The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife

Chapter 375

Chapter 375

Jaydon Grimm did not want to lie to Joanna Haynes, let alone make her regret.

“Joann, I’ve let you down! Previously, L…”

Before he could finish, Joanna interrupted him and comforted him with a smile. “Jay, don’t apologize to me.

“There are some things I don’t want to listen to either.

“I just want to ask you one thing. Have you made up your mind completely about getting married? Are you sure you’re ready to be a husband?”

When Jaydon heard this, the huge rock in his heart suddenly melted away. “Joann, I’m sure. Definitely very sure.

“I love you. I’m ready to be your husband. I’m willing to be with you for the rest of my life. Through thick and thin, through health and sickness, I am willing to spend my whole life with you.

“There will be countless unknown trials in the future, but I just want to say now that I will protect you for the rest of my life.”

Joanna took a deep breath and made up her mind. “Alright. You don’t have to say anything else. I’m willing to be your wife.”

“Joann…” Jaydon was instantly overjoyed. “Where are you? Shall I come and look for you now?”

“Alright. I’ll send you my location!”

wwwww

“Mm–hmm. I just want to fly to your side immediately and never be separated from you again.”

After Joanna ended the call, she sent Jaydon the information about her location.

The moment she sent the information…

Ding dong! Ding dong!

Bruce had sent another message.

“Joanna, where are you? I’m almost going crazy. I can’t accept you marrying another man.

“Shall we start over? Please give me another chance to make up for the wrongs I committed in the past.

“As long as you return to my side, I’ll agree to any condition! Joanna, I love you. I really love you.”

Bruce sent a very long text message to Joanna.

Jaydon’s recovery made him fe

Joanna Haynes did not want to talk nonsense with Bruce Everett anymore. “Shut up!

“I’m not asking you to wish me happiness. I just want you to leave me alone.”

Bruce gasped and was a little exasperated. “Joanna, Jaydon Grimm is not a good person. You won’t be happy if you marry

him.

“You’ll definitely regret it in the future! He’s much more fickle than me!”

“Bruce, please stop stirring up trouble. Please leave this place immediately.” Joanna was really afraid of Bruce. She was even more afraid that he would cause trouble for Jaydon.

Joanna Haynes. I don’t approve of you marrying him! You clearly love me. Stop lying to yourself…”

“Don’t flatter yourself!” Joanna panicked. Her emotions fluctuated wildly, and she only wanted to flee this place as soon as possible.

Thereafter, she abandoned the two men behind and quickly ran towards the elevator.

Joanna, stop right there!”

Both Bruce and Jaydon ran after Joanna at the same time.

When the staff saw this, their jaws dropped. “Oh, my goodness. Mr. Everett and Mr. Grimm are fighting again. This is simply too melodramatic.”

“Well, I can finally confirm that Mr. Everett really still has feelings for Miss Haynes! I’m so envious of Miss Haynes. To think that she can be pursued by two preeminent rich and handsome men at the same time,” a middle–aged female staff said wistfully.

“If you were in her shoes, would you choose Mr. Everett or Mr. Grimm?”

“Er… I’m not picky. Either one is fine.”

When one of the male staff heard that, he couldn’t help taunting them. “Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! A group of love– struck fools. Sigh…. can you guys guess who Miss Haynes will marry eventually?”

“Isn’t it obvious? It will definitely be Mr. Grimm! Miss Haynes said yes to Mr. Grimm’s marriage proposal in front of everyone!”

“I don’t think so. It’s very likely that Miss Haynes will remarry Mr. Everett. After all, they have three children. As the saying goes, children are the bond of love. With a bond, it’s not so easy to break free.”

The male staff smirked. “Why don’t we have a bet? Let’s bet who Miss Haynes will marry?”

“Crazy!” A few female staff rolled their eyes.

Meanwhile, Joanna fled from the office premises.

She drove aimlessly along Riverside Drive.

She just wanted to find a quiet place to calm her heart completely.

An hour later, without realizing it, Joanna had driven to the beach where Bruce brought her the last time.

Joanna parked the car at the spot where Bruce had parked before. Then, she got out of the car and walked to the reef she and Bruce went the last time.

