The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 283

Chapter 283
Joanna heard the voice and instinctively turned around. “What’s wrong?”
Carmel pulled a long face and stared at Joanna fiercely. “Ms. Haynes, I want to talk to you privately!”
“About what?” Joanna was puzzled.
“I want to ask you why you’re still entangled with Mr. Grimm when you clearly have a relationship with Mr. Everett?”
Joanna fell silent and looked at Carmel in confusion.
“Hmph! Haven’t you done enough harm to Mr. Grimm? How much more do you want to harm him?”
Joanna was even more stunned after hearing this.
Carmel glared at Joanna with anger and said bluntly, “Mr. Grimm’s company is in trouble because of you!
“Otherwise, Starlight Media would not have such a bad reputation and hit rock bottom!
“It’s all because of you, you and your ex-husband!”
Joanna’s eyes darkened as she listened.
Indeed, Jaydon’s company had reached this point of chaos, and Bruce had played a significant role in it.
Starlight Media had been sabotaged by Bruce behind the scenes, which pushed the entertainment company to the brink of bankruptcy.
Although Jaydon was from a wealthy family, losing this amount of money was simply nothing, Starlight Media was still a business he built, and now it was destroyed by Bruce.
It was definitely infuriating!
Carmel continued without stopping. “Also, the reason why Mr. Grimm got into a car accident was to rush to see you!”
When Joanna heard this, she found it even hard to believe.
“I don’t care who you love. If you want Mr. Grimm to be well, please stay away from him!
“A woman like you is not worthy of Mr. Grimm!” Carmel angrily scolded without reservation.
Joanna took a deep breath and looked at Carmel calmly. “Miss Basil, I think you have misunderstood.
“Jay and I are good friends. It’s not what you think!”
Carmel sneered. “Huh, no need to explain. I’m not a fool.
“We are all sophisticated adults. How could I not understand what you are planning about? You just want to make use of Mr. Grimm!
“Please stay away from him and stop bothering him!”
Carmel came from a less privileged background and had to work hard to make a living at a young age.
In her eyes, men were more like resources to be utilized, a stepping stone to climb the social ladder.
The more benefits she could gain from a man, the more it proved that he loved her.

Based on her own experiences and mindset, she naturally assumed that Joanna had the same thoughts and intentions. She believed that Joanna was merely using Jaydon to gain more advantages.
Of course, Carmel truly loved Jaydon and fantasized about becoming his official girlfriend.
Joanna remained silent and shrugged her shoulders. “Fine, I understand what you mean. But I’m sorry, I don’t need to explain my relationship with Jay to anyone.
“I can’t accept your request.”
Carmel became even angrier after hearing Joanna’s reply. “Joanna, are you insisting on sticking to Mr. Grimm?”
“It’s not that I’m insisting on sticking to Jay. Jay and I are good friends! I won’t lose my good friend because of anyone or ignore their well-being!”

Chapter 283
“Joanna, what you’re doing is unethical…”
“I don’t want to say much to you right now, so please step aside!”
Joanna finished speaking and did not bother saying anything more to Carmel. She walked away directly.
Watching Joanna’s departing figure, Carmel felt irritated. “Hmph, Joanna, don’t get too smug at the moment! One day, I will make Mr. Grimm fall in love with me completely!”
Joanna left the hospital, feeling a sense of unease in her heart.
She had never considered being with Jaydon!
However, outsiders always assumed that there was a romantic relationship between them, which was not the case.
Carmel had also treated her as an imaginary rival in love!
After returning to Greyport, Joanna checked the time and realized tomorrow was Sunday.
It was also the day she had agreed with Bruce to see the children.
Although she was busy with work, she still wanted to meet her children.
Ring, ring, ring!
Bruce’s phone rang.
I
He was sitting in a chair, smoking one cigarette after another.
It had been a whole week, and he thought that Joanna would show some weakness and seek reconciliation with him…
But to his surprise, a whole week had passed, and Joanna had not even called him once.
Now that he saw Joanna’s call, Bruce’s heart suddenly raced with excitement.
“Hey, what’s up?”
“… Bruce, tomorrow is Sunday! I want to bring the children back to stay for a day.”
Upon hearing this, Bruce’s heart sank, his face turning grim.
Joanna had not contacted him the entire week, and now that she finally did, it turned out she just wanted to see the children!
“Hey, are you listening?
“Didn’t we agree to let me see the children once a week?”
Bruce replied coldly, “I didn’t say I disagree, did I?”
“Fine, how do we arrange it for tomorrow? Should I pick up the children, or will you send someone to bring them over?”
Bruce choked his words when he heard Joanna.
“Tomorrow morning at 10:00, I will have someone send the children to the entrance of Century Plaza.
“You can only see the children under the surveillance of bodyguards, and the time will be limited to one hour.”
Upon hearing this, Joanna’s heart ached with anger. “Bruce, can’t you be less domineering?
“I only get to see the children once a week, and now you want to have them monitored and restrict the time to only one hour. I don’t agree. You can’t do this…”
I want to see them, it will be on my terms. If you
Bruce let out a cold sneer and said without a doubt, “Don’t bargain with me. If you don’t agree, then don’t bother seeing them at all!”
Joanna was furious. “Fine! I’ll wait at Century Plaza tomorrow!”
“Then it’s settled,” said Bruce coldly and hung up the phone directly.
After ending the call, Bruce threw his phone heavily on the table, and his eyes were slightly red with anger.
This d amn woman really did not care about his feelings at all!
