Chapter 578 Return Of Ex-wife

• They returned to Sherane Bay Villa. Bruce put Joanna onto the wheelchair and pushed her into the house. Davian, Irvin, and Lilia were already waiting to welcome their mother. “Mommy, welcome home. We missed you so much.” “Babies, I missed you so much.” “We miss you too. The three children threw themselves into Joanna’s arms and surrounded her, chirping happily. Looking at the three children’s little faces, Joanna had a smile on her face, but her heart felt like it was being cut by a knife. She wanted to be with her children forever. However, she had no choice but to bear the pain and leave the children. It was too suffocating to be with Bruce. A man as unpredictable as him was like a time bomb that would explode at any moment. It was really too tiring to get along with him. “Mommy, why is your belly still so small?” “That’s right. If you’re pregnant, shouldn’t your belly be bigger?” “You’re silly. Mommy has only been pregnant for more than a month. How could her belly grow this fast?” “Oh, then when mommy was pregnant with us, was her stomach this big?” Irvin said as he spread out his arms. Joanna smiled and said, “That’s right! When I was pregnant with you guys, I thought my belly was about to explode.
• It was really hard.” Because she had triplets, it was an especially difficult pregnancy for Joanna. She almost lost her life twice. When she was seven months into the pregnancy, some complications happened and she had no choice but to undergo a C-section. When Bruce heard this, a hint of heartache appeared on his face. He said gently. “I’m sorry. I couldn’t take care of you and the children back then.” “I’ll make sure to support you for this pregnancy.” When Joanna heard this, her pupils contracted and she looked elsewhere. At that time, she felt too lonely, so she decided to give birth. Now, she already had three children. She wouldn’t give him another child. If she was able to leave successfully, she would go to the hospital to get an abortion. Since Bruce wanted this child so much, she would not let him have his way. She also wanted him to have a taste of heartache. “Mommy is so great!” “That’s right! You must be filial to your mother when you grow up. Don’t make her angry, understand?” “Yes, we understand.” Bruce immediately smiled. “Alright, Mommy must be tired. Daddy will send Mommy back to her room to rest.” “Okay.” Bruce carefully carried Joanna in his arms and brought her to the bedroom on the second floor.
• “Are you tired?” “A little. I still want to sleep, Joanna said and deliberately yawned. *Pregnant women are more sleepy. Have a good sleep. I’ll need to do some work now. I have an online meeting with the higher-ups.” “Alright, go ahead!” Bruce lowered his head and kissed her forehead. After Bruce left, Joanna quickly got off the bed and limped to the safe. Then, she opened the safe and took out her documents, passport, and a few bank cards. She was about to close the safe when she saw a few jewelry boxes at the side. Inside was the jewelry Bruce had given her. She needed money now. The few sets of jewelry could be sold for a lot of money. Thinking of this, Joanna opened the jewelry box, took out the jewelry, and placed them all in her medicine bag. She had never been a greedy woman, but Bruce had taken the Haynes Group from her through despicable means. This really made her hate him to the extreme. She was only taking the jewelry now to make up for a small part of her loss. After all, there was always a silver lining. Although the Haynes Group was in a precarious situation, it was still worth hundreds of millions of dollars in market value. It was not too much to take this measly jewelry. As for the Haynes Group’s assets, she would leave all of them to the children. She had decided to start over. She had to prove that she could still gain a foothold in the business circle after leaving Bruce. It was 6.30 PM the next day.
