The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna) novel Chapter 742

Chapter 742 

“Why? Is it because of Aria?” 

Joanna remained silent. 

Aria was merely a trigger; the underlying cause was her deep-rooted lack of security. 

Bruce pondered for a few seconds, then took out his phone from his pocket. “I’ll call her right now and explain everything. I’ll ask her to move to a hotel.” 

He was about to make a call. 

Seeing this, Joanna frowned and grabbed his hand. “Bruce, don’t. Let’s not involve others in our relationship.” 

He pursed his lips, looking at her with despair. “Then tell me, what kind of security do you want? I’m willing to give up my life for you. I can give you everything I have, so why do you still feel insecure? Do I have to give you my life, and die in front of you, for you to believe that I love you?” 

She could not control her tears as she listened. 

Her heart was in turmoil at this point. 

He took a deep breath and said solemnly, “I know I’ve hurt you in the past, harming you physically and psychologically. You don’t trust me, and you think I will treat you like before. But Joanna, let me say it one last time, I swear that you’re my last woman. If you want security, all my assets can be transferred to you. I’ll call my lawyer right now to draft a prenuptial agreement. If we divorce, or if I ever do something to hurt you, all my assets, as well as the custody of the children, will be given to you. I’ll be left with nothing. What do you say?” 

She did not say anything. 

Although she needed money, she did not place too much importance on it. 

To her, money was just a number. 

Her mother had left her a trust fund, from which she could withdraw 40 thousand dollars every month. Therefore, even if she remained unemployed, she would be all right. 

Observing her silence, something seemed to strike him as he said earnestly, “You’re afraid that I’ll betray you or get involved with other women, right? Tomorrow, I’ll undergo a vasectomy. Apart from our four children, there’s no way I could father any more kids with other women. Will you finally believe me then?” 

Puff! 

She could not help but almost choke on her surprise and disbelief. She looked at him, partly shocked and partly speechless. 

A vasectomy. 

She was speechless. 

It seemed that in some wealthy families, such a measure was indeed taken. 

Some rich people’s wives were very open-minded. 

They did not bother about their husbands’ mistresses. In other words, their husbands’ extramarital affairs did not concern them as long as there were no bastard children involved. After all, such children could lead to the division of family assets, which would be the ultimate dealbreaker for these rich ladies. 

As a result, some women would request their husbands to undergo a vasectomy. After the procedure, the husbands could freely indulge in their desires. As long as there were no illegitimate children involved, it would merely be a matter of spending some money for pleasure. 

Before Joanna could react, Bruce had already stood up and said seriously, “I’ll have the doctor perform the surgery 

tomorrow…” 

She blinked, quickly grabbing his sleeve, saying, “Bruce, stop messing around!” 

His 

gaze turned stern. “Joann, I wish I could pull my heart out to show you. I spoke out of line today, and I shouldn’t have sided with Aria, let alone say negative things about you. I will learn from this and be cautious in the future. If it happens again, I’ll cut out my tongue. I was wrong today. You know, you are the best woman in the world. You are the most gentle, beautiful, and lovely. Even if you’re not gentle or virtuous, I should defend you, and protect you in front of others. I was wrong. It’s all my fault…” 

Her head was spinning from listening to his endless chatter. She could not stand it anymore and said, “Alright, enough already!” 

She had no idea that he had become so chatty. 

After all, he used to be very frugal when it came to speaking. 

 

“Honey, can you forgive me?” 

She let out a sigh. Now that he had made such assurances, there was no way she could remain angry with him. 

If she did not forgive him, he might actually go ahead with the vasectomy. 

She thought to herself. “Damn! You knew I would give in to this!” 

“Alright, I’ll forgive you one more time.” 

He smiled instantly. “You’re not allowed to break up with me so casually again. You know, such words can hurt our relationship. If there’s anything I’ve done wrong or if you want me to do something differently, just tell me.” 

Then, he dialed Mr. Jameson’s number without hesitation. 

Ring, ring, ring. 

“Hello, Mr. Everett.” 

“Mr. Jameson, come to the hospital immediately.” 

“Sure, Mr. Everett.” 

“Alright, then. See you soon.” 

Joanna wore a face of puzzlement after the call had ended. 

“Bruce, what do you want to do now?” 

He heaved a sigh, then said, “I asked him to come and arrange a prenuptial agreement for us and handle the remarriage procedures.” 

“Now?” She was taken aback. 

“Yes! Initially, I wanted to wait until you were past the postpartum period. We could then proceed with the remarriage and even have a grand wedding ceremony. But now, I think it’s better to handle the remarriage procedures sooner to avoid unnecessary troubles. You know, you might be coming up with all sorts of weird thoughts again.” 

She furrowed her brows, “Don’t…” 

“Why?” 

“I haven’t thought it through.” Her eyes flickered. 

Indeed, she had not thought it through. 

If she went through with the remarriage with him, she could not escape from him for the rest of her life. 

After all, she had no clue how long he could keep up his good behavior. 

He furrowed his brows. “What else is there to consider? You’ve already given birth to four children for me, so where else do you want to go? Who else can you marry but me?” 

Hearing this, she became irritated. “Are you saying that no one wants me now that I have given birth?” 

He quickly beamed a smile in embarrassment. “No, that’s not what I meant. I didn’t mean that. What I mean is, for the sake of our four children, we should give them a complete family.” 

She did not say more. 

She decided not to argue over this. 

He had a point, after all. Maybe the purpose of the remarriage was to provide their children with a complete family. 

Bruce found the time to call Aria again.
