Chapter 667
Miranda paused for a moment, her tone becoming more earnest as she said, “I think you should quickly
go through the process of remarriage! Delaying like this can lead to trouble.”
Joanna listened, taken aback.
Though she had considered this issue before, Bruce’s current mental state made it seem as if their
purpose might not be genuine if they remarried now.
“Don’t underestimate the importance of that marriage certificate. It can protect many things! It can also
prevent unnecessary troubles. Especially now, with Mr. Everett in this state, it’s inevitable that people
might harbor ill intentions. Though everyone knows about your relationship, it’s not legally protected. If
someone decides to make a big deal out of it, it could be detrimental to you,” Miranda reasoned.
Joanna’s expression grew serious, and she replied, “I understand, Miranda!”
“Go ahead and drink your milk. It won’t taste good if it gets cold,” Miranda reminded her.
“Okay,” Joanna agreed.
As Joanna was drinking milk, the door to the room was pushed open again. Bruce and the two children
came in, full of excitement.
“Mommy, look at the blocks we stacked. Tell us whose building is better!” one of the children asked,

“Wow, they all look amazing!” Joanna exclaimed in awe.
“So, which one do you choose? Which one do you think is the best?” the children probed.
“This one!” Joanna replied as she instinctively picked the building Bruce had constructed.
“See, I told you that yours is the best,” the children told Bruce.
“Alright, both of you, go wash your hands and get ready to eat. Mommy needs to talk to Daddy about
something,” Joanna said.
“Okay,” the children responded before they hurriedly ran out again.
The children-ran out of the room rapidly.
“Bruce,” Joanna said hesitantly as she gazed at him with a worried expression.
“Honey, what’s wrong?” Bruce asked with a foolish smile.
“Um… are you willing to marry me?” Joanna carefully asked.
“Yes, I am willing!” Bruce happily nodded.
Joanna’s heart sank, her eyes filled with complicated emotions. “Then next week, shall we go and
process the remarriage paperwork?” she asked hesitantly.
“Sure, that’s great!” Bruce replied with a bright smile.
Although Bruce’s mind was unclear, Joanna knew he would remarry her.
Before, she had been evasive and resistant.
But now, they had to proceed with the remarriage paperwork.
“Honey, kiss me!” Bruce said, and Joanna tilted her head slightly, receiving several kisses from Bruce.
In the blink of an eye, a week passed, and Joanna was finally able to get out of bed and walk around.
“Do you have all the documents ready?”
“Yes, the driver’s license, the divorce certificate, and the passport are all in place.”
“Then let’s go!”
“Yes, let’s quickly complete the remarriage process. Once done, everything will be above board, and
we’ll have legal protection. Others won’t dare to mess with Mr. Everett again.”
At City Hall, Bruce and Joanna had just arrived at the entrance when they encountered Liam, Evan,
and others.
Clearly, they had expected the couple to remarry and deliberately waited to intercept them.
“What are you doing here?” Liam and Evan asked.
“We’re here to register our marriage!” Joanna replied.
When Liam heard this, he gritted his teeth and said, “How cunning. You’re dragging Bruce here to
remarry you when he is not in the right mind. What motives do you have?”
“It’s a matter between Bruce and me; it’s none of your business!” Joanna replied, feeling irritated.

after his wealth?” Liam questioned.
Joanna was furious upon hearing this.
If she were after Bruce’s wealth, she would have remarried him long ago; there would be no need to
wait until now.
“Mr. Lurk, don’t slander me. The relationship between Bruce and me is well-known in Greyport. When
he was in his right mind, he proposed marriage multiple times. Our remarriage is to take better care of
him,” Joanna replied.
Evan sneered. “Hmph, I see you’re just after his money! Joanna, don’t think we don’t know your
intentions. You’ve been chasing after my cousin for over a decade just for his money. Now, you’re
tricking him into marrying you while he’s not in his right mind! Trying to seize his assets! Let me tell you,
don’t even think about it!”
“Evan, don’t slander me! Our marriage is none of your concern!” Joanna warned.
“Try me!” Evan stood in front of them, blocking their way!
But a fierce punch landed on his face before he could finish speaking.
“Ouch, ouch!” Evan cried out in pain.
“You dare to bully my wife? If you ever dare to raise your voice at my wife again, I’ll beat you to death!”
Bruce warned as he glared fiercely at Evan.
“Bruce, this woman is tricking you. Don’t fall for her lies!” the men warned.
