The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna) novel Chapter 961

Chapter 961 

Joanna choked. 

What kind of logic was this? 

“Stop fooling around. I’m very tired today.” 

A hint of tenderness appeared in Bruce’s eyes. “Honey, my beloved wife. Let’s have another daughter.” 

When Joanna heard this, she became angry. “The doctor already said that I can’t get pregnant again for three years. Devin is only a few months old…” 

Before she could finish her words, Bruce hugged her lovingly. “I didn’t say that we’ll have a kid now. I’m just talking about the future.” 

“We’ll talk about it in the future.” Joanna rolled her eyes at him. 

She had already given birth to four children. She really did not want to give birth 

anymore. 

“Hmmm… How about let me practice making a daughter?” Bruce said as he bent down and scooped her in his arms. 

“You’re so annoying. Ah… You’re so annoying…” 

“Honey, I love you.” Bruce kissed Joanna on the forehead and carried her into the bathroom. 

Joanna was exhausted. 

However, she could not withstand his passion. Soon, she was under his control. 

Her whole body was controlled and dominated by him… 

The next day, Joanna slept until after ten o’clock before waking up slowly. 

Outside the courtyard, Lilia was already awake and watering the flowers on the lawn. 

There were many rare and exquisite flowers in the large garden. The little girl had personally planted roses. 

It was almost October, and the roses were still in full bloom. 

It wasn’t surprising given that Greyport was a tropical city and flowers bloomed all year round. 

“My baby girl, what are you doing?” Joanna was wearing white silk pajamas as she walked toward her daughter lazily. 

“Good morning, Mommy.” 

“Morning, my girl. 

“Where are your brothers?” 

“They’ve already gone to school. When my legs recover, I’ll also go to school.”

“Of course, you will. The semester just started, so there’s no need to pressure yourself.” Joanna came to her daughter’s side and smiled as she hugged her tightly. Lilia blinked and giggled. “Mommy, why are you sleeping so much these days? 

“You used to get up before 7:30 in the morning.” 

Joanna was speechless. 

Indeed, she found herself getting more sleep these days, probably because she had no pressure. In addition, Bruce was really… 

Naturally, her sleep also improved. 

“Where’s Daddy?” 

“Daddy went to work.” 

“Okay.” 

Joanna took out her phone and called Bruce. 

This damn guy, he didn’t even tell her when he went to work. 

Beep, beep, beep… 

Bruce answered the phone call and said in a sweet voice, “Hello, my darling wife…” 

“Are you at work?” 

Bruce smiled. “Yes, darling. There was an emergency at the company that required my attention.” 

“What time will you get off work then?” 

Bruce paused for a few seconds and looked down at his watch. “Uh, I should be done around five in the afternoon. Be good at home and call me if anything happens.” 

“Oh, okay.” 

“See you later then!”. 

After hanging up the phone call, Bruce grinned. 

He didn’t go to work but headed straight to Venturas. 

Today, there was something big to do. 

It was about the lottery council. 

Luxury cars were parked at the entrance of the council. 

Dozens of security guards lined up with solemn expressions guarding the walkway. The doormen promptly stepped forward to open the door for the esteemed guests. 

The people who got out of the cars were all world-famous tycoons from Greyport and Venturas. Outside the security line, countless media reporters had been 

waiting for a long time. 

Flash! Flash!

“Who will be the winner of today’s lottery certificate of authorization? I heard that the Everett Group has also joined the bidding this year. I wonder if it will be this year’s winner.” 

“How is that possible? The Grimm Group is the largest lottery industry leader in Venturas, and it has the upper hand in every aspect of comparison.” 

“There’s just no way. The Everett Group has never been involved in the lottery industry. It definitely won’t be chosen…” 

An elongated Rolls-Royce came to a stop at the entrance of the council. 

“Mr. Everett is here. Mr. Everett is here.” 

Flash! Flash! 

The media reporters swarmed forward even before Bruce could step out of the 

car. 

The doormen quickly stepped forward and greeted Bruce respectfully. “Welcome, Mr. Everett.” 

As soon as the car door was opened, a pair of long legs gracefully stepped out of the car. Bruce’s hair was neatly styled back and there was a hint of ruffianism in his noble and steady manner. His well-tailored suit accentuated his domineering and powerful aura. 

Today, he was here to participate in the auction of the lottery council. 

At the entrance of the council, Bruce and Cassius met unexpectedly. 

They were all here to bid for the certificate of authorization of the lottery industry and were the two most powerful groups. 

The winner would be decided today. 

“Mr. Everett, I didn’t expect you to be so interested in the lottery industry,” Cassius said to Bruce with a condescending smile. 

Among the people who came today, Bruce was his fiercest competitor. 

But he wasn’t too worried. Although the Everett Group was very powerful, it lacked a strong foothold in the lottery industry. 

What was more, he had already made preparations a year in advance. If everything went smoothly, the certificate of authorization would definitely be his. Bruce stood straight back, exuding the powerful aura of a king. He replied calmly, “Of course, I’m interested in all profitable industries.” 

Cassius laughed. “The lottery industry is not something that anyone can handle. People who don’t know the market situation here have lost a lot…” Cassius looked at Bruce resentfully. 

Bruce raised his eyebrows and replied with a faint smile, “I like challenges. The more challenging the industry, the more it intrigues me.” 

Cassius coughed when he heard that. The fake smile on his face widened. “Then

let’s wait and see.” 

“Good luck.” Bruce could no longer be bothered to exchange pleasantries with Cassius. He walked toward the venue with a calm and confident expression. The lottery council’s review and approval were very strict. 

Companies that wanted to participate in bidding for the lottery industry certificate of authorization must first have very strong funds. These companies were also required to continuously meet tax, profitability, and reputation standards for ten years in a row. 

Only those with the above qualifications had a chance to be selected. 

Of course, even if one participated in the election, there was a high chance that one would fail. 

Due to the unique nature of the lottery industry and its huge profits, it could be viewed to be highly profitable. 

If one were greedy or broke the rules, it would have a very bad social impact. Therefore, the lottery council was highly cautious. 

Grimm Group obtained the certificate of authorization for three consecutive sessions.
