“That’s hard to say. If Mr. Everett is willing to help, our company will definitely be able to survive this!”

“Let’s hope so!”

At the office.

“Miss Haynes, Mr. Everett is here!”

Luna pushed open the office door. Her voice was filled with excitement.

Joanna also subconsciously stood up from her chair!

Then, Bruce walked in. As usual, he was wearing a nice suit and looked fabulous. He always looked so noble and

elegant.

“Bruce, you’re here… Joanna didn’t know what to say now and could not help but feel nervous.

Bruce sized up Joanna and felt a dull pain in his chest.

It had only been half a month since they last met, but she was so much thinner that she looked like she could be

blown away by the wind. Her delicate face was as pale as paper and her almond eyes also looked dull and lifeless.

“Why are you looking for me?” Bruce tried to keep his voice calm.

When Joanna heard this, her eyes darkened and she didn’t know how to tell Bruce that she wanted to borrow

money.

Actually, even if she didn’t say anything, Bruce had already figured it out.

It wouldn’t be a problem for him to help Joanna get through this crisis!

The problem was that he would not help her for no reason.

“L… Joanna stammered, not knowing how to say it directly..

Bruce took a few steps forward and said gently, “If you have something to say, just say it. There’s no need to be so

hesitant.”

Joanna heaved a sigh and braced herself. “Can I borrow some money from you?”

When Bruce heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly. “How much money do you want?”

Joanna bit her lower lip. Her heart was pounding and she was breaking out in a cold sweat.

“Say it!”

…600 million dollars!” After Joanna finished speaking, she lowered her head weakly as if she had no strength left.

Other than asking Bruce for help, she really had no other choice.

Bruce was stunned for a moment and then looked at Joanna with a complicated expression.

“How are you going to pay back so much money?”

Indeed, 600 million dollars was not a small sum.

Ordinary people would probably not be able to make so much money in a few lifetimes. Moreover, Bruce had

signed a betting agreement with Joanna.

To a certain extent, he was already her creditor.

Joanna took a deep breath. “I’ll definitely pay you back. For now, I have to get through this crisis.”

Bruce sneered. “Joarma, it’s not that I look down on you, but the truth is right in front of me.

“If you could ein 600 million dollars, you wouldn’t have to borrow money from me, let alone be in debt to the bank.

“Also, you have signed a betting agreement with me. Now that half of the time has passed, do you think you can

complete the betting agreement?”

When Joanna heard this, she became even more desperate, her eyes filled with frustration and helplessness.

If the company did not have so many accidents and could maintain normal operations, it was not impossible to

complete the betting agreement in three years.

Unfortunately, things didn’t go as planned!

Ever since she took office, the Haynes Group had been suppressed by her peers several times, and she had been

schemed against by bad people behind her back.

With the current situation, the betting agreement could not be completed at all.

“Even if I help you now, you won’t be able to complete the betting agreement. At that time, you’ll still have nothing!

“What’s the point of me helping you now?”

Joanna found it hard to breathe and felt terrible right now.

Although Bruce’s words were unpleasant, it was also the truth.

She had overestimated herself. It was not that easy to survive in the business world, especially when there were too

many despicable people plotting behind her back. It was impossible for her to do business properly.

“I really have no way out now. Please help me!” Joanna’s tone carried a hint of helplessness and sadness.

Bruce laughed. “It’s not that I can’t help you, but I’m a businessman. You have to give me a reason to help you.”

Joanna’s mind was all messed up, and she was on the verge of collapse. She really didn’t have much to say.

After a while.

Bruce took a few steps forward and stared into Joanna’s eyes. He said bluntly, “Joanna, I can help you!

“However, I have one condition.”

“What condition?” A glimmer of hope appeared in Joanna’s eyes.

“The condition is that we remarry.”

He knew Joanna too well. She would not come back to him if he did not take some special measures.

After hearing this, Joanna froze and looked at Bruce in surprise.

Jaydon was still lying in the intensive care unit. How could he take advantage of her like this? And how could she

turn her back on Jaydon and go back to Bruce?

“Bruce, stop fooling around. You know it’s impossible!”

Bruce’s eyes darkened. “I’m not messing with you. This is the only condition.

“If we remarry, you’ll be my wife. I should help you no matter what. Otherwise, I really wouldn’t be so generous.”

Joanna choked. “Other than this condition. I’ll agree to anything else!”

“That’s all I want. I don’t need anything else.”

“Bruce… Joanna’s dry lips trembled.

“If you don’t wanna help me, just forget it!”

She was really in despair!

In any case, the worst–case scenario was death!

If Jaydon couldn’t make it, she didn’t want to live anymore.

Her only regret was that she could not bring the Haynes Group to greater heights. Instead, she destroyed her

grandfather’s life’s work.
