Chapter 357
After a few minutes of contemplation, Bruce spoke solemnly, “We can’t stay in Greene Town any longer Let’s go
back to Greyport as soon as possible.”
“Joanna, come back with me. I’m worried about you staying here alone.”
“Alright.” Joanna hesitated for a few seconds but ultimately agreed.
“Andy, take care of the discharge procedures and arrange for a motorhome to transfer us to the hospital in
Greyport.”
“Yes, Mr. Everett, Andy replied and immediately went out to handle the matter.
Bruce had already recovered significantly after staying in the hospital for three days. However, he still felt slightly
weak and was advised not to engage in stremtous activities.
Soon enough, the discharge procedures were completed, and Antly arranged the vehicle to transport them.
Accompanied by a specialized medical caregiver to ensure that any issues would be taken care of during the
journey, Bruce entered the car.
Joanna also got into the car and returned to Greyport together with Bruce. She had already spent around ten days
in Greene Town. If she didn’t return soon, she had no idea what might be happening there..
The car smoothly drove towards Greyport. A security vehicle followed closely behind.
In Greyport.
Two hours later, the group arrived in Greyport.
“Mr. Everett, shall I send you to Greyport Hospital first?”
Bruce furrowed his brow. “It’s fine. Let’s go straight to Sherane Bay Villa.”
He felt he had recovered sufficiently and didn’t need to be hospitalized. Moreover, he had a family doctor and
caregivers at home. It was much more convenient than being in the hospital.
“Understood, Mr. Everett.”
“Um, please stop the car at the next intersection. I want to get off.”
“Joanna, it would be safer for you to stay at my place at times like this.”
“No! I’d rather go back home.”
“How are you going to take care of me?”
“This isn’t Greene Town. You’re almost fully recovered now, and you have so many servants to take care of you. You
don’t need me to look after you.”
Bruce still refused to let her go. “Joanna, I’m worried about you!”
“If you stay there, who will protect you if Ryan finds trouble with you?”
“I can handle it. You don’t have to worry. Besides, I have Tatiana by my side.”
“No, it’s still too dangerous. Ryan is completely unhinged now. Until he is apprehended, you should stay where I
have arranged for you.”

the old mansion or Reagan No. 8 Residence. Or…”
Joanna furrowed her brow and shook her head. She still rejected Bruce’s suggestion.
It would be even more dangerous to live with him. If he were to confine her again, it would be disastrous.
“No, really! I have already asked Miranda to find a new place, and I can move today.”
Bruce Everett sighed helplessly. “Joanna, why are you so stubborn? I don’t want you to leave my sight. You must
listen to my
arrangements.”
“Bruce Everett, can’t you stop being so domineering? Why do you always force others to comply with your wishes?
Joanna Haynes was highly displeased with this aspect of him.
Seeing Joanna was about to get angry again, Bruce could only suppress his temper. “Alright, fine. Do as you wish! If
anything happens, don’t regret it.”
“Don’t worry! I won’t regret it.”
“Kody, just stop at that intersection.”
“Okay,” The driver answered and slowed down before turning into the specified intersection and coming to a stop.
Chapter 357
“Miss Haynes, we’re here.”
Bruce looked at Joanna in disbelief. “You don’t have to get off now. Let me take you directly home.”
“Kody, go straight to Greenwick Residential Complex.”
“Alright.”
Twenty minutes later.
Kody parked the car at the entrance of Greenwick Residential Complex.
“Where are you moving to? I’ll get my assistant to help you move.”
“It’s fine. I can handle it myself. Don’t worry!”
“Rest well and stop exerting yourself.”“
Bruce fell silent momentarily and sighed again. It wouldn’t be appropriate to force her.
Joanna always accused him of being too overbearing and lacking respect for others. She also disliked his controlling
nature, which was why she refused to return to his side.
He wanted to try changing his temper and not push her too much.
“Bye. Call me if you need anything.”
Then, Joanna got out of the car and went home with Tatiana.
Soon, she arrived home.
Miranda and Kelly had almost finished packing everything. The floor was filled with several large cardboard boxes
and about six suitcases.
Since this was a rented house, they didn’t have to move any large furniture apart from daily necessities and
clothing.
