Chapter 742

“Why? Is it because of Aria?”

Joanna remained silent.

Aria was merely a trigger; the underlying cause was her deep-rooted lack of security.

Bruce pondered for a few seconds, then took out his phone from his pocket. “I’ll call her right now and explain everything. I’ll ask her to move to a hotel.”

He was about to make a call.

Seeing this, Joanna frowned and grabbed his hand. “Bruce, don’t. Let’s not involve others in our relationship.”

He pursed his lips, looking at her with despair. “Then tell me, what kind of security do you want? I’m willing to give up my life for you. I can give you everything I have, so why do you still feel insecure? Do I have to give you my life, and die in front of you, for you to believe that I love you?”

She could not control her tears as she listened.

Her heart was in turmoil at this point.

He took a deep breath and said solemnly, “I know I’ve hurt you in the past, harming you physically and psychologically. You don’t trust me, and you think I will treat you like before. But Joanna, let me say it one last time, I swear that you’re my last woman. If you want security, all my assets can be transferred to you. I’ll call my lawyer right now to draft a prenuptial agreement. If we divorce, or if I ever do something to hurt you, all my assets, as well as the custody of the children, will be given to you. I’ll be left with nothing. What do you say?”

She did not say anything.

Although she needed money, she did not place too much importance on it.

To her, money was just a number.

Her mother had left her a trust fund, from which she could withdraw 40 thousand dollars every month. Therefore, even if she remained unemployed, she would be all right.

Observing her silence, something seemed to strike him as he said earnestly, “You’re afraid that I’ll betray you or get involved with other women, right? Tomorrow, I’ll undergo a vasectomy. Apart from our four children, there’s no way I could father any more kids with other women. Will you finally believe me then?”

Puff!

She could not help but almost choke on her surprise and disbelief. She looked at him, partly shocked and partly speechless.

A vasectomy.

She was speechless.

I wish I could pull my heart out to show you. I spoke out of line today, and I shouldn’t have sided with Aria, let alone say negative things about you.

You are the most gentle, beautiful, and lovely. Even if you’re not gentle or virtuous, I should defend you, and protect you in front of others. I was wrong. It’s all my fault…”
