Chapter 226
Bruce wanted Joanna to take the initiative to ask him to stay!
Unfortunately, Joanna’s attitude was very cold. She had no intention of asking Bruce to stay.
In terms of feelings, she did not give him any way out either.
Bruce frowned and left in a panic.
He had just returned to the car and prepared to return to the Everett mansion.
His phone rang then.
Bruce took out his phone and saw that the call was from Roxanne.
Although Roxanne called him every day, he only picked up once in a while.
“Hello!” Bruce answered the call coolly.
On the other end of the line, Roxanne initially thought Bruce wouldn’t answer her call again. She sounded a little flattered.
“Bruce!”
“What is it?”
Roxanne’s tone was gentle and soft. “I haven’t seen you in a long time. I… miss you!” NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
Bruce listened but did not answer!
He did not want to have any emotional exchanges with Roxanne now!
Since she insisted on giving birth, she could do it!
In any case, it was just spending some money to support her. Bruce would not invest any feelings into it!
Now that Grandma was dead, no one would pressure him anymore!
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up first!”
“Bruce, we haven’t seen each other for so long. I want to see you. Can you come back and keep me company fonight?” Roxanne’s tone carried a smidge of pleading.
Bruce felt a little disgusted when he heard that. He said coldly, “I’ve been busy recently. I’ll look for you when I’m free!”
He really didn’t want to see Roxanne again.
This woman was too scary and cunning! She had actually come up with artificial insemination as a method. It truly left him speechless and disgusted.
“Bruce, when do you have time? If you don’t have time to visit me, can I go over to see you… Roxanne wanted to say more.
Before she could finish, Bruce had already hung up!
“Hello! Hello!” Roxanne called for Bruce twice in a row, but a busy tone sounded from the other end of the phone!
Roxanne’s heart ached and her tears flowed uncontrollably!
Now, Bruce was taking her less and less seriously. Ever since Margaret died, his attitude towards her had become even more perfunctory and cold!
Thinking of this, Roxanne regretted it even more!
When Roxanne had pulled out Margaret’s ventilator, her goal had been to frame Joanna and completely separate Bruce from Joanna!
However, Roxanne had never expected that her gains would not make up for her losses! She had gone for wool and come home shorn. She had cut off her own protection!
Looking at the empty room, Roxanne felt even more desolate and lonely!
Even though she was living an extravagant life now and lived in a luxurious house valued at 200 million dollars, humans were still animals with emotions.
Whether it was physical or psychological, humans had a need for emotions! Roxanne was also fairly young, and her desire for love was at its peak.
Bruce had treated her so coldly. She truly felt empty and lonely!
Roxanne lay in bed in a daze, unable to sleep at all! She began to miss Gavin crazily again without realizing it!
She missed the happiness that Gavin had once brought her. She missed Gavin’s diligent, bootlicking personality!
However, she did not dare to contact Gavin now!
She had not contacted Gavin for a few months. She wondered how he was doing now!
At eleven o’clock in the morning…
Roxanne tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. Unable to hold it in any longer, she dialed that familiar number!
The call went through very quickly!
“Hello!” Gavin’s familiar voice sounded from the other end of the phone.
Roxanne’s heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly hung up the phone!
Her heart was pounding, and her cheeks were burning up to her ears.
Though she liked the feeling Gavin gave her!
At the same time, she also hated Gavin for being weak and incompetent. Other than being able to satisfy her with regard to that matter, this man was wholly useless in other aspects!
It was a pity that some people were born with despicableness in their bones. The more forbidden something was, the more they wanted to touch it!
Soon!
Gavin called back!
Beep, beep, beep!
The phone rang wildly.
Roxanne’s heart skipped a beat! She bit her lower lip nervously.
However, she did not dare to answer the call in the end!
She was now pregnant with Bruce’s child. If there were complications at this time, all her efforts would be in vain.
Moreover, if news of Gavin got out, she would probably become the laughingstock of the entire socialite circle.
Seeing that Roxanne wasn’t answering her phone, Gavin started texting again.
“Roxy, is that you?”
“I miss you. I love you. I’m really sorry!”
“I don’t dare to hope that you can forgive me. I only hope that you can live well! I’m an incompetent man. Regarding what happened that day, I wish I could kill myself!”
“Roxy, you must be happy! As long as you can be happy in the future, I would even be willing to give up my life immediately! I know I can’t give you anything!”
“If it’s possible, I’m willing to give my life to you! I know that you don’t care about my life! If you need it one day, I’ll give it to you any time…”
Looking at Gavin’s messages, Roxanne couldn’t help but cry.
If only Bruce valued her so much!
Unfortunately, reality was always so cruel. How could a man like Bruce love a woman as humbly as Gavin?
Text messages came one after another.
Each message was extremely passionate and sincere. One could see from the text messages that Gavin genuinely felt guilty!
