Chapter 159
Ingrid was furious. She pointed at Joanna and scolded, “You shameless bitch! You have no guts to admit what you have done. You keep saying that you’ll
keep a distance from Mr. Everett, but you’re still having an affair with him behind Roxy’s back.”
When Joanna heard this, she was infuriated. “Ingrid Haynes, watch your mouth!
“You are in no position to say anything about whatever happens between me and Bruce!
“Even if I am still having an affair with him, it’s between us. I knew Bruce first. It was Roxanne who came between us. I wasn’t the home wrecker!
“If you speak rudely without thinking again, I’ll sue you in court. Don’t forget what you’ve done yourself!”
Ingrid took a deep breath, and her face turned pale.
She did not dare to argue with Joanna anymore. Instead, she turned to Shaun and made a scene. “Hubby, did you listen to what your good daughter has
said?
“She’s deliberately going against our family. Our family is really unlucky. Why do we have such a jinx in our family?
“If anything happens to Roxy, I don’t want to live anymore too.” Ingrid started howling.
After Ingrid finished scolding Joanne, it was as if she had suffered all sorts of grievances. She started wailing and pulling Shaun’s sleeves.
As Shaun comforted Ingrid, he also scolded Joanna, “You are so unfilial! You are such an unfilial daughter!
“What have I done to have a daughter like you? You are just going to drive me to my grave! Today I’ll beat you to death, you shameless thing!”
“Please don’t argue here. This is the hospital.” The nurses and security guards all came over to stop the commotion.
Joanna held her breath, and she put on an indifferent expression. “I can’t explain anymore to you! You can do whatever you want.”
With that, Joanna turned around and prepared to walk into the ward.
“Stop right there! I’m going to beat you to death, you unfilial thing!”
“What’s going on?” Bruce came back after sending Margaret home.
Seeing the commotion in front of him, he frowned deeply.
“What are you arguing about?”
When Ingrid saw Bruce, she became furious again. “Bruce, you came at the right time!
“What do you mean by canceling the wedding? Have you thought about how my Roxy feels?

“Have you thought about the Haynes family’s feelings? The wedding is going to be held tomorrow.
We’ve already informed our relatives and friends. Do you think you can cancel it just like that? What do
you think everyone will think of Roxy? What do you take Roxy for?”
Bruce frowned and said in a deep voice, “I’m sorry. I’m really sorry about this matter.”
“Gosh! Do you think an apology is enough? Do you know how much hurt you’ve caused Roxy? Roxy is
missing now. If she does anything silly, I’ll definitely not let the Everett family off even if it means risking
my life.”
Bruce pondered for a few seconds. “I’m really sorry, but my daughter is seriously ill now. I need to save
my daughter first. Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
“We can hold the wedding anytime. There’s no hurry.”
“Your daughter? You should be marrying Roxy tomorrow. Where did your daughter come from? Do you
think you are doing right by Roxy?”
Ingrid was extremely unforgiving. When she saw Bruce’s guilty expression, she became even more
arrogant.
Upon hearing Ingrid’s words, Bruce’s expression instantly changed. “I have never let anyone down.
The relationship between me and Roxanne was a misunderstanding from the beginning! I’ve already
kept my word to marry her! If you have any objections, let’s cancel the wedding!”
If not for Roxanne Haynes’s constant threat of suicide, he would have broken up with her long ago.
After Roxanne had been assaulted, Bruce blamed himself even more. That was why he was willing to
marry her.
From the looks of it, there was no need for him to be so kind anymore.
When Ingrid heard this, she was instantly dumbfounded, and her attitude changed. “No, how can you
be so irresponsible? You have been with Roxy for six years, and now you’re dumping her just like that.
Aren’t you being too heartless?”
“Mrs. Haynes, although I’ve been dating Roxanne for six years, we have never been intimate! In terms
of money, I’ve given her a lot of compensation!! feel that I’ve not let her down! Since you’re so
dissatisfied with me, that is fine. My relationship with her ends today!”
