Chapter 80

Margaret was a proud person. Naturally, she understood what Joanna meant.

Margaret knew her grandson’s personality well. As for Joanna, she could tell that Joanna was a strong and proud person from the words she spoke.

Some things were probably Bruce’s fault.

Margaret looked back at Joanna kindly. “Don’t worry. I will advise Bruce.

“No matter what, the Haynes Group is your grandfather’s hard work. I don’t wish for the Haynes Group to suffer any negative impact too!”

Thank you, Grandma!”

“Goodbye!”

“Goodbye, Grandma!” Joanna personally sent Margaret downstairs.

Joanna heaved a long sigh of relief once she had sent Margaret away. She could not help but feel a little nervous and prayed that Margaret could manage Bruce.

Joanna was confident she could manage the Haynes Group well as long as Bruce did not play any tricks behind her back.

Bruce returned to the Everett mansion as promised over the weekend.

He would go back for dinner with his Grandma every weekend on time.

Bruce pretended to be nonchalant during dinner time. “Grandma, I heard that you went to see Joanna?”

“Yes,” Margaret replied calmly.

Seeing that Margaret did not continue, Bruce couldn’t help but ask after a while. “And?”

“That’s all.”

“Oh… Bruce gently took a sip of the ginseng soup. His eyes were unfocused.

Margaret suddenly sighed after checking her grandson’s reaction.

“The children are not of the Everett family. In the future, don’t make things difficult for Joanna.”

Bruce’s heart tightened when he heard this.

The spoon in his hand fell into the bowl, generating a crisp, ringing sound.

“How did you know, Grandma?”

Margaret put down the cutlery in her hand. “Joanna showed me the children’s birth certificates and paternity test results.

“I have checked. The certificates are real. So, the children are not of the Everett family.”

Bruce instantly felt the blood rushing to his head and a hint of hatred gathered in his eyes.

Joanna had cheated on him during their marriage!

Bruce could not take it anymore. He fervently wished that he could settle the score with Joanna right then.

Margaret observed her grandson’s reaction and continued, “In business, we prioritize benefits. Even more important is
