“Bruce…”
Roxanne buried her head in his chest shyly with a satisfied expression.
Bruce frowned and subconsciously pushed Roxanne away. He lifted the blanket and got out of bed!
He walked straight to the bathroom.
His head felt a little dizzy. He had to take a cold shower to wake himself up.
After entering the bathroom, he was still very dizzy!
Bruce turned on the shower and took a cold shower.
When he took a shower, he felt his body was sticky, as if he had done something last night.
However, he really couldn’t remember what had happened last night.
His physique was very good. This was the first time he had experienced something like last night.
It seemed that there was something wrong with the food last night. Roxanne must have drugged the
food. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have slept so soundly!
So, Bruce took a quick shower!
Then, Bruce walked out wrapped in a towel.
“Bruce, I’m going to take a shower.” Roxanne smiled shyly at him and went into the bathroom.
That expression of hers was clearly reminding him that they really did it last night.
Bruce changed his clothes and felt that something was wrong.
Then, he called his trusted bodyguard, Darcy, over.
“Mr. Everett, please give your orders!” Darcy was the bodyguard who had been by Bruce’s side for the
longest time. He was also the best and most loyal bodyguard.
“Take yesterday’s dinner to the lab!”
“Yes!”
“Go quietly. Don’t let anyone know.”
“Alright, Mr. Everett,” Darcy replied and immediately went to carry out the order.
Bruce lit a cigarette, squinted his eyes, and took a deep puff. His eyes revealed a vicious glint.
He hated being/schemed against the most!
If Roxanne really drugged the food, then this woman was really scheming!
He definitely could not keep such a woman by his side.
“Bruce, I’m done showering!”
When Roxanne came out of the bathroom, his hair was wet. She was wrapped in a towel and sat on
Bruce’s lap, hugging his neck.
Once a woman and a man broke through that step, they would be much more casual with each other.

Chapter 179
She used her actions to hint to Bruce that they did it last night.
Bruce was a little disgusted and pushed Roxanne away from his lap.
“Lilia will be discharged today. I am going to visit Lilial”
“I’ll go with you!”
“No need!” After saying that, Bruce had already taken his coat and left the room.
Roxanne smiled smugly as she watched Bruce leave,
From now on, she wanted to tie her fate to his. She would not let him get rid of her easily.
Meanwhile, Joanna was in the hospital.
Joanna had already completed the discharge procedures, and Tracy had also packed up everything!
“Sweetheart, you can be discharged today!” Joanna smiled gently at Lilia.
After changing. Lilia looked at the door in disappointment. “Mommy, isn’t Daddy coming to pick me up?
“Daddy told me that he would pick me up personally when I was discharged from the hospital.”
“Mommy told you that Daddy is very busy. If Daddy is busy with work, we might not see Daddy much in
the future!”
“Oh…” Lilia nodded obediently. Her eyes filled with unconcealable disappointment.
“What about my brothers? Aren’t they coming to pick me up?”
Joanna was at a loss for words, not knowing how to explain.
Davian and Irvin were now detained in the Everett mansion. Even she could not see them, let alone
Lilia!
However, she did not want to tell her daughter about these things between adults. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“Let’s go!” Joanna carried Lilia into the pram and pushed her out of the ward.
They had just taken a few steps!
Bruce, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, was rushing over.
Lilia had sharp eyes and saw Bruce first. “Mommy, it’s Daddy. Look, Daddy is here!” As Lilia spoke, she
raised her little hand excitedly and pointed at
Bruce.
Joanna looked up and saw that Bruce had already arrived.
He was still wearing a black suit today.
His hair was casually combed on the top of his head. It was messy and stylish, exuding a casual
handsomeness.
“Lilia!”
“Daddy, I thought you wouldn’t pick me up.”
“How could that be? Daddy promised to pick you up. How could I forget?” Bruce carried his daughter
out of the pram and kissed her little face!
Joanna looked at Bruce in a daze. ATears began to shimmer in her eyes as her rage shot through her!
“Bruce, put my daughter down!” As Joanna spoke, she had already stepped forward and was about to
snatch Lilia from his arms.
Chapter 179
She was afraid that Bruce would snatch Lilia away too!
Bruce was tall. He hugged Lilia and turned around, easily dodging Joanna’s snatch.
“Do you hear me? Give me my baby.”
When Bruce heard this, he glared at Joanna angrily.
“Mommy, don’t be angry!”
Bruce said coldly, “It’s best not to be so fierce in front of our daughter!”
“Lilia, Daddy will play with you today, okay?”
“Okay!”
“Where do you want to go?”
“Yes, I want to go to Daddy’s house to play!”
“Okay, Daddy will bring you there now!”
When Joanna heard this, she was even more terrified. She immediately stood in front of Bruce and
said coldly, “No, Lilia, hurry up and go home with Mommy.
“You’ve just recovered. You can’t go anywhere!”
