Chapter 697


    Ten minutester, Gael led Liam and L to the living room.


    Twowyers hade with them.


    It was clear that they hade prepared.


    “Mr. Miller, Mrs. Miller, please wait for a moment.


    “Would you like coffee or juice?” Gael looked earnest and asked out of courtesy.


    “Whatever.”


    “Okay.”


    “Lilian, get Mr. Miller and Mrs. Miller coffee.”


    “Yes,” Lilian replied. She turned around and went to get them coffee.


    Liam sat down on the sofa with a straight face. L sat beside him and subconsciously looked around


    the living room with her big almond eyes.


    The living room was super luxurious. She saw M’s paintings hung on the wall and an entire row of


    ss cabs filled with many expensive porcin jade artifacts.


    What a good house it was!


    L could not help but feel excited when she thought these nice things might belong to them in the


    future.


    The two of them sat there for nearly ten minutes.


    But Bruce and Joanna hadn’t shown up yet.


    Joanna had deliberately kept them waiting and wouldn’te to meet them until she thought it was


    about time.


    They were here to push their luck, but she mustn’t let them get it their way.


    A long whileter, Liam was already impatient from waiting. He had finished the coffee, but no one had


    “Where’s Bruce? Why isn’t he here yet?”


    “Oh, Mr. Everett is having lunch. I’m afraid he can’te to meet you now!”


    “What about Joanna? Why hasn’t shee out yet? How much longer do we have to wait? Does she


    deliberately stop Bruce froming to see us?


    “Damn it! This woman has gone too far. She’s controlling Bruce and has everything about Bruce to her


    own. Does she think she’s still Mrs. Everett? She’s crossed the line. Tell her to bring Bruce out now…”


    Liam cursed, looking like he could no longer


    wait.


    “Please wait a moment. I’ll go and tell them.” The servant finished speaking and hurriedly reported to


    Joanna.,


    Liam and L were getting impatient.


    Joanna slowly came out of the room and walked over. “I’m sorry to have kept you waiting for so long.”


    L was so angry that her face darkened. She mocked, “Oh, surprise! It turns out you know you’ve


    kept us waiting!”


    “Do you have any sense of shame? How could you keep us waiting for so long? I’m Bruce’s uncle!”


    Joanna didn’t bother to talk nonsense with them. “Why are you here today?”


    L sneered and said, “Let me introduce these two gentlemen here. This is Mr. Brycen, and this is Mr.


    Josh. They arewyers. We’re here today to discuss Mr. Everett’s custody with you.


    “We’ve already consulted the doctor. Mr. Everett can’t take care of himself right now. He needs a


    guardian.”


    Awyer then handed over an indictment. “Ms. Joanna Haynes, this is the indictment. You can take a


    look first.”


    “Huh, just leave it there for now!


    “We’ll wait for the court’s final judgment. Then I’ll tell mywyer to negotiate with you.”


    Thewyer smiled professionally. “Of course, if you don’t want to bring it to court, we can mediate it out


    of court.”


    “Mediate what?” Joanna asked in disdain.


    Liam didn’t want to argue with Joanna. “Where’s Bruce? You have to let hime out to meet us. I


    heard he had checked out of the hospital and came to see him.”


    “Come off it. Don’t be so hypocritical. What do you think you’re doing? You know it better than anyone


    else.


    “I think we all know if Bruce needs a guardian.”


    “What do you mean by that? Watch your mouth, or I’ll sue you for nder!


    “Don’t be too arrogant. Don’t forget that you’ve divorced Bruce. You’re strangers now.


    “As Bruce’s family, we can kick you out of the house. Know your ce and learn to be grateful!”


    “Oh, funny…” Joanna sneered.


    She wondered if they could be more shameless and unreasonable.


    Both sides were at daggers drawn.


    “Honey, who are you talking to?” Bruce walked over from the dining room with a silly smile.


    When Liam saw Bruce, he put on a kind smile. “Bruce, Uncle Liam is here to see you.”


    Bruce smiled awkwardly. “Oh, it’s very kind of you, Uncle Liam.”


    “Yeah.” Liam was joyful to hear that.


    “Come here. Let me see if you’re recovering well.”


    “I’ve recovered


    very


    “Yeah, I think so.”


    well. Thank you, Uncle Liam.” Bruce said and giggled like a fool.


    Bruce stared at Liam. “Uncle Liam, didn’t you say you wanted to bring me homest time? When are


    we going? Is it fun in your house? I want to go to your house very much.”


    Hearing this, Liam could not help but get even more excited. “Do you want to go home with me? You


    can have lots of fun in my house!”


    “Yes, yes! I do want to go…”


    When Joanna heard this, her face instantly turned pale. “Bruce, do you know what you’re talking


    about?”


    “Yes, I do. I’m going to y in Uncle Liam’s house.” Bruce answered and smiled foolishly.N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content.
