Chapter 337
Joanna took a deep breath. Her heart ached.
“Bruce, 1 sincerely wish you happiness! But I hope you can bring the children back!
“You can’t stop me from seeing the children! That’s selfish”
“I told you, the children won’t be coming back anytime soon!” Bruce replied coldly.
He wanted to explain the reason!
But thinking about it, there was nothing to explain!
At this point, Joanna had become convinced that he had hidden motives behind his words and actions. Even if he
was to die, she probably woulnd’t cry for him.
When Joanna heard this, she trembled with anger. “How could you do this?
“Bruce, I want the children’s custody back!”
“That’s impossible. No matter what, the children won’t live with you.”
Joanna’s eyes instantly turned red as she glared at Bruce with hatred!
Bruce looked at her coldly without any expression!
But he was really sad!
He thought that he could control everything, but only now did he realize that in the face of fate, everyone had to
surrender.
Martha pulled on Bruce’s arm, urging him, “Bruce, don’t say too much to her. Let’s go back.”
Jaydon also chimed in, hastily advising Joanna, “Joann, don’t talk with him. Let me take you back to the ward!”
“Cough, cough!” Joanna emitted a stifled cough, while droplets of blood trickled from her nose. Her countenance
turned as pallid as paper.
Joann, are you alright?”
“Im alright. It’s just a slight ache in my heart…” Joanna’s words trailed off as her head tilted, and in an instant, she
lost
consciousness.
Her nose was bleeding non–stop, and her white hospital gown was dyed red.
She had already held on for too long!
The tense nerves in his brain had already reached their limit. Then, they finally broke!
She suffered from severe depression, unable to regulate her emotions without the aid of medication.
“Joann Joann!” Jaydon shouted anxiously and tried to stand up from the wheelchair.
Miranda was filled with terror as she swiftly moved forward to assist Joanna. “Joann!” she exclaimed with concern.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing this, Bruce’s heart jumped to his throat. “Joanna, what’s wrong?”
As he spoke, he rushed forward and picked Joanna up from the wheelchair!
“Bruce, put her down!” Jaydon said helplessly, feeling powerless and anxious.
Bruce had no time for him. He carried Joanna and hurried into the ward!
“Doctor, please come quickly! The patient has lost consciousness!” Bruce urgently called out, seeking immediate
medical
assistance.
When the doctors and nurses heard the shout, they hurriedly came over to take a look!
“The patient is experiencing severe nasal bleeding. Quickly help her lie on their side to prevent any blockage of the
respiratory tract!”
When Bruce heard this, he hurriedly placed Joanna on the bed and laid her on her side!
“Remove the patient’s hospital gown and ensure that her breathing remains unobstructed…”
The doctor quickly inserted an electrocardiogram into Joanna. Then, he took her blood pressure and drew her blood
for testing!
“Jpanna, you must hold on!”
The servant pushed Jaydon and rushed to the ward! At this moment, Jaydon felt helpless and angry!
Joanna was his girlfriend now. When she was in danger, he did not have the ability to protect her! He could not even
hug

“All of you, leave the ward first. We need to treat the patient!”
“Oh, okay!” Brice and Jaydon were chased out of the ward again.
Outside the ward!
Bruce’s face was gloomy and he looked dispirited!
Jaydon’s face was also gloomy. Other than worrying about Joanna, he hated Bruce even more!
The air pressure in the entire corridor seemed to have dropped to the freezing point. It was so heavy that it was
suffocating!
Miranda was also crying. “What should we do? Why is Joann having an attack again?”
“Miranda, what do you mean by that? Has Joanna had a similar illness before?” Bruce looked at Miranda in shock.
“Joann’s depression was getting better.”
“depression?” Bruce frowned.
“When did Joanna have depression?”
Miranda was stunned.
“You’ve been with Joanna for so long. You should know better than anyone when she had depression!
