The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife

Chapter 294

The equally outstanding appearance of Bruce caught the attention of Princess Martha. Bruce was originally of mixed race, with a handsome and profound countenance. He had a robust and muscular physique, comparable to that of a male model. Especially when dressed in a suit, he exuded charm and confidence.

When a man like him stood amidst the crowd, he would immediately become the center of attention.

Princess Daisy and Princess Martha nodded to the onlookers in a friendly manner. Under the protection of security personnel, they gracefully walked toward the hotel.

A brand–new red carpet extended from the entrance to the reception hall. Both sides of the grand hall were already filled with celebrities from various fields.

Everyone had come to witness the charm of the foreign royal family members, so the welcoming ceremony became a symbol of the status of political figures.

Several notable politicians and celebrities from Greyport shook hands and exchanged greetings with Princess Daisy.

Princess Martha, not being the focus, didn’t have to deal with these formalities.

After the welcome ceremony, it was time for lunch.

Princess Daisy and Princess Martha, accompanied by several dignitaries, went to the restaurant together.

Bruce had to accompany them as well.

During the meal break, Princess Martha spoke up.

“Can you give me your phone number?” Princess Martha took the opportunity to discreetly ask Bruce in Antlenish.

“Of course,” Bruce responded in Antlenish.

Then, Bruce took out a pen, wrote his phone number, and handed it to Princess Martha.

Princess Martha took the note and teasingly blinked at Bruce. “I will get in touch with you!”

“I’ll be waiting.”

Princess Martha smiled slightly and entered her room.

Although not many people witnessed this scene, Jennie had been following behind Bruce all along, and she saw it as well.

Jennie’s face darkened. She felt a vague sense of uneasiness in her heart.

One was a royal princess of Novlis, and the other was a wealthy and powerful figure in Greyport. They seemed to be a good match.

Princess Martha was studying abroad. She had an open–minded personality and had been in several relationships. There had been quite a few media reports about her.

Anyway, she posed a huge threat to Jennie.

The welcoming ceremony had just ended.

Jennie deliberately looked sad and said, “Bruce, the ceremony is finally over!”

Hearing this, Bruce breathed a sigh of relief. “Yeah.”

“I think Princess Martha seemed interested in you.” © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Bruce smiled awkwardly upon hearing that. “How is that possible? I’m a divorced man. How could Princess Martha be interested in me?”

Jennie laughed sarcastically. “Why not? Women’s intuition is always accurate. Princess Martha definitely has feelings for you. We went to the same school when we were studying abroad. She has been in several relationships before…”

“Heh.” Bruce smiled awkwardly, not saying much in response.

He knew that his personality wasn’t suitable for dating a princess. But as the saying went, everyone had their vanity. Princess Martha was indeed beautiful, and even if she did have feelings for him, it wouldn’t be a bad thing.

Jennie paused for a few seconds and cautiously looked at Bruce. “Bruce, is it completely over between you and your ex–wife?”

Bruce hesitated, a hint of sadness appearing in his eyes.

“You’re not answering, so I’ll take that as a yes!”

“Well, I guess it’s over.”

Upon hearing that, Jennie’s bright eyes flickered, and she said with a hint of shyness, “So, can I pursue you?”

Bruce furrowed his brow.

“Jennie, don’t be silly.”

“Bruce, I’m not joking! I’m serious,” Jennie quickly confirmed. She had to seize the opportunity now. She didn’t want to procrastinate any longer.

If Bruce really caught Princess Martha’s attention, Jennie might not stand a chance.

Bruce’s brows slightly furrowed, and he politely declined. “Well, Jennie, I’ve always seen you as my little sister. Don’t have these scary thoughts. I’m not right for you.”

The smile on Jennie’s face disappeared, and she said seriously, “How do you know you are not right for me? We haven’t even tried dating yet. Why don’t we give it a shot?”

With that, Jennie instinctively grabbed Bruce’s arm.

“Stop it. We aren’t suitable for each other, for real.”

“Bruce, do you think I’m not good enough for you?”

“No, your brother would beat me up if he found out.”

Jennie quickly explained, “My brother has always known that I like you. Bruce, I’m not a child anymore. I’ve loved you for many years.”

After saying that, Jennie buried her head in Bruce’s chest, trying to hold him tightly.

Bruce’s expression darkened as he saw that Jennie was doing this in a serious manner. “Jennie, stop it!”

“I’m not joking. Just give me a chance, Bruce! We can try dating for a while. If it doesn’t work out, I won’t bother you.”

“Trust me. It won’t work out!” Bruce said and forcefully pulled his hand away from Jennie’s grip.

Jennie decided to go all in and tightly hugged Bruce’s waist, unable to be pushed away. “Bruce, I think we are a good match. And I wasn’t acting on impulse. I’m definitely more suitable for you than Joanna and Roxanne. I will love your children, I promise…”

Bruce, feeling annoyed, could only politely decline, “Jennie, I didn’t know you would say this to me. I’m not mentally prepared yet!”

Jennie, persistent, said, “Bruce, I can give you time to slowly accept me. Except me, no one is suitable for

you.”

Bruce felt even more frustrated after hearing what Jennie said. To be honest, he was still concerned about

Joanna.

Neither Jennie nor Princess Martha could replace Joanna in his heart. Unfortunately, Joanna disappointed him again and again. The more he didn’t want her to be involved with Jaydon, the more she ignored his feelings.

“I have something urgent to attend to now. I’ll have the driver take you back!”

“Bruce…”

“Andy, have Kody take Jennie back.”

“Yes, Mr. Everett.”

Bruce didn’t want to have any more entanglements with Jennie, so he walked away with a cold face.

Joanna was still busy with work.

Ring! Ring! Ring!

The phone rang.

Joanna picked up the phone and saw that it was Jaydon calling. “Hello, Jay!”

Jaydon’s voice came from the other end of the phone, gentle and magnetic. “Joann, are you okay?”

“Yeah, I’m fine! What’s wrong?”

“I saw some news online and I was really worried about you.”

Joanna smiled knowingly. “You don’t need to worry about me! Everything is fine.”

Jaydon let out a sigh of relief. “Don’t push it, Joanna. I know you too well.”

“Thank you, Jay!”

“Well, you’re doing it again. I’ve told you countless times. Stop thanking me all the time. It feels like we’re strangers.”
