Chapter 746

“Well, let me get in touch with the City Hall’s officers now.”

“Okay, reschedule for three in the afternoon preferably.”

“Understood, Mr. Everett. I will call the officers right away,” Mr. Jameson nodded hurriedly.

Bruce had to find a solution as he had not foreseen such troublesome circumstances today.

“That’s it, then.” He then hung up the call.

Seeing him distressed and absent-minded, Joanna could not help but ask, “What’s wrong? What happened?”

With a sigh, he said, “Mr. Jameson is stuck in traffic and may not arrive soon.”

“Oh, there’s no need to rush!” She comforted him instead.

“Honey, I have an urgent matter to attend to now. I have rescheduled the remarriage procedures with Mr. Jameson for three o’clock in the afternoon.”

She was startled by his words, wondering what could be more important than completing the marriage procedures.

However, seeing how burdened he looked, she agreed. “Alright! If you have something important, go ahead and take care of

it!”

He smiled gently, leaned over, and kissed her on the forehead. “You take care, eh? I will be back soon. Love you.”

“Okay! I love you too.” Even though she was unhappy on the inside.

However, she did not dwell on it, nodding as she said, “Go ahead. Come back soon!”

“Don’t let your imagination run wild, eh? Just wait for me.”

“Got it.” He then kissed her forehead again.

He checked the time to find it was already past nine.

Aria probably had not left for the airport yet.

Therefore, he supposed it would be better to meet her at the hotel.

He quickly grabbed his car key and put on his suit jacket, then hurriedly left the hospital ward.

After Aria’s departure, there might not be a chance for them to see each other again in this lifetime. Despite the circumstances, he felt compelled to say his farewell to her.

It was past ten o’clock.
