Chapter 149

“I already warned you. This is the result of your disobedience. It’s only the beginning. There’s more to come.” Straightening his tie, Bruce gave her a cun ning smile.

Joanna felt a sudden throb in her heart as it pounded faster.

“Bruce, when will you let me go?”

“Well, it depends on how you behave. You have to fight for it yourself. If your behavior is good, I may let you go.”

Joanna stared at Bruce coldly. “What kind of behavior do you want from me?”

Bruce smirked and taunted her, “You know very well what I want. Do I have to spell it out?”

Joanna’s gaze turned cold. She was rendered speechless, consumed by an overwhelming rage.

After staring at each other coldly for a few seconds, Joanna suddenly said, “Well, you just want to sleep with me. Go ahead then.”

As Joanna spoke, she took off her jacket.

She gave a look of submission, her eyes filled with hatred and resentment.

Bruce felt an overwhelming sense of exasperation when he looked into her eyes.

He thought, “Does she think I’m some sort of animal who will take advantage of her helpless plight?”

All he wanted was for her to leave Jaydon.

Bruce did not just want her body. He wanted her heart too.

“Joanna, why are you degrading yourself?

“Are you going to sell your body just to get what you want?

“Will you remove your clothes and sleep with a man just because he can give you what you want?”

Hearing his sarcastic words, Joanna’s temper sparked, and her face turned ashen. “Bruce, you’re such a strange man. What exactly do you want?”

Bruce pinched her chin and said gruffly, “What do I want? Don’t you know?”

“Please stay away from me. Can we talk properly? Don’t touch me.” Joanna took a step back in disgust.

Her reaction made Bruce seethe with anger.

Did she resent his presence so much?

Bruce forcibly grabbed her shirt and brought her close to him. His gaze was reminiscent of a wolf fixated on its target. It was intense and unwavering.

All he wanted was for her to love him. It was that simple.
