Chapter 749

Joanna’s voice suddenly became emotional. At this point, she was like a hedgehog under attack, raising its quills in defense.

Mr. Jameson and the officers exchanged awkward glances as they were taken aback.

She had always been gentle and refined, after all. Therefore, her sudden loss of control left everyone puzzled.

“Joann, what’s wrong?” Miranda, who was alarmed, hurriedly approached to inquire.

“Everyone, get out!” Joanna shouted hoarsely.

Before the echoes of her shout subsided, the hospital room door was forcefully pushed open.

Bang!

Bruce arrived, gasping for breath while his entire body was drenched in sweat. The white shirt clung to him, and sweat drops dripped down from his forehead in a steady stream.

His face flushed, and he took deep breaths as his trembling legs carried him to the bedside.

He had encountered heavy traffic on the way here.

Without hesitation, he abandoned the car and ran for more than ten minutes to arrive as fast as possible.

“Joann, I’m sorry. I’m late…”

Mr. Jameson looked at him awkwardly, then at Joanna, “Mr. Everett… well, we…”

“Joann, I’m really sorry. Luckily, the officers are still here. Let’s proceed with the procedures right away!” He unbuttoned a couple of shirt buttons for ventilation as he spoke.

Joanna’s eyes turned crimson, locking onto him with a spooky gaze.

Seeing this, he felt a chill on his back and quickly apologized again.

“Honey, it’s all my fault. I’ll explain to you later. Let’s proceed with the remarriage procedure first!”

Her gaze held a touch of ridicule as she uttered, “No need!”

With shock, he took two deep breaths to calm his pounding chest slightly. “Honey, don’t be angry. I got held up earlier! Look, I rushed back as soon as I could. Please don’t be upset…”

As he spoke, he sat sideways on the hospital bed, tenderly reaching out to embrace her.

“Mr. Jameson, where’s the agreement?”

“Oh, here it is!” Mr. Jameson hastily handed over the contract.

With a cold snort, Joanna quickly snatched the document.

Her eyes were filled with despair and emptiness now. She looked like a robot as she started tearing the agreement into pieces, bit by bit.

Bruce, witnessing this, gasped in shock.

He was indeed negligent earlier.
