The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 145

Roxanne was aware that Bruce made a trip to the Haynes Group today.

Bruce paused for a few seconds. “I’ll see how it goes tonight.”

“Bruce, I’ll feel scared if you don’t come back!” said Roxanne.

“There are so many ser vants at home. What is there to be afraid of? If you’re afraid, call your mother over to accompany you,” Bruce remarked.

“Bruce, I want you to accompany me!” Roxanne spoke in a soft and pleading tone.

Bruce furrowed his brows deeply. “All right, then. I’ll go home tonight!”

When Roxanne heard this, she was overjoyed. “Then I’ll cook for you!”

“There’s no need for that!” said Bruce.

“I want to do it. I’ll go out to buy groceries later and cook. After that, I’ll wait for you to be back,” said Roxanne.

“Just let the ser vants do these things. You don’t have to make yourself so tired!” said Bruce.

The more virtuous Roxanne behaved, the more uneasy Bruce felt!

“Bruce…” Roxanne wanted to say something else.

However, Bruce interrupted her. “I’m in a meeting right now. I’m very busy. I’ll talk to you later.

“We can talk more after I get home tonight!”

“Oh, okay!” Roxanne’s eyes flickered and then she ended the call.

Less than five minutes after Roxanne ended the call, Ingrid called.

Ever since Roxanne moved into the Everett mansion, Ingrid had been calling her three times a day.

Seeing that it was Ingrid’s call, Roxanne quickly picked up.

“Hello, Mom!” she said.

“Hello, Roxy!” Ingrid said.

“Mom, is something the matter?” asked Roxanne.

Ingrid’s concerned voice came from the other end of the phone. “Roxy, what are you doing?”

“Nothing at all!” replied Roxanne.

“Then why don’t go over and accompany you?” asked Ingrid.

“All right,” said Roxanne.

Bruce was slightly obsessed with cleanliness and did not like others coming to his private residence.

Roxanne had been living here for more than ten days, but Ingrid had not come once.

An hour later, Ingrid came over eagerly.

Ingrid’s eyes lit up when she saw the luxurious mansion, and she could help but exclaim in admiration.
