Chapter 307
“Let’s forget about Greyport for now. It would be better for us to meet abroad after I finish my current work,” Bruce patiently persuaded in Antlenish.
Upon hearing this, Princess Martha’s voice carried a hint of disappointment as she said in Antlenish, “Bruce, are you afraid of being caught by the
media?”
“Mmm,” Bruce ambiguously responded.
“After all, you are a princess. If we were caught by the media, it would affect your reputation,” he explained.
Princess Martha instantly felt relieved and joyfully said, “Bruce, don’t worry. Even if we are caught, I can marry you!”
Upon hearing this, Bruce’s head started to ache even more.
The pace of this relationship development is too fast!
Deep down, he was still a traditional man. When it came to marriage, he wanted to carefully consider it.
Moreover, he still could not let go of Joanna! Being with Princess Martha was just seeking novelty!
Bruce remained silent.
Princess Martha asked again, “What’s wrong? Aren’t you happy?”
“Haha, of course, I’m happy!”
Princess Martha happily said, “Then it’s settled. I’ll come to see you next week!”
“Sure, let’s do that! Once I finish my busy week, I’ll come to see you!
“It’s more convenient for me to come to your place!” Bruce quickly reassured Princess Martha.
For some reason, he just didn’t want his relationship with Princess Martha to be exposed.
Princess Martha replied, “That’s fine too!”
“Alright then! I’ll hang up first!” Bruce heaved a sigh of relief.
“Okay, love you!”
After hanging up the phone, Bruce let out a long sigh, feeling a mix of emotions.
Princess Martha was a legitimate royal princess, and if their relationship were to be exposed…
To be honest, it would undoubtedly satisfy the vanity of many men to a great extent. However, Bruce inexplicably felt troubled by it.
In the Marhall Hospital of Venturas.
Joanna had already contacted a surgeon in Gaprington, and she had explained Jaydon’s condition and scheduled an appointment.
“Jay, this Doctor Carl is the most authoritative surgeon in Gaprington. Lilia has also made an appointment with him to discuss the surgery.
“I’ve already talked to Doctor Carl about your situation, and he said there’s a fifty percent chance of a cure. If things don’t work out here, we can go to Gaprington.”
Jaydon listened absentmindedly and suddenly interjected, “Joann, are you really willing to marry me?”
Joanna paused, looking somewhat surprised at Jaydon!
In the past, she had closed off her heart and refused to accept anyone’s feelings.
But now, once her heart opened, she suddenly felt that marrying Jaydon wouldn’t be a bad idea.
Even if he became disabled, so what?
In the worst–case scenario, even if their relationship were to break apart in the future, that would be a problem for later.
“Jay, why are you asking this question again?”
Jaydon looked at Joanna intently and said with a tinge of melancholy, “I’m afraid you will regret it in the future.”
Joanna smiled at him. “As long as you won’t regret it, I won’t regret it either.”
“Really?”
Joanna asked, “Why do you have such little trust in me?”
Jaydon smiled. “No, I just feel that happiness came too suddenly. I’m too happy”
“Silly!”
Time flew by, and another week passed.
With Joanna by his side, Jaydon’s mood improved significantly.
Apart from the lack of sensation in his left leg, most of his body had recovered quite well.
After the doctor carefully removed all the splints for Jaydon, he examined his condition again.
“Mr. Grimm can be discharged from the hospital soon,
“Ms. Haynes, Doctor Carl that you mentioned is renowned for his medical expertise worldwide. It might be worth it for Mr. Grimm to visit him. There could be a chance for a miracle.”
Joanna replied, “I hope so!”
“Let’s make the arrangements there. We’ll fly over next week.”
“Alright!”
Jaydon had been in the hospital for over two months, and today he was finally able to be discharged.
Joanna said to Jaydon, “Jay, pack your things here. I’ll go back to Greyport for two days to take care of some matters and pack my luggage.
“Next Wednesday, I’ll come to Venturas to meet up with you.”
“Alright, take care, and don’t overexert yourself!” Jaydon finished speaking and gently rubbed her head affectionately.
Joanna smiled at him and said, “Don’t worry! I’ll come back soon to be with you.”
