Chapter 145 Return Of Ex-wife

• Roxanne was aware that Bruce made a trip to the Haynes Group today. Bruce paused for a few seconds. “I’ll see how it goes tonight.” “Bruce, I’ll feel scared if you don’t come back!” said Roxanne. “There are so many ser vants at home. What is there to be afraid of? If you’re afraid, call your mother over to accompany you,” Bruce remarked. “Bruce, I want you to accompany me!” Roxanne spoke in a soft and pleading tone.

Bruce was slightly obsessed with cleanliness and did not like others coming to his private residence. Roxanne had been living here for more than ten days, but Ingrid had not come once. An hour later, Ingrid came over eagerly. Ingrid’s eyes lit up when she saw the luxurious mansion, and she could help but exclaim in admiration. “Oh my, Bruce lives alone in such a big place?
