Chapter 668
“Don’t you dare be mean to my wife like that again. Otherwise, I’ll teach you a lesson!” Bruce clenched his fists, his face filled with ferocity.
Liam’s heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively took a step back. “Bruce, I’m your uncle. I’m doing this for your own good!
“She only wants to remarry you now as a deliberate attempt to take advantage of your confusion to try and gain control of all your assets.
“You must listen to me. You can’t remarry her. Quickly sever ties with this woman.”
When Joanna heard this, her faced turned green with anger. “Mr. Miller, it seems you are the one eagerly trying to control all of Bruce’s assets.
“What does it have to do with you if Bruce and I remarry? Who are you to interfere?”
Liam placed his hands on his hips and said indignantly, “I’m Bruce’s uncle. I won’t allow anyone to harm him!
“Don’t think that I don’t know what you’re up to. As long as I’m around, you can forget about manipulating Bruce!”
“You’re really unreasonable. I’ve never seen someone shameless like you!” Joanna was infuriated. If it wasn’t for her big belly, she would have slapped him.
“Joanna, I’ve taken this to court. During the proceedings, you can’t remarry Bruce.
“Furthermore, Bruce is alive and well. Regardless of whether your will is real or fake, it is invalid.
“Therefore, as a shareholder of the company, I demand that you immediately leave Everett Group and never step foot in the company again. Otherwise, I will accuse you of disrupting company order and stealing internal secrets of Everett Group.” Liam became more aggressive as he spoke, as if Everett Group was his personal private enterprise.
Joanna gritted her teeth in anger. “You’ve gone too far.
“With an uncle like you, Bruce is truly pitiful. When he wakes up one day and realizes how you have schemed against him, do you think he will spare you?”
Liam and Evan sneered inwardly when they heard this.

By that time, they would surely have transferred all his assets. Even if Bruce did wake up, they would find a way to control his personal freedom, ensuring he never had a chance to rise again.
“You don’t have to worry about that. It’s best if Bruce wakes up! However, if Bruce doesn’t wake up for the rest of his life, as his uncle, it is only natural that I will have to take care of everything for him.
“If you know what’s good for you, you’d better leave Everett Group and Bruce as soon as possible. Otherwise, you’ll be in jail for the rest of your life.”
Liam was smug. However, he was caught off guard when suddenly there was a loud bang.
Bruce swung his fist hard, landing a heavy blow on the left side of Liam’s chubby face.
“Ouch!” Liam wailed and staggered a few steps before falling to the floor.
“Dad!” Evan rushed forward in a panic to support his father.
Bruce took the opportunity to kick Evan hard in the back of his waist.
A crisp sound echoed.
Evan felt a sharp pain in his lower back, and he collapsed on top of Liam.
Both of them writhed in pain on the floor, grimacing in agony.
“Ouch! My back hurts.”
Upon seeing this, several bodyguards rushed forward to assist them. “How are you guys?”
“Don’t touch me. I’m afraid my bone is fractured.” Evan lay on the floor, his face contorted in pain.
“Bruce, are you crazy? How could you hit your uncle?” Liam covered his mouth as he staggered to his feet with the help of his bodyguards.
How could he withstand this punch when he was so old? His words came out of his mouth along with blood and broken teeth.
Bruce’s eyes regained their former fierceness and coldness. “I’m warning you. If you dare to shout at my wife again, I’ll beat you to death.”
“Ouch…” Liam’s mouth bled as half of his face began to swell.
The assistant beside him quickly handed him a tissue. “Sir, here you go.”
“Bruce, you… Ouch…”
Evan grimaced in pain. With cold sweat, he said, “Bruce, it’s fine if you hit me, but how could you hit my father?
“We’re doing this for your own good. You don’t know how to appreciate kindness!”
Bruce’s eyes narrowed, and he clenched his fist, ready to beat the father and son again.
He had never been a good-tempered man. If he was provoked, he would hit someone without hesitation.
Although his mind was not clear, his combat skills were still intact. No one could withstand his punches.
Darcy and Joanna watched with cold expressions, not intervening.
After all, Bruce was not in a clear state of mind. Even if he injured them, he would not have to bear legal responsibility.
Seeing that Bruce was coming forward again, Evan and Liam panicked. They quickly called out to their subordinates, “Hurry up and stop him. Don’t let him hit us!”
The bodyguards reluctantly stepped forward to intervene upon hearing the order.
Seeing this, Darcy took two steps forward. “What are you doing? I’d like to see who dares to make a move.”
Upon hearing that, the dozen or so bodyguards did not dare to make a sound.
Although they were also bodyguards, in the presence of Darcy and Carson, they were just a group of underlings.
They still remembered the last beating they received from Darcy at the hospital.
“Bruce, stop this. You can’t resort to violence.
“Dad and I are doing this for your own good! Why don’t you understand us?” Evan stated as he disregarded the pain and staggered to his feet.

“Hurry up and get lost. Don’t let me see you again!” Bruce spat.
“Joanna, I’ll see you in court. Just wait and see!
“You can forget about ever remarrying Bruce! Liam said as he helped his son leave the scene with difficulty.
“Let’s go too! Just Ignore them,” said Joanna.
“Okay, honey.”
Bruce instantly turned into an obedient follower and hugged Joanna’s arm with a silly smile.
Outside City Hall, several reporters were waiting.
When Bruce and Joanna appeared, they hurriedly approached them for an interview.
“Mr. Everett, are you here today to complete the remarriage formalities?”
Darcy, Carson, and the others immediately blocked the reporters. “Mr. Everett doesn’t want to be interviewed. Please make way for them. Thank you.”
With their help, Bruce and Joanna hurried into the lobby of City Hall.
They could have had a lawyer handle the remarriage formalities on their behalf.
However, it would have required providing many documents. Moreover, it would take at least half a month, which was more troublesome than handling it personally at City Hall.
Therefore, Bruce and Joanna didn’t ask a lawyer to handle it.
The hall seemed somewhat empty.
There were not many couples lining up at the marriage registration window. On the contrary, the line at the divorce registration window was quite long.
In today’s society, young people were getting married later. Moreover, the divorce rate was alarmingly high. Many young couples had self-centered personalities and refused to compromise, often leading to divorce.