“Mommy!” Lilia muttered softly.
“Don’t you hear me? You’re not allowed to go anywhere!” Joanna’s face darkened. This was the first
time she had spoken to her daughter in such a harsh
tone!
Lilia was so scared that her face turned pale. “Oh, okay!”
Bruce was even more furious when he saw Joanna shouting at her daughter like this. “Joanna, what do
you mean by doing this?”
“Bruce, what do you mean by doing this? Don’t you think you’re despicable?”
“I’m the father of the children. Shouldn’t I be bringing them home?”
Joanna cursed, “You said you wouldn’t take my child away. What you’re doing now is no different from
a bandit!”
Bruce took a deep breath and tried to convince Joanna, “I’ve told you before I won’t snatch your child
away. If you want to see the child, you can visit the Everett family anytime!”
“Of course, if you agree, you can stay with the Everett family!”
“Bruce, you’re being unreasonable. You know that this is impossible!”
“Why not?” Bruce asked angrily.
When Joanna heard this, her anger grew!
He and Roxanne were getting married. Would it not be ridiculous for her to stay in the Everett family’s
house?
She knew what Bruce was thinking!
He wanted her to be his mistress!
Even if they forced her, she would never agree to his dirty request, let alone serve the same husband
as Roxanne!
Chapter 179
“Give me my daughter!” Joanna was so angry that she wanted to carry her daughter back.
“Joanna, can you not be like this? Can you leave a good impression of me in front of my daughter?”
“Mommy.” Lilia was also trembling in fear..
Bruce quickly comforted Lilia. “Good baby, don’t be afraid. Daddy will send you home, okay?”
“Okay!” Although Lilia was young, she knew her daddy and mommy quarreled. Moreover, they
quarreled fiercely!
“Daddy, Mommy, can you two not quarrel?”
“Daddy and Mommy didn’t quarrel!” Joanna took a deep breath, afraid of scaring her daughter.
“Then, let’s go! I’ll send you home!”
“I don’t need you to send me back. I’ll send Lilia back!”
When Bruce heard this, he could not help but grit his teeth. “Joanna, I’ll say it one last time. I’m sending
you back now! If you continue to do this, I can only take Lilia away!”
When Joanna heard this, she glared at Bruce!
The two of them looked at each other like they were each other’s enemies!
Bruce was so angry that he could not help but think, “This damn woman’s temper was getting more and
more stubborn!”
Similarly, Joanna hated Bruce’s tyranny and overbearingness!
The two of them were in a deadlock!
Roxanne walked towards the two of them in her high heels with a smug smile on her face.
Bruce!
The two of them looked at Roxanne.
She was dressed very beautifully today, and her entire body was radiant.
“Why are you here?”
“I know you came to pick Lilia up today, so I came to see Lilia!”
“Lilia, this is aunt’s gift to you.”
As Roxanne spoke, she handed the exquisite gift box to Lilia.
Lilia’s face darkened, and she turned her head to the side. “I don’t want it!”
Roxanne plastered a smile to make herself look friendly. “This is a limited edition doll. There are only
100 of them in the world. It’s very difficult to buy!”
“This is a gift from me to you as your aunt. I’m giving it to you, so just take it. There’s no need to stand
on ceremony!”
Lilia pouted and rested her head on Bruce’s shoulder. “I know! I don’t want it. Go away! I don’t like you!”
How did this bad woman bully her mommy? She knew! Especially when she fought with her mommy
for her daddy!
Seeing that Lilia insisted on rejecting it, Roxanne smiled awkwardly and handed the gift box to Tracy.
“Keep it on behalf of Lilia, then!”
Tracy subconsciously looked at Joanna.
Chapter 179
Joanna looked at Roxanne coldly. “No need. Take your things away!”
“Bruce, look at my sister. She is treating me like an outsider!”
Bruce frowned. “Go back first! There is nothing to do with you here!”
“Oh, alright then!”
“Oh right, Bruce, you forgot to bring this along!” Roxanne said.
She quickly took out an emerald pendant from her bag.
Bruce’s mother left behind that pendant. He never took it off his side unless when he was bathing.
From this, it could be seen that they slept together last night!
“Oh…” Bruce took it casually and put it around his neck!
He had taken it off and placed it on the sink when he took a shower this morning.
Originally, this was nothing. Now that Roxanne had specially sent it over, everything became
ambiguous!
“Bruce, I’ll excuse myself first!”
“Go home early tonight. I’ll prepare dinner and wait for you at home!” Roxanne said as she deliberately
held Bruce’s arm intimately.
Then, she tiptoed and pouted as she asked him for a kiss.
Seeing this, Joanna felt even more disgusted!
She was obsessed with cleanliness!
When it came to relationships, it was either everything or everything!
She couldn’t accept sharing a man with another woman! When she thought of the passionate night
Bruce and Roxanne had last night, she felt so disgusted that she couldn’t accept knowing it!
