Chapter 213

Bruce and Roxanne were sobbing. At this very moment, Joanna arrived at the worst possible time!

Seeing them in tears, Joanna couldn’t help but feel alarmed. “What’s going on?”

When Bruce laid eyes on Joanna, his gaze turned wild like a furious beast. They were crimson and fierce as if he wanted to tear Joanna apart right there and then!

“My grandmother is dead! Are you satisfied now?” Joanna cursed, her voice trembling.

This news struck Joanna like a thunderbolt! The flowers she held slipped from her grasp and fell to the ground!

Roxanne, her voice choked with sobs, angrily scolded, “It was you who killed her! It’s because of you that she got so angry she had to be hospitalized!

“Now that she is gone, how dare you show up?

“You murderer! Didn’t you kill her? Are you happy now?”

“This… this can’t be!” Joanna gasped in disbelief.

Bruce had informed her over the phone that Margaret’s health had been gradually improving.

How could she suddenly pass away?

“Bruce, is this true?” Joanna looked at Bruce in disbelief.

Bruce’s expression changed, and he couldn’t help but clench his fists. “Fuck off! Fuck off! I never want to see you again!”

“Bruce!” Joanna looked up at him.

With a resounding clap. Bruce’s hand came crashing down on Joanna’s face!

Caught off guard, Joanna stumbled and fell hard to the ground!

The force of the slap was brutal, leaving Joanna dazed, her face swelling up on one side.

“From this moment forward, I never want to lay eyes on you again!”

“Bruce!” Joanna Haynes looked up at him, trying to gather herself.

Bruce clenched his teeth and growled, “You better get the hell out of here! Before I completely lose it!”

Joanna covered her throbbing cheek and struggled to get up.

“My condolences,” she said, then left in a dazed state.

Everything felt like a nightmare, and her mind was completely blank.

After Joanna left, Bruce closed his eyes and delivered a heavy punch to the wall!

Even though he truly loved Joanna, he couldn’t forgive her for what had happened!

His grandmother was the dearest person to him, and he would never forgive himself either.

“Grandma, rest in peace! I won’t let your death go unanswered!

“Joanna Haynes, I won’t let you get away with this!” Bruce gritted his teeth and spoke with a frightening intensity.

Seeing Bruce’s heartbroken expression, Roxanne couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction. “Joanna, let’s see if you survive this time!

“Even if you survive, you’ll never reconcile with Bruce for the rest of your life!” she thought.

Roxanne’s initial panic gradually subsided.
