Chapter 1036 Return Of Ex-wife
- “Whose damn fault is she getting angry again for no reason?” Frantically, Bruce dialed the home’s landline phone. In Greyport, it was already past three in the morning. The phone rang for a long time before a servant came over to answer it. After all, most people were using mobile phones these days, and this landline phone hardly ever rang in a month. The servant yawned and answered the call. As she answered, she complained, “Hello, who is this? Don’t you know what time it is? Does anyone not need to sleep?” On the other end of the line, Bruce roared, “Everyone seems to be dead asleep! Why did it take so long for someone to answer the phone?” Were all these people dead? “Hurry up and let Joanna take the call.” Bruce’s temper was already bad.
- Now that he had to wait so long for someone to answer the phone, it made his liver ache with anger. When the servant heard Bruce’s voice, she was so frightened that she instantly lost her sleepiness. She wished she could bite her tongue off. She really didn’t know that it was Bruce calling. She quickly stammered, “Mr. Everett, please wait a moment. I’ll go call Madam immediately.” The servant hurriedly put the phone aside and ran to the master’s room on the second floor. She knocked on the door. “Madam, are you asleep? Mr. Everett called and wants you to answer the phone.” Inside the room, there was no response. The servant kept on knocking on the door more carefully. Still, no one replied from inside.
- “Madam, Mr. Everett wants you to answer the phone.” The servant shouted a few more times outside the door. Seeing that there was no response, she did not dare to continue knocking. Then, she quickly ran back downstairs. “Mr. Everett, it seems that Madam is asleep, and I couldn’t open the door to call her.” At the other end of the phone, Bruce was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. 115 He was most afraid that Joanna would not listen to his calls, and even more afraid of being cold- shouldered by her. It was because every time she gave him the cold shoulder, he couldn’t bear it.
