The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 802

“Joann, I will make sure to return the money to you as soon as possible…” Jaydon was still very

embarrassed.

After all, he had never borrowed money from anyone before, especially not from the woman he loved the most..

It made him feel uneasy and upset.

“Don’t worry, I don’t need the money urgently.

“I should get going now. If you need any help, just give me a call.” Joanna said as she stood up and prepared to

leave.

She knew that Jaydon was a person who valued a lot about his pride and self-esteem.

If she continued to stay here, it would only add to his psychological burden. It was best not to make others feel

embarrassed when helping others..

Some people, even if they did somebody else a small favor, would keep mentioning it over and over again, fearing

that others might forget.

However, Joanna only wanted to quietly help Jaydon without causing him any psychological burden.

“Alright, let me see you off.” Jaydon looked at Joanna with a touch of sadness.

“No need, I have my driver.”

Upon hearing this, Jaydon smiled dazedly. Her current net worth now was much higher than his, so naturally, she

would not

travel alone.

“Alright then! Goodbye.”

“Goodbye.”

Joanna smiled gently at Jaydon, carried her bag, and walked out.

The children also loved the snacks here.

So, before leaving, Joanna packed some custard rolls, biscuits, and other treats for them.

Although the chefs at the Everett mansion could make snacks, they could not match the taste of a restaurant.

After leaving the restaurant, it was already past ten in the morning.

Joanna checked the time, it was only 10:30 in the morning.

Due to the time difference, it was still around 3 o’clock in the morning in Antlen.

She would have to wait until the afternoon to call Aria Bridges.

“Miss Haynes, are we going home now?” Tatiana asked respectfully as she opened the car door.

Joanna pondered for a few seconds. “Hmm, let’s go to the company first.

“It’s been a long time since the last time I visited the company, and it can’t be left unattended for too long.”

“Sure.”

Bruce had not been going to the company during his recovery period, and now, he was abroad for treatment and

would not be back anytime soon.

Joanna felt it was necessary for her to go to the company and oversee things.

Twenty minutes later, the driver parked the car in the Everett Group’s parking lot.

“Miss Haynes, we have arrived at the company. You can get off now.”

“Okay, you can take the snacks home for now and come back to pick me up later.”

“Sure.”

Without saying much more, Joanna elegantly stepped out of the car.

With Tatiana and Cherron, she headed towards the company’s lobby.

“Hello, Miss Haynes!”

“Good day, everyone.” Joanna nodded slightly in acknowledgment to the front desk staff, and then she took the

elevator.

On the office floor.

Andy received a report from the front desk and learned that Joanna had arrived at the company.

He hurriedly went to the elevator to welcome her.

Ding! The elevator arrived at the designated floor.

As soon as Joanna stepped out, Andy respectfully greeted her. “Hello, Miss Haynes.”

“Mm, how’s the company doing recently?”

“Everything’s fine.”

The two walked towards the office as they spoke.

“Miss Haynes, when will Mr. Everett be back? Some contracts and documents need his signature, and we can’t

delay any further.” Andy looked at Joanna with a serious expression.

Joanna frowned, feeling a mess in her mind.

Indeed, work would not wait for anyone.

Bruce would not be back in Greyport in the near future, so she had to handle these matters on his behalf.

“Bring those contracts and documents over.”

Andy was confused for a moment and looked at Joanna with hesitation.

She took a deep breath and explained. “During this period, Mr. Everett won’t be coming to the company. I’ll take

over his work for the time being.”

Andy became even more anxious. “Huh? Isn’t Mr. Everett on a business trip? Hasn’t he come back yet?

“He initially planned to be gone for three days, but today is the fifth day, and he has not returned and his phone is

unreachable.

“The pre-arranged cooperations are waiting to meet Mr. Everett.”

“He’s dealing with some health issues and needs to rest at home.

“Notify all the shareholders that I will temporarily be in charge of his work from today.”/

Seeing Joanna’s serious expression, Andy knew she was not joking and quickly acknowledged. “Understood. I will

send out a notification in the workgroup chat right away.”

Shortly after, Andy sent a message in the workgroup chat, announcing Joanna’s temporary takeover of Bruce’s

work.

In less than five minutes, the executives and shareholders in the workgroup chat were shocked by the news.

“What? Is this for real? Miss Haynes is taking over Mr. Everett’s work again? What’s going on this time?”

Another shareholder could not help but tease. “Is Mr. Everett thinking of retiring? Why is he not coming to the

company so often now?”

“I guess so..

Look, he has already transferred so many assets to Miss Haynes’s name.

“Now, who knows what he’s up to? He has not come to the company for so many days.”

“Eh, I heard from a gossip that Mr. Everett seems to be sick again.”

Several shareholde

were

surprised. “Who told that?”

you

“I heard it from someone else. It seems quite serious. He has been resting at home for so many days, and he still

has not recovered.”

“What? Is it true?”

Ding!

Another message popped up in the workgroup chat, tagging every member in it.

“Quick, check the message. Miss Haynes is going to hold a staff meeting tomorrow.

“Maybe she’s going to announce this matter.”

“Whatever. Whether it’s Mr. Everett or Miss Haynes managing the company, we can’t avoid our work. Miss Haynes’s

temper is better, so we might get yelled at less.”

“Well, that’s true…”

In the office, Andy and Mark walked in with a large stack of files.

“Miss Haynes. These are some recent documents and contracts that need attention.

“There are also some urgent contracts that can’t be delayed any longer.”

Joanna glanced at the files and furrowed her brows. “Alright, leave them here. I’ll deal with them later.”

“Sure

“Miss Haynes, do you want some coffee or lemon water?”

Joanna furrowed her brows. She used to enjoy strong coffee during her work days.

However, her body had gradually adjusted over time to give up the habit of relying on strong coffee for energy.

“Bring me a glass of lemon water, please.”

“Sure.”

Andy responded and turned to leave the office.

Mark asked in a mysterious tone, “Andy, what’s going on?

“Why did Miss Haynes suddenly come to the company? Did something happen to Mr. Everett again?”

Andy sighed. “I don’t know either! Miss Haynes just mentioned that Mr. Everett is experiencing some minor health

issues and needs to rest at home.”

Mark was shocked. “What? Is Mr. Everett still not fully recovered from his earlier health issues?

“I saw him improving not long ago, but I wonder what happened now.”

“I don’t know!” Andy sighed heavily once more.

As Bruce’s personal assistant, he was well aware of Bruce’s schedule.

Although he did not know the specifics of what happened to Bruce, he was certain that Bruce was not in Greyport

recently.