Miranda, who was busy packing, stopped her work when she saw Joanna return.
Joanna casually responded, “Yes. Is everything packed?”
“Everything is here. It’s already packed!”
“Have you found a new house?”
“Yes, it’s in Ona Place. The rent is slightly higher than this house, but it’s safer and has better security measures.”
“Okay, that’s good.”
“Everything else is packed. Only your personal belongings are left. Do you want to pack them yourself, or should I
do it for you?”
“I’ll pack them myself! You can focus on packing the rest.”
Joanna did not like others touching her personal belongings.
Therefore, whenever Miranda entered her room daily to clean and organize her clothes, she dared not simply touch
her personal items.
“Alright!”
Afterward, Joanna directed Miranda, Kelly, and Tracy to start moving.
Ona Place was a high–end residential area. It was about 30 kilometers away from their current location and on the
other side. of Greyport.
Although it was not in the city center, the environment was excellent, and many celebrities and wealthy individuals
resided there.
It was past eight in the evening.
All the luggage was moved into their new home.
Joanna had never seen the house before. It was her first time here.
“Joann, this is it! What do you think?”
Joanna put down her bag and looked around.
It was a duplex with two floors. Although the overall area was not as large as the flat they had before, having two
separate levels provided more privacy.
There were two rooms upstairs and two rooms downstairs. The furniture and decoration were relatively new,
making the place look cozy.
Chapter 357
In addition, each person was assigned a key card. The security at the gate was strict. They did not allow outsiders
or vehicles to enter. Even delivery drivers couldn’t enter the community. The privacy and security measures were
well implemented.
“Hmm, not bad!”
“It has been cleaned. So we can move in right away.”
Joanna went upstairs to the master bedroom. The interior design was beige, and there was a large balcony. When
she opened the curtains, she could see the sea outside.
Kelly and Tracy would share one room, while Miranda and Tatiana each had their own rooms. Overall, it was a

After all, her children were not with her at the moment. In fact, having Miranda by her side to take care of things
was enough.
However, Joanna still hoped her children would eventually come back to her. She didn’t want to dismiss Tracy and
Kelly, who had been caring for her children. She valued their presence.
Miranda and the others were busy organizing their luggage downstairs.
Joanna took a short break and habitually turned on her computer to check the company documents.
Beep, beep!
Joanna called Ethan, the Vice President of the Haynes Group.
“Hello, Miss Haynes!”
“Ethan, inform everyone that I will be returning to the company tomorrow. Schedule a meeting with all the
directors and senior executives at 9 o’clock.”
“Got it, Miss Haynes!”
Joanna frowned. “Has anything happened in the company these past few days?”
Ethan pondered briefly and replied with a hint of seriousness, “Overall, there haven’t been any major issues, but…”
Joanna’s heart tightened. “But what?”
“Mr. Hughes is preparing to resign from the board of directors and sell his shares.
Hearing that, Joanna remained silent for nearly half a minute. “What about Mr. Paul?”
“There haven’t been any movements from Mr. Paul’s side for now, but I think he’s on the same page with Mr.
Roger.”
“If Mr. Roger quits the board, he will definitely follow suit! Miss Haynes, you need to be mentally prepared.”
“Alright, I understand.”
“Okay, I’ll hang up now.”
After ending the call, Joanna took a deep breath and felt a heavy weight on her heart.
She currently held only 41% of the shares, and if other shareholders united against her, she would really lose all her
voice and final decision–making power.
However, she wouldn’t be able to sustain herself without selling 10% of her shares.
She could only take it step by step and see what they had in mind.
Joanna was having a leadache when Miranda came up with a tray. “Joann, you must be hungry. I brought you some
food!” “Thank you, but I’m not hungry. You can leave it for now.”
Tears welled up in Miranda’s eyes as she felt worried. “Joann, at least eat a little. You’ve been losing weight, and you
need to take care of your health. Everything else is a minor issue.”
“I understand, Miranda! You can leave first. I have some work to do.”
“Okay, I’ll go down first. Remember to eat. Don’t forget!”
“Got it!” Joanna replied and went back to work.
Seeing this, Miranda shook her head with concern before leaving the room helplessly.
