Chapter 583
The doctor carefully sized up Joanna a few more times. Seeing that she was serious about her purchase, he continued relievedly, “Well, I do have this medicine here, but it’s not suitable for everyone.
“If you really want it, I can help you make it. However, it can’t be done until tomorrow.”
Joanna agreed without hesitation. “Okay.”
The doctor put the money away and said solemnly, “I’ll take 400 dollars as your deposit first. Come fetch it tomorrow!”
Joanna hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement. “Alright.”
“Please leave me your number. I’ll call you when the medicine is ready.”
“Uh, I lost my phone and didn’t have time to buy a new one. Why don’t you tell me when it will be ready tomorrow? I’ll come over directly”
“That’s fine too. This is traditional medicine and needs to be brewed. It might not be ready until tomorrow afternoon.” “Alright then! I’ll come over tomorrow at three in the afternoon to get the medicine.”
“That will do.”
Joanna didn’t say anything else and turned to leave the clinic.
Back at the homestay, Joanna sat in her room, feeling an indescribable feeling.
She was very worried about the children and could not bear to part with them.
But there was no way she could put up with that life anymore.
If she stayed with Bruce, she would die of depression and torture.
Therefore, she had no choice but to leave. She did not have to worry about the children suffering. Bruce had hired many servants and professional childcare teachers to care for them.
Even if she wasn’t around, the children would be well taken care of.
In the evening, Bruce returned home to Sherane Bay Villa, exhausted.
The bodyguards also returned one after another. “Good evening, Mr. Everett.”
“Have you found her?”
“Not yet.”
“A bunch of worthless trash!
“There are so many of you looking for a single person! Is it really so difficult?”
The group of bodyguards lowered their heads in silence.
They had tried everything they could to find Joanna. However, Greyport was so big that it was not easy to find someone.
Seeing the bodyguards’ dejected expressions, Bruce became even angrier. “Continue searching. If you still can’t find her, don’t come back. Consider yourselves fired!”
“Yes, yes!” the bodyguards said obsequiously. They could only brace themselves to continue searching.
The Everett family had already mobilized nearly 200 bodyguards.
Although they tried their best to keep this hush-hush, news about Joanna’s escape had leaked.
This was especially evident in the hospital.
News had spread from the doctors and nurses that Joanna Haynes had escaped.
A few nurses gathered around the nurses’ desk to gossip. “Tsk, tsk. Joanna Haynes doesn’t know how lucky she is, does she?
She had everything she could ask for. Why did she run away for no reason?”
Another nurse with bangs said indignantly, “That’s right. Mr. Everett was so good to her that he was willing to go to the ends of the world for her. Why did she ditch him and make a run for it?”
“Who knows? She’s probably just throwing another tantrum.”
“I can’t figure out what she’s thinking. If I were her, I would stick to Mr. Everett like a piece of gum!”
As she spoke, the young nurse’s eyes sparkled. In a voice trembling with emotions, she said, “Mr. Everett is handsome and rich. Besides, he’s still so young. How good would it be if he liked me…”
An older nurse could not help but snort. “You can’t just look at the surface. Life in a wealthy family is very stressful.
Joanna Haynes’s life might seem glamorous, but you don’t know what goes on behind the scenes or how much bitterness she has to bear. Besides, those rich men have strange kinks! I wonder how their wives put up with their perverted behavior…”
“That’s right, that’s right. Ordinary people like us can’t imagine what it’s like. Ordinary women can’t withstand that kind of behavior.
The young nurse with bangs didn’t seem to care. “Tsk, how pervertic can it get? It’s all just sex, right? Besides, Mr. Everett doesn’t look like a man with heavy tastes. Even if he has heavy tastes. I’ll sacrifice myself!”
“That’s hard to say. The more handsome a man is, the more twisted his mind is.”
Soon, news of Joanna Haynes’s disappearance had spread like wildfire.
The media found out about Joanna Haynes’s disappearance through a mysterious informant.
By the end of the day, news of her escape had already been released online.
“Bruce Everett left dejected as pregnant ex-wife escapes”
“You run, I chase… you can’t escape even if you have wings! Joanna Haynes deliberately disappears.”
“Bruce Everett’s relationship with ex-wife crumbles completely. Joanna Haynes possibly abandoned.”
As soon as the news was released, the Internet exploded again, and the entire city joined in to watch the show.
“What’s going on between Mr. Everett and his ex-wife? Why is there so much news every other day? I hear so much about their melodramatic lives that I’m tired of watching them.”
“That’s right! We can’t have a moment of peace. I thought they were getting along, and then one is running away! What are they up to now?”
“If they want to remarry, they should remarry as soon as possible. But if they want to break up, they should do it immediately! If not, their relationship status is so unclear. It’s tiring for the onlookers.”
“You don’t understand, do you? This is a ploy.”
“What ploy?”
“Didn’t you notice? Every time drama happens between the Everett and Haynes Groups… it becomes so popular that there’s no need for advertisement. Do you know how much advertising costs the Everett Group can save annually?”
“Tsk, Bruce is already the richest man. The Everett Group is so famous. Why would he still need to advertise?”
“In this era, social media is king, and popularity can earn you money. If you don’t understand, you should educate yourself!” Some self-righteous netizens distorted the truth.
Meanwhile, at the Garcia Group, Jennie Garcia also quickly learned that Joanna was missing.
After knowing that Joanna was missing, a flame of hope lit up in her heart again.
