Chapter 802 Return Of Ex-wife

• In the office, Joanna opened the files and began to process them meticulously. Fortunately, she had previously served as the acting president of the Everett Group, and Bruce had entrusted her with many tasks. Combined with her extensive experience at the Haynes Group, dealing with these tasks was not a problem at all. In the blink of an eye, the entire morning passed. Joanna had not even had time for lunch, focusing intensely on processing dozens of contracts. Finally, it was already 2 o’clock in the afternoon. Joanna rubbed her tired eyes and checked the time on her watch.
• It should be morning in Antlen by now. Ring, ring, ring. “Antlen should be around 7 o’clock now. Aria should be awake by now. “I’d better call and ask about the situation…” Setting aside her work, Joanna eagerly dialed Aria’s number. The phone rang for a long time. Just as she was about to hang up, Aria picked up the call. “Hello…” Joanna’s heart tightened, and she quickly said, “Miss Bridges, good morning. It’s me.” On the other end of the call, Aria’s voice was calm. “Oh, Ms. Haynes, hello.” “How is Bruce today? Has there been any improvement?” Joanna wanted to make small talk in the first place. However, she really could not think of what to say, so she went straight to the point.
• Aria hesitated for a few seconds before gently replying, “For the time being, there’s been no change. The toxins in Bruce’s body need to be gradually cleared, and he won’t wake up so quickly.” When Joanna heard the situation, she became even more anxious and uneasy. “Are you available for a video call? I want.., to see how he’s doing. “I’m really worried about him and I want to see him now.” Aria interrupted Joanna. “I’m sorry, but phones are prohibited in the research institute. “Therefore, I can’t talk with you through video call. I’m preparing to go to the research institute now, so I won’t say more for the time being. “If Bruce’s condition improves, I’ll let you know.” With Aria’s words, Joanna had no choice but to say, “Alright then. Thank you for your hard work.”
