The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 552

It was obvious that Mr. Nelson did it on purpose.

Chapter 552

If Bruce was in the meeting, Mr. Nelson would probably not dare to leave even if he couldn’t hold it in and shit in his

pants.

“Then let’s continue with the meeting. I haven’t been in the office for a couple of days.

“Everyone, report me on your work for the past few days. I have something else to tell you guys later.”

As soon as Joanna finished speaking, a female director in her fifties looked at her with a fake smile, saying, “It’s the

beginning

of the new year and we have just resumed work. We don’t have much to report.

“Anyway, I don’t have anything to report. Miss Haynes, you may ask the others and see if they have anything to

say.”

“That’s right. It’s only been less than 10 days since we resumed work. We don’t have anything to report,” another

director also said indifferently.

Joanna was Bruce’s beloved woman and they could not afford to offend her before.

But now, everyone knew that she cuckolded Bruce.

She was nothing without Bruce’s support and no one would take her seriously.

The look in Joanna’s eyes turned stern. “It’s been 10 days since we started work after the new year holiday. You

guys should at least summarize what you’ve done during this time, right?”

“Miss Haynes, you must be kidding. You haven’t been to the office for five days, but you’re asking us to do a work

summary. “If you want us to report on our work, you should take the lead to report on yours, right? After all, you’re

now the head of the corporation, the female director said sarcastically.

She joined Everett Group when Bruce’s grandfather was in charge of the company and had been working here for

almost 30

years.

Even Bruce had to show some respect to her.

She had a bad impression of Joanna.

“Miss Haynes, how about you tell us what you have been doing for the past few days?”

“Yes, yes! We want to know as well!”

“Miss Haynes. I’m afraid you haven’t seen the news yet. Everett Group has become everyone’s laughing stock. Why

are you still acting as if nothing happened? This is strange!”

“How you are going to explain to Mr. Everett when he comes out?” several small shareholders echoed.

Joanna glanced at them coldly, her face turning gloomy.

These old foxes‘ attitudes changed so quickly!

Bruce hadn’t done anything to her yet, but these people had already started to make things hard for her,

“Bang!” Joanna slammed the table angrily.

“We are having a meeting. How can you guys gossip about such a thing?

“Besides, this is between Mr. Everett and me. I know what to do. You guys don’t have to worry about it.

“Since you guys haven’t summarized the work of the past 10 days, you can’t get the dividends for the first quarter,”

Joanna said with a grim look These people thought she was a pushover and tried to bully her, so there was no need

for her to show mercy again.

Every year in March, the company would distribute dividends for the previous quarter to shareholders.

It was already mid–February, and the payout date was less than a month away.

As the acting president, Joanna naturally had the right to decide whether to give them dividends or not.

Everyone panicked when they heard that. “What?”

“Why are you deducting our dividends?”

“That’s right. Even Mr. Everett wouldn’t dare to deduct our dividends at will. This is everyone’s dividend. You don’t

have the right to deduct it.”

“I don’t have the right?” Joanna sneered.

“Tim Everett Group’s president now. I have the final say in everything about the company‘

The major shareholders retorted in anger, “Hum! You’re thinking too highly of yourself! Even Mr. Everett won’t be

as

domineering as you!”

Joanna sneered. “Really? Then get him here to support you.”

Everyone was pissed off, but they didn’t know what to say.

They thought angrily. “This woman did such a disgraceful thing, but she’s still so arrogant in front of us. This is too

much!” “Give me your work reports before you guys get off work this afternoon. Anyone who doesn’t submit it

doesn’t have to come to work tomorrow.”

“Miss Haynes, don’t you think you are being too overbearing? Imph! I’m not going to do it. What can you do to

me?” “You’ll regret it if you don’t write it! Let’s see what will come next!” Joanna said as she stood up and walked

out with a gloomy face.

“Hum! She’s just acting president. How dare she treat us like this?

“I’ve been working at Everett Group for more than 30 years. I don’t believe she dares to kick me out of the

company!

“Does any of you guys want to do it? Anyway, I won’t,” Ms. Linken pushed up his gold–framed glasses and said

resentfully. As a veteran of the company, he didn’t take Joanna seriously at all.

“I won’t write the report either. I don’t believe she has the guts to kick all of us out. If she does so, let’s see how she

is going to explain it to Mr. Everett when he comes out.”

“That’s right. She has gone too far, even more aggressive than Mr. Everett.”

“Well, I’m going back to my office.”

“I want to go back to my office as well. The small shareholders did not dare to argue with Joanna. They quickly went

back to their offices to prepare their work reports.

It would be unwise to fight against Joanna. As the final decision–maker of the company, she might really kick them

all out if she was annoyed.

Even if Bruce was acquitted, it would probably take two to three months for him to be released. During this period,

Joanna might kick them all out without his permission. It was not worth it to take the risk..

The major shareholders showed no intention to give in.

They did not believe that Joanna would really dare to punish them.
