The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 382

Bruce was still pinning Joanna’s two hands firmly on the bed. He looked at her with bloodshot eyes. “Joanna, I’ll go crazy without you. I won’t allow you to marry another man.”

Joanna’s heart ached and her eyes turned red–rimmed. “Get up first. I’ll call the doctor here first.”

“No. Just let me die like this. You don’t love me anymore anyway!”

When Joanna heard this, she snapped completely. She used all her strength to push Bruce away. “That’s enough! Bruce Everell, can you stop threatening me like this every time?

“Don’t use the ruse of self–injury in front of me again. The person you love has always been yourself alone.

“It’s really impossible between us. The one I love is Jay.”

When Bruce heard this, his eyes dimmed suddenly and his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife. “Joanna…

Joanna strode toward the door of the ward. “Doctor, quickly come and take a look at him!*

Soon, the doctor and nurses rushed over.

When he saw Bruce’s condition, the doctor got a big shock. “Mr. Everett is vomiting blood again. Quickly prepare him for surgery!

“He vomited so much blood. It might really be a perforated ulcer.”

As he spoke, the doctor sniffed again and immediately detected a strong smell of alcohol. “Did Mr. Everett drink again?

“Goodness! There’s really half a bottle of wine here.

“Quickly send Mr. Everett to the operating room

Bruce’s legs went weak. He bent over and coughed. “Cough! Cough!” He spat out another mouthful of blood. His stomach hurt like a churning and roiling sea.

“Quick! Quick! Quick!”

A few nurses went forward and helped Bruce onto the transfer stretcher. They then hurriedly wheeled him into the operating room.

He was already suffering from gastric ulcers and had just drunk alcohol. His condition had worsened as a result.

“Doctor, how is he?”

“Mr. Everett has a perforated ulcer. He is in great danger now. He needs urgent surgery.”

When Joanna heard this, she felt a chill run down her spine and she collapsed onto a bench in the corridor.

“Bruce, why do you have to do this?”

Two hours later, the indicator lights outside the operating room finally went off.

The doctor walked out of the operating room.

When she saw this, Joanna quickly went forward. “Doctor, how’s Bruce?”

“Mr. Everett has a perforated ulcer. The surgery to patch up the ulcer has been completed. We still need to keep him under observation in the intensive care unit!”

“… Alright, I understand!”

When Andy heard this, he also became anxious. “Mr. Everett was fine earlier. Why did he become so seriously ill again?”

Joanna let out a deep breath. “Which one of you brought him the wine? You know that he can’t drink, so why do you still let him do whatever he wants?”
