“Oh! Mr. Everett…” Andy was cut off by Bruce.
“Don’t you understand what I’m saying? I want Joanna to become bankrupt within a year, do you hear
me?” asked Bruce.
Andy answered meekly, “Oh, okay! Yes, I heard you!”
“Call the Stark Group immediately and ask them to withdraw their cooperation with the Haynes Group. I
want to cut off the Haynes Group’s source of
supply, Bruce added angrily.
“All right. I’ll make the call now!” Andy replied.
Very soon, Andy made the call to the Stark Group.
This time, Bruce was determined.
He was going to completely destroy Joanna’s career!
After returning to Greyport, Bruce called for a meeting with his higher-level executives.
He busied himself until past nine at night.
After Roxanne called him three times, Bruce finally went home.
At the Sherane Bay Villa.
When Bruce entered, Roxanne was already waiting at the door.
“Bruce, you’re back,” she said.
“Yeah,” Bruce replied in a mu ffled voice.
Roxanne had an ingratiating expression on her face as she said gently, “Bruce, are you tired? I’ve
already run you a bath.
“Go and take a bath!”
Bruce replied coldly, “There’s no need for that. I’ll just shower before sleeping.”
The smile on Roxanne’s face vanished. “Then… why don’t you eat first? I’ve already cooked! The
dishes have been heated up both times.”
“Okay,” Bruce replied calmly.
Following that, Bruce went upstairs to change his clothes. He washed his hands before returning to the
dining room to eat.
Meanwhile, inside the restaurant.
Roxanne had painstakingly made five dishes and a soup. She was even considerate enough to cover
the dishes with plate covers to prevent them from getting cold.
“There’s steamed fish and prawns today…” said Roxanne.
Bruce made a sound of acknowledgment and did not say anything else. He picked up his chopsticks
and started eating.
When she saw Bruce eating in big mouthfuls, a smile appeared on Roxanne’s face. “Does it taste
okay?” she asked.
“Yup. It tastes okay!” Bruce replied calmly and ate a few more mouthfuls of rice.
“Bruce, are you unhappy?” Roxanne asked.
“No!” Bruce answered.
“But you look unhappy,” said Roxanne.
Bruce frowned. “I’m not unhappy. I’m just too tired!”
“Then I’ll give you a massage later…” Roxanne said.
“There’s no need. I’m very tired today and want to sleep early… I’m already full. Enjoy your meal,”
Bruce said.
With that, Bruce put down his chopsticks and stood up to go upstairs.
“Bruce, you’ve only eaten so little. Eat more!” Roxanne urged.
“I’m so tired today that I don’t have much of an appetite! Don’t cook anymore in the future. Just let the
ser vants cook!” Bruce said.
With that, he went straight upstairs.
Roxanne stood rooted to the ground with an awkward and disappointed look on her face.
Bruce was too perfunctory! Roxanne found his cold attitude unbearable!
Bruce returned to his room.
He did not even bother to take a shower and immediately lay in bed.
Bruce was seething with anger. He was fuming, so naturally, he was in no mood to coax Roxanne.
Hence, he appeared even more cold and perfunctory than usual.
Downstairs, Roxanne could not help but s o b.
In the blink of an eye, one hour passed.
Bruce got some sleep. After he woke up, he could not fall back asleep.
Thus, Bruce decided to go downstairs and take a breather in the courtyard.
As soon as he went downstairs, he saw that Roxanne was still in the living room and not yet asleep.
Bruce looked at his watch. It was almost midnight!
“It’s so late. Why aren’t you asleep yet?” he asked.
When Roxanne heard Bruce’s voice, she quickly turned around and wiped the corners of her eyes with
a tissue!
Bruce strolled to her side and realized that the trash can was already filled with used tissues.
Roxanne’s eyes were red and swollen. It seemed like she had been crying for a long time.
“What’s wrong? Why are you crying?” Bruce’s expression turned cold. He quickly sat down on the sofa
and put one arm around her shoulders.
“I-it’s nothing!” Roxanne sobbed and wiped away her tears again.
“Tell me what’s wrong. Is there something upsetting you?” Bruce asked with concern.
Roxanne was currently emotionally unstable, so Bruce was afraid that she would try to commit suicide
again. Therefore, most of the time, Bruce spoke to Roxanne in a gentle and concerned tone.
“If there’s anything you’re unhappy about, you can tell me!” Bruce said.

Chapter 146
“No, nothing…” Although Roxanne said that there was nothing, she had a plaintive expression on her
face.
