Chapter 47

Now that Bruce was missing, there was no way they wouldn’t be afraid.

The previous night. Bruce would not let anyone follow him. The bodyguards did not dare to disobey him, nor did they dare to let him out of their sight.

Thus, all they could do was follow him sneakily. However, Bruce drove too fast.

Within minutes, they had lost him.

They searched all night but couldn’t find him, and that made them even more frightened!

At seven o’clock in the morning, the alarm clock rang, and Joanna got up to turn it off.

Nowadays, she was a terrible sleeper and would only sleep for three or four hours a day.

Last night, because of Bruce’s interruption, she only managed to get less than two hours of sleep.

In the living room, Bruce was lying on the couch, sound asleep.

As he had lost a lot of blood, his brain was very deoxygenated, which was why he was particularly sleepy.

After Joanna got up, he was still asleep.

Talia got up as well and gazed at Bruce on the couch with a look of resignation. “Miss Haynes, what should we do about him?”

“Leave him be. Just let him sleep!”

After Joanna washed up, she was ready to make breakfast.

With Miranda being away, Talia had to take care of Lilia.

Thus, Joanne had to prepare breakfast by herself.

However, she only prepared simple meals.

Sometimes, it would be as simple as a sandwich or a salad with boiled eggs, served with a cup of strong coffee.
