Chapter 1240
In Ritz Villa, Joanna had been restless. The news online about Bruce was in different versions.
Although Joanna knew that the news of Bruce's death was fake, it made her very uncomfortable.
"Bruce isn't back yet?"
The servant replied respectfully, "No, Mr. Everett isn't back yet!"
Joanna looked at the time. It was already eight o'clock in the afternoon. Bruce had been out for an
entire day. Although she was worried, she resisted the urge to call him.
This damn bastard always made her worry and headache.
Until ten o'clock in the evening, still, Bruce hadn't come back yet.
Joanna's heart was in a mess. She could not sit still and could not help but ask the servant, "Is Bruce
not back yet?"
"Mrs. Everett, Mr. Everett hasn't returned yet."
When Joanna heard this, she frowned and became even more anxious.
"Give him a call and ask when he'll be back."
"Okay, Mrs. Everett." After saying these words, the servant was about to make a call.
Joanna frowned and said to the servant again, "Wait a minute. Don't tell him that I asked you to call
him."
"Okay."
Soon, the servant ended the call.
Joanna had been waiting uneasily. "How is it? Did he say what time he was coming back?"
"I haven't been able to get through to Mr. Everett."
"What about Darcy and Carson?"
"I couldn't get through to their phones either. No one answered."
When Joanna heard this, she felt even more uneasy. This damn bastard never told her what he was up
to when he was doing his business. He had already been out for a day and did not even call her.
Although the two of them were in a cold war, she was still very worried about his safety.
In the blink of an eye, it was already late at night.
Bruce had yet to return home, nor did he call back.
Joanna was so worried that she did not sleep the entire night. She was even more worried that
something might happen to him again.
The next day, Joanna went downstairs early in the morning to see if he had returned.
"He's not back yet?"
The servant looked serious. "Mr. Everett isn't back yet."
"Still can't get through his phone?"
"No, I still can't get through."
Joanna's heart skipped a beat. She could not help but curse, "This damn bastard, what is he doing
again?"
Beep, beep, beep.
She finally couldn't help but take the initiative to call him.
"Hello, the number you have dialed is temporarily unanswered."
She couldn't get through to him on the phone, so she quickly sent him a message through Messenger.
[Bruce, where are you now? Call me back when you see the message.]
Unfortunately, even after waiting until noon, Bruce did not reply to her message.
In the afternoon, Joanna couldn't take it anymore and planned to go to the hospital to look for him. She
couldn't get through to him, and she was really worried. She now didn't care about the cold war
between them.
At 3 pm, Joanna changed her clothes and went straight to the hospital with a few bodyguards.
In Greyport Hospital, Bruce was in the process of applying the blue laser beauty apparatus.
This was mainly to repair his skin tissue so that the red veins and scars on his face would recover as
soon as possible.
"Mr. Everett, you've been applying it for three hours. I'm worried that you won't be able to take it. Why
don't you stop for a while?"
"No need. I can take it!"
It was a little painful when one was in the process of this medical beauty project. When the blue laser
shone on one's face, it was like a fire burning. It pricked and hurt. Moreover, there was no way to use
anesthetics.
"We've already done an emergency repair. Mr. Everett's appearance will recover soon. But, if we do it
too frequently, I'm afraid there will be side effects."
"It's fine. The faster the better. Don't worry about the side effects!" Bruce lay on the beauty bed and
replied coldly.
What side effects would he be afraid of with his current body?
His body had already undergone three generations of genetic modifications. He now did not only have
human genes, but he also had the genes of multiple evolutionary creatures.
Moreover, there were two electronic microchips in his brain. It was already a miracle that he was still
alive. If there were side effects with the medical beauty project, any side effects of genetic Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
modifications in his body would be more serious than the side effects of the medical beauty project.
A few plastic surgery experts no longer had any qualms and began to perform various plastic surgery
repairs on Bruce.
Bruce's current appearance had already recovered to 70-80%. In a while, he could ultimately return to
his previous appearance. Of course, after undergoing so many medical beauty projects, his
appearance might be even more handsome than his previous appearance.
Downstairs in the hospital, a large group of gossip reporters and gossip bloggers were anxiously
waiting downstairs. They were all waiting for an opportunity to take action and get the latest information
on Bruce.
As soon as Joanna appeared, the reporters were overjoyed and rushed over.
"Mrs. Everett, what's the current situation of Mr. Everett?"
"The news of Mr. Everett's death has already been released online. Is it true?"
"If it's not true, then who is the person who passed away?"
"I'm sorry. I won't be interviewed for the time being."
"Did Mr. Everett make a clone illegally?"
"Make way. No interviews."
"Mrs. Everett, please say a few words!" There were too many reporters. All of them chased after
Joanna like crazy.
Joanna brought four bodyguards and a driver, but she could not get rid of the reporters.
"Arrange some more security personnel. Hurry up!"
