Chapter 628
Although he had been in a coma for nearly a month, he was well taken care of. Therefore, the complexion was not
bad.
“Touch my belly. The child is kicking me!”
As Joanna spoke, she gently placed his hand on her stomach and let him feel the child.
Actually, she was only three months pregnant now, so there was no fetal movement. She just wanted to say more
words to agitate him so that he could wake up quickly.
“Did you feel it? Is the child moving? The child even told you that you should wake up quickly! We all need you!”
Bruce was still lying quietly without any reaction.
A few days ago, he could still open his eyes from time to time and needed to keep giving him eye drops to moisten
them.
Joanna rambled on for more than ten minutes.
Then she found it was almost time to go out.
“Be good. I’ll go out first!” After saying that, Joanna gently covered him with a blanket and left the ward.
As soon as she walked out of the ward, Darcy walked over. “Mrs. Joanna, Gael just called you.”
“Oh, got it.”
Joanna immediately picked up the phone and called Gael back.
Gael quickly picked up the phone. “Hello, Mrs! Joanna.”
“Hello, Gael, why did you call just now?”
“Mrs. Joanna, Lilia’s enrollment is fully implemented. Irvin and Davian’s admission qualifications have been
completed. When the summer vacation is over, they can enroll.
“Got it!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGael continued, “The Everett mansion’s courtyard and basement need maintenance!”
“Alright, I’ll leave it to you.”
“Well, next month is Mrs. Margaret’s death day. Since Mr. Everett has become like this, I am afraid that he can’t go
to worship. Are you going to worship instead of him?”
Indeed, she should pay her respects in place of Bruce, but she was pregnant now. It was not suitable for her to do
such a thing. Besides, she had to take care of Bruce and could not leave for too long.
“Gael, I can’t. I can’t leave the hospital for long. Please go and pay your respects!”
Gael hesitated for a few seconds before agreeing. “Alright!”
“Is there anything else?”
“Uh…” Gael hesitated.
“Gael, what’s wrong? If you have something to say, just say it.”
“Mrs. Joanna, I heard that Mr. Lurk is selling the Belle Building under the Everett Group.
“Although this building is under his name, the actual property rights belong to the Everett Group. Mr. Lurk is
obviously trying to pocket money.”
“What? Sell the Belle Building?” Joanna was shocked.
Gael said solemnly, “In the past month, Mr. Lurk has been trying to cash out as interim president.
“If this continues, the Everett Group will probably be hollowed out. And the other shareholders are also doing the
same. They’re all thinking of ways to cash out.”
Joanna frowned, and her eyes darkened.
Bruce was now in trouble, and his life was in danger.
The shareholders of the Everett Group took the opportunity to make their own profits.
In particular, a few cunning shareholders were probably in cahoots with each other to gain benefits.
“I understand.”
Alright then! That’s all. Mrs. Joanna, you should think about coping measures and not always be immersed in grief.”
“Alright.”
After hanging up, Joanna was even more worried. Her brows furrowed, and her face was covered with a dark cloud.
Back then, when she was managing the Haynes Group, she only had Mr. Roger and Mr. Paul under her. However,
she was still in a bit of a tricky situation.
Now, the Everett Group had almost 20 shareholders. Being of the same generation as Bruce’s grandpa, some of
them always took advantage of their seniority.
Other than Bruce, no one else could suppress them.
Bruce had a fiery temper and was domineering. Moreover, his methods were ruthless, bold, and he had a strong
desire for revenge. Whoever dared to go against him would be courting death.
He subdued these old fellows with force.
In the past, Bruce’s parents died early. Without any siblings, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and inherit the
family business. When he first took over as the president of the Everett Group, he was not even 20 years old.
These old shareholders were naturally unconvinced and did not take him seriously at all.
If Bruce had taken a step back, there would not be the leading company today. The Everett Group would have been
divided up long ago.
Unexpectedly, with his investment vision, he doubled the profits of the Everett Group a year. Whoever dared to
disobey would immediately be kicked out. He definitely wouldn’t show any mercy.
After more than ten years, Bruce got these old fellows wrapped around his finger. Now that Bruce was in trouble, all
of them lost control.
Joanna sighed deeply and muttered to herself, “I don’t know when Bruce will wake up. Even if he wakes up, I’m
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmafraid he` won’t be able to get back to work immediately.
“When his body completely recovers, the Everett Group will probably be hollowed out.”
Joanna was not greedy.
However, the Everett Group was Bruce’s asset, and it would be her children’s asset in the future. She could not let
others takey away what belonged to her children.
Joanna thought about it and still went to the doctor’s office.
She wanted to confirm Bruce’s recovery.
“Jordan, how is Bruce now?”
When Jordan heard this, his expression was not as grave as before. “Oh, Mr. Everett is currently out of danger.
“After another week of observation, if there are no complications or other factors, he can be transferred to a
normal ward.
“This is already very rare. It’s a medical miracle. Miss Haynes, don’t be too anxious. Based on Mr. Everett’s
recovery, he might really wake up.”
“Oh, that’s great. How long will it take for him to wake up?”
Jordan frowned. “Uh, I’m not sure for now. But Mr. Everett is basically out of danger.
“As for whether or not he can wake up, and when he can wake up, it’s still unknown. I can’t guarantee it for you.
“However, according to Mr. Everett’s current recovery, it’s very likely that he will wake up in half a year. It might
also be three to five years.
“There are similar cases overseas. One racer was in a coma for six years. Originally, the doctor advised his family
to agree to euthanize the patient, but his wife was unwilling to give up treatment.
“She insisted on treating her husband. After being in a coma for six years, he finally recovered.”
As Jordan spoke, he subconsciously adjusted his glasses and said earnestly, “Mr. Everett’s current situation is very
similar to that racer’s.”
When Joanna heard this, her heart sank again.
