Chapter 458 Return Of Ex-wife

“Enough, stop talking. I don’t want to hear it anymore, and I don’t have the mood to think about these things.” Joanna’s eyes dimmed completely. Because of the contract, she had to stay by his side. But deep in her heart, she still couldn’t accept Bruce. Or perhaps, she couldn’t truly accept any man, including Jaydon Her heart had been sealed off, and she no longer held any hope for love. Bruce choked up, his eyes filled with endless disappointment. He had been too impatient. But then he rationalized it to himself. There was still more than a year left on the contract, no need to rush. “Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. I was just joking with you, no need to be so nervous.” Bruce concealed the disappointment in his eyes and gently patted Joanna’s shoulder. Joanna’s eyes sank, and she changed the topic. “Lilia is waking up soon. I’ll go prepare something for her to eat.” After speaking, Joanna walked out somewhat uneasily. At this moment, she really needed to calm down. At night, in Sherane Bay Villa. Lilia had already undergone the second round of chemotherapy and was recovering fairly well. Since Joanna needed to go back and get some personal belongings, they returned to Sherane Bay Villa… Naturally. Bruce followed along. Rarely having private space, Bruce certainly wouldn’t let it go and persistently badged her. After it was all over, seeing that Bruce had fallen asleep, Joanna gently lifted the blanket and opened the bedside table. She took out a small pill bottle from inside. Every time they slept with others, no matter how tired she was, she never forgot to take birth control pills. Joanna poured out a pill and was about to take it when Bruce suddenly rolled over and woke up. “What are you taking? Seeing Joanna secretly taking the pill, he thought she was taking antidepressants again. “It’s nothing, just go back to sleep!” Bruce instantly lost his drowsiness, sat up in one go, and said, “Bring it here and let me see. Didn’t I already tell you? Don’t take antidepressants anymore. “Those pills can really mess up your mental state if you take them too often.” “It’s not an antidepressant.” Joanna spoke and directly swallowed the pill. Seeing this, Bruce frowned. “Then what kind of pill are you taking?” Impatiently, Joanna looked at Bruce and said, “What’s the matter again? “Let me see it.” Joanna held the pill bottle and instinctively moved back. Unfortunately, Bruce snatched the pill bottle away. “Birth control pill?”
