Chapter 1252
The next day arrived.
Bruce got up early in the morning and prepared to go to the company. "It's Friday today. I'll go to the company. Starting tomorrow, I won't go to the company anymore. I'm prepared to accompany you on maternity leave."
When Joanna heard this, she smiled and looked at Bruce. "I'm giving birth, not you. Besides, it's only been more than seven months now. I can't give birth so quickly."
"That won't do. I have to accompany you," Bruce said seriously.
After all, during Joanna's previous two pregnancies, due to various reasons, Bruce hadn't been able to provide proper care and companionship.
This time, Bruce had already made a perfect plan, from the time Joanna was about to give birth to the baby to the time she was in confinement.
"Fine."
Bruce smiled dotingly and kissed Joanna gently on the lips, then on the forehead.
"I'm going, honey."
"Okay. Be careful on the road."
"Got it."
Bruce put on his suit and stuffed the documents for the meeting into the briefcase before going to the company.
There was a shareholders' meeting today.
At the same time, Bruce also planned to retire behind the scenes and prepared to nurture a successor to take over his work.
Joanna was about to give birth. Bruce planned to take paternity leave to be with her.
Then Bruce went to work.
Joanna stretched lazily and prepared to get up.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
These recent days had been some of the happiest and most content moments. Although there were some small frictions, everything was developing in a good direction. After washing up, Joanna went downstairs for breakfast.
"Good morning, Mrs. Everett," The servants greeted Joanna respectfully.
"Good morning."
Suddenly, Joanna's phone rang.
After breakfast, Grace called.
"Hello, Grace," Joanna said after she answered the call.
Grace's angry voice came from the other end of the phone. "Joann, something bad has happened."
Joanna was shocked and quickly asked, "What's wrong?"
"My brother is possessed. I don't know what's wrong with him. He insists on going to South Elmerton."
"What? To South Elmerton?"
"That's right. He has already booked a plane ticket and is preparing to go tomorrow."
When Joanna heard this, her mind went blank. "Why does he want to go to South Elmerton?"
It seemed that Jaydon was going to South Elmerton to look for Aria.
"Who knows what he's doing? I've already said that there's something wrong with his head."
Grace sighed and said indignantly, "I'm getting married soon. I asked him to wait until I'm done with my wedding, but he refused to wait. I'm really impressed." "Don't worry. I'll call him and ask."
"Alright. Hurry up and persuade him. I really can't believe it.
"He doesn't even care about his own sister's wedding. How can he be such a brother?"
"Okay. I'll call him now."
"So be it."
Then Joanna hung up the phone.
Joanna carried her big belly and prepared to call Jaydon as she walked toward the garden.
Nowadays, she would take a walk in the garden every morning when the sunlight was good, enjoying the fresh air.
Then Joanna called Jaydon.
"Hello. The number you have dialed is temporarily unanswered."
Joanna sighed and murmured, "Why doesn't Jay answer the call?"
Miranda accompanied Joanna for a walk and said with concern, "Joann, Mr. Grimm is an adult. He has his reasons for what he wants to do."
Joanna was a little uneasy. She sighed and replied, "Jay went to South Elmerton. I was really worried that there would be danger."
"Don't worry. Take care of yourself now. It's best not to interfere in other people's matters. Mr. Grimm probably went to look for that Miss Bridges. Miss Bridges is not easy to deal with. Don't provoke them again "Have a good life with Mr. Everett. That's better than anything else."
"Okay." Joanna nodded. She was still a little worried.
"You are at a later stage of pregnancy now. So you have to pay extra attention to these things. Just walk two laps. Don't tire yourself out."
Then they continued talking.
Miya suddenly appeared and greeted Joanna with a smile, "Hello, Mrs. Everett."
Joanna was shocked and looked at Miya suspiciously. "What's the matter?"
"I'm here to bid you farewell.
"Starting tomorrow, I'm no longer an employee of the Everett family."
Joanna frowned slightly when she heard that.
Generally speaking, employees who were fired would no longer be allowed to enter the Everett mansion.
Miya used some unknown method to actually come to the backyard again.
"Well, goodbye. I wish you a bright future."
"Thank you, Mrs. Everett. I also wish you a child soon." Miya smiled and took two steps forward. A strange fragrance wafted over.
When Joanna smelled this fragrance, her stomach was immediately stimulated and she vomited uncontrollably.
"Joann, what's wrong? Hurry up and drink some water to calm yourself down." Miranda quickly handed the water bottle to Joanna. "Ugh..." Joanna couldn't bear the nausea in her stomach and bent over, vomiting uncontrollably.
She vomited all the food she had eaten in the morning, but she still couldn't stop the nausea.
Miya sneered in her heart and put on a pretense. She said, "Oh, Mrs. Everett might have eaten something unclean.
"Miranda, quickly call the doctor over. I'll stop Mrs. Everett's vomiting first." As Miya spoke, she walked over to Joanna.
"Ugh..." Joanna smelled the fragrance on Miya's body and felt even more nauseated, to the point where she was about to vomit bile.
"Joann, are you okay? Someone come quickly!" Miranda did not dare to walk away. As she was vigorously patting Joanna's back to induce vomiting, she hurriedly shouted for the servants to come over. Two or three caregivers hurriedly ran over. "What's wrong with Mrs. Everett?"
"Ugh..."
"Hurry up and call the doctor. I'm afraid Mrs. Everett has a pregnancy complication and needs to be sent to the hospital."
"Okay."
"Ah!" After Joanna stopped vomiting with much difficulty, her stomach twisted in pain. It was so painful that she almost fainted. "Joann, what's wrong?"
"My stomach hurts." Joanna almost fainted from the pain.
Miya looked professional as she checked Joanna's belly. "Mrs. Everett, it seems you might have a pregnancy complication and could be at risk of premature labor. We need to rush you to the hospital immediately."