“Joann!” Jaydon suddenly called out to her. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
Joanna stopped in her tracks, thinking he was reluctant to let her go. “What’s wrong?”
After hesitating for a second, Jaydon silently took out a ring from his pocket.
It was a 9.9–carat heart–shaped pink diamond ring.
It was the ring he had bought for Joanna when he first confessed his love and proposed to her.
Unfortunately, Joanna didn’t accept it at that time.
This time, he had his assistant find the ring for him.
“Joann, this ring was specially bought for you!”
“Would you… be willing to wear it?”
Joanna was momentarily stunned, but then she smiled and reached out her hand.
“Of course!”
Jaydon laughed and looked at her affectionately. “By wearing this ring, it means you have accepted my proposal.”
“Yes!” Joanna nodded firmly.
Jaydon felt a sense of relief and slid the ring onto Joanna’s ring finger.
Joanna’s fingers were long and slender, delicate and graceful.
Illuminated by the light, the ring on her finger exuded an air of elegance and grandeur.
“Joann, I love you!”
“I love you too!” Joanna smiled gently and put her face in front of him.
Jaydon then deeply kissed her forehead.
“For you, I will work hard on my recovery. I’ll strive to regain my health as soon as possible to bring you happiness.”
“Okay!”
They looked at each other and smiled.
Joanna also leaned in and kissed his lips. “Take care of yourself, I’ll be gone for two days, but I’ll come back soon.”
“Alright, remember to call me if anything comes up!”
“Yes, I will!”
After bidding farewell to Jaydon, Joanna hurriedly headed back to Greyport.
She hadn’t been in Greyport for over half a month!
The work in her company had piled up like a mountain!
She planned to spend one day handling the work in Greyport.
She would also set aside another day to deal with the work in Porash and Greene Town.
And, of course, she would make sure to find some time to meet with her children.
Returning to Greyport, Joanna checked the time and realized it was only a little after 3 p.m. Moreover, today happened to be Sunday.
After thinking for a moment, Joanna decided to give Bruce a call.
Beep, beep, beep!
Bruce’s phone rang!
“Hello!” Bruce quickly answered the call.
Joanna paused for a few seconds and said, “Urn, Bruce, I want to see the children today.”
“Today?” Bruce frowned.
Joanna used to make appointments in advance when she wanted to see the children..
Why did she suddenly want to see them today without any prior notice?
Bruce exclaimed, “It’s already afternoon!”
Joanna quickly said, “It’s only a little after 3 p.m. I can come directly to Century Plaza, and you can have the driver bring the children to meet me, okay?”
When Bruce heard this, he pondered for a while. He finally couldn’t resist asking, “Joanna, what have you been busy with lately?”
During this period, he focused all his attention on work and Princess Martha.
He deliberately ignored everything related to Joanna!
“Nothing much! Just busy with work.” Joanna replied, not wanting to share too much about Jaydon with him.
Even though she had made it clear there was no chance of them getting back together in this lifetime, she knew Bruce’s personality too well.
His possessiveness and need for control were too strong. If he found out that she was with Jaydon, he would probably go crazy and act irrationally.
“Is it possible?” Joanna asked again.
“… Alright.” After hesitating for a few seconds, Bruce agreed.
“That’s all for now!” Joanna hung up after saying that.
At 4 p.m, a nanny van and two MPVs arrived at Century Plaza.
As the car doors opened, Davian was the first to jump out of the car.
“Mommy!”
Following closely behind, Irvin also got out of the car.
The two little ones happily ran toward Joanna.
“Davian, Irvin!” Joanna had missed her children so much after not seeing them for a while.
She immediately ran toward them and tightly embraced Davian and Irvin.
“Mommy, why haven’t you come to see us for so long?”
“I’m sorry, my darlings. Mommy has been a bit busy lately.”
Meanwhile, Bruce also got out of the car, carrying Lilia in his arms.
“Mommy!” Lilia sweetly called out.
“Lilia…”
Joanna looked up and was surprised to see Bruce there.
Instantly, her heart tightened. “Bruce, why are you here too?”
Seeing Joanna’s uneasy and surprised expression, Bruce felt a bit embarrassed. “What’s wrong? Are you so nervous to see me?”
“Oh, no!” Joanna quickly denied it.