Ingrid panicked when she heard this. “Bruce, that’s not what I meant. I don’t mean to blame you!
“What I was trying to say is that Roxy has an innocent personality, and she is easily bullied!
“Whatever your decision is, you need to discuss it with her. You’re supposed to have the wedding
tomorrow, and now you’re suddenly ignoring her! How is she going to face others in the future?
“If you want to postpone the wedding, you can postpone it as long as you want…”
Bruce did not want to say anything else. “I’m not in the mood to talk about this now. I have to save my
daughter first!
“We’ll talk about the relationship between me and Roaxanne in the future!”
“Bruce, Roxy can wait for you…”
“Send them out!”
“Bruce!” Ingrid wanted to say something else..
A few bodyguards stepped forward and stopped her.
“Mr. and Mrs. Haynes, please leave now. Don’t disturb Mr. Everett anymore!”
“Bruce, we’ll go back first. I’ll try my best to comfort Roxy. She’ll definitely be willing to wait for you!”
When Bruce heard this, he felt even more frustrated.
He really hoped that Roxanne would give up on this relationship voluntarily after this incident. He was
really disgusted by her threats of suicide.
As they were leaving, Ingrid complained to Shaun, “It’s all because of your good daughter!
“I notice when you see her, you only talked fiercely. If I were you, I would have slapped her hard many
times!”
“Alright, alright/Let’s not talk so much. Hurry up and find Roxy! Keep an eye on her and don’t let her do
anything stupid…”
After Ingrid and Shaun left.
Joanna was a little out of her wits. She didn’t expect a scene like this. Unfortunately, the unexpected
happened, and it gave her a big blow.
“Bruce, I’m sorry!”
Bruce gently brushed her messy hair back. “Don’t be silly. What are you apologizing for?”
Joanna’s eyes were bloodshot. “I shouldn’t have told you this at this time…”
Bruce guessed what she was going to say and immediately cut her off. “Joanna, please don’t add this
burden on yourself.
“Even without Lilia, I really don’t want to marry Roxanne.”
Hearing this, Joanna subconsciously looked up at him.
Bruce’s hawk–like eyes were filled with gentleness. “I told you before that there was a
misunderstanding between us!
“I made a mistake, and I ended up losing you! If you are willing, let’s start over, shall we?”
Joanna was stunned!
It was impossible for her to reconcile with Bruce.
And she had no intention of breaking him up with Roxanne!
In her relationship with Bruce, she felt fear and anger. She’d never want to experience that kind of pain again.
“Bruce, I really have no intention of breaking you up with Roxanne! I also don’t want to be criticized by others!”
Bruce was a little angry, and his voice became less gentle. “I’ve already said that there’s a misunderstanding between us. Can’t you understand what I’m saying?”
“I really don’t understand!”
“Joanna, I want to get to know you again and woo you again. Is that okay?”
When Joanna heard this, she was stunned! She subconsciously shook her head and said, “No, it’s not possible.”
“You and Roxanne are about to get married. You can’t let Roxanne down just because you want to save Lilia!
“I don’t want people to misunderstand that I fought with Roxanne to get you back!” Joanna said and took a few steps back in a panic.
She was really afraid of the cyberbullying six years ago.
Everyone was calling her a scheming bitch who seduced and married her brother–in–law. If she got back with Bruce, the cyberbullying would start again.
Everyone in Greyport would probably criticize her more viciously.
“Joanna, why don’t you understand?
“From the beginning, it was Roxanne who replaced you!”
Bruce wanted to explain clearly, but it had been more than ten years. It would not convince Joanna at a time like this.
Instead, she would think that he was a fickle–minded man.
Joanna would never understand why he would have feelings for her after she saved him from the swimming pool ten years ago.
“Bruce, stop talking! You’ve already hurt me deeply. Don’t hurt Roxanne!”
“Joanna, are you going to keep pushing me away? Have you ever loved me?”
.
How could Joanna not love him?
She had loved him for ten years, but now, she really did not love him anymore!
