“No matter what, I will be here for you this time!” Bruce said with determination, but he looked as gentle as a lamb.

Joanna heard it and felt that her heart wrenched for no reason.

If he had ever been as gentle to her as this before, she would probably still love him badly.

However, things changed. She had walked in the cold blast and got caught in the pouring rain. She was once helpless. desperate, and deeply hurt by him. So she had shut herself off and wouldn’t trust him again.

It was difficult for her to open her heart to him again.

Seeing that Joanna was still in low spirits, Bruce’s eyes flickered as he looked at her with a smile. “I have good news for you!”

“What is it?” Joanna still looked depressed without the slightest expectation.

What good news could Bruce bring her? It should be nothing more than him acquiring a few more listed companies or closing more big deals.

“Forget it. I’ll tell you later when it’s the right time!”

Bruce swallowed his words when he saw Joanna was not looking forward to the good news!

He had made a call the day before and planned to bring the children back to the country!

They would arrive the next afternoon!

He had planned to tell Joanna the good news as soon as possible. But he gave it a second thought and decided to surprise

her.

She would be overjoyed to see the children when they arrived!

Joanna rolled her eyes and didn’t talk to him again!

He was always so full of himself. Only God knows what he was thinking in his mind again!

What he thought was good news might not necessarily be good news for her!

Bruce stayed for another while and could not help but rub his temples. “Ouch, I have a terrible headache!”

“You should go home and have a good sleep!”

“Can you massage my head for me? I’ve had nine meetings in a row today. Oh, I feel my head is about to explode!” Bruce leaned against the bed exhaustedly!

The Everett Group was a big company. It would keep him as busy as a bee by handling his daily work in the company.

And he also had to make time to visit Joanna these few days. He had barely slept at all.

Looking at his exhausted face, Joanna felt her heart broken for no reason. She could not help but reach out her hands to rub his temples!

As she did so, Bruce lay on the bed, looking like he was enjoying it.

Seeing this, Joanna didn’t have the heart to stop the massage immediately. She had no choice but to continue rubbing his temples.

She kept massaging his head for about ten minutes.