“Joann has been depression since sh was very young! However, it wasn’t serious at that time!
“But since six years ago, Joann’s depression got worse. She has to take loads of antidepressants every day. She
can’t take it without taking medicine for a day!
“Look at how much weight she has lost compared to before. What has she become now? These are the lingering
effects of taking antidepressants!” Miranda couldn’t help but wipe away her tears once more, overwhelmed by
sadness.
When Bruce heard this, his breathing instantly stopped. His heart ached as if it was being stabbed by a knife.
It was the first time that Bruce learned about Joanna’s depression!
He was really a bastard. Not only did he not notice it, but he also kept making her angry!
Miranda cried as she spoke, her tears falling non–stop. “Joann is such a poor girl. It breaks my heart to see her
going through so much!”
“When she was having an attack, she often locked herself in her room. I often didn’t dare to sleep, afraid that she
would do something stupid. Boohoo…”
“Stop! Bruce’s nose felt sour. He did not want to hear any more!
If he had known that Joanna had such a serious depression, he definitely wouldn’t have provoked her, let alone hurt
her like
this!
Her illness must have been caused by him!
“Joanna, why won’t you tell me anything?” Bruce said bitterly and punched the wall.
In the past, he loved to see her go crazy and fly into a rage. Every time he saw her angry and helpless, he felt
joyful. However, he did so just to keep her by his side. He believed that once she had nothing, she would never
leave him.
He really didn’t expect to hurt her so deeply.
“Bruce, don’t be a hypocrite here! Joann became like this because of you!
“What right do you have to show remorse here? Leave immediately. If you still have an ounce of humanity left, stay
away from Joann!
“Do you even realize? It was because of all of you that Joann suffered all these years. Do you have any idea how
she endured her time ip Surbano?”
Bruce closed her eyes. His eyes were extremely red!
Martha did not understand their language, but she knew that they were arguing. “Bruce, let’s go back. Don’t argue
with
them!”
“Martha, I’m sorry! I have to send you back!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Bruce, I don’t want to hear you apologize!”
Bruce frowned. “My heart is in a mess now! I really can’t start a new relationship!”
When Martha heard this, her blue eyes were filled with disappointment. “Bruce, do you really not love me? Are
unwilling to marry me?”

Bruce’s expression darkened. He looked at Andy and said, “Andy, send Martha to the airport! “Arrange some
bodyguards. Make sure she safely returns to Novlis.”
“On it, Mr. Everett!”
“Bruce, I don’t want to go back. I want to be with you!” Martha anxiously hugged Bruce’s arm!
“Bruce, are you refusing to accept me because of your ex–wife? You still love your ex–wife, right?”
“Yes!”
“No, I don’t accept it! Since you still love your ex–wife, why did you start dating me?” Martha was instantly
exasperated!
She could not accept the fact that she had been dumped! She was a princess. She had the noblest bloodline!
How could he dump her?
Bruce’s mind was in a mess.
At that time, he thought that the relationship between him and Joanna was completely over!
He yearned for a new relationship to fill the void and alleviate the pain in his heart. After all, he was human too, and
he too could experience hurt.
Although he hurt Joanna deeply, Joanna hurt him too.
However, it was a stupid idea to move on from an old relationship by dating someone new.
“Bruce, think twice!”
“I’m sorry. What kind of compensation do you want? Just tell me. I’ll try my best to satisfy you!” Bruce wanted to
end this relationship as soon as possible with money.
He was so poor.
He had nothing but money.
He didn’t know how to make up for the losses he had caused others other than compensating with money.
If possible, he was willing to let her cut him.
However, these were all unrealistic! The most practical thing was to compensate the other person with enough
money!
He may have been a scoundrel, but he wasn’t entirely devoid of decency. At the very least, he had the audacity to
take responsibility for his actions. Though he had toyed with a woman, he vowed to compensate her financially to
the best of his ability. He would not trifle with her emotions and leave her nothing.
