The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna) novel Chapter 32

Chapter 32 

When Lilia finally fell asleep, Joanna sighed and turned off the light, going out of her daughter’s room without making any noise. 

“Beep–beep.” The phone rang and gave her a fright. 

Joanna saw a strange number on the screen. 

“Hello.” 

“Joanna, where did you hide the children?” It was Bruce. 

It was obvious that he was quite angry at present. 

Joanna replied in a brusque tone, “What’s wrong with you? They are my children and have nothing to do with your family. Don’t disturb us anymore. 

I will sue you if you abduct the children again!” 

Bruce swallowed and growled coldly, “Tell me, where are the children?” 

“I have sent them to study abroad. Don’t waste your time.” 

Bruce explained, “Joanna, Grandma is getting old. She just wants to see the children…” 

“I’m sorry. But I’m under no obligation to meet your request.” 

She knew that if the children went to see Margaret, they would be forced to stay there. 

She knew how shrewd Margaret was. She would not release them easily. 

Bruce was lost for words. Being upset, he said, “Joanna, you have one day left. You will be screwed if you don’t take the children to see her.” 

“Beep. Joanna directly hung up the phone without saying anything. 

On the other end of the line. 

Seeing Joanna hang up the phone, Bruce was very angry. 

No one had ever hung up on him. 

“Beep–beep.” 

“Beep–beep…” 

Then Bruce made a dozen phone calls in succession but were all hung up by Joanna. 

The more she hung up, the more he called. 

Finally, a voice came from the other end of the line. “Sorry. The number you dialed is off. Please redial later.” 

“Joanna, you just wait and see!” Bruce gasped with anger. 

“Andy, get the word out right now that the Haynes Group is about to be acquired. Within two days, let the Haynes Group’s shares fall below the daily limit.” 

“Yes, sir.” 

Crack! The cell phone was slammed to the ground, and its screen was shattered. 

The next day. 

The news that the Haynes Group was facing bankruptcy and was about to be acquired quickly made headlines on the financial boards. 

Chapter 32 

The news rattled many investors. 

Soon after, the Haynes Group’s stock fell sharply. 

Seeing this, many small investors began to sell their shares of the Haynes Group. 

Just in one day, the Haynes Group lost hundreds of millions of dollars in market value. 

At this rate, the Haynes Group would soon face the risk of being delisted. 

In the Haynes Group. 

“Miss Haynes has not come to the company for three days. Will the company go bankrupt?” 

“Have you seen the financial news today? The company is going bankrupt!” 

“Will Miss Haynes run away with the money?” 

“If it goes on like this, it would be impossible to become one of the world’s top 500 enterprises. We need to figure out how to keep the company afloat first!” 

“She is just blowing hot air.” 

“With Mr. Grim on her side, she’s not afraid at all. But it’s not gonna work out for us. If the company goes bankrupt, I don’t know how to support the whole family.” 

“Yeah, she overreaches herself. I can’t believe she has signed the Valuation Adjustment Mechanism with Mr. Everett. Now, before the contract expires, she will be screwed.” 

“She didn’t come to the company these days. I guess she is too afraid to come.” 

“See, there’s been a lot of negative news about her these days.” 

“What a jinx she is…” 

Some employees were in a heated discussion. 

Just then, Joanna appeared unexpectedly behind them. 

An intern on the other side saw her first, and his face turned pale. He lowered his head and said, “Hello, Miss Haynes.” 

Other people also hurried back to their posts. 

“You guys don’t need to come tomorrow.” 

“What? Why?” They looked at each other. 

“Miss Haynes, according to the labor contract, if you want to lay us off, you have to give one month’s 

notice.” 

“Besides, you should give us unemployment benefits.” 

“Yeah, even Mr. Haynes cannot fire us easily. Why do you lay us off?” 

“Don’t worry. I will give unemployment compensation to each of you following legal procedures.”
