The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

After a while, the steak and lobster were served.

Chapter 360

The top–grade N5 Wagyu beef melted in Joanna’a mouth with a rich and flavorful aroma. The texture was delicate, like a savory ice cream

Joanna hadn’t eaten lunch, so she was pretty hungry now. She picked up her knife and fork and started devouring the food.

Bruce had ordered some Australian lobster with cheesy pasta

“Would you like some wine?”

Joanna didn’t even look up as she stuffed a piece of Wagyu beef into her mouth. “No. I’ll be driving later. Besides, you have at sensitive stomach right now, so it’s better to drink less alcohol.”

Bruce lifted his glass of lemon water and took a sip, feeling somewhat disappointed.

He had intended to have a candlelit dinner with her and create a romantic atmosphere. Maybe even enjoy some wine to stimulate their hormones.

However, it didn’t seem like she thought of it as a date at all.

He was dressed primly while she was in her professional attire. It felt more like a business discussion than a date, and it made him uncomfortable.

Every time Joanna met Jaydon, she would dress up femininely and sweetly, radiating charm and beauty. But whenever she met him, she had to be serious and formal.

“Why are you eating so fast?”

“Is there a problem?” Joanna suddenly raised her head and looked at Bruce in confusion.

Bruce picked up his fork and placed a piece of lobster onto her plate. “What I mean is, we can take our time and enjoy the meal. No need to rush.”

“I still have work to attend to when we get back. So, what do you want to talk about? Just go straight to the point.”

Bruce’s movements paused, and his face fell.

“Can’t you just be present and have a proper meal with me?”

Joanna remained silent.

If it were just about having a meal, she wouldn’t have wanted to come out in the first place.

“I’ll bring the kids back next Saturday.”

“Is that so?” Joanna subconsciously stopped using her knife and fork.

Bruce smiled faintly. “Yes. Would you like to join me in picking them up?”

“At the airport?”

Bruce placed a piece of lobster in his mouth and replied, “No, at Surbano.”

Joanna hesitated. She felt conflicted about the idea.

She could definitely make time to pick up the kids at the airport. However, if it involved flying to Surbano, it would take at least two to three days.
