The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 390

Lilia pouted and replied faintly, “Tll call Daddy now.”

“Mm–hmm. Good girl.”

After ending the call, Joanna Haynes couldn’t help sighing. This was all she could do for now.

Beep! Beep! Beep!

Lilia dialed Bruce Everett’s number.

In the office, Bruce sat on the leather chair. His face was terrifyingly ominous, but at the same time, it was ashen white.

He had just undergone surgery yesterday. Although it was not a particularly major surgery, the scalpel was still used. It was very damaging to his overall well–being.

“Hello, baby!”

On the video call interface, Lilia leaned close to the screen, her big eyes filled with worry. “Daddy, where are you now?”

“What’s wrong, baby?” Bruce’s expression softened and revealed a trace of warmth.

No matter how awful his mood was, as soon as he saw his daughter’s adorable face, all the awfulness instantly diminished considerably.

“Daddy, did you not listen to the doctor? Did you secretly leave the hospital?” Lilia stared with her big eyes. Her tiny face revealed a sensible manner that was totally incongruous with her young age.

Bruce’s eyes darted around. He did not want his daughter to worry and feel disappointed. “Er… no!”

“Daddy is lying. Daddy is clearly not in the hospital. Daddy, I am very worried and I don’t want Daddy to be sick.”

Bruce let out a tired breath. “My good baby, Daddy is fine.”

“Daddy, can you go back to the hospital obediently? Listen to the doctor and have your illness treated, Lilia said as her tiny mouth turned downward. She looked like she was about to cry.

When he saw this. Bruce’s heart almost melted. “My good baby, don’t cry. Daddy will go to the hospital now, okay?”

When Lilia heard this, her puckered–up face broke into a smile instantly. “Mm–hmm. Daddy must listen to the doctor obediently. When Daddy recovers, I will make a cake for Daddy to eat.”

*Haha! Okay.” Bruce smiled dotingly. His chilly, malicious eyes instantly turned into two misty pools of hot springs.

It had to be said that his daughter was his weakness, and she had brought him countless heartwarming moments of healing.

“Then when Daddy returns to the hospital, you have to give me a video call. You mustn’t lie to me.”

“Mm–hmm.”

The little girl smiled sweetly, pouted her tiny mouth, and blew Bruce a big kiss.

“Bye, Daddy.”
