Chapter 1196
Seeing that Joanna was sad and crying, Bruce felt even more heartbroken. “Silly, I’m fine. Don’t cry
anymore. If you cry, not only will my head hurt, but my heart will hurt even more…”
When Joanna heard this, she held back her tears and choked up.
“Cheer up, don’t cry anymore. It’s all my fault for being too arrogant. I even said I wanted to make you
the happiest woman in the world.”
“Now, you’ve become the most unlucky woman in the world. You’ve been burdened; you haven’t had a
good day since you’ve been around me. It’s all my fault. Joann. Do you have any regrets?” Bruce said
with a sad smile, touching her cheek with mixed feelings.
In the past, he was very confident. He thought he was the best man in the world and would not take no
for an answer.
He secretly vowed to be a perfect husband and father, making Joanna and the children the luckiest and
happiest.
But now, he finally knew what it meant to be lonely at the top. Humans could not win against what was
meant to be.
“Don’t say it. I think I’m already the happiest woman in the world.”
“Haha, don’t comfort me. You’ve suffered so much with me and reencountered danger repeatedly.”
“Sigh, I was too selfish. I couldn’t protect you but still forced you to stay by my side. Joann, I don’t know
when I can recover from my current state.”
“I think… I can’t hold on any longer!” Bruce said with a hint of melancholy in his eyes.
He rarely said such sentimental words,
He would say them occasionally, but it always sounded lonely and sad.
Joanna’s heart ached when she heard that. She covered his mouth tightly. “Stop talking. I love you.
Even if I died, I felt pleased being with you.”
“Really?” Bruce held her hand tightly.
“Of course it’s true.”
Bruce took a deep breath and looked at Joanna in pain. “Joann, I’ve already transferred most of my
assets to you and the children.”
“Overseas. I bought an island. It’s very nice. It’s not as chaotic as Greyport, and everything moves
slowly. If I’m unlucky to die one day, take the children and live there.”
“Don’t repeat such depressing words. We can get through the rough times safely and grow old
together.” After Joanna finished speaking, she took the initiative to lean forward and kiss his lips.
Her kiss deepened as she tried to convey her love and strength through her actions.
Bruce only hugged her waist gently and responded to her gently.
In the past, she would not have dared to touch him. Even if she did something intimate, he would get
extremely excited.
Then… there would be an endless entanglement.
Now, he could control his emotions very well. He would not deal with them like he did before when he
would not care about her feelings.
The two of them were kissing each other.
Bang! Bang! Bang! There was a knock on the door.
The two of them were shocked and reluctantly separated.
“Please come in.”
“Mr. Everett, bad news. The police are blocking our way in Porash.”
“What?” Bruce frowned.
“Kody and the others were sent to the hospital in Porash to pick up Boris. They were detained by the
Porash police on suspicion that they were linked to the recent gun attack.”
“Before the case is solved, don’t let Boris and Kody leave Porash.”
When Bruce heard this, he suddenly flared up and got angry.
Now that there was a shooting incident, there was some confusion. The victim’s people were detained
instead of investigating the criminals.
These police officers must have been bribed.
People thought and acted differently from each other. Even the police station had some corrupt officers.
Not everyone was worthy of the title of public servant.