Here, the scenery during the day was completely different from the night scene.

Joanna stood on the reef in a daze, breathing in the slightly salty and breezy sea air. In front of her, the blue sea stretched as far as the eye could see. From time to time, a few seagulls would fly over the ocean, and the Coconut trees were lined up by the road haphazardly in a picturesque manner.

The scenery here was indeed carefree and relaxing, and her heart gradually calmed down.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Her cell phone vibrated again, and she saw the notification indicating the arrival of new messages.

Joanna lowered her head for a look. There were already more than a dozen missed calls indicated on the screen. There were both calls from Bruce and Jaydon.

Ding dong! Ding dong!

Bruce’s message notification popped up. Joanna subconsciously clicked on it.

“Joanna, Jaydon Grimm has been sleeping around with other women behind your back. Don’t be deceived by him. He really doesn’t love you that much.”

Chapter 375

Following that, a few photos were sent over.

Joanna took a look. They were bed scene photos of Jaydon and Carmel Basil.

Previously, Carmel went to Gaprington and stayed with Jaydon for more than a week. During that time, Carmel took bed scene photos showing Jaydon and her together while he was asleep.

As Joanna looked at those images, she felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.

She no longer held any high hopes for love.

The truth was, she had agreed to Jaydon’s marriage proposal largely to repay his kindness.

After all, Jaydon met with a traffic accident and had lost all hope. Other than marrying him, she did not know how to cheer him up.

Moreover, during this period, she had also slept with Bruce, so she naturally had no right to criticize Jaydon, especially since Jaydon was an adult. Furthermore, in the past, he was the kind of person who could remain untarnished while cruising through a sea of temptation.

It was wholly unrealistic to expect Jaydon to suddenly give up the entire garden for a flower, metaphorically speaking.

Beep! Beep! Beep!

Jaydon called again.

Joanna paused for a few seconds before answering the call. “Hello…”

“Joann, where art you? I’m very worried!” After all, Jaydon was guilty of some clandestine acts and was very nervous.

“Jay. I… want to be alone for a while.”

Jaydon paused before asking tentatively, “Did Bruce Everett say something to you again?”

“No!” Joanna took a deep breath.

Since Jaydon didn’t want her to know, she didn’t want to expose his lie deliberately either.

Although there was no love between them, their deep friendship over the years had already gone beyond love.

To Joanna, since she wasn’t marrying for love, it didn’t matter who she married.

Since Jaydon loved her so much, she would feel happy and contented if she married him.

That being the case, she didn’t care about anything else. She was willing to marry him.

Jaydon hesitated for a moment before deciding to tell Joanna everything. He was indeed not a faithful and honest man, and he had also made mistakes that many men would make.

If Joanna regretted her decision, he did not really want to force her either.

“Joann, are you angry with me? I’m sorry. I want to confess something to you…”

el a strong sense of crisis again.

He could already feel that he was going to lose Joanna forever.

After reading the message sent by Bruce, Joanna’s heart ached slightly.

Her eyes became red–rimmed involuntarily.

Her love had already been given to Bruce without reservation.

However, he had destroyed her love with his own hands, making her no longer dare to yearn for love.

The experience was so painful that she didn’t dare to love him anymore.

Loving him… was too painful!

Joanna thought for a long time and replied via text message to Bruce.

“Bruce, I once loved you. That was already enough! Our relationship is over in this lifetime. Forget me!”

Bruce sat in the car and smoked one cigarette after another.

At this moment, he felt an unprecedented sense of anxiety in his heart. He yearned for Joanna to respond to him.

Ding dong! Ding dong!

The phone message notification finally rang out. Bruce’s heart skipped a beat as he hurriedly picked up his phone to look at

the message.

Soon, after reading Joanna’s message, Bruce felt as if he had fallen into an ice abyss.

The ashes from the cigarette butt containing sparks landed on his hand, but there was no reaction from him.

Bruce could not accept such an outcome.

He could not accept the sense of defeat that came from Jaydon Grimm snatching Joanna away from him. “Joanna, you will regret it!”

Joanna did not respond to Bruce again after receiving his message.

Chapter 376

She knew very well that Bruce didn’t love her all that much. He was just being possessive and couldn’t accept the fact that she was the first to fall out of love with him.

