Chapter 150

Bruce seethed with anger when he heard that. He chased after her and forcefully pulled her back. “Joanna!”

“What now? Do you want to hit me? Go ahead, hit me!

“Anyway, this isn’t the first time you’ve hit me!”

When Bruce heard this, his eyes were filled with anger.

In the past, he had indeed hit her.

It had been a misunderstanding. He was a gentleman and never liked to hit women.

“Joanna, you’ll be the death of me.”

“Bruce, that’s enough. I don’t want to have anything to do with you anymore. You can do whatever you wish.”

After saying that, Joanna did not want to face him anymore. She turned around and left.

Bruce was a little dejected. Just then, Andy called him again.

“Mr. Everett, Mrs. Everett’s condition is getting worse again. You have to come back immediately.”

“What’s wrong with Grandma?”

“The doctor said it’s heart failure.”

“All right, I’ll go back now.”

After hanging up the phone, Bruce returned to the Everett mansion without further delay.

Soon, he arrived at the Everett mansion.

“Where’s Grandma?”

“The doctor just gave her another injection. Her condition has stabilized.”

“I’ll go in and take a look.”

Bruce then walked into Margaret’s room.

Margaret was lying on the bed with an oxygen mask on her face. She looked weak and frail.

“Grandma, I’m back.”

When Margaret heard Bruce’s voice, she waved her hand lightly, gesturing

Bruce quickly instructed the nurse to take off Margaret’s

mask.

“Grandma, are you feeling better?”

“Bruce.” Margaret eyes were in a daze.

Bruce held her withered and thin hand. “Grandma, I’m here.”

“Where’s Roxy?”

“She’s at the Sherane Bay Villa. Do you want to see her?”

“It’s all right. It’s too far away, I don’t want you to rush back and forth.

“I’m afraid I don’t have much time left.”

“Grandma, you’ll be fine. You’ll live a long life.”

“Bruce, hurry up and get married while I’m still alive.

“Grandma wants to see you start a family before I leave this world.”

Bruce frowned when he heard that.

He no longer had any feelings for Roxanne. He did not want to marry her at all.

However, Margaret was already so ill. He could not delay the wedding any longer.

“Grandma, I’ve already decided. I will marry Roxy next month.”

“Oh, that’s good news. Anyway, you’ve been together for so long. You should get married as soon as possible.”

Margaret was not aware of what had happened to Roxanne.

If she knew, she would probably rather die than let Bruce marry her.

That night, Bruce left for the Sherane Bay Villa.

Bruce returned home, exhausted.

Roxanne had specially cooked many dishes for him, such as seafood stew, grilled salmon, lamb chop, roasted vegetables, and fresh oysters.

They were all nourishing dishes.

When Bruce got back at eight o’clock in the evening, he saw Roxanne in a maid’s outfit, complete with a head scarf and apron.

The attire made her look attractive and seductive.

“Bruce, you’re home.”

“Yes.” Bruce looked at her attire and frowned.

He did not enjoy cosplay at all.

Roxanne smiled sweetly at him. “Dinner is ready. Bruce, quick. Come and have dinner.”

Bruce frowned slightly. “Didn’t I tell you to leave the cooking to the ser vants?”

“I like to cook for you. The ser vants don’t cook as well as I do.”

Bruce said, “I don’t want you to tire yourself out.”

“I have nothing to do at home. If I don’t cook, I’ll be bored to death.”

“All right then. Do whatever you like.”

Shortly after, Bruce washed his hands and sat at the dining table.

Roxanne passed him a bowl of seafood stew, smiling.

Bruce took a sip of the stew. He could taste the herbs in it. “What is this?”

“It’s a seafood stew.” Roxanne had added a lot of rich ingredients that were beneficial to the body.

Bruce frowned even harder.

He looked at the food on the table. There were fresh oysters, grilled salmon, lamb chop, and roasted vegetables.

These were all very rich food.

During this period, he was already in quite a bad mood. If he ate so much rich food, he would feel even worse.

“Bruce, eat more.”

“Okay.”

“Take more of the seafood stew. I spent six hours cooking it.”

“All right.”

In the past month, Bruce did not visit Joanna. Neither did he look for other women.

Now that he had eaten such rich food, one could imagine how heat was trapped in his body.
