The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna) novel Chapter 818

Chapter 818 

Bruce had double vision. He shook his head hard, only to barely see everything in front of him. 

“Cough! Cough! The syringe is here.” 

Due to the virus in his body, his hand began to tremble violently again. The syringe was only 3.2 feet meters away from his hand, but he was too weak to get to his feet. 

At this moment, his head was filled with images of Joanna and the children. His strong desire to survive forced him to squirm toward the syringe bit by bit. “I can’t die here. I-I must go back home.” 

He tried to move closer and closer. 

He stretched his arm as far as it would go, and his fingertips could already touch the syringe. 

Yet, Aria abruptly appeared like a ghost. 

Then, she bent down mechanically and picked up the syringe. 

Bruce was taken aback and his eyes darkened. He no longer had the strength to raise his head. 

Aria’s forehead was still bleeding, the blood dyeing half of her face red. 

Aria looked straight at Bruce, like a zombie that had lost its soul. There was no resentment or any other emotion in her eyes. 

Bruce let out a dry cough. There was a hint of despair in his voice. “Aria, hand it to me. Hurry and hand it to me!” 

He regretted showing mercy to Aria earlier. 

He should have just killed her. 

Aria did not reply. Instead, she picked up the syringe and found a potent antibiotic in the pile of medicine. 

Then, she silently injected herself with it. 

This potent antibiotic was specially used for terminally ill patients. It could quickly stimulate the final potential of the human body and was also an effective painkiller. 

Aria injected this potent antibiotic daily to maintain her physical fitness. However, it was equivalent to over-drafting the last of her body’s vitality. 

Once the antibiotic no longer took effect, it would accelerate the failure of various organs. Therefore, it could only be used to prolong the life of seriously ill patients. 

Aria quickly recovered her stamina and energy after the injection. 

“Aria, don’t do this again!” Bruce gasped and lay on the ground weakly. 

Aria let out a weird laugh. “Ha, Bruce, I knew you were lying to me. 

“As I said, if you’re willing to cooperate with me and accompany me through the final stage of my life, I’ll inject you with the third serum. 

“If you don’t, I can only make you die with me.” 

After that, Aria’s eyes turned cold as she glared daggers at Bruce. 

“You crazy woman! I really misjudged you. I really shouldn’t have shown mercy to you just now.” 

Bruce gritted his teeth, angry and resentful. 

He really shouldn’t have been merciful earlier. 

He should have killed Aria decisively to prevent future troubles. 

Aria had already lost her rationality, and Bruce could no longer communicate with her with a normal mind. 

Aria’s gaze suddenly softened. She squatted down and gently stroked his bare back. “Bruce, as long as you behave, I’ll keep your life. 

“As long as you’re willing to cooperate with my hypnosis, I’ll inject this serum into you.” As Aria spoke, she snatched the serum from Bruce’s hand. 

Then, she waved the syringe in her hand smugly in front of him. 

“If you don’t cooperate with me, I’ll throw the serum into the toilet now. 

“You know you wouldn’t even survive a week without it.” 

When Bruce heard this, he was so angry that veins stood out on his temples. “Aria, you’re really detestable. I hate your guts.” 

“Ha! I’m just detestable. Sorry for letting you down!” 

Aria ignored the blood on her forehead and continued to look at Bruce infatuatedly. 

“Bruce, look at you. You’re covered in dust. Can I help you take a shower?” 

“Don’t touch me. Hurry up and leave me alone!” Bruce took a deep breath and resisted her touch. 

However, the more he resisted, the more excitedly Aria laughed. 

As if she was playing with a rare treasure, she gently wiped the dust off Bruce’s body. 

“Bruce, you’re really the most perfect man. 

“And I’m also perfect.” 

As Aria spoke, a trace of resentment and confusion appeared in her eyes. “Why are you so resistant to me? Is it because I’m not beautiful enough? 

“Or do you think I’m not hot enough?” 

Very few men in the world could resist the charm of a beautiful and capable woman like Aria. 

She really couldn’t understand why Bruce rejected her. After all, when a man slept with a woman, only the woman would get the short end. 

Besides, Aria was such a beautiful and smart woman. She was willing to give everything she had to him, and she wondered why he refused to accept her. 

“Aria, you don’t understand love at all. 

“Your so-called love is just your possessiveness. You don’t love me at all. You can’t stand the fact that I got over you first. That’s why you feel indignant and frustrated,” Bruce replied coldly, feeling disgusted. 

Joanna had said this sentence to Bruce before. 

Now, he said it to Aria word for word. 

When Aria heard this, she looked at Bruce thoughtfully. 

Perhaps, she was just indeed indignant. 

However, her life was coming to an end. She no longer wanted to think about right or wrong. 

“Whatever you say.
