The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna)
Chapter 396

Chapter 396 Chapter 396

When she heard this, Joanna Haynes felt even more terrible.

During this period, she had indeed neglected the children's feelings. However, sometimes one had no choice but to resign. oneself to fate in life. It was not always possible to do as one pleased. "My babies, why do you think in this way?

"No matter what happens, all of you are the most important people to Mommy."

As she spoke. Joanna hugged her two sons tightly.

"If it weren't for Mr. Grimm, Mommy definitely wouldn't have lasted until now! And Mommy wouldn't have been able to raise all of you properly, so we must learn to be grateful!"

The children were young. They might not understand when Joanna told them these things.

Seven years ago, after her divorce from Bruce Everett, that was the most difficult period of her life. Depression coupled with pregnancy difficulties caused her to break down and almost commit suicide several times.

This was particularly true in the later stages of her pregnancy. No one could leave her unattended.

It was Jaydon Grimm who took care of her during that time, encouraging her, and spurring her on. On the eve of her delivery, she slipped in the bathroom and affected the unborn baby's condition, resulting in massive bleeding.

It was Jaydon who rushed her to the hospital and that enabled the child to be saved. If not for Jaydon, Joanna would not have lasted until now.

One must know when to be grateful and remember the good deeds of others. Therefore, even if Jaydon was a playboy, even if he had a woman outside, Joanna was still willing to marry him.

It was not because of love, but because of gratitude.

When he saw his Mommy weeping non-stop, Davian stretched out his tiny hand and gently wiped her tears for her. "Mommy, I can understand you. Don't cry anymore, okay?

"Irvin, you mustn't say such things to hurt Mommy. Mr. Grimm was so good to us and Mommy. He's hurt now. Mommy should stay and take care of him."

When Irvin heard this, he lowered his head in shame. "Mommy, I'm sorry! Don't be angry with me, okay?"

"Mommy won't be angry with you. All of you will always be Mommy's good babies."

Davian had always been surprisingly mature despite his young age whereas Irvin worshiped Bruce Everett more.

"Don't cry anymore! Everything will get better in the future." Miranda also wiped her tears and comforted the kids.

"When Mr. Grimm recovers. Mommy will definitely..." As Joanna spoke, her heart ached again.

It wasn't that she was unwilling to take care of the children, but Bruce had forcefully taken the children away from her.

If she wanted to take care of the children, she had to get Bruce's approval.

The nanny knocked on the door and entered. "Ms. Haynes, it's time for Mr. Davian and Mr. Irvin to go back."

Joanna wiped her tears and looked at the children with a pained but kindly expression. "You guys go back first! Mommy is worried if you stay here."

After all, someone had been secretly trying to kill her. If the children stayed for too long, they might be in danger.

Davian hugged Joanna's neck and kissed her. "Mommy, then we'll go back first."

"Mm-hmm. Be good when you go back. Listen to Daddy. Study hard and take good care of Lilia."

"I know, Mommy!"

The two little fellows kissed Joanna's face again before leaving very reluctantly.

At the parking lot, Bruce was sitting in the car and smoking one cigarette after another.

At this moment, he really wanted to go up and see Joanna. However, he was afraid of bumping into the Grimm family members. "Daddy, we're back!"

"Mm-hmm. Let's go!"

The two little fellows got into the car, and the driver started the car and drove out of the parking lot.

"How's Mommy now?"

Chapter 396

"Daddy, Mommy is very sad."

When Bruce heard this, a hint of disappointment appeared on his handsome face. There was an indescribable feeling in his heart.

In the ward, Joanna had recovered some of her strength and immediately got off the bed.

She intended to go and see Jaydon.

When she saw this, Miranda hurriedly went forward to dissuade her. "Joann, your body is still so weak. Rest more. You haven't slept for two to three days. If this continues, you won't be able to take it. Joanna took a deep breath and insisted on walking toward the door of the ward. "No, I'm going to keep watch over Jay!"

Outside the intensive care unit, Joanna kept watch as usual..

Through the monitoring screen, she could see Jaydon's situation.

"Jay, you must wake up! Dear heavens, you must give Jay your blessing. As long as he can come round, I'm willing to exchange my life for his..."

Joanna prayed ardently every day, hoping that a miracle could happen.

She already owed Jaydon too much. If she owed him her life this time, she would live in pain forever.

In the Grimm family's villa, after Jaydon met with such a major incident, over the past few days, some Grimm family members rejoiced while others wept.

His half-brothers were even looking forward to his death. After all, they could get a bigger share of the family assets with one less person.

Tim Grimm, on the other hand, was heartbroken. He seemed to have aged a lot overnight. Jaydon was his favorite child. He really could not accept the tragedy of an elderly man like himself sending his young son off on his final journey.

In the study. Tim sat on an antique regal armchair.

His face was full of wrinkles, making him look even more vicious and imposing.

Carmel Basil stood opposite the desk and looked at Tim anxiously.

After Jaydon met with a mishap, she was thoroughly terrified and fled back to Greyport overnight.

Today. Tim ordered someone to forcefully bring her to the Grimm family's residence. "Miss Basil, is the child in your belly really Jay's?"

"Yes... Yes..." Carmel replied fearfully.

"Give birth to the child!" Tim smoked his cigar and frowned with a sinister expression.

"Huh?" Carmel was utterly shocked.

"I want you to give birth to the child!" Tim blew out a mouthful of smoke and repeated

Now, his son's fate was unknown. No matter what happened, he had to leave a descendant for his son.

Carmel's eyes darted around and she gasped surreptitiously.

Most people in the entertainment industry were pragmatic and valued money above all else.

Although she liked Jaydon, he might die now. Even if he didn't die, he would probably remain in a vegetative state.

Carmel was still in the prime of her youth. Although she felt sad, she still had a long life ahead of her and could look for another man.

If she really gave birth to this child now, her life would be ruined.

Moreover, the Grimm family's interpersonal relationships were too complicated. Most of the family members were quite cold-blooded and tyrannical. It was very likely that after she gave birth to the child, the Grimm family would only acknowledge the child and not the mother. Carmel might not get any benefits.

"Mr. Grimm, L... I can give birth to this child, but I'm just worried that I can't afford to raise it..."

Before she could finish, Tim's eyes darkened. "What a joke. How can our Grimm family not be able to raise a child?"

"No, no, that's not what I meant. What I mean is I have to put the rest of my life in order before I can provide a good life for the child!"

Carmel stammered as her eyes darted around uneasily.

It was fine if they wanted her to give birth to this child, but the Grimm family had to give her enough money! Otherwise, she would not be so stupid as to give birth to this child.

"Just give birth to the child. You don't have to raise it yourself."
