NovelEnglishIn the CEO's office.
When the directors and management of the company learned that Joanna had come to the company, they were all shocked.
They knew that she was here to inspect their work. All of them quickly put down their work and came to report.
"Miss Haynes, this is the company's financial report for this period.” "There's also the contract report signed in the past three months. Please take a look!" "Leave them all for now! I'll let you know after I've read them." “Alright!” The company's higher-ups reported their work respectfully one after another.

Joanna flipped through the contract report and replied without looking up, "I just went to the hospital to take a look. My husband is safe now. | hope everyone can focus on your work. Thank you for your concern.” When Mr. Bourn and Mr. Nelson heard this, they secretly broke out in cold sweat.
They thought, "Oh my! Mr. Everett was really lucky. He had been plotted against a few times but was still safe and sound." Fortunately, they had been patient for the past few days and waited obediently.
If they caused any trouble during this period of time, when Mr. Everett recovered, they probably could not get off that easy.
"Leave all these work reports here! Recently, if I'm free, I'll come to the company.” Joanna's face was solemn, making it impossible to tell her emotions.
"Oh, okay. Then we'll go out first!" "Okay." The shareholders left the CEO's office, their hearts beating like drums.
"I wonder if Miss Haynes is telling the truth? | saw on the news that Bruce was shot in the chest." "Come on, it's the chest. How can he be okay?" Mr. Nelson also lowered his voice and said shrewdly, "I think Miss Haynes is deliberately appearing to threaten everyone. She's afraid that the shareholders will cause trouble.” "Whether it's true or not, now that Miss Haynes has appeared, it's better for us to be careful.” "That's true!" In the office, Bruce sat lazily on the leather swivel chair he had been occupying earlier, his legs habitually resting on the desk.
Next to him was a large floor-to-ceiling window through which one could overlook more than half of Greyport. In the past, when he was bored, he liked to sit there, light a cigarette, and look out through the window.
Seeing this, Joanna looked at him speechlessly. "Hiss... Can you not put your legs on the desk?" When Bruce heard this, he snorted and smiled. "I'm just letting you admire my perfect legs!" "Look at how long and straight my legs are!" As he spoke, Bruce habitually went to the table to get a cigarette.
Suddenly, he remembered that he had already given up smoking.
Joanna was speechless.

Let's go home! | told you that the company is fine, but you insisted on making a trip." "I have to show up and reassure everyone. Then there won't be that much gossip." "Humph. Now that you've appeared, there must be even more people talking about it." "Alas!" Joanna frowned and sighed.
"What's wrong now? Why do you always sigh?" asked Bruce.
"| feel stuffy in my heart as if something is going to happen.” Bruce smiled dotingly when he heard this. "Don't worry! With me around, there won't be any problems. It's almost six o'clock! We'd better go home before the children get anxious.” "Uh-uh." The two of them got up and were about to leave.
Beep, beep, beep.
Bruce's phone rang again. He picked it up and saw that it was a call from the hospital.
