The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife

Gasp! Bruce Everett frowned in pain. The oil that splashed out had scalded his arm until a few blisters appeared.

Joanna Haynes quickly turned off the gas stove. “Did you get scalded?”

Gasp! Gasp! Bruce took two deep breaths.

“Quick! Let me take a look!” Joanna lowered her head to check. There were a few blisters on his arm, and his blue veins were bulging. Does it hurt?”

“What do you think?” Bruce blurted angrily.

“How dumb!” That was Joanna’s conclusion. She quickly turned on the tap and rinsed his arm with cold water.

“Be gentle. It hurts!”

“Put some ice on it later. It’ll be fine in two days.”

Bruce frowned and refused to relent. “Put it on for me.”

*Fine! You are really born to live like a prince.” Joanna gave a sigh and opened the fridge to get some ice.

Then, she put the ice cubes in an ice bag and applied it to his blisters.

Bruce wasn’t that squeamish, and the pain was within tolerable limits. However, he just enjoyed tormenting Joanna

He liked the feeling of Joanna focusing all her attention on him.

“Can you be gentler? You’re hurting me.”

Joanna gently blew on his arm. “Is it really that painful?”

As he watched Joanna’s anxious and earnest expression, Bruce felt extremely pleased inwardly.

“Of course!” Bruce extended both arms in front of Joanna petulantly and enjoyed her gentle service with a clear conscience.

Near the kitchen door, when the servants saw that Bruce was scalded, they were so frightened that their skins tensed up. “Mr. Everett has been scalded. Quickly inform the family doctor to come here.”

“Go get the burn cream and disinfecting wipes quickly.”

“Alright.”

After a while, the head servant rushed into the kitchen with the burn cream. “Mr. Everett, the burn cream is here! Dr. Henley is here too.”

When Joanna heard this, she immediately stopped what she was doing. That’s good. Let the doctor apply the medicine for you!”

Bruce’s expression sank. He glanced at the servant ominously. “Who told you to come in? Get out.”

The head servant was stunned. “Oh, sure.”

The head servant quickly excused herself from the kitchen.

She was really totally lacking in perception. Her attempt to flatter her employer had failed big time.

After leaving the kitchen, the head servant was so frightened that she couldn’t help muttering to herself, “It’s over, it’s over. I’ve disrupted Mr. Everett’s flirting with Miss Haynes. Will I get fired?”

When the other servant heard this, she couldn’t help but say, “Seriously, why didn’t you knock before you entered?”
