Chapter 4

“Oh my God, I don’t believe it! After being kicked out of the Everett family, Joanna hooked up with Mr. Grimm. And they’ve had two kids already”

“Mr. Grimm, are these children yours? What is your relationship with Joanna Haynes?”

“When did you two get together?”

“Mr. Grimm, is it true that Ms. Haynes is about to take over the Haynes Group as the new executive director?”

The reports crowded with the popping flashbulbs and the swimming mics.

Hundreds of securities quickly formed a human wall.

Jaydon, who had never been a big fan of interviews, nodded slightly at the crowd of reporters: He was going to answer their questions today.

“Ms. Haynes and I are very good friends. Thank you for your concern,”

This one sentence was enough for the reporters‘ imagination.

Joanna and the two boys entered the cemetery under the protection of Jaydon and security.

Today was the funeral of Joanna’s grandfather, and she felt it necessary for her children to bid a proper farewell to him.

Four years ago, after she divorced Bruce, she gave birth to triplets, two boys and a girl.

The girl was supposed to come with Joanna, but the poor kid was born with a disease, and it was not appropriate for her to attend such an occasion.

So, Joanna only brought her two sons.

She and Jaydon stopped at Raymond’s grave and made three deep bows.

“Kids, bow to your great–grandfather.”

The babies obeyed their mummy and bowed deeply, just as Joanna and Jaydon had done.

A warm family of four.
