Chapter 49
Chapter 49
Margaret arrived at the hospital early in the morning, only to discover that Bruce was missing. Anxiousness pulsed through her veins, causing her to almost lose consciousness.
“Where’s Bruce? Haven’t you found him yet?”
“Last night, Mr. Everett insisted on driving out of here. He wouldn’t allow anyone to follow him…”
“You bunch of losers. If something happens to Bruce, I’ll bury all of you with him!”
Margaret had a fit.
Being in her 70s, she had a weak heart.
Once she got mad, her heart would ache, and her brain would be deprived of oxygen.
The assistant swiftly whipped out an oxygen tank and put the mask on Margaret’s face.
She only calmed down a little after inhaling a few mouthfuls of oxygen.
“Hurry up and find him. We have to find him!”
Andy quickly reassured Margaret, “Yes, yes. We’re already looking. Kyle headed out with some people to look for Mr. Everett last night. I’ll call him now to ask if he has found Mr. Everett!”
Roxanne also hurried to the hospital at that moment after getting the message. “Where’s Bruce? Hasn’t he come back yet?”
“Not yet!”
“Could he have gotten into an accident? Maybe we should report it to the police!”
“It hasn’t been 24 hours. We can’t call the police. Besides, Mr. Everett may be deliberately preventing us from finding him!”
“Where in the world did he go? He didn’t take his phone with him, and he didn’t tell anybody anything. I’m worried sick!”
“Grandma, calm down first. I’m sure Bruce went out to take care of something. Maybe he’ll be back later!” Roxanne reassured Margaret.
Margaret’s face darkened as she clutched her chest. “How can I calm down? He’s so heavily injured. Where could he have gone?”
Just as she was talking, a commotion erupted in the hospital lobby.
“Hurry up, doctor! Somebody’s hurt!”
Covered in blood, Bruce rushed into the hospital with unconscious Joanna in his arms.
“Bruce!”
“Bruce!”
Bruce was distraught. He roared, “Doctor, come on! Somebody’s hurt!”
Seeing that it was Bruce, a group of doctors and nurses ran over and moved Joanna onto a bed.
Then, they pushed Joanna into the emergency room.
Margaret was relieved to see her grandson back. “Where did you go yesterday, Bruce? Oh my, why are you covered in blood?”
“Now’s not the time for questions, Grandina!”
Worried about Joanna, Bruce tried to make his way into the emergency room.
Seeing this, Roxanne immediately stood in his way and asked with a frustrated expression, “Did you go looking for Joanna last night, Bruce?”
Margaret interrupted. “Stop asking questions. He’s bleeding all over! Doctor, hurry up and get over
here!”
Just then, Jaydon hurried over and questioned, “Where’s Joann?”
Bruce scowled and didn’t answer.
Jaydon became impatient and grabbed Bruce’s collar. “I’m talking to you. Where’s Joann?”
Joanna has been sent to the emergency room. Let go of Bruce!”
Jaydon’s white shirt was also covered in blood. However, he ignored it and threatened, “If anything happens to Joann. I won’t let you get away with it!”
Bruce knew he was wrong. He could only sit on a stool outside the emergency room in dejection.
Seeing that, Roxanne felt her heart grow cold.
Judging from the situation, she could guess what Bruce had been up to last night.
“Bruce, what’s going on? How did you end up like this?” Margaret asked.
“Stop asking me, Grandma! My mind is in a mess right now.”
Bruce held his head, looking despondent.
“All right, I won’t ask you anymore. You’re injured all over your body. Hurry up wounds treated.”

“How could you just let them be? Go right now!”

Left with no choice, Bruce clenched his jaw and followed the doctor to get treated.
Meanwhile, Jaydon gave a cold snort and sat down on a stool on the other end.
Thirty minutes later, the emergency room door was opened, and a doctor came out.
“Doctor, how is she?”
“The patient’s left arm is broken, and she’s suffering from severe hypoglycemia. That’s why she passed out! We’re going to give her a plaster cast now…”
Hearing the noise, Bruce couldn’t be bothered with his treatment and ran over.
“How’s Joann? Is she okay?”
As he spoke, he tried to barge into the emergency room.
“Bruce, I’m warning you. Stay away from Joann from now on!”
“I’m also warning you to leave Joanna alone!”
The air between the two men turned hostile as they were ready to fight again.
Several bodyguards quickly gathered around Jaydon and surrounded him.
Jaydon usually didn’t take bodyguards when he went out, so upon seeing the situation, he could only hold himself back and give up.
Roxanne was upset. “Bruce, what’s going on with you and Joanna?”
Bruce took in a deep breath and looked at Roxanne calmly. “Let’s break up!”
Chapter 49 Boom!
His words struck Roxanne like lightning, and her heart dropped.
Never had she thought that they would break up so suddenly.
“Bruce, what are you talking about? You’re emotionally unstable right now…”
“I said, let’s break up!”
Roxanne bit her thin lip and burst into tears. “Bruce, no. Didn’t we just talk about getting married the other day?”
Bruce frowned and said in a cold voice, “I said, let’s break up. Don’t you know what the reason is?”
