The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna) novel Chapter 553

Chapter 553 

When Joanna returned to her office, she was still filled with anger. 

Those snobs began to cause trouble when they found out that she might have fallen out with Bruce. 

Bruce’s case was about to start. Judging from Jennie’s tone, Joanna could tell they seemed to have reached an agreement. 

After Bruce was released from prison, the first thing he would do would probably be to get even with her. Even so, Joanna would do her best at work before his return. 

When Joanna was in a trance, she heard someone knock on the door. 

“Come in” 

Mark and David pushed the door open and entered. They placed a pile of documents in front of Joanna and said. respectfully. “Miss Haynes, this is the report on our recent work.“. 

“The other managers‘ work reports will be sent over immediately.” 

Joanna frowned 

She was asking the board members to report on their work, not the employees. 

It seemed like the employees who had just participated in the meeting were frightened. 

“Alright, just leave them on the table.” 

“Miss Haynes, do you have any other instructions?” 

“No. That’s all.” 

“Then we’ll go out first.” 

“Okay.” 

After Mark and David left, Joanna stroked her forehead and called Donald. 

She wanted to ask if the Green Bay project was done. 

Ring! Ring! 

Hearing his phone ring. Donald answered quickly, “Hello.” 

“Mr. Hall, it’s me, Joanna.” 

“Oh, Miss Haynes! How may I help you?” Donald asked respectfully. 

“How is the Green Bay project going?” 

Donald pondered for a moment before he answered, “Well, it’s in progress. There should be a result soon.” 

“When can the construction site be resumed?” 

“Uh, we’re waiting for a document to be approved. As soon as it’s approved, we can get back to work. 

“Miss Haynes, don’t worry. I’ve been keeping an eye on it. I’ll report to you if there’s any news.” 

“Alright! Thank you for your hard work.” 

After hesitating for a while, Donald asked tentatively, “Well, Miss Haynes, when will Mr. Everett come out?” 

“Why are you asking about this?” 

“I have something to report to Mr. Everett.” 

When Joanna heard this, she took a deep breath and said, “It’s the same if you tell me. I’ll tell him.” 

“Uh…” Donald hesitated for a moment and smiled awkwardly. “Forget it. Let’s talk about it after Mr. Everett comes out.” 

Joanna was a little upset, but it would be inappropriate to ask further if Donald didn’t want to tell her. 

“I don’t have anything else. I’ll hang up then.” With that, Joanna hung up. 

“Forget it. Since they don’t trust me, I don’t need to worry so much,” she said inwardly. 

At the thought of this, Joanna decided to finish the work at hand and leave the other businesses to Bruce. 

In the blink of an eye, it was already four o’clock in the afternoon 

Small shareholders sent in their work reports one after another. By five o’clock, more than half of the company’s 20 shareholders had completed their work reports. 

Of course, there were still a few unyielding ones. Liam, Ms. Linken, Mr. Young, and a few other major shareholders hadn’t

reported on their work yet. 

Joanna flipped through the work reports on her table and then made a list of people who had not done the work report yet. 

Since they did not listen to her, she would not show mercy. 

After she listed the names of those people, Joanna pressed the button on the wall. 

Mark was in his office when he saw the service light turn on. 

He hurried over to Joanna’s office and knocked on the door. 

*Please come in.” 

Mark pushed open the door and entered. “Miss Haynes, what can I do for you?” said he respectfully. 

“Demagnetize these people’s work cards. They are not allowed to enter the Everett Group’s office tomorrow,” Joanna said coldly and handed Mark a list. 

Mark took the list and looked at it, and then sweat popped out on his forehead. 

Except for the major shareholders like Mr. Miller, Ms. Linken, and Mr. Young, there were also a few small shareholders on the list, a total of seven people. 

“Well, Miss Haynes, are we really going to do so?” 

Joanna frowned and said coldly, “I said in the meeting this morning that anyone who didn’t submit his work report in the afternoon would not be allowed to come to work tomorrow. 

“They can’t enter the office until they hand in their work reports. 

“If I don’t get their reports within three days, I will see it as them giving up the company’s shares automatically. The company will buy the shares in their hands at the original price.” 

Hearing this, Mark felt a chill running down his spine. 

Miss Haynes was really ruthless. Even Mr. Everett would not dare to offend so many directors. 

When Joanna saw Mark hesitate, her brows furrowed even tighter. “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and go!” 

“Okay” Mark did not dare to retort and hurried out with the list. 

Joanna looked at her watch, only to find it was time to get off work. 

Anyway, she was not the real owner of the Everett Group. In a few days, she would return the company to Bruce. She must get everything she wanted done in this period. 

There was one more thing that upset her. She wanted to remove Ethan as general manager when she was still the acting president. 

Back then, Ethan collaborated with Bruce to trick her into mortgaging her company’s shares for a loan. If it weren’t for him. the Haynes Group wouldn’t have ended up like this. 

And now, Bruce appointed Ethan to be the general manager of the Haynes Group. She would not let it go easily. 

After Joanna arranged the work at hand, she picked up her bag and went home. 

She returned to Sherane Bay Villa at 5:30 PM.
