Chapter 672 Mr. Young also hurriedly intervened, saying, “Yes, yes! Even though Mr. Everett's mind is unclear, he is still the company’s president. Now, let's all sit down calmly and devise a better solution. We can also ask for Mr. Everett's opinion...” “Mr. Everett's mind is not clear now. What's the point of asking for his opinion? Mr. Lurk should be the one to take on the role of president,” Mr. Nelson added impatiently.
Bruce's eyes narrowed, and he looked at Mr. Nelson intensely. “Who's the one with the unclear mind? Who are you talking about?” he questioned.
Mr. Nelson was startled by Bruce's tone and expression. He did not seem like someone with an abnormal mind. “I, I...” Mr.
Nelson stammered.
“Mr. Everett, please calm down. Let's all sit down and talk together!” Mr. Young said.
Liam sneered. “I have nothing to talk about with her. She must leave the company now.” Joanna retorted in a similarly cold manner, “Do you think I'll just leave if you ask me to? You're the one who should leave.” “Since we have so many directors here, let's be clear. Everyone knows our true intentions. | am Bruce’s uncle, so naturally, | have plans for him! Why should an outsider be involved in our family affairs? Don’t forget, you and Bruce divorced a long time ago,” Liam said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJoanna took a deep breath and responded, “Yes, that’s right. Bruce and | haven't gone through the remarriage procedures yet.
But, the whole of Greyport knows about our relationship. We have three children together, and the fourth is about to be born. Do you think there's no relationship between us? Also, | am taking care of him as the mother of his children!” Her words choked Liam, and he hurriedly replied, “You don’t need to argue forcefully. Without remarriage, you are not legally considered a couple. Even if you were a couple, you wouldn't have the qualifications to manage Everett Group.” Mr. Young quickly intervened, “Everyone, let's stop arguing. Let's sit down calmly and discuss.” Liam also realized that he couldn't gain the upper hand today and proposed, “Joanna Haynes, let's both compromise for now.
Both sides are not allowed to enter the Everett Group during the formal prosecution. After the court's final judgment, let's see what you have to say.” Joanna pondered for a few seconds.
She was six months pregnant, and there were still three months until childbirth. The final judgment might take about three months.
“Alright, that's settled,” she agreed.
“Darcy, have someone watch over the president's office,” Joanna instructed.
“Yes, Miss Haynes!” “Joanna Haynes, now, as Bruce's uncle, | demand to take Bruce to the hospital for evaluation!” Liam requested.
“I'm afraid that's not possible. Bruce won't go to the hospital with you,” Joanna replied.
Hearing her reply, Liam was even more infuriated.
With his remaining consciousness, Bruce replied instinctively, “Why should | go to the hospital with you? “Bruce, you are being bewitched by this woman...” Liam lamented.
Joanna looked at Liam with a stern expression and she reminded, “Even though Bruce’s mind is slightly damaged, it doesn’t mean he lacks personal décision-making abilities. What you are doing now is clearly taking advantage of the situation.
B" When he regains his clarity, let's see how he views you, his uncle. Let's go back. For now, Mr. Xander will temporarily take over the company” The two sides parted ways without any pleasantries.
On the way/back, Joanna and the others discussed what had happened.
“This Liam is really outrageous. | didn’t expect him to be so obvious about his intentions.” “Yes, it's disgusting. I've never seen an uncle trying to fight for his nephew's assets like this. Miss Haynes, what should we do now?” Joanna furrowed her brows and sighed. “Now that things have escalated to this point, we can only take one step at a time.” Looking at Joanna's serious expression, Bruce embraced her shoulder and apologized, saying, “Darling, it’s all my fault. I didn’t protect you just now...” “No, you've already done well. No matter how hard it gets, we will get through it together!” Joanna comforted him gently. Bruce nodded with his remaining consciousness, and drool uncontrollably flowed from the corner of his mouth, “Yeah, no matter what happens, I'll be by my wife’s side.” Joanna quickly submitted all the applications to the court the next day, requesting a change in the children’s custody.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcusto Soon, the court accepted the case.
Mr. Jameson was the most powerful lawyer in Greyport, and having him take on the case made it a piece of cake.
After the judgment came out, it was not unexpected that the court granted Joanna custody of the children.
Joanna finally breathed a sigh of relief on the day the judgment was issued. No matter what, she had to protect the custody of the children.
Meanwhile, Liam was infuriated when he learned that Joanna had changed the children’s custody.
“This Joanna Haynes is truly hateful. | didn’t expect her to act so quickly and secure the children’s custody,” he cursed.
Upon hearing this, Lola quickly comforted and incited him, saying, “Honey, you have to try harder. Otherwise, maybe she'll take away Mr. Everett's custody as well. We've already put so much effort into this. We can’t give up so easily.” Liam's wavering mind was firmly decided after Lola’s instigation.
He could not give up even if there were only a slight chance.
