The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna) novel Chapter 563

Chapter 563 

It was five o’clock in the afternoon. 

Bruce could not concentrate at work because he was worried that Joanna would do something unpredictable again. Thus, as soon as it struck five, he left the office and headed home early. 

Sherane Bay Villa. 

“Good evening. Mr. Everett,” the servants greeted in unison. 

He walked into the house with a gloomy expression. 

Miranda was waiting in the living room. When he saw her, he asked with a long face, “Miranda, how is Joanna doing?” Miranda wore a mournful face as she replied sadly, “Joanna has been in the room and hasn’t come out yet!* 

He frowned after hearing that. “She didn’t come out for the entire day 

“That’s right!” 

“Has she eaten anything?” His brows furrowed even more now. 

He was very worried because when Joanna, a stubborn woman in his eyes, got angry, she would torment herself like crazy. Although he was mad at her, he had no intention to break ties with her completely. 

He wished she were smarter, capable of coaxing him a little more. He also longed for her to show concern for his feelings and pledge to cut all ties with Jaydon, erasing his contact information. 

By doing so, perhaps his anger would diminish, and a sense of tranquility could ultimately be restored. 

After all, all married couples quarreled. 

“I brought her some food, but she hasn’t eaten anything.” 

Upon hearing that, he took off his suit blazer and headed toward the master bedroom on the second floor. 

In the bedroom. 

Joanna remained in a state of daze, with every joint in her body throbbing in pain. 

Last night, she kept breaking into cold sweats and was exhausted to the point of collapse. She was drenched in so much sweat that she felt as if she had been pulled out of water 

She was experiencing fluctuating temperatures, resulting in a persistent high fever. 

“Bang!” Bruce forcefully pushed open the door. 

She knew he had returned. Instantly, she trembled in fear and quickly closed her eyes, pretending to be asleep. 

She wished he were dead. 

She also wished she could tear him apart. 

He walked to the bedside with a cold expression, then grabbed the corner of the blanket, yanking it open. “Stop playing dead and get up!” 

Deep down, he was worried about her. 

However, he had a sharp tongue and was accustomed to hurting people’s feelings. 

She still kept her eyes closed, ignoring him. 

He approached and reached out to touch her forehead, feeling that it was even hotter than in the morning. 

“Didn’t the doctor give you a shot to bring down the fever? Why is your temperature still so high?” 

She slightly turned her head away, paying no attention to him 

This instantly infuriated him again. 

Now, it was he who was angry. 

He found it unbelievable that she dared to give him a cold shoulder. 

“Joanna, remember, what happened last night was a punishment for you! If you anger me, I will punish with you harshly 

She weakly and angrily opened her eyes. “Bruce, you’re no human, you’re a devil…” 

Upon hearing that, he gripped her jaw, giving a cold laugh. “Yes, I am a devil. It’s you who turned me into a devil! It’s all your doing.” 

“Don’t touch me!” With one last burst of strength, she struggled fiercely 

His face darkened as he ordered, “Get up anul cat. You haven’t had anything since last night. What? Are you trying to play the victim with me? I’m telling you, I have no pity for you whatsoever.” 

As he spoke, he slid his arm around her neck and forcibly lifted her off the bed. 

Then, he brought over milk and oatmeal from the table. “Eat up!” 

She weakly glanced at him with her beautiful eyes, which were filled with complex emotions. 

While mountains and rivers could change, one’s nature was hard to change! 

She was truly afraid of a man like him-a man born cruel and unpredictable. 

*Eat up. During the contract period, everything about you belongs to me, so your body belongs to me as well. If I tell you to 

eat, you cat 

“Bruce, you’re insane… She glared at him with resentiment as tears welled up in her eyes immediately. 

Seeing her reaction, he became even more furious. “Joanna, don’t make me angry again! You’d better do as I say.”
