The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 308

“Mommy, I miss you so much. Why haven’t you come to see me for so long?” Lilia asked.

“I’m sorry, I’ve been very busy lately,” Joanna apologized. She quickly stepped forward to try and pick up Lilia.

Bruce scoffed and muttered sarcastically, “Even if you’re busy, you should make time to be with the children.

“How could you be such an irresponsible mother?”

Joanna paused for a moment, not wanting to argue with him. She then picked up Lilia in her arms.

The moment she reached out, she accidentally revealed the diamond ring on her finger.

Suddenly, Bruce’s gaze fell upon the diamond ring on Joanna’s hand.

His lips twitched involuntarily.

Joanna had never liked wearing jewelry, so it was naturally impossible for her to spend money to buy a diamond ring.

Moreover, this diamond ring was a pink diamond in the shape of a heart. It was worth at least a few hundreds of thousands of dollars. The Haynes Group was currently in trouble now, and Joanna would never spend such a large sum of money on a diamond ring.

“What is that you’re wearing on your hand, Joanna?” Bruce asked abruptly.

Joanna felt a sinking feeling in her heart upon hearing his question.

She had come in a hurry and forgot to take off the ring on her finger.

“It’s… nothing.” Joanna instinctively replied.

Bruce’s face paled. “Show it to me.”

“Bruce, can you please stop meddling in my affairs?”

“Give me your hand!” Bruce demanded, gripping Joanna’s wrist and forcefully bringing her hand closer to his eyes.

This diamond ring was a heart–shaped pink diamond. It must be incredibly expensive.

Bruce’s eyebrows raised, feeling an inexplicable wave of jealousy washed over him. “Who gave you this?”

“What do you mean who gave it to me? Can’t I buy a ring for myself?” Joanna snapped, pulling her hand back angrily.

Bruce paused for a moment.

“Did you really buy it yourself?”

Joanna replied coldly, “Bruce, my personal affairs are none of your concern.”

“Hmph!” Faced with Joanna’s indifference, Bruce let out a cold snort and suppressed his anger.

He didn’t need to be so fixated on her.

Since she didn’t love him anymore, he did not have to lower his dignity and cling to her. It would make him look like a fool.

He was too arrogant to continue chasing after someone who clearly didn’t want him.

Joanna didn’t want to engage in further conversation with Bruce. Instead, she lovingly looked at her three children and asked, “Do you miss Mommy, my darlings?”

“Of course, we do!” the three children replied in unison.

Joanna smiled affectionately and took out three folded paper stars from her bag. “Mommy brought you some gifts!”

Each of the children received one, and they looked at the beautiful paper stars in their hands with curiosity. “Wow, Mommy, what is this?”
