Chapter 715


    Bruce blinked slightly at Joanna, and a faint smile graced his handsome face.


    Anyway, he had already made his will in advance.


    He had already made his willst year, wherein all his assets were left to Joanna and the children. The


    will had been kept in a safe, so Joanna was unaware of its existence.


    If he were to pass away, all his money and shares of Everett Group would be inherited solely by


    Joanna and the children. No one else would be entitled to a single cent of his assets.


    And now, Bruce was willing to let Liam have custody since Liam desired it so intensely.


    If Bruce caused any trouble during this period of time, Liam would be responsible for facing the


    consequences.


    When Liam heard Bruce’s response, he was ted and wore a triumphant expression as he looked at


    Joanna.


    Joanna felt a lump in her throat as if stuck by a fishbone.


    “All right, it’s over.”


    It was quick.


    After a period of adjournment, another round of intense debate ensued in the courtroom.


    The judge announced the verdict.


    Custody of Bruce was granted to Liam.


    This result was far beyond Joanna’s expectations.


    Mr. Jameson was one of the most professionalwyers in Greyport, and perhaps even in the entire


    world.


    However, he lost thewsuit so easily.


    “Withdraw.”


    The judge delivered the verdict.


    Joanna appealed in court.


    However, this did not affect Liam and L’s triumphant mood. They looked at Joanna with arrogance


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    and said, “Joanna, do you have anything else to say?”


    Joanna had a solemn expression but couldn’t say anything.


    With the impending birth and exhaustion, she didn’t have the energy to continue arguing with them.


    The appeal must wait until the babyes out.


    “As Bruce’s guardian, I’m formally requesting you to vacate Sherane Bay Vi immediately and not


    bother Bruce again,”


    L was even more refreshed, and she asserted, “That’s right. Don’t assume I’m unaware of your


    intentions. Let me be clear, with my husband’s presence, you won’t get a single cent of Mr. Everett’s


    assets.


    “If you’re wise, leave Sherane Bay Vi before we take the necessary steps.


    Joannaughed and retorted, “Hmph, who are you to chase me away?


    “Even if you’re Bruce’s guardian, I’m carrying his child now, and we already have three children


    together. Just based on this, none of you can dictate what I should do,” Joanna asserted.


    “Hmph, if it weren’t for the fact that you’re pregnant with Bruce’s child, I would haye evicted you from


    Sherane Bay Vi today,”


    As Liam spoke, he directed his gaze at Bruce. “Bruce, I promise to take good care of you in the future!”


    L’s joy was evident as she urged Liam, “Hubby, what are you waiting for? Let’s bring Bruce home


    with us today!”


    “I am going home with my wife!” Bruce dered, hugging Joanna’s shoulder affectionately.


    “Uh… Liam frowned.


    His original n was to evict Joanna from Sherane Bay Vi as soon as he gained custody of Bruce,


    Then, he would take over the Everett Group at the same time.


    However, he had to take things one step at a time and proceed with caution.


    Indeed, Joanna’s pregnancy made him cautious about acting hastily. He didn’t dare to use it recklessly,


    as it could potentially impact public opinion and lead to unfavorable consequences for him.


    “Bruce, haven’t I mentioned before that I would bring you to my house? From now on, I’ll take good


    care of you and your life,” Liam said.


    He was eager to gain control over Bruce’s freedom as soon as possible.


    As long as he controlled Bruce, he would be controlling everything.


    “Hehe, my wife takes care of me. Uncle, you just need to handle the business.


    “My wife is about to give birth, and I need to be with her to take care of her,” Bruce exined.


    Liam choked on his words and subconsciously nced at Joanna’s belly


    Liam realized that forcibly separating Bruce and Joanna now would undoubtedly have a negative


    impact on both of them and those around them.


    Furthermore, considering that Joanna had already given birth to three children for Bruce, and now she


    was pregnant with another child, it was clearly unrealistic to simply kick her away and disregard their


    family situation.


    However, Liam was aware that he held the power to distribute the assets. As for how much he would


    give her, it depended on whether Joanna wouldply with his wishes and be submissive to his


    control.


    “Hmm, Mr. Everett’s suggestion seems reasonable. Let her take care of Mr. Everett for now! After the


    child is born, we can take Mr. Everett with us,” L proposed.


    “Okay, that makes sense,” Liam agreed, deciding not to furtherplicate things for Joanna.


    Now that he had this judgment in hand, everything was under his control.


    He was not afraid of Joanna’s tactics or schemes.


    “Then go back with her first! I will pick you up in a while.”


    “Alright, Uncle.” Bruce smiled at Liam.


    Feeling pain in her belly, Joannacked the strength to argue with them any further.


    “Let’s go too.”


    ”


    “Honey, be careful. I’ll support you,” Bruce said quickly, moving forward to assist Joanna as she was


    experiencing difort.


    Back in the car.


    Joanna could not help but look worried. “What exactly is going on?

    ‘Mr. Jameson is so professional. Why did we lose thewsuit so easily?”


    Bruce looked at her carefully. “Honey, are you angry?”


    Joanna sighed helplessly.


    He didn’t appear to be pretending to be foolish.


    How could she argue with him?
