The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife

Chapter 108

Jaydon called three times in a row, but Joanna did not pick up.

Jaydon had no choice but to send several voice messages to Joanna. “Have you arrived?” he said. “I’m already here. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

“Why didn’t you pick up the phone? Did something happen?”

“Ding! Ding!” Joanna’s phone kept reminding her of incoming messages on Messenger.

Bruce’s expression suddenly turned serious. “Whose message is it?” he said. “Give me the phone!”

“Why should I let you see my phone?” Joanna said angrily while driving.

The message must have been sent by Jaydon. If Bruce were to see it, he would definitely go berserk again.

“Give me the phone!” Bruce said as he tried to reach into Joanna’s pocket to grab the phone.

“I’m driving,” Joanna said. “Can you please stop making a scene?”

“Hurry up and give me the phone!” Bruce said. He continued to reach for the phone regardless of Joanna’s protests.

In a moment of panic, Joanna turned the steering wheel and the car instantly veered out of the lane, almost getting hit by the car behind her car.

“Ah…” Joanna was so scared that she broke out in cold sweat. The car stopped in the emergency lane.

The driver behind Joanna’s car was also frightened. He wound down the window and scolded, “Damn it! Do you know how to drive?”

After the car came to a stop. Joanna was still frightened. “Bruce, can you not act like this?” she said.

“Give me the phone! Bruce said. As he spoke, he forcefully snatched her phone away.

Although the phone was locked, the caller ID showed it was Jaydon. The nickname of the person that sent the message was also shown.

In an instant, Bruce was filled with jealousy. He was so angry that he flew into a rage. His eyes showed a sinister look. “Joanna, did you arrange to meet Jaydon again?” he said.

Joanna was so angry that her eyes turned red. She reached out and wanted to snatch the phone back. “So what if I did?” she said. “Hurry up and give me the phone!”

“What’s the phone password?” Bruce asked.

“Give me my phone,” Joanna said. “You can’t invade someone else’s privacy!”

“Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Jaydon called again.

Bruce answered the call.

Jaydon’s worried and magnetic voice could be heard from the other end of the line. “Hello, Joan, where are you?” Jaydon said. “Why didn’t you answer my calls? I’m already at the restaurant….

Before Jaydon finished talking, Bruce replied coldly, “Joanna is with me. I’m warning you. Stop harassing Joanna! Otherwise, I’ll make you pay the price!”

“Why are you the one who answers the call?” Jaydon said. “Where’s Joann?”

Joanna was equally exasperated. She tried her best to snatch the phone back. “Bruce, give me the phone quickly!” she said.

“Snap!”

Bruce hung up the phone and then wound down the car window, throwing the phone out forcefully.

His temper was extremely bad. In just one year, he had smashed many phones.

Joanna’s eyes widened in anger. “Bruce, that’s my phone!” she said, “What right do you have to smash my phone?”

After saying that, Joanna hurriedly opened the car door, wanting to get out and look for her phone.

Unfortunately, the phone had already been thrown into the sea. There was no way she could find it.

Bruce also got out of the car and looked at Joanna angrily.

Joanna was so angry that her eyes turned red. Tears fell uncontrollably as she punched Bruce’s body a few times. “Bruce, are you crazy?” she said.

After that, Joanna could not help but squat on the ground and cry!

The phone stored many photos of her children as they grew up, as well as photos of her mother, who had passed away.

Now, they were all destroyed.

Upon seeing the typically tough Joanna burst into tears over a phone, Bruce frowned and said, “It’s just a phone, isn’t it? I’ll compensate you.”

“You want to compensate me?” Joanna said. “Do you know that my mother’s photos are in the phone? How are you going to compensate me?” After Joanna yelled in a hoarse voice, she was completely devastated. She held her head and cried uncontrollably.

As Bruce watched her cry, crouching on the ground looking fragile and vulnerable, he pursed his lips before he involuntarily squatted down and tried to embrace her.

“I’m sorry,” he said. “I didn’t know…”

“Go away!” Joanna said. She pushed Bruce away and rushed into the car while crying. Then, she locked the door.

Joanna, Joanna, open the door!” Bruce said. He was anxious. He knocked on the window hard./

Joanna turned on the ignition, wanting to leave Bruce behind.

Unfortunately, Bruce stood in front of the car before Joanna could drive off.

“Just run over me!” Bruce said.

Joanna took a deep breath and changed into reverse gear. The car quickly reversed dozens of feet. Then, she changed into the forward gear. She stepped on the accelerator pedal, swerved to avoid Bruce, and drove off.

