Chapter 18 Return Of Ex-wife
Frowned, Joanna looked at Roxanne and asked, “What are you doing?” Roxanne merely sneered. She turned around and slammed her head against the wall. In an instant, her forehead was swollen. Roxanne collapsed weakly on the floor and started moaning, “Ouch, it hurts. Don’t hit me, Joann, please. Help!” Bruce heard the noise and pushed the door open in a hurry. Then he saw Roxanne lying on the floor and covering her head pitifully. “What’s going on?” Roxanne looked at Joanna in horror and said weakly, “Joann, she hits me. She just hits me…” Bruce took a glance at Roxanne’s forehead. There was a bruise. “It hurts!” Roxanne sobbed, looking so poor. That finally convinced Bruce. “Joanna Haynes, how could you do that to Roxy? She is your sister!” Joanna tried so hard not to roll her eyes. “She hit the wall herself, and I never touched her. I had nothing to do with it.” “Oh, stop it! How can Roxy be so stupid as to run herself into a wall?” “Fine, fine, what do you want then?” Joanna looked at them wearily and with disdain. “I want you to apologize to Roxy!” Joanna narrowed her eyes at his words.
Arms folded, she stared coldly at Bruce and Roxanne. “This is no drama show. What’s the point of playing such little tricks?” she said icily. Roxanne said nothing, but deep down, she was laughing. There were no cameras in the conference room. So even if Joanna was innocent, who would know? Moreover, it did not matter at all what anyone else thought, as long as Bruce believed it. “Joann, I know you hate me and don’t want to see me. I’ll try not to show up while you’re around. I can even forgive you for attacking me, but not my face!” cried Roxanne as she turned to Bruce. “Oh, no, Bruce, my face. Will I be disfigured?” Bruce stole a glance at the wound and relieved her, “No, it is just a small cut. It will recover soon.” “Oh, no,” Roxanne wailed. “But we are supposed to take wedding photos next month! How can I do that with the wound? Will there be a hideous scar?” Bruce frowned a little impatiently. But his voice was still gentle. “No, there will not be any scar. Trust me.” Then, Bruce turned and fixed his eyes on Joanna. “And if there is any scar, even the slightest, Joanna Haynes, I will cut your fact for it!”
