The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna)

Chapter 1157

“The position of deputy director was personally appointed by the higher-ups. I have no right to

interfere.

“Besides, I’m about to retire. After I retire, only you will be qualified to take my place.

“Mr. Everett, the country needs you. The organization needs you even

more.”

When Bruce heard this, his expression became even more bitter. “Mr. Thompson, I’m really sorry. I

really can’t agree with it.

“And, my health is in a critical condition now, and my appearance has been disfigured. My wife is

currently in a life-threatening situation, and I truly cannot handle it…”

Seeing that Bruce still refused, Richard looked at him solemnly. “Mr. Everett, listen to me.

“The organization has suffered a heavy blow and lost many talents. If you leave, it will be even more

difficult for National Defense Bureau to move forward.

“The country is in need of talent. How can you abandon the country at this time? The rise and fall of the

country are everyone’s responsibility. Moreover, you’re the best soldier in the National Defense

Bureau.”

“Mr. Thompson, I really can’t do it. Please choose someone more suitable.” Bruce frowned.

“There’s no one more suitable than you,” Richard said with a serious expression.

“How about this? I’ll give you a year off. During this year, you can enjoy your family life.

“After I retire, when you feel that you’ve rested enough, you can come back to your post!”

“Mr. Thompson…” Bruce’s heart clenched as he looked at Richard with an extremely troubled

expression.

“Alright! Stop saying anything more, and don’t refuse anymore. If you refuse again, I really don’t know

what to do!

“Now, I’ll give you an extremely long holiday and keep your position. This is already the special

treatment I can fight for you.

“Bruce, the future responsibility of leading the National Defense Bureau to a brighter future rests in your

hands,” Richard said as tears welled up in his eyes.

The old man was almost sixty years old, and his face was filled with ravines. Every one of them was

filled with vicissitudes and responsibility.

Richard’s sincere request was really hard to refuse.

Bruce’s heart clenched as he looked at Richard with a troubled face.

This was what Bruce was most worried about.

“Mr. Thompson, you’re forcing me!”

Richard patted Bruce’s shoulder and said solemnly, “You can think so!

“There’s no one more suitable than you to take this place now. You’ve served in the organization for

more than ten years. I don’t think you want to see the organization decline, right?”

Bruce frowned. He did not know what else to say.

Hearing Richard’s words, Bruce really didn’t know how to refuse.

“Enjoy your holiday! Come back when you’ve rested enough.

“It doesn’t matter. As long as you don’t leave the organization, the organization can give you an

extremely long holiday. This is a special treatment that no one has. It’s also special treatment given to

you by the higher-ups.”

Bruce sighed.

“Alright!”

“You can call Ms. Bridges in. I want to talk to her alone.”

“Alright,” Bruce replied and walked out of the room with a serious expression.

Outside the room, Aria was waiting in boredom. When she saw Bruce come out with a serious

expression, she quickly went forward to welcome him. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

“Bruce, what did Mr. Thompson tell you?”

Bruce took a deep breath. “Mr. Thompson askd you in.”

“Me?” Aria was stunned for a moment.

“Yes.”

“Oh, okay,” Aria replied. She quickly adjusted her expression and pushed the door open.
