Chapter 697
Ten minutes later, Gael led Liam and Lola to the living room.
Two lawyers had come with them.
It was clear that they had come prepared.
“Mr. Miller, Mrs. Miller, please wait for a moment.
“Would you like coffee or juice?” Gael looked earnest and asked out of courtesy.
“Whatever.”
“Okay.”
“Lilian, get Mr. Miller and Mrs. Miller coffee.”
“Yes,” Lilian replied. She turned around and went to get them coffee.
Liam sat down on the sofa with a straight face. Lola sat beside him and subconsciously looked around the living
room with her big almond eyes.
The living room was super luxurious. She saw Monet’s paintings hung on the wall and an entire row of glass
cabinets filled with many expensive porcelain jade artifacts.
What a good house it was!
Lola could not help but feel excited when she thought these nice things might belong to them in the future.
The two of them sat there for nearly ten minutes.

Joanna had deliberately kept them waiting and wouldn’t come to meet them until she thought it was about time.
They were here to push their luck, but she mustn’t let them get it their way.
A long while later, Liam was already impatient from waiting. He had finished the coffee, but no one had come to
meet them.
“Where’s Bruce? Why isn’t he here yet?”
“Oh, Mr. Everett is having lunch. I’m afraid he can’t come to meet you now!”
“What about Joanna? Why hasn’t she come out yet? How much longer do we have to wait? Does she deliberately
stop Bruce from coming to see us?
“Damn it! This woman has gone too far. She’s controlling Bruce and has everything about Bruce to her own. Does
she think she’s still Mrs. Everett? She’s crossed the line. Tell her to bring Bruce out now…” Liam cursed, looking like
he could no longer
wait.
“Please wait a moment. I’ll go and tell them.” The servant finished speaking and hurriedly reported to Joanna.,
Liam and Lola were getting impatient.
Joanna slowly came out of the room and walked over. “I’m sorry to have kept you waiting for so long.”
Lola was so angry that her face darkened. She mocked, “Oh, surprise! It turns out you know you’ve kept us
waiting!”
“Do you have any sense of shame? How could you keep us waiting for so long? I’m Bruce’s uncle!”
Joanna didn’t bother to talk nonsense with them. “Why are you here today?”
Lola sneered and said, “Let me introduce these two gentlemen here. This is Mr. Brycen, and this is Mr. Josh. They
are lawyers. We’re here today to discuss Mr. Everett’s custody with you.
“We’ve already consulted the doctor. Mr. Everett can’t take care of himself right now. He needs a guardian.”
A lawyer then handed over an indictment. “Ms. Joanna Haynes, this is the indictment. You can take a look first.”
“Huh, just leave it there for now!
“We’ll wait for the court’s final judgment. Then I’ll tell my lawyer to negotiate with you.”
The lawyer smiled professionally. “Of course, if you don’t want to bring it to court, we can mediate it out of court.”
“Mediate what?” Joanna asked in disdain.
Liam didn’t want to argue with Joanna. “Where’s Bruce? You have to let him come out to meet us. I heard he had
checked out of the hospital and came to see him.”
“Come off it. Don’t be so hypocritical. What do you think you’re doing? You know it better than anyone else.
“I think we all know if Bruce needs a guardian.”
“What do you mean by that? Watch your mouth, or I’ll sue you for slander!
“Don’t be too arrogant. Don’t forget that you’ve divorced Bruce. You’re strangers now.
“As Bruce’s family, we can kick you out of the house. Know your place and learn to be grateful!”
“Oh, funny…” Joanna sneered.

She wondered if they could be more shameless and unreasonable.
Both sides were at daggers drawn.
“Honey, who are you talking to?” Bruce walked over from the dining room with a silly smile.
When Liam saw Bruce, he put on a kind smile. “Bruce, Uncle Liam is here to see you.”
Bruce smiled awkwardly. “Oh, it’s very kind of you, Uncle Liam.”
“Yeah.” Liam was joyful to hear that.
“Come here. Let me see if you’re recovering well.”
“I’ve recovered
very
“Yeah, I think so.”
well. Thank you, Uncle Liam.” Bruce said and giggled like a fool.
Bruce stared at Liam. “Uncle Liam, didn’t you say you wanted to bring me home last time? When are we going? Is it
fun in your house? I want to go to your house very much.”
Hearing this, Liam could not help but get even more excited. “Do you want to go home with me? You can have lots
of fun in my house!”
“Yes, yes! I do want to go…”
When Joanna heard this, her face instantly turned pale. “Bruce, do you know what you’re talking about?”
“Yes, I do. I’m going to play in Uncle Liam’s house.” Bruce answered and smiled foolishly.
