Chapter 716
“Are you blaming me for having my uncle as my guardian?” Bruce pouted and cast a pitiful look at Joanna, questioning her.
“No, how could I blame you?” Joanna said gently, offering comfort as she held his hand reassuringly.
No matter what, his brain was damaged.
Even if he did something wrong, she couldn’t blame him for it.
“Let’s take it one step at a time! For now, let’s go home first!” Joanna suggested.
Bruce’s lips curved into a peculiar smile as he reassured Joanna, “Yeah, don’t worry, my love. I won’t go to Uncle’s house. I’ll be by your side forever. Nobody can ever separate us, right?”
As Bruce spoke, he intimately hugged Joanna, expressing his affection and love for her in a heartfelt embrace.
However, despite the smile on his face, there was a hint of melancholy, hinting at underlying emotions or concerns.
Aria had not contacted him for many years.
Now that she had suddenly reached out to him after so many years, he felt unusually uneasy about the situation.
He was afraid that his peaceful life would be disrupted, and even more concerned that the people around him would be hurt in the process.
‘But…
He acknowledged that whatever was to come would eventually happen, and he had no way to prevent Aria’s arrival or the potential changes it might bring.

Joanna was also troubled and annoyed.
“Ouch, hiss…”
Bruce was shocked and asked with concern, “What’s wrong?”
Joanna subconsciously held her belly. “My belly hurts a little!”
“Is the baby kicking you?”
“Well, ouch, maybe…” Joanna’s face turned pale as she spoke.
For the past few days, her lower abdomen had been hurting from time to time.
Perhaps she was worried about too many things, or perhaps she was too tired.
In short, the already unstable fetus felt even more uncomfortable.

“Why don’t I take you to the hospital now?”
Joanna wanted to refuse, but her belly hurt again. “Yes! Alright…”
The child was already more than seven months old, almost eight months old.
During this period of time, she went to the hospital often.
Antenatal check-ups were even more essential.
“Carson, go straight to the hospital!”
“Okay.
Carson turned around and disappeared in the direction of the hospital.
Twenty minutes later.
At the hospital.
The attending doctor of the Gynecology Department performed a series of tests on Joanna.
“Doctor, how is it? Why do I feel pain in my lower abdomen these few days?”
The doctor’s expression turned solemn as they said, “There’s a slightly low level of amniotic fluid, and there are signs of premature labor.”
“Ah! Then what should we do?”
“I recommend that you stay in the hospital to protect the baby.”
“Again?” When Joanna heard this, she looked even more depressed!
In the past two to three years, she had spent most of her time in the hospital.
Now, seeing the hospital, she felt afraid and anxious.
If she wasn’t feeling unwell today and didn’t have to go for a prenatal checkup, she would have preferred not to step into the hospital again.
Joanna frowned and asked, “Doctor, can you prescribe some medicine? I’d rather go home.”
“Uh, I suggest you stay in the hospital.
“This way, if anything happens, we will have enough time for an emergency treatment.”
