Chapter 475


    “Bruce, can you tell me what you did?” Joanna looked at Bruce and asked between sobs.


    Bruce’s heart ached even more and tears welled up again.


    No one could keep clean in the dirty business world, let alone stay out of trouble.


    The punishment for his crime might be severe or light. He could be sentenced to death or be


    considered not to havemitted a vicious crime.


    It was up to how thewyer would fight for it. It would be best if he could be out of the hook after paying


    some fine.


    If it couldn’t be solved by money, he would ask thewyer to help him get a lesser charge so that he


    could be released from jail a few years earlier.


    “Don’t ask me anymore. It’s not good for you to know too much.”


    Joanna sniffed and punched him twice. “Bruce, you bastard! Why do you always make me cry?”


    “Stop crying. This is not the time to cry.


    “Don’t worry. I’ll be in jail for a few years at most. I’ll be out soon.


    “Be good when I’m not around.”


    Joanna didn’t answer and cried even more bitterly.


    Bruce raised his eyebrows slightly and joked around with her, “If I’m only sentenced to three or five


    years, you have to wait for me and can’t have an ambiguous rtionship with any other man.


    “Of course, if I’m sentenced to more than 10 years, you don’t have to wait for me. Find a good man for


    yourself and marry him. But you have to leave my property to our children. I’ll be pissed off if you give


    my money to another guy.”


    When Joanna heard this, she punched his chest angrily. “You bastard! what are you talking about? No


    one wants your stinky money!”


    As Joanna spoke, tears streamed down her face.


    Bruce chuckled and continued to tease her, “You’ve been hating me. Now I got what I deserved and


    might have to spend the rest of my life in prison. You should be happy, right?”


    “Why are you still in the mood to tease me at this moment?”


    “What can I do? It’s toote to regret now.”


    Joanna threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly, crying.


    At this moment, she really could not bear to part with him.


    All the hatred she had for him in the past vanished in an instant.


    She did not want to and she wouldn’t hate him anymore.


    Bruce raised her chin and looked into her eyes affectionately. “Come on, stop crying. Even if I went to


    jail, I might be able to do something.


    “If you have any problems that you can’t solve, you can ask me. I’ll leave all my most capable


    assistants and bodyguards to


    you.


    Indeed, even if he was put into jail, he might not lose control of the Everett Group. Joanna was just his


    spokesperson in the


    Of course, this spokesperson had to be someone he trusted the most. So far, the only person he could


    trust was Joanna.


    Although Liam was his uncle and had helped him a lot in business, Bruce knew that he had long

    wanted to rece him and control the Everett Group.


    Therefore, he would rather hand thepany over to Joanna than to Liam.


    Everyone in the conference room was in an uproar.


    “Do you guys think Mr. Everett is crazy? It’s unbelievable that he handed thepany to his ex–wife!”


    “That’s


    ‘s right! His ex–wife is just a little girl. What’s so great about her? How could he appoint her as the


    Everett Group’s president?”


    “Yes. That woman got everything she had by sleeping with men. If she were in charge of thepany,


    it would definitely be


    ruined.”


    The major shareholders patted their chests and stomped their feet as theyined. They were so


    worried that their teeth began to hurt.


    The vice president Tommy immediatelyforted everyone, “Don’t say that. When Mr. Everett


    inherited the Everett Group, he was only 20 years old. Everyone thought he couldn’t run thepany


    well.


    “But what happenedter? Not only did Mr. Everett manage the Everett Group very well, but he was


    also more enterprising than the previous chairman.


    “So, it’s very likely that Miss Haynes can do a good job as well. Since Mr. Everett personally chose her,


    there must be something special about her. We should just do our part.”


    “Hmph! Mr. Everett is doing this for his own benefit, not for the future of the Everett Group.”


    “How can you put it that way? Mr. Everett is thergest shareholder of the Everett Group. He has the


    right to hand thepany over to anyone!


    “If you have any objections, you can quit from the Everett Group.”


    His words rendered everyone speechless.


    Bruce owned 51% of thepany. Of course, he had the right to give his shares to anyone.


    A few shareholders left the office resentfully. These people were all supporters of Liam, so they were


    naturally dissatisfied with Bruce’s arrangements.


    The reporters were still waiting outside the office building. When they saw someoneing out, they


    immediately rushed. over. “Hello! We saw Mr. Everette to work just now. Is he in a good mood?”


    “Don’t ask me. I don’t know!”


    “Please say something. Will Mr. Everett resign because of the incident?”


    A small shareholder could not hold back his anger anymore and said indignantly, “Hmph! The Everett


    Group already has a new president!”


    His words instantly caused an uproar.


    “May I ask who it is? Is it the vice president Liam Miller?”


    “I’m sorry. I can’t tell you more at the moment.”
