The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna) novel Chapter 838

Chapter 838 

Bruce was slightly obsessed with cleanliness and would never sleep without taking a shower. 

“Honey, I’m really tired today. As he spoke, Bruce closed his eyes in exhaustion. 

Seeing this, Joanna was shocked. 

“What was wrong with this guy today? 

“Why was he getting so tired after a short trip?” she wondered. 

However, seeing how tired he was, Joanna did not urge him to take a shower. 

Bruce closed his eyes to rest, but his brain was working rapidly. 

He was really a little uneasy now. 

Aria was too smart. When such a woman became paranoid, it was really too scary. 

The next day. 

Eight o’clock in the morning. 

Bruce was officially going back to work in the group. 

He got up on time. After washing up, he changed into a dark blue suit and a pure-colored tie. 

His hair was styled meticulously, with a bit of hair gel to hold it in place. After shaving, he returned to his previous noble and elegant appearance, looking like an abstinent business elite. 

“Honey I’m going to work today. 

“Be good at the hospital. I’ll come back to accompany you tonight.” 

“Okay, be careful on the road,” Joanna said with concern. 

Bruce smiled dotingly and leaned in front of her. “Give me a kiss.” 

“You’re annoying. Be serious.” 

Bruce’s handsome face tensed up. “What’s wrong with a kiss? Hurry up.” 

Joanna laughed angrily and kissed Bruce on the cheek. 

Bruce smiled and kissed Joanna’s forehead, cheeks, and lips. 

If not for the fact that she was seriously injured now, he really wanted to… 

“Pity. 

“I was probably going to endure another period of asceticism,” said he inwardly. 

“Be good!” 

“Be careful on the road!” 

“Got it.” 

On the way to work. 

Bruce had a malicious look on his face. His expression was as cold as ice that had lasted for thousands of years. 

“Darcy, check on Aria’s whereabouts. 

“If she’s dead, that’s for the best. If she’s not dead, I’m afraid there’s still trouble…” 

When Darcy heard this, he replied solemnly, “Will do, Mr. Everett.” 

Ten minutes later. 

The driver drove to Everett Group. 

“Mr. Everett, we’re at the company.” 

When the security guard at the door saw that it was Bruce’s car, he hurriedly went forward to open the door. 

“Good morning, Mr. Everett.” 

Bruce got out of the car expressionlessly. 

The bodyguards quickly got out of the car and followed Bruce into the company. 

The receptionists were originally busy, but they were all surprised when they saw Mr. Everett. They hurriedly greeted him 

respectfully, “Good morning, Mr. Everett.” 

Bruce nodded slightly and walked toward the elevator. 

“Oh my god, why did Mr. Everett suddenly come back to work today?” 

“That’s right! Didn’t they say that Mr. Everett was seriously ill? Why does it look like he’s not sick at all?” 

“Those are all rumors. Look at Mr. Everett. Isn’t he fine?” 

“That’s great…” 

The beautiful customer service managers at the front desk were even more excited and happy. 

Even though they knew that Bruce wouldn’t like them, they were still very happy to see him every day. 

On the other side… 

Darcy quickly called Leo to ask about Aria’s whereabouts. 

In the afternoon, Darcy already had a general update on Aria. 

In the office. 

Bruce was dealing with the accumulated work. 

Darcy knocked on the door and entered. 

“Mr. Everett.” 

Bruce put down the document in his hand and asked with a frown, “How is it? Did you find out anything?” 

“Mr. Everett, Aria’s basic information has been investigated,” Darcy said in a deep voice. 

“What’s the situation?” 

Darcy looked gloomy. “I called her assistant, Leo. 

“Leo said that Aria had been removed from the research institute for violating the research institute’s discipline. 

“She’s no longer a researcher at the research institute. Then I called the hospital and asked her attending doctor. 

“It seems that she only stayed in the hospital for three days before leaving. Moreover, her attending doctor said that her brain cancer was a misdiagnosis.” 

“What? Misdiagnosis?” Bruce was utterly dumbstruck. He couldn’t believe his ears. 

“Yes, according to the news from the hospital. Aria has a pituitary osteoma. The symptoms of this disease are very similar to 

brain cancer. 

“But the mortality rate isn’t that high. She’s been misdiagnosed before.” 

When Bruce heard that, he was filled with anger. His hawk-like eyes gleamed with a cold light as he said, “So you’re telling me Aria Bridges didn’t actually have brain cancer?” 

“Yes, just a brain disease very similar to brain cancer.” 

When Bruce heard this, he took a deep breath, and his expression changed constantly. 

The news made him even more worried. 

No wonder Aria kept delaying the surgery. She must have known that she had been misdiagnosed. 

“Continue the investigation. Even if she’s hiding in outer space, we have to find her.” 

“Will do! Mr. Everett.” 

“You can leave now.” 

Darcy did not say anything else. He turned around and left the office. 

Half past five in the afternoon. 

Bruce left the company early and came to the hospital to accompany Joanna. 

In the ward. 

“Honey, I’m back.” 

“Why are you off work so early?” Joanna asked casually. 

“I was in a hurry to come back for you. I was afraid that you would be bored, so I came back early to accompany you.” 

Joanna smiled gently. 

Bruce immediately took off his suit and loosened his tie. 

He was only wearing a white shirt. 

Three buttons on his shirt were unbuttoned, revealing his Adam’s apple and part of his chest. He looked casual and unrestrained… with a hint of a’mature man’s seductiveness.
