El regreso de su inigualable ex esposa

Capítulo 700

Chapter 700

The Grimm family was one of the richest families in Venturas.

It was large and the relationship between its members was very complicated.

As a dandy, Tim had many children, most of them from different women.

Cassius was Tim’s nominal eldest son.

He was outstanding in all aspects and Tim had been treating him as his own son.

However, he was not Tim’s biological child after all. When Cassius’s mother married Tim, she was already pregnant.

Tim was an open-minded person and did not think it was a big deal for a woman to get pregnant before her marriage, so he accepted the child.

However, as his health was getting worse, he wanted to hand over the most important business of the company to his biological son.

Among his five sons, Tim doted on Jaydon the most. Therefore, he put Jaydon in charge of the business he valued the

most.

During this period of time, Jaydon was not happy working in his family company.

Cassius could tell that his position was in danger, so although he did not show it on the surface, he had already begun to make arrangements secretly.

The two brothers had been at odds with each other. Now, they hated each other even more.

After a while, Jaydon broke the silence and asked softly, “I heard that Bruce was discharged from the hospital. Is he alright now?”

“Yes, yes. He is much better now,” Joanna replied.

Jaydon fell silent again at her words.

He wanted to say something, but he did not know what to say.

Joanna looked back at the room from time to time because she was afraid that Bruce would get angry when he found out she was talking to Jaydon on the phone. “Jay, do you have anything to tell me?”

“No, I don’t. I just… want to hear your voice.”

When Joanna heard this, she could not help but frown.

She had no idea what to say either.

Jaydon had taken special care of her over the years just like family.

Without his help, Joanna and the children might have died. In a way, Jaydon was their savior.

So, it was impossible for Joanna to cut off her relationship with him and treat him as a stranger. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Bruce was playing with the children in the room.

Through the glass window, he saw Joanna talking on the phone with someone.

She looked gloomy and worried.

Judging from her expression, Bruce immediately figured out that the caller might be Jaydon.

He was burned with jealousy in an instant.

“Dad, catch it!” When Bruce was still in a trance, Davian threw the basketball in his hands at him.

Bruce did not see the basketball. It hit his face, then fell to the floor.

Even so, Bruce did not seem to notice it and was still staring at Joanna talking on the phone.

“Dad! Dad, what’s wrong?”

Bruce looked out of the window with a gloomy face, his gaze

unfathomable.

“Damn it! Jaydon is clinging to Joanna like sticky candy!” he thought angrily.

He had to pretend to be an idiot now, or he would definitely snatch the phone from Joanna and curse Jaydon.

That scheming man had been trying to seduce his wife.

He wished he could break Jaydon’s head with a punch right now.

“Jay, take care of yourself.”

“Okay, you too. If there’s anything you can’t handle, remember to call me.

“I will always protect you from behind.” Jaydon’s eyes turned red as he spoke.

He loved Joanna as much as Bruce.

However, he could only let her go.

It was because he knew that the person Joanna truly loved was Bruce.

When Joanna heard this, she felt even more upset.

“If there is nothing else, I will hang up.”

“Joann…” Jaydon wanted to say something but hesitated. He still could not bear to hang up.

It had been two months since he last saw Joanna and heard her voice.

He wrestled with himself mentally for a long time before he finally mustered the courage to call her. He still wanted to talk to her for a while.

Even if… it was just a simple conversation about daily life.

Bruce stood in the living room and gazed at Joanna in the yard, his eyes shining with murderous intention.

He struggled to hold back his anger, but two minutes later, Joanna had not hung up yet.

He could not take it anymore and rushed into the courtyard.

“Honey, who are you talking to?”

Hearing his voice, Joanna panicked. “Well, I’m not talking to anyone.”

“Jay, I’m hanging up. I’ll call you another day,” Joanna said and hurriedly hung up.

Bruce’s handsome face turned icy cold. He felt very uncomfortable and jealous.

He could not even fake his signature retarded smile.

Joanna hurriedly went forward and coaxed him gently, “What’s wrong?”

“Hmph! My wife ignored me, but she’s talking to someone else on the phone!” Bruce complained, full of anger.

“Come on, I have hung up. Let’s go inside.”

Bruce was still angry, rolling his eyes with a grim look.

What upset him the most was the ambiguous relationship between Joanna and Jaydon.

Even if they were just friends, he still found it hard to accept it.
