospital. What if someone sees us?” Zachary stammered, looking flustered!
After seeing her outburst, Zachary knew her true color. He no longer had the mood for that. Roxanne glared at him fiercely. “I want it now!” As she spoke, Roxanne took off his clothes.
Zachary remained unresponsive. He wore a disillusioned expression, seemingly disinterested, as he allowed her to fuss around without any reciprocation.
After a while, Roxanne, feeling increasingly frustrated, became utterly disappointed as her attempts were met with indifference.
“Hmph, what a piece of trash!” Roxanne stood up with a dark expression. She tidied up her clothes and left in her high heels!
After Roxanne left, Zachary slumped on a chair in the corridor. He sighed and was troubled about how to bring the situation to a close!
He started to regret it!
He shouldn’t have messed around with Roxanne, let alone listened to her instigation and

against Bruce. It was useless to regret now. He couldn’t get rid of her even if he wanted to.
Meanwhile, Bruce and Joanna left the hospital together.
In the car, Bruce’s arm remained draped over Joanna’s shoulder, his gaze filled with adoration as he couldn’t seem to take his eyes off her.
His gazing caused Joanna to feel a prickling sensation all over. “Can you not look at me like that? It’s as if you’re looking at a monster!”
“Darling, I love looking at you like this! I’ve always been watching you, imprinting your image deep into my heart.”
Joanna was speechless, but she did not want to refute it!
Every word he said to her now felt like he was giving his last words.
She felt terrible, but she didn’t know what to do.
“It’s almost Christmas!”
“Yeah! It’s already the 20th today. It’ll be Christmas in five days,” Bruce said as he subconsciously took out a cigarette from his pocket.
Just as he was about to light it up, he remembered that Joanna hated him smoking, so he held it in.
“You can smoke if you want!”
“Forget it. It’s not good for you to inhale second–hand smoke.”
As Bruce spoke, he continued to gaze at Roxanne’s abdomen. “Hmm, why is no news yet?”
“What?”
Bruce teased, “What do you think?”
Joanna then glared at him in frustration. “We already have three children. We won’t have any more!”
“Who says that? I want three more.”
“Three more? Do you think I’m a physiological machine?”
“Even having just one would be fine! When Davian, Irvin, and Lilia were born, I wasn’t by their side. I didn’t even get to see them as babies, so there is still some regret!”
“Let’s not talk about this anymore. It’s all in the past!”
“Do you still hate me?”
