Chapter 78
With a terrifying expression on his face, Bruce stared at Joanna Joanna, don’t talk nonsense. You have to take responsibility for your words!”
Joanna pushed Bruce away and met his eyes angrily Tll take responsibility. And Im responsibly telling you now that the person I love has always been Jay! I only married you because you’re the president of a billion–dollar consortium!
“I spent so much effort to set you up with myself because you’re the wealthiest man in Greyport! My goal was to marry into the Everett family and make use of you!
“But I have no use for you now! I don’t want to toy with you anymore! Please stop pestering me!”
Bruce clenched his fists. “I don’t believe it!”
“You don’t believe me? Alright, I’ll tell you today that the children are Jay’s!
“If you still don’t believe me, I’ll show you the children’s birth certificates and their paternity test results with Jay another day!
Bruce felt his blood freeze when he heard this, and his eyes narrowed.
“Joanna, do you know what you’re talking about?”
If the children were Jaydon’s, it meant Joanna had cheated on him when they were still married. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
This was a humiliation that Bruce could not swallow.
Joanna held her breath and looked toward Jaydon with pleading eyes. “Jay, tell him!”
Jaydon pondered for a few seconds before calmly meeting Bruce’s eyes. “Yes, the children are mine and Joann’s!
“I didn’t announce this to the public because I was afraid of the repercussions it would cause. There’s no need to hide the truth from you anymore since you keep misunderstanding the children’s parentage, Mr. Everett!”
Bruce took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. Frowning, he tried his best to control his anger. “Joanna, I’ll give you one last
chance.”
“I am serious and telling you now that the children are Jay’s! I can show you the paternity test results and the children’s birth certificates another day.
“I was already in love with Jay before I met you!”
Bruce tutted and sneered. “In other words, you still had contact with him while we were married?”
Joanna’s eyes flickered for a moment. In the end, she nodded firmly. “Yes”
Her confirmation was enough to anger Bruce regardless of whether it was true.
“Slap! The crisp sound of a slap rang through the air
Bruce had slapped Joanna.
He had not held back and had given her a tight slap
Joanna lost her balance and staggered Fortunately, Jaydon reacted quickly and caught her in time.
“Bruce, how can you consider yourself a man?”
Malice and anger were overflowing from Bruce. He stared at Joanna threateningly. “Joanna, I’ll make sure you regret this!”
0/16 Thu,
With that, Bruce slammed the door behind him and left with a cold expression.
Joanna slumped limply onto the ground after Bruce left. It was as if she had been sucked of all her energy.
Joann laydon quickly got down on his knees and hugged her.
Joanna leaned weakly in Jaydon’s arms and cried out loudly.
Jay…
“It’s alright. It’s alright. I’ll stand by your side no matter what happens!”
“Jay, I can’t do this anymore!”
Jaydon tightened his grip and comforted her gently. “Joann, don’t hold on anymore if you can’t.
“If things don’t work out, I’ll take you away from Greyport. We’ll go back to Surbano!”
Joanna hugged Jaydon and cried bitterly when she heard this.
Meanwhile, in the parking lot.
“Screech!”
Bruce had started his car. The Aston Martin swerved around like a wild beast that had lost control.
Bruce then suddenly drifted the car and charged it out of the garage.
The chauffeur in the passenger seat was scared out of his wits and hurriedly grabbed the side handles.
“Mr. Everett, why don’t… why don’t I drive instead?”
Bruce did not answer and turned the steering wheel fiercely. The wheels of the car drifted again and rushed into the traffic.
Bruce was vexed and only felt better when venting his irritation by speeding.
However, this greatly frightened the chauffeur.
Bruce initially did not believe Joanna when she said the children belonged to Jaydon.
However, he was half–convinced when she said she would show him the children’s birth certificates and paternity test results.
If Joanna’s statement was true, she had cheated on him with Jaydon during their marriage.
With his personality, Bruce could not accept such a betrayal.
“Joanna, I didn’t expect you to dare lie to me! I’ll make you regret it!” Bruce cursed and slammed on the steering wheel hard.
The car tilted to the side and nearly flipped over.
“Mr. Everett, be careful! There’s a red light ahead…
The chauffeur’s face turned white from the fear that Bruce had run a red light.
Bruce had just got into a car accident last month and had crashed his car into the sea. It had only been a month, and he was driving recklessly again.
If Margaret found out, she would fire all the chauffeurs!
The chauffeur was so frightened when he saw the intersection that he closed his eyes. He thought that Bruce was going to drive through it without a care.
Unexpectedly, Bruce suddenly stepped on the brakes.
The car came to a halting stop.
The huge force made the two of them fly forward. Thankfully, they were locked back into their seats by the seatbelts.
The chauffeur was scared out of his wits.
At that moment, he wanted nothing more than to jump out of the car.
