The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife

Joanna listened, her eyes turning red as she stared at Bruce with resentment and anger.

Bruce sensed her anger but remained unaffected. He raised an eyebrow slightly, his gaze calm yet provoking.

If she wanted to challenge him, he had plenty of ways to put her in her place.

*I’ll count to 3. You should be right over for dinner!

“You know, I always keep my word!”

Joanna rolled her eyes, and tears welled up instantly.

She had intended to stand her ground against him, but the moment she saw the children, she crumbled instantly.

This damn jerk always knew how to exploit her vulnerabilities.

Receiving no response from Joanna, Bruce began counting, “One”

Joanna’s heart tightened, and she stared sharply at Bruce, filled with intensity.

“Two…” Bruce’s tone grew more serious.

“Three…” Bruce finished counting and stood up, heading towards the door.

Seeing this, Joanna didn’t dare to argue further. She suppressed her anger and reluctantly walked toward the dining table.

Her hair was disheveled, and her figure had become so thin, she was like a bag of bones. Even the smallest–sized clothes hung loosely on her.

On the table, there was an assortment of nutritious dishes.

Milk, sea cucumbers, codfish, and more, were all carefully prepared by top nutritionists.

However, despite her two–day hunger, Joanna had no appetite.

Joanna sat down at the table, feeling numb.

Bruce sat across from her, his demeanor cold, as if interrogating a suspect, his gaze fixed on her.

Though his face remained expressionless, his heart felt like it was being pricked by a needle.

Back when he first met Joanna, although she was slim back then, she wasn’t as emaciated as she was now.

At that time, she was radiant and healthy, her eyes bright and clear, always accompanied by a gentle smile. She was like a sunflower blooming under the sun, leaving an everlasting impression.

But now, although still beautiful, she emitted a sense of sickness and desolation.

Especially how thin she had become! Her limbs were so delicate that they seemed like they could snap with the slightest touch.

“Drink this milk!” Bruce pushed a bowl of milk toward her.

Joanna, like a young student, slowly picked up the spoon and took a sip.
