The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 967

The intense flames of passion had burnt for a long time…

In the morning,

Joanna was still asleep when she awoke to Bruce kissing her.

“Stop it… Quit it… I’m so tired…” Joanna lamented. She was exhausted from last night. Her entire body was sore, and she felt like her bones were falling apart. This jerk… his stamina was crazy.

Any woman would suffer being with him.

Smiling dotingly, Bruce continued kissing her forehead and said, “Little lazy piggy, wake up quickly. If you don’t get up, I’ll come for you again.”

Joanna blinked her heavy eyelids and pleaded, “I can’t take it anymore. Can you just let me sleep in peace?”

“You’re not angry anymore?” Bruce chuckled as he asked.

Joanna tilted her head to the side and closed her eyes. She was so tired that all she could think about was sleep.

As for her anger, she could flare again after waking up.

Seeing that she was closing her eyes again, Bruce gently cradled her head and shook it. He said, “Wake up, no more sleeping! It’s already half past eight! Hurry up and get up.”

Bruce put his arm around her neck and dragged her up forcefully.

“What are you doing? I’m exhausted!” Joanna said. Her body was so sore and weak that she did not want to move.

“We’re going to get our marriage certificate today. We can’t be late. I heard we have to get it before noon,” Bruce replied.

Joanna was lost for words. Upon hearing that, she opened her eyes wide. Half of her fatigue was gone.

She stared blankly at Bruce.

“I’ve thought about it. Let’s get our marriage certificate first. We’ll talk about the rest later,” Bruce said as he glanced earnestly at Joanna.

He had already thought it through. He would get the marriage certificate with Joanna to prevent her from being paranoid and suspicious.
