Chapter 703
“I need to think it over.”
The three kids were still discussing cheerfully. “Her nickname is Dara. That’s settled. Let’s give her a formal name.”
Looking at their smiling faces, Joanna could not help but smile gently.
At this moment, she felt very satisfied.
If it weren’t for the company’s troubles, she would be able to live happily with her family, then she would have
nothing to ask for.
Now that Bruce had just been discharged from the hospital, he couldn’t stand too much noise and had headaches
again.
“Hiss!” He frowned and reflexively held his head.
Seeing that, Joanna hurriedly asked with concern, “What’s wrong? Do you have a headache?”
“Well, kind of.”
Joanna grew tense instantly and the smile on her face disappeared. “Come on, go back to our room to have a rest.
I’ll get the family doctor here right now.”
“No need. I’m going back to our room. I’ll be fine after a nap.”
“Okay, okay. Sweethearts, be quiet. Dad has just been discharged from the hospital. Don’t make him too tired.”
“Oh, got it.” The kids stopped shouting immediately and did not dare to make a sound anymore.
“I’ll accompany you to our room.”

with them.” “Alright then.”
Bruce got up and walked to the room upstairs, without saying anything else.
“Mom, is Dad alright?”
“Dad has just been discharged from the hospital. He is still very weak.”
“Come on, let’s go back to our room. Don’t disturb Dad’s rest.”
“Then let’s go to our room,” Davian and Irvin said in unison.
“Okay.”
Joanna stood up and went to Davian and Irvin’s room with the kids.
It had been a long time since she last checked the children’s homework. Besides, she got them into many extra-
curricular activities. She wondered if their academic performance regressed.
Since she was free today, she wanted to check what the children had learned recently.
Bruce returned to his room and lay down for a while, but he could not fall asleep.
He then sent a message to Darcy and asked him to wait for him in the study.
Five minutes later, Darcy walked into the study with a respectful expression. At this moment, Bruce was sitting
behind the desk with a gloomy face.
“Mr. Everett, what can I do for you?”
“I asked you to investigate Liam. Did you find anything?”
Darcy frowned. “Mr. Everett, the investigation is almost over.
“During this period of time, Liam embezzled hundreds of millions of dollars from the company and even planned to
sell Belle Building,
“A few of the company’s shareholders are on his side. Some time ago, Miss Haynes managed the company for a
while, and it gradually got back on track.
“But after what happened to you, Miss Haynes never went to the company, so Liam took over everything.”
When Bruce heard this, his face was terrifyingly gloomy.
“Now, the company is a mess again. The shareholders are all trying to cash out.”
“Tell Mr. Jameson that we must lose this lawsuit and let Liam get my custody!”
“Okay, Mr. Everett.”
“Also, spread the rumors that there will be an equity carve-out for Everett Group, and its subsidiary Hartfield
Enterprise might be delisting.”
“Huh? But this will cause the company’s share price to plummet.”
Bruce sneered. “That’s what I want to happen to Hartfield Enterprise.”
Darcy looked puzzled when he heard this.
However, he did not dare to ask further and only nodded respectfully. “I’ll do it now.”
Hartfield Enterprise was the most important listed company under Everett Group, and most of Everett Group’s
shareholders had shares in the company.

Bruce wanted to let Liam become the most powerful man in the company before making the company’s shares
plummet.
Then people would believe that Hartfield Enterprise was about to be delisted.
At that time, the shareholders and investors would definitely sell their shares.
Bruce would buy all the shares at the lowest price. In that case, he would be able to kick out the other shareholders
and completely control Hartfield Enterprise.
While the two of them were chatting, the door was pushed open.
Joanna walked into the study. She had just returned to their room to check on Bruce. Seeing that he was not in the
room, she guessed that he might be in the study.
Sure enough, he was in the study.
Seeing Darcy, Joanna was even more confused. “Darcy, why are you here?”
Darcy rarely came to the study.
“Well, I’m here to…” Darcy looked anxious, not knowing how to explain it.
“Honey, why are you back? I asked Darcy to find something for me.” Bruce giggled and walked up to Joanna.
Joanna was stunned.
Over the past few days, Darcy and Bruce seemed to have gotten much closer.
She had bumped into them a few times when they were talking alone. She didn’t know what they were talking
about, but they looked mysterious.
Such a thing had never happened before.
Darcy quickly walked out. “I’m going. Tell me if there’s anything you want me to do.”
“Okay. Go ahead.”
“Hey, what were you looking for just now? Did you find it? Tell me and I’ll help him find it.”
“I’ve found it!”