Bruce paused for a moment before he said, “I’ll get someone to accompany you shopping tomorrow.
You can buy whatever you want!”
Roxanne raised her head and looked at Bruce with teary eyes. “Bruce, that’s not what I want!”
Upon hearing that, Bruce was at a loss for words. He did not know how to comfort Roxanne.
Roxanne added, “I’ve known you since I was 15 years old.
“It’s been eight years since we started dating, but I’m your girlfriend in name only. In actual fact, you’ve
never treated me as your girlfriend!”
When Bruce heard this, he forced a smile. “That’s not true.”
Roxanne could not help but start sobbing again. Tears rolled down her cheeks. “Do you despise me
that much?”
“No! What are you talking about? Why would I despise you?” Bruce asked.
Roxanne said, “If you don’t despise me, then why haven’t you touched me at all?
“I know that you despise me!”
The more Roxanne spoke, the sadder she became. “At this point, I don’t dare to ask for anything.” She
started to s o b again.
Bruce frowned and pulled her into his arms. “I really don’t despise you!”
Roxanne was still in tears. She choked and said, “Bruce, I know that you’re still together with me
because you feel guilty.
“But if you don’t love me anymore, you don’t have to do this!”
Bruce took a deep breath and forced himself to explain, “Roxy, I’ve always respected you. That’s why I
wanted to wait for us to get married before I touch
you.”
“But I don’t want to wait until after we get married. What era is it now? If you really love me, how can
you not be willing to touch me?” Roxanne asked.
Bruce froze and then looked at Roxanne seriously.
Roxanne looked at him with red eyes and a heartbroken expression.
After a while, Bruce pursed his lips.
“All right,” he said.
After saying that, Bruce did not say anything else. He bent down and carried Roxanne in his arms.
He decided not to drag it out any longer.
Bruce carried Roxanne back to her room.
Then, he gently placed her on the bed and began to kiss her cheeks gently.
Roxanne also stopped crying and wrapped her arms around his neck.
Unfortunately, no matter how much he kissed her, his body had no reaction at all.
Actually, it could not be said that he had no reaction. After all, he felt a little disgusted.
Ten minutes later, Bruce still did not start the main course yet.
Instead, he was getting more and more uninterested!
He was clearly a man who was easily turned on.
However, for some reason, Bruce’s body had no reaction at all when facing Roxanne.
Moreover, his mind kept replaying the scene whereby Roxanne was being bullied by those men.
When Bruce thought about that, he completely lost all interest.
Roxanne was also a little anxious. In fact, she began to wonder if Bruce could do it. Otherwise, why
could he not get into the mood?
Was he unable to do it? Or was he not turned on by her?
They continued like that for a while longer.
Another ten minutes passed.
Bruce had completely given up.
“Bruce…” Roxanne’s eyes were filled with doubt and disappointment.
Seeing the disappointment in Roxanne’s eyes, Bruce did not continue. He got out of bed and said,
“Roxy, perhaps I’m too tired today. That’s why I’m not interested at all.
“Let’s wait for another day to do this. Wait till I’ve had my rest.”
“It’s okay, Bruce! We can take it slow!” Roxanne hurriedly sat up from the bed, wanting him to try again.
When Bruce heard this, he was stone-faced and then left the room in frustration.
When he faced Joanna, he was clearly not like this! He could even be described as a maniac.
But why did he not have any reaction at all when facing Roxanne?
Roxanne watched as Bruce left.
Her eyes widened. Bruce had performed terribly earlier.
She could not help but compare him to Gavin!
“No wonder he didn’t touch me for all these years… It turns out that he’s sexually impotent,” thought
Roxanne.
At that thought, Roxanne shuddered.
If Bruce was really sexually impotent then what was the point of her marrying him?
Roxanne was completely dumbfounded now. She was unsure if Bruce was sexually impotent or if she
was not attractive enough for him.
Late at night.
Roxanne lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
Bruce had piqued her interest!
In addition, in the past month or so, Roxanne was hospitalized for the first half of the month and stayed
in the Everett mansion for the second half of the
month.
Over the past month, it could be said that she practiced complete abstinence.
In the past, Roxanne had to go on a date with Gavin every week. The longest she had gone without
meeting Gavin was no more than half a month.
But now, it had been more than a month since she last had sex.
Although Roxanne hated Gavin’s cowardice and poverty, she could not help but miss the joy he
brought her in the dead of night!
The more she thought about it, the more Roxanne felt like ants were crawling under her skin. She
tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep!
