Chapter 69
Chapter 69
Everyone was so frightened that their hearts trembled!
Joanna was already at a dead end. Instead of trying to rely on Mr. Everett, she was being so rude to
Mr. Everett!
“Joann, how can you talk to Mr. Everett like that?”
“You were the one who messed things up. What right do you have to be angry? Hurry up and apologize
to Mr. Everett!”
“Mr. Everett, don’t be angry! Miss Haynes is still young. I apologize to you on her behalf!”
When Joanna heard this, she was even more speechless.
It was Bruce who messed things up!
If Bruce hadn’t beaten David up, the collaboration between the Haynes Group and CI Technologies
wouldn’t fail.
But now, no one blamed Bruce. Instead, they all blamed Joanna!
Bruce looked around at everyone and ignored Joanna’s murderous gaze. He said, “Oh, I heard you
guys shouting outside just now. Some of you want to quit the Haynes Group?”
“Uh…” Mr. Roger and Mr. Paul looked at each other, and they looked kind of embarrassed.
“You want to sell your shares?
“That’s great. I happen to be considering it. Which one of you is willing to quit the Haynes Group? I’ll
buy back the shares in your hands at the market price!”
When Mr. Roger and Mr. Paul heard this, they were instantly dumbfounded!
In the Haynes Group, Mr. Roger and Mr. Paul had at least millions of profits a year! How could they
withdraw so easily?
Now, they knew that Joanna did not have the money to buy back their shares! They said it just to force
Joanna to resign.
However, Bruce was different. Bruce had enough money, and he could easily buy Mr. Roger and Mr.
Paul’s shares.
“Mr. Everett, we’re just discussing with Miss Haynes about this! We don’t really want to quit! It’s Miss
Haynes who doesn’t want us to stay in the Haynes Group.”
“Really? Then why did I hear that Miss Haynes is going to collaborate with the Stark Group from Nory?”
Hearing this, Mr. Roger’s eyes widened. “Ah! When did this happen?”
“It’s in these few days!” Bruce had a faint smile on his face!
The Stark Group from Nory was not inferior to CI Technologies! Moreover, the Stark Group had always
been working with the Everett Group!
Joanna was also stunned when she heard that!
What the hell was Bruce up to? Since when did Joanna collaborate with the Stark Group?
Then, Bruce took out a document from his briefcase and pretended to be stunned as he looked at
Joanna. “Didn’t you sign this contract, Miss Haynes?
“So. Miss Haynes, you haven’t told everyone about this good news?”
“I…” Joanna was completely dumbfounded. She looked at Bruce in disbelief.
Mr. Roger and Mr. Paul had already snatched the contract and read it.
That was true.
This was the collaboration contract between the Haynes Group and the Stark Group.
“The Stark Group has already stamped it. We’re just waiting for Miss Haynes to stamp it!
“As long as the Haynes Group’s official seal is stamped, this contract will take effect!” Bruce said
calmly. He looked at everyone playfully with his sharp eyes!
This is really wonderful news! Isn’t this surprising?”
“When did Miss Haynes strike a deal with the Stark Group?”
Joanna felt a chill run down her spine as she stared straight at Bruce.
Bruce smiled at Joanna with a playful look as if he enjoyed seeing Joanna surprised.
The day before, Bruce called the president of the Stark Group late at night. If the Stark Group wanted
to continue working with the Everett Group, they had to sign a collaboration contract with the Haynes
Group as well..
And the Stark Group had to provide all the goods to the Haynes Group first.
The Stark Group was unwilling to abandon such an important client as the Everett Group, so they
naturally agreed!
Then, Bruce quickly printed out the collaboration contract and sent a resident representative to have
the contract signed.
Bruce’s courage as a successful businessman immediately turned the situation around!
“With the Stark Group as a supplier, I think the Haynes Group’s business will prosper in the future! Why
quit now? Do you want to miss out on this opportunity?
“That’s great. If you don’t want this opportunity, Miss Haynes and I will share the fruit! If you want to quit
the Haynes Group, you can sign the repurchase agreement today!”
“Ah, no, no, no!” Mr. Paul and Mr. Roger’s expressions immediately changed!
The two of them did not expect such a huge turn of events!
Joanna was completely stunned!
She never thought that Bruce would help her at this critical moment!
“Ah, it’s just a misunderstanding!”
“It was really a misunderstanding just now. We were just anxious when we heard that the collaboration
between the Haynes Group and CI Technologies had failed!”
“That was how it started.”
“I’ve been in the Haynes Group for so many years. I’ve spent half of my life’s effort on the Haynes
Group. How can I quit?”
Bruce smiled and looked at Joanna. “That depends on Miss Haynes’ decision!”
Mr. Roger immediately took the initiative to apologize to Joanna. “Miss Haynes, don’t take what I just
said to heart!
“What I said just now was just out of anger. I take back what I said just now! No matter what, I won’t
quit the Haynes Group!”
Seeing this, Mr. Paul hurriedly followed. “Me too!
“No matter what, I won’t quit the Haynes Group!”
After all, everyone loved money! People could do all kinds of things for money.
Joanna was speechless for a moment. She just stared blankly at Bruce!
This da mn ba stard. Was this another trap Bruce had set up?
“Miss Haynes was just testing you. I didn’t expect you to have such little loyalty!
“It seems like it’s always easy to share happiness, but hard to undergo hardships together!”
After saying that, Bruce leaned lazily against the seat with a teasing expression.
When Mr. Roger and Mr. Paul heard that, they became embarrassed!
However, they knew that Bruce was supporting Joanna!
To be honest, with Bruce’s support, the Haynes Group would not collapse.
Losing CI Technologies was nothing. It would be a real nightmare if the Haynes Group lost the support
from Bruce!
When Shaun saw this, his entire face turned pale!
Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, Shaun’s future son-in-law not only did not help, but he also sided
with outsiders!
“Hmm!” Shaun was so angry that he felt stifled in his chest. His blood pressure was skyrocketing.
Shaun was so close to getting the Haynes Group back, but Bruce pulled Joanna out of the abyss of
despair! NôvelDrama.Org © content.
“Mr. Haynes, what’s wrong?”
“My heart is a little uncomfortable. I have to go first!”
With that, Shaun stood up and walked towards the door with a dark expression.
Bruce looked at Joanna with an ambiguous but smug expression. It seemed like Bruce wanted to earn
some credit.
When Mr. Roger and Mr. Paul saw this, they knew what Bruce was feeling about Joanna! At this time,
they better leave and not be the third wheel.
“Well, let’s call it a day! We’ll leave first!”
After saying that, the two of them looked at each other. They said goodbye to Bruce and Joanna and
left with a smile!
The other high-level executives also tactfully left the conference room!
Joanna tidied the hair on her forehead and prepared to get up and return to the office.
Bruce smiled suggestively and stretched out his arm to block Joanna’s way. “Are you going to leave
just like that?”
“Bruce, what the hell are you playing at?”
“Ha, what do you mean?
“Shouldn’t you be thanking me?”