Half an hour later, Jaydon drove as fast as he could to Joanna’s side.

“Joann!”

“Jay… Joanna ran toward him with a smile.

Jaydon ran toward Joanna at an even faster speed. Then, he hugged Joanna tightly in his arms.

Joann, you’re finally going to marry me. I’m not dreaming, am I?”

“Silly… Joanna pinched Jaydon’s nose affectionately.

“Joann, should we hold the wedding first or collect our marriage certificate first?”

“It’s fine either way. I’ll go with whatever you say.”

“Then, let’s hold the wedding first. After the wedding, we’ll go get our marriage certificate!”

“Mm–hmm. Sure! Joanna’s eyes were smiling. Her beautiful, exquisite face was like a blooming flower.

Jaydon kissed her forehead and planted a deep kiss on her cherry–pink lips.

His kissing skills were very good.

He was gentle and focused and it made Joanna sink uncontrollably into the moment.

In contrast, Bruce’s kiss never took into consideration the other party’s feelings. It was always extremely aggressive and invasive, and left no room for the other party to resist or reject at all.

It was even more terrifying when she was doing “that” with him. He would torment her endlessly until she completely submitted to him.

Soon, the news of Jaydon Grimm and Joanna Haynes’s marriage spread.

The wedding was set for the 9th of August. The couple would be married at St. John’s Church, the largest church in

Venturas.

The moment the news was announced, it instantly caused an uproar throughout the country.

All the media outlets were scrambling to publish the good news. Even if the couple wanted to keep a low profile, they were

unable to.

After all, the Grimm family was also a preeminent wealthy family in Venturas.

Jaydon’s wedding was naturally very important to the Grimm family. Although Joanna was getting married for the second time, the Grimm family did not despise her at all.

After all, Joanna’s ex–husband was Bruce Everett. It was not embarrassing to marry Bruce Everett’s ex–wife. Joanna herself was also outstanding enough. Other than the minor blemish that she was marrying for the second time, she was perfectly worthy of Jaydon.

At Nephelene Manor….

This was Jaydon’s luxury mansion in the city of Greyport.

Although it could not compare to Bruce Everett’s luxury mansion, it was nonetheless a billion–dollar villa complex. The people living in this neighborhood were all preeminent tycoons.

“Joann, where shall we settle down after we get married?”

Over the past few days, Jaydon and Joanna had been going house–hunting for their marital home together.

Although everything was very rushed and many details had to be omitted, they still placed great importance on the general

process.

For example, they still took care of things like engagement gifts, choosing a suitable date so that caterers, decorators, and other services could be scheduled smoothly, selecting a wedding gown, and so on.

Joanna frowned when she heard that. She didn’t really want to live in Greyport.

“What do you think?”

Jaydon was also hesitant. Although he had houses everywhere, this was going to be his marital home, so he thought it was better to buy a new house.

Like Joanna, he did not want to stay in Greyport on a long–term basis. And he most definitely did not want to stay in Venturas on a long–term basis.

“Mm–hmm. There’s no hurry to buy the house. When we are free in the future, we can take our time to go house–hunting!”

Chapter 376

Jaydon didn’t say anything else after listening to Joanna. He walked over and hugged Joanna gently.

“Alright, I’ll listen to you! I’ll do whatever you say!”

Joanna smiled and looked at him equally affectionately.

Jaydon’s eyes flickered, and he instinctively lowered his head to kiss her.

When he saw that she did not resist, Jaydon bent down and picked her up with two arms. Then, he walked toward the bedroom.

Although the two of them were already at the stage where they were about to get married, they had yet to break through the boundary between men and women.

Even though Jaydon was very gentle, Joanna could not get into the mood and subconsciously resisted.

When he sensed that something was not right with Joanna. Jaydon quickly stopped. “What’s wrong, Joann?”

“Jay, 1… I… Joanna held her breath and looked at Jaydon somewhat nervously.

“Are you still unwilling to get intimate with me? We’re about to get married!” A hint of disappointment appeared on Jaydon’s handsome face.

Joanna took a deep breath and felt inexplicably flustered. “Jay, can we do this after we get married?”
