Chapter 665 Return Of Ex-wife

• “Wow! I didn’t expect it to be so quick!” Joanna smiled. She had thought there would be many people waiting in line. Unexpectedly, there were less than three couples in line. They waited for less than ten minutes before it was their turn. “Honey, be careful.” Bruce carefully supported Joanna as they walked to the registration window. Although his mind was muddled and his demeanor seemed a little clumsy, he wasn’t naturally intellectually impaired. As a result, many of his behavioral habits were preserved in his subconscious. He was like a drunk person, not fully aware, yet carrying a hint of sobriety. He was unlike those born with intellectual disabilities, who only knew how to eat. At the registration window, the two of them handed over their identification cards, birth certificates, and divorce certificate.
• After the staff member examined the documents, he turned to the couple regretfully. “I’m sorry, but I can’t help you with the remarriage procedures for the time being.” Joanna was taken aback and asked, “Why?” The staff looked at Bruce and said in a serious manner, “As Mr. Everett’s intellectual capacity is currently affected, we cannot be certain if he’s really willing to remarry you. “Furthermore, there is currently someone filing a lawsuit against you. Therefore, this remarriage requires the consent of Mr. Everett’s legal guardian.” “Those are two completely unrelated matters. How does someone suing me have anything to do with our remarriage?” Joanna asked in confusion. The staff member responded seriously, “Because Mr. Everett currently lacks the capacity to act personally. “If you wish to proceed with the remarriage procedures, you must obtain the consent of Mr. Everett’s legally appointed guardian.” Joanna was mad upon hearing this. “Come on, he’s an adult.
• Why would he need a guardian? Besides, his parents and grandparents have already passed away.” “Then I’m sorry, but we cannot process the registration procedures for you!” “Please, I’m begging you. Please help us out,” Joanna pleaded. “Ms. Haynes, we’re all following the prescribed procedures! It is necessary to obtain consent from Mr. Everett’s legal guardian,” said the staff member. “But he doesn’t have a guardian. Can I be his guardian?” Joanna asked. “That won’t do. Legally speaking, you are considered strangers. It would be best if one of his relatives became his guardian.” Upon hearing this, Joanna became even more frustrated and anxious, realizing she could do nothing about it. Now everyone in Greyport knew that Bruce had become intellectually impaired. She didn’t expect the process of remarrying to be so complicated. “Forget it. Let’s go back for now,” Joanna told Bruce. Bruce looked at Joanna in confusion.
