Chapter 206
Margaret was in the garden.
She sat gloomily in her wheelchair. She was enraged.
Bruce hurried out to welcome her. However, when he saw that ominous look on Margaret’s face, he became uneasy. “Grandma, why are you here?
Margaret took a deep breath and said sternly. “You bastard, are you trying to drive me to my grave?”
Margaret got agitated, and she started coughing and clutching her chest.
The worried Roxanne quickly patted Margaret’s back and tried to calm her down “Grandma, you need to calm down! Be careful of your bealth“.
Bruce rushed to Margaret’s side as well. ‘Grandma, take it dowly. Don’t get so agitated”
Margaret tried to catch her breath. She raised her hand and pointed her trembling fingers at Bruce’s face and reprimanded, “Bastard, do you know how difficult it was for the Everett family to get to where we are today!”
“Your grandfather and father sloughed their life off to build our family business!”
“But you. You don’t even cherish what you have today at all! Sooner or later, you will destroy the Everett family’s accomplishments
Margaret rebuked Bruce harshly
“Grandma, don’t be angry” Bruce wanted to explain, but no words came out of his mouth.
He knew he had gone overboard. That was the first time he walked out on the company’s management.
“You’re so irresponsible. You are a ne’er–do–well”
“Grandma. I’m wrong! I promise it won’t happen again”
Despite Bruce’s repeated apologies and promises, Margaret remained infuriated.
What made her even madder was Bruce’s problematic relationship with Joanna Not only did he ignore his fiancee to be with Joanna, but he also cast his work aside
What would happen if things continued this way?
“Don’t give me that crap!”
“Where is that vixen. Joanna Haynes Tell her to come out quickly! I want to teach her a lesson!”
“Grandma, she’s sick. You’d better not see her.
Margaret had hit the roof before Bruce could finish. “Is she so precious to you that I cannot even see her?”
Bruce grimaced when he heard what Margaret said. “No, Grandma, it’s not like that. Just that it is not necessary for you to
see her!
“You’re so agitated now. I’m afraid for your health!”
Joanna and Margaret were both stubborn people, and both of them were in poor health.
If they met, they would undoubtedly get into an argument.
Chapter 206
It was better if the both of them did not meet at all.
“Go and get her now!”
“I want to know why she did not keep her word. She has promised me that she will not pester you anymore!”
“But in the blink of an eye, you guys have a secret rendezvous! How great is that?”
“Grandma!”
“Hurry up,
the two of you go!” Margaret was so furious that she could not take it anymore. She turned to her two caretakers and instructed them to get Joanna from the house!
The two caretakers did not dare to dither and hurried into the house!
In her usual pretentious self, Roxanne tried to persuade Margaret, “Don’t be angry, Grandma. Please forgive Bruce this
time!”
“Bruce has always been a career–minded person. He definitely didn’t do it on purpose!”
“It’s probably Joanna.”
Margaret was already angry with Joanna, but Roxanne deliberately rubbed salt in the wound.
“You don’t have to plead for him. I know better than anyone what kind of person this brat is!”
“Come here, I’m going to beat you to death. You disappointing brat, I will discipline you on your parents‘ behalf!”
Bruce braced himself and took two steps forward. Margaret raised her walking stick and started hitting him with it!
That grandson of hers was getting more and more outrageous!
Previously, he was constantly busy with work, and she often had to remind him to stop and rest.
But now, the billion–dollar business seemed to be the last thing on his mind as he frolicked all day.
Back in Bruce’s room, Joanna was lying on the bed.
She was drowsy and still in a daze. Suddenly, Lilian, the caregiver, barged in.
She looked at Joanna with a stern and aloof expression. “Ms. Haynes, Mrs. Everett wants you to go out and see her. Right
now!”
When Joanna heard that, she struggled to sit up!
However, her entire body was in pain. She was running a fever and did not feel like moving an inch.
She knew that Margaret was not an easy person to deal with. She was probably there to create trouble!
