Chapter 486

"Zachary, we're now in the same boat! If you let me down, I won't let you off."

"Then, what do you want?"

Roxanne inched forward, her gaze piercing. "What do I want? I absolutely refuse to let myself be dumped by a man for the second time!"

Zachary was shocked by her gaze and subconsciously took two steps back.

After nearly a minute, Zachary's eyes quickly shifted, and his tone softened as he spoke. "Silly, I'm sorry... I was just too impatient. I apologize to you!",

Now, he found himself caught in Roxanne's grip, and for the time being, he dared not confront her head-on. He couldn't risk a situation where everything would be destroyed if she decided to reveal the truth. Roxanne smiled sinisterly and said, "Are you giving up so easily?"

"I give up. Please don't be angry. From now on, I'll listen to you, alright?" Zachary was quite skilled in appeasing women, quickly wrapping his arm around her shoulder and offering his apology. "That sounds right! As long as you don't do anything to hurt me, I still love you." Roxanne promptly humbled herself. "Oh, your head is bleeding. Let me have the doctor bandage it for you." "Okay..."

At the entrance of the hospital.

Grayson and his wife had just left the hospital when they bumped into Bruce and Joanna.

Bruce was the first to greet him. "Mr. Garcia, Mrs. Garcia!"

Seeing that it was Bruce, Grayson pushed his glasses up in surprise. "Bruce! Why are you here?"

Bruce's expression turned serious as he said with concern, "I heard that something happened to Jennie, so I came to see her!"

"Oh."

"How is Jennie now?" Bruce asked with a frown.

After all, their families had a long-standing relationship; he and Zachary had been close friends since childhood. It was natural that he came to check on her when something happened to Jennie. Grayson looked anxious. He said worriedly, "Jennie hasn't woken up yet. How could something like this happen!"

Bruce sincerely comforted him. "Don't worry too much. I just called the director and asked him to arrange the best doctor for Jennie!"

"Thank you."

"You're welcome. We'll go in and take a look at Jennie!"

Chapter 486 "Bye."

After saying goodbye, Grayson and his wife got into the car. Bruce and Joanna walked towards the ward.

At the entrance of the ICU ward.

Zachary, with his forehead bandaged, sat on the chair with a downcast and dispirited expression.

Bruce shouted warmly, "Zachary!"

Zachary looked up and saw that it was Bruce. His face was filled with shock. "Bruce, you, why are you here?"

As he spoke, Zachary abruptly rose to his feet, casting an uneasy gaze at Bruce. He seemed to suspect that Bruce had arrived to hold him accountable for something!

"I heard that something happened to Jennie, so I came over." After Bruce finished speaking, he gestured for his assistant to hand over the flowers and nutritional supplements.

Seeing this, Zachary felt a little more at ease. "Oh, so that's how it is!"

Roxanne smiled at Joanna. "Joanna, you're here to see Miss Garcia too?"

Joanna looked at Roxanne in surprise. "Roxy, why are you here too?"

"I'm now Mr. Garcia's personal secretary. Of course, I have to serve Mr. Garcia twenty-four hours a day."

"Oh, are you

tired?"

Roxanne smiled sweetly. "No! Mr. Garcia treats me very well."

"That's good." Joanna patted her shoulder gently.

Roxanne looked at Bruce sweetly and said, "Hello, Mr. Everett!"

Bruce did not seem to hear her. He only stared at Zachary's forehead. "Zachary, what happened to your head?"

"Oh, it's nothing. I accidentally bumped into it!"

Bruce stared at him with a half-smile, his gaze seemingly mocking. "Are you overworking yourself? Take care of your health as well. Don't exhaust yourself over Jennie and end up damaging your own well- being."

Zachary did not dare to look into his eyes and stammered, "I... I'm fine. Don't worry about me. That... Jennie will definitely be fine."

"Good. Anything you need help with? Just give me a call"

"Well, thank you for coming to see Jennie. She'll be very happy!"

When Bruce heard this, he paused slightly. "Then we'll leave first! Call me if there's anything."

"Yup!"

"Joann, let's go!"

Joanna also said goodbye to Roxanne. "Roxy, I'm leaving first. Call me if anything happens.

Chapter 486

Take care of yourself."

"Got it..."

Bruce hugged Joanna's shoulder affectionately and left.

As she watched their retreating figures, Roxanne's heart seemed to be pounded by a hammer a few times, and her eyes quickly formed an arc. Bruce should have belonged to her.

Now, Bruce unexpectedly entrusted billions of dollars to Joanna for management, which left Roxanne feeling extremely jealous and resentful.

"Bruce, Joanna, enjoy your moment of triumph while it lasts. I won't allow you to go. unscathed," Roxanne vowed, her nails sinking mercilessly into her skin as she harbored a deep and vengeful curse against them in her heart.

Zachary sat on the stool. "Ouch, it scared me. I thought Bruce was here to cause trouble."

Upon hearing that, Roxanne cast a gloomy and contemptuous glance at him. "Hmm, such cowardice. You trembled like a mouse in the presence of Bruce. No wonder you'll never amount to anything compared to him!"
