Chapter 525


    “Did you miss me?” Bruce smiled mischievously. He stared at her, eyes zed with desire.


    In response, Joanna merely rolled her eyes.


    “I miss you so much every night that I can’t sleep. Do you feel the same as me?” Bruce asked.


    Joanna rolled her eyes again. “Pervert!”


    Bruce smiled evilly at her. “I’m just expressing my true feelings. How am 1 a pervert?”


    After saying that, he smiled even more wickedly at her.


    From the beginning to the end, Bruce was not a good man, much less an upright gentleman who


    practiced abstinence.


    On the contrary, Bruce was a man with aplicated personality. He was a domineering, cunning, and


    scheming man. He would rather betray the world than let anyone betray him.


    Of course, he did not care to be a righteous gentleman.


    “Can we not talk about this?” Joanna frowned.


    Bruce looked indifferent. “If we don’t talk about this, what should we talk about?


    “Hurry up and tell me, how much do you miss me? I think about you every moment.”


    Joanna waspletely speechless. “How mushy! I’ve really got to hand it to you! You’re already in the


    detention center, yet you still have the mood to think about that.”


    Bruce felt very scornful. I am a normal man. It would be abnormal if I didn’t think about women.”


    Upon hearing that, Joanna truly had no words.


    “Fine! What you said sounds reasonable.” Joanna was toozy to argue with him. Bruce was already in


    the detention center, and there was no telling when he would be released. She would let him have fun


    with his words.


    “I went to inspect the Green Bay project today!” Joanna said.


    Bruce froze before making a sound of acknowledgment. “How is it?” he asked.


    Joanna answered, “Someoneined that we had illegally seizednd for the project, so it’s been


    called off.


    “Today, I went over to understand the situation. Donald told me about some problems that we currently


    have. He said that there was a problem with getting the approval for thend remation. Additionally,


    there are several ancient tombs discovered at the construction site.


    “Now, there’s a group of archeologists who insist on building an archeological base. They im that


    they want to protect the ancient tombs, but I feel that they’re deliberately causing trouble.


    “Donald said that it’s already been resolved, but everyone is on their annual leave now. We can only


    deal with the relevant departments next year.”


    When Bruce heard this, he stroked his chin. “Okay. It’s not a big problem. With Donald around to help


    you, you don’t have to worry too much.”


    Bruce acknowledged Donald’s ability.


    Joanna narrowed her eyes in sadness. She said softly. “It’s almost Christmas. Take good care of


    yourself.”


    “Okay. Don’t worry about me. I’ll be fine,” Bruce said.


    Through the ss window, they gazed deeply into each other’s eyes.


    Time gradually passed.


    In the blink of an eye, visiting hours were about to end.


    The desire in Bruce’s eyes vanished. In its ce was a deep longing. A deep look came over his face.


    “Honey, I love you so much.


    “Do you love me? I really want to hear you say that you love me.”


    When Joanna heard this, she tsked.


    She could not bring herself to say such mushy stuff.


    After holding it in for a while, Joanna replied, “We’re already an old married couple. It’s too mushy to


    talk about this every day.”


    An old married couple.


    He liked this form of address. At least, Joanna still treated him as her husband.


    Joanna suddenly remembered something important. “By the way, there’s something else that I want to


    tell you!”


    “What is it?” Bruce leaned close to the ss window and looked at her affectionately.


    Joanna hesitated for a moment before deciding to tell him what Jennie had said.


    What if Bruce was willing?


    If Jennie could get Bruce out, Joanna was willing to leave this rtionship and give them her blessing.

    “Well, Jennie came to see me,” Joanna said.


    Bruce immediately knew what Joanna was going to say.


    He snorted. “She said that she had a way to get me out of here, right?”


    Joanna’s eyes widened in shock.


    “She came to you, too?” she asked.


    Bruce said mercilessly, “Ignore her. She’s out of her mind.”


    “Did she tell you the same thing?” Joanna pressed him for an answer.


    “Honey, just ignore whatever she says.” Bruce smiled bitterly.


    Joanna countered, “But what if she really has a way?


    “If she can really save you, I can agree to her request…”


    Upon hearing that, a dark look came over Bruce’s face. “What do you mean by that?”


    “What I mean is, if she can really get you out of here, I’m willing to give you two my blessing.” Joanna


    replied.


    Bruce’s face fell. “What do you mean by that?”


    Joanna paused, not knowing what to say.


    Bruce said. “Joanna, I’ll tell you onest time. Apart from me, don’t trust what anyone else says.


    “Do you understand?”


    “Yes” Joanna nodded.


    As they were speaking, the guard walked in.


    “Visiting time is over!” he said.


    Joanna stood up. She said with a mncholy expression. “Then I’ll leave first, Bruce. I’ll visit you again


    in a few days.”


    “Okay. Bring Lilia along with you too. I miss her,” Bruce remarked.


    “I will. The children miss you too,” Joanna said.


    After Joanna finished speaking, she walked out of the conference room, turning back repeatedly to look


    at Bruce.


    Bruce also watched her until her figurepletely disappeared. Only then did he withdraw his gaze.


    “Mr. Everett, it’s time to return to the cell,” the guard said.


    Bruce stood up silently and walked toward the cell.
