The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 725

Joanna’s mind was in turmoil. She said, “How can I sit back and do nothing when such a big problem has happened to the company?

“Hurry up. Get the car ready. I have to go to the office.”

“Madam…”

“Cut the crap,” Joanna said. “Hurry up. Go.”

Seeing that she insisted on going, the butler could only reluctantly agree. “Alright then,” he said.

Beep, beep, beep.

Joanna made another call to Bruce.

The phone rang for a long time before Bruce finally picked up.

“Hey, honey!” Bruce said.

Hearing Bruce’s voice, Joanna felt a tightness in her chest. “Bruce, where did you go?” she asked.

“Uh…” Bruce hesitated.

“Quick, tell me,” Joanna said. “Where are you now?”

“Honey, I’m outside now,” Bruce said. “I’ll be back soon.”

“What are you doing outside?” Joanna said. “You sneaked out. Do you know that I am very worried?” Joanna’s voice revealed a hint of anger.

“I, um, I’ve got to attend to something,” Bruce said. “Anyway, don’t worry. I’ll be back soon.”

Joánna was at a loss for words. She choked up.

“So how long will it take you to get back?” Joanna said.

“Um, I’ll be back at about six in the evening,” Bruce said.

Upon hearing this, Joanna instantly became furious. “Six in the evening?” she said. “Where exactly are you now?”

Bruce pondered for a few seconds and could only make up a lie. “Uh, Jordan introduced me to a therapist for psychotherapy,” he said. “I saw you were still asleep in the morning, so I didn’t tell you.”

“Really?” Joanna said. “Then why did Gael say you went to buy gifts for the children?”

Bruce chuckled and said, “After the psychotherapy session, I’ll go buy gifts for the children. In any case, I’ll definitely be home before six o’clock.”

Joanna was skeptical. “Is it true?” she said.

“Of course it’s true,” Bruce said. “Jordan said it is very difficult to schedule an appointment with this therapist. He is only available in Greyport today.

“That’s why I didn’t have time to tell you. You know, I’m not intelligent. Maybe I’ll become smarter after the psychotherapy

session.”
