Chapter 1040

“Look, you’re thinking too much again. Just pretend that I didn’t say anything.” Jaydon quickly stopped the topic.

Joanna smiled. “It’s okay. Talking about it makes me feel a little better inside.”

“Alright then.”

“Then you go ahead with your work. The children and I will go back first.”

“Okay, let me send you all to the port.”

“Sure, thank you.”

On the way back, Joanna had a

lot on her mind.

Now, she really wanted to go to Melta and see what Bruce was doing.

“Joann, I see you’re taking care of so many children. It must be exhausting. If you can’t handle it, you can send Patricia back,” Jaydon suggested,

“It’s fine. There are many servants in the Everett family. They can take care of them.”

“Yes, I’m also looking for a babysitter and reliable servants these few days. Once things settle down, I’ll bring Patricia back.”

“Okay.”

“It’s about time. You should

The two little ones waved

goodbye to Jaydon. “Goodbye, Mr. Grimm.”

“Goodbye.”

Two hours later, Joanna and

her children arrived at

Greyport.

The two little ones got out of the car and happily ran into the house. “We’re finally back home!”

“Home sweet home, there’s no place like it.”

“The two of you haven’t even finished writing your self- reflection. Don’t even think

about sleeping tonight.”

“Mommy…” The two little guys looked at Joanna pitifully.

Joanna’s face turned stiff. “Don’t pretend to be pitiful. I spared you last night, but if you don’t finish them tonight, I won’t let it slide.”

“Alright!”

It was 10 o’clock at night.

Joanna was reading the self- reflection letter written by her two sons when her phone rang.

Joanna quickly answered the

call. “Hello…”

On the other end of the line, came Bruce’s indulgent voice,

“I was just about to go to bed. What are you doing?”

“I’m calling you right now.”

“Why can’t I see you?”

Hearing this, Bruce hung up the voice call and immediately

initiated a video call.

“Well, can you see me now?”

On the video call, Bruce pouted at her and swallowed nervously. “I miss you, honey.”

Joanna looked at him with a

puzzled expression.

“What’s wrong? You look a little
