Chapter 1236Chapter 1236
After packing her luggage, Joanna sat at the head of the bed and suddenly felt sad in her heart. She
novelbinactually did not know where she should go.
Although she had many mansions under her name and as much as billions of dollars in assets, she got
all of these from Bruce!
The assets that truly belonged to her had been consolidated by Bruce and became his property.
Moreover, if she were to leave, what would happen to the four children?
If she took them all away, just the children’s luggage and her luggage were a lot of things, along with
the servants who took care of the children, the tutors, the nutritionist, and so on, adding up to dozens of
people…
Even if she did not find it troublesome, where could she go?
No matter where she went, Bruce would find her. No matter how hard she tried, she was just
tormenting herself and the children. It was meaningless.
She thought to herself, “Forget it, it’s better not to make a fuss. When the children are 18 years old and
can take care of themselves, I won’t have anything to worry about anymore…” Joanna’s heart turned
cold. She silently put her luggage away.
She was no longer a child. She could not leave in a fit of pique.
Sometimes, before marriage, a man would treat the woman like a treasure. After marriage, he would
treat the woman like a pair of worn-out shoes. It was probably because he had not completely tied the
woman up before marriage and there were changes at any time.After marriage, most of the women were tied up by their children and were completely tied up. They
would not abandon their children so easily to run away in a fit of pique. Therefore, men’s true faces
would slowly be revealed at that time.
At noon, the children had all come out to eat in the dining room.
Lilia looked at Joanna worriedly. “Mommy, did you and Daddy quarrel again?”
Joanna was stunned and fell silent for a few seconds.
Davian also looked at his mother fixedly. “Mommy, is it because of that bad woman surnamed Bridges?
I saw her chatting with Daddy in the garden this morning. She was even crying at Daddy. She was so
prétentious. It’s so annoying.”
Joanna pursed her lips slightly and looked at the children gently. “Babies, let’s just eat. Don’t let your
imagination run wild. Daddy and Mommy only bickered a little. It’s not as serious as you think.
“You should focus on your studies and not be distracted by miscellaneous matters. You must always
remember that Daddy and Mommy will always love you the most.”
Irvin was an optimist. He ate his food indifferently. “That’s right. Daddy and Mommy’s relationship is
stronger. They won’t be so easily sowed discord by a bad woman.”
Joanna felt a prick in her heart when she heard that.
“Kiss, Mommy…” Devin insisted on getting off the stool and sitting in his mother’s arms. After he was
injured, he became squeamish and especially dependent on Joanna.
“Come, let me feed you.” Joanna subconsciously hugged Devin and gently fed him.
After sleeping, Devin’s face around his eyes was so swollen that he could barely open his eyes.When Joanna was feeding Devin, Bruce came back from outside.
The servants hurriedly greeted him, “Mr. Everett!”
“Daddy.”
Joanna did not look up. As usual, she carefully fed Devin.
From today onward, she would not speak to him again. No matter what he did, she would not ask or
stop him,
Seeing Joanna feeding Devin, Bruce frowned. “Joann, don’t feed Devin. Let him eat by himself. Don’t
let him develop this habit.
“Besides, you’re pregnant now. It’ll be terrible if the baby in your belly is affected.”
As he spoke, he wanted to take Devin away from Joanna’s arms.
“Boo-hoo…” Devin cried as he hugged Joanna tightly.
Joanna carried her son and turned in another direction. She continued to feed her son gently and
patiently.
Children grew up quickly:
Children only needed and relied on their mothers for a few years. When they grew up, it might be
impossible for children to be close to their mothers even if their mothers wanted to.
Therefore, when her children needed her comfort, Joanna would try her best to satisfy them.
Bruce frowned and said gently, “Joann, are you still angry?”Joanna pretended she didn’t hear Bruce, she continued to remain silent as if he didn’t exist.
“Alas, haven’t you calmed down yet?” Bruce said as he reached out and planned to rub her head.
Joanna knew that she could not avoid it. She did not resist or respond to him.
“Honey, can you not do this?” Bruce bent down and put his head in front of her, wanting to get close to
her.
“Are you full?” Joanna gently asked Devin and put the last bite into Devin’s mouth.
“Yes, yes!”
“I’ll take you for a walk in the garden! You guys hurry up and eat. Do your homework after dinner.”
Joanna carried Devin in her arms.
“Don’t carry him. It will affect the baby in your belly. Let me carry him!” After saying that, Bruce quickly
came over to carry his son.
Seeing this, Devin looked aggrieved and resistant. “Boohoo… No, I want Mommy to carry me!”
Seeing this, Bruce’s hand froze awkwardly in midair.
Joanna ignored him and carried Devin outside.
Bruce stood in front of the window and watched Joanna sunbathing with Devin. There was an
indescribable feeling in his heart.
Then, he followed her outside.
“Honey, don’t be angry anymore, okay?“Can you not ignore me when you’re angry? Which couple doesn’t bicker? You’re really making me feel
terrible!
“I was wrong this morning. I said something wrong. I apologize to you solemnly, okay?
“Aria is already gone, and I don’t want to care about her anymore. Let’s not fight over some irrelevant
person, okay?”