“Damn woman,” Bruce said. “Stop the car…” Bruce stretched out his arm to stop Joanna. Unfortunately, he could not stop her.

Joanna drove off, leaving him alone on the overpass.

Bruce was so angry that he stomped his feet.

He had left his car to Roxanne, and to make matters worse, his phone and wallet were also left in the car.

It was very difficult to get a taxi on this overpass, so he had no choice but to walk down the overpass.

“Shit.”

“Fuck.”

Bruce took off his tie and walked down the overpass.

Rumble!

The sky rumbled with thunder. It was very gloomy. Suddenly, heavy rain poured down.

The pouring rain drenched Bruce, but it actually helped to cool his anger and calm him down.

Swish!

Cars whizzed past him, splashing mud and water all over him. His expensive suit was now a mess, and his handsome hairstyle was also as disheveled as a chicken coop.

He had never been in such a sorry state in his life.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Bruce finally walked down the overpass.

He finally saw a convenience store after walking for a long time.

Bruce had already been drenched in the rain for more than twenty minutes. He was thoroughly soaked, and he was so cold that there was no warmth at all. When he saw the convenience store, he hurriedly went into the convenience store to take shelter from the rain.

“Um, is there a pay phone here?” Bruce asked.

The female shop assistant looked at Bruce with a surprised expression, but she did not say anything.

In this era, it was rare to see people using pay phones. Moreover, judging by Bruce’s appearance, even though he looked disheveled, he did not seem like he could not even afford a cell phone.

“Sorry, we don’t have one,” the female shop assistant said.

Bruce bit the bullet and said, “Can I borrow your phone?”

“Oh, okay!” the female shop assistant said. She hesitated for a moment before obediently handing the phone to him.

Bruce took the phone and hurriedly called Andy.

Beep! Beep! Beep!

The call was quickly picked up. “Hello!” Andy said. “Who’s this?”

Bruce said coldly. “It’s me. Quickly come over to pick me up!”

Andy was stunned.

“Mr. Everett, where are you now?” Andy said. “Can you send me your location?”

Bruce looked around in frustration. Then, he said, “There’s a convenience store under the overpass in Barlsher. I’m here. Come over quickly!”

“Mr. Everett, can you send me your exact location?” Andy said.

“I just told you the address,” Brue said angrily. “Don’t make me repeat myself!”

Andy was scared and his heart skipped a beat. He no longer dared to ask questions. “Oh, okay,” he replied.

After making the call, Bruce returned the phone to the female shop assistant and said, “Thank you!”

12:49 FTI,

The shop assistant was also shocked by his tone. She replied in a soft voice. “You’re welcome!” she said.

Despite Bruce’s disheveled appearance, the shop assistant could not resist hisleidsome face as well as his innate air of refinement.

The shop assistant stared straight at Bruce. She felt that he looked very similar to the Mr. Everett in media reports.

However, she quickly changed her mind and thought that it could not possibly be him.

“Who’s Mr. Everett?” she thought. “He’s the wealthiest man in Greyport. How could he be in such a sorry state?”

Twenty minutes later, several luxury cars whizzed and stopped at the entrance of the convenience store.

Andy and a few bodyguards in suits hurriedly got out of the car and rushed toward the convenience store.

Upon seeing Bruce, Andy’s eyes widened in surprise.

“Mr. Everett, are you okay?” Andy said. “How did you end up like this?”

Bruce looked displeased. He immediately walked out of the shop and said, “Cut the crap!

“Give a tip to the shop assistant.”

“Oh, okay!” Andy said. He hurriedly handed the umbrella to the bodyguard beside him and rushed back to the convenience

store.

He opened his wallet and took out a 200–dollar banknote.

“Thank you!” Andy said. “This is a tip from Mr. Everett!” After saying that, Andy put the 200–dollar banknote on the cashier’s counter. Without waiting for the shop assistant to say anything, he hurriedly left.

Looking at the luxury cars outside and the tip on the cashier’s counter, the shop assistant’s eyes widened in shock. Now, she was certain that the person that came in earlier was Bruce Everett!

“Oh my god, it really is Mr. Everett!” she said.

Bruce returned to the car and Andy quickly got into the car. “Mr. Everett, aren’t you supposed to have dinner with Ms. Haynes?” Andy said.

“Stop asking!” Bruce said. “Achoo! Achoo!” Bruce could not help but sneeze a few times.
