Chapter 588

Bruce Everett immediately contacted the media after making up his mind.

The media went into another frenzy on the following day.

“Mommy ran away from home. Bruce Everett’s daughter is critically ill.”

*Bruce Everett’s youngest daughter rushed to hospital, suspected of leukemia relapse.”

The media reports included photos of Bruce Everett sending Lilia Haynes to the hospital.

Davian and Haynes also recorded a video and posted it online.

In the video, the two little boys cried and said pitifully to the camera, “Mommy, where are you? Come back quickly. Lilia is sick and needs you badly.

“We miss you so much, Mommy. If you don’t come home soon, Lilia may be unable to hold on.”

The camera switched to Bruce Everett immediately afterward. “Joann, where are you? Come back quickly. Lilia had a relapse. The doctor advised for a third bone marrow transplant,” he said, eyes welling up.

“If you don’t come home soon, I’m afraid it’ll be too late!”

Bruce paused before continuing. Joann, even if you don’t come home, please let me know you’re safe. The children and 1 are very worried. Davian and Irvin haven’t gone to school for a few days.

*I know I’m a control freak and have made you feel suffocated. I hope the people of Greyport can witness my vow to you; I promise to turn over a new leaf. I also apologize to you for hurting you. Please forgive me!”

Bruce had utterly let go of his pride and spoke sincerely in front of the media.

Meanwhile, under the overpass.

Joanna Haynes slept through the night on the ground, her whole body ached terribly.

She did not have a cell phone. Therefore, she could not access any news on the Internet.

Joanna had just awakened. She put away the cardboard pieces and was about to go out and buy food when she suddenly. heard laughter next to her.

She turned around and saw a homeless man beside her as he scrolled through his cell phone with relish.

“Haha! Bruce Everett is such a lunatic! He’s a rich man who can get his hands on any woman he fancies.

“Why did he put aside his pride to look for his ex-wife in such extravagance? Tsk, tsk, if I were as rich as him, I would have a different woman every day. I wouldn’t be so devoted to just one.”
