On the other end of the call, Cora hesitated for a moment. She said, “Miss Haynes, I am pregnant! So, I don’t think I could return to Greyport for the time being.

“By the way, is there any news from Mr. Jameson? How’s the lawsuit going on?”

“Sigh! I heard that it is a little tricky. There are a lot of enterprises that submit joint appeals which led Mr. Everett into bigger trouble now.”

“What will happen to the company if Mr. Everett goes to jail? Is he really going to let Miss Haynes take over it?” said Mark with disbelief.

“What else can be done? We will just have to work as usual then. Anyway, Miss Haynes has already taken over the company. Why are you still having a hysteria?”

Mark drew his lips together and said, “What I mean is that I thought Mr. Everett was joking and would make a better arrangement. Never did I expect that he would hand the company over to Miss Haynes.”
