The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife

Chapter 57

Chapter 57 “Oh, I’m a friend of Ms. Haynes. I came specially to visit her because I heard she had an accident.” “Ms. Haynes is in Ward S. “All right. Thank you.” With that, Gavin went on a mad dash for Ward S. When he got to Ward 8, he saw Ingrid and her husband there, so he dared not intrude. After he lingered around outside for more than an hour, Ingrid and Shaun finally left the ward. Ingrid had gone to the restroom while Shaun had gone to get food for Roxanne and Ingrid. Gavin took advantage of this moment and slid into the ward. He had missed Roxanne to the core. Some time ago, Roxanne told him that she was getting married and would like to end their relationship. That night, he was mad as hell to take Roxanne into his arms, objecting to her wishes. Gavin hadn’t seen her for so many days. The second he heard that she had had an accident, he became a nervous wreck. “Roxy! Roxy…” Gavin ran to the bedside. The moment Roxanne caught sight of Gavin, she broke into a cold sweat. “Why are you here?” Gavin rushed to the bed and hugged her. “I heard something happened to you, so I came to see you.” Roxanne’s face took a drastic change as she heard that. She snapped in a hurry, “You have to go. Don’t show up here. Go now before anyone sees you.” Seeing Roxanne all worked up, Gavin hastily explained, “I only wanted to see you, Roxy. I have no other intentions.” “I don’t need you to see me. Just leave right now…” Roxanne got so emotional that she leaped up in a huff and hurled a pillow at Gavin. That would be logical, for Bruce had finally asked her to marry him. If he were to find out about her relationship with Gavin, she would be so dead. “Fine, fine. Calm down. I’ll leave.”

Gavin didn’t dare to loiter around. With lightning speed, he left the ward. Alas, immediately after stepping out, he bumped into Ingrid. “Who are you? What are you doing in my daughter’s ward?”

“Hello, Mrs. Haynes! I’m Roxy’s classmate. I came to visit her.” Ingrid sized Gavin up from head to toe, only to see his ripped jeans and washed-out whitish T-shirt. In her opinion, he was obviously a poor loser. She couldn’t help but pout and say haughtily, “Do not disturb Roxy! If I catch you sneaking in to look for her again, I’ll kick your a ss!” Gavin didn’t dare to answer. With that, he quickly scurried off. Chapter 57 Ingrid then walked into the ward, frowning. “Roxy, who was that poor loser earlier?” Panicked, Roxanne was a litle flustered as she replied falteringly, “Oh! Uh… He’s just a classmate from university.” Ingrid’s face fell as she listened to her daughter’s response. Noticing her daughter’s uncomfortable visage, she immediately thought of a potential crisis. “Roxy, don’t blame me for nagging, but now that you’re getting married, don’t keep in touch with these scu mbags. What if Mr. Everett finds out?” “Got it. Mom.” “That kind of poor loser is very hard to get rid of, so don’t get entangled with them. Don’t let these poor losers ruin your whole life. I’ve been there before…” Halfway down the line, Ingrid abruptly stopped making a sound. She, too, was frustrated these few days. Two of her so-called cousins were retrenched and had been pestering her day by day. Every now and then, they would ask her for money. She was afraid of her scandals of making love with them would be exposed, so she could only swallow her anger and give them however much penny they asked.

In comparison to her daughter, her acts were much more atrocious. Back then, Ingrid laid eyes on the two of them just because they were good-looking. With that, they often committed adultery together. Every week, they would use the same excuse of playing poker just so they could get into bed with each other. Before this, nothing bad had happened. She had been drawing funds from Haynes Group to satiate those men while enjoying their scandalous services. Yet, ever since Joanna cut their coffers, Ingrid had to pay them with her own money instead. More importantly, those two were getting old, so they gradually lacked the stamina to please her in bed. Therefore, she went to the beauty salon and met another younger, more handsome guy. Not only that, but he had asked for a lower fee from Ingrid. That was why she wished to ditch those two older men. However, the older men made an outrageous demand of 1.5 million dollars each for their dismissal. Only then did she realize that not only were the poor losers poor, but they were also tainted by greed. on the inside. And so, Ingrid was worried that her daughter might follow in her footsteps. Meanwhile, Bruce exited the hospital. All of a sudden, he felt a stinging pang in his heart. He drove straight to Joanna’s house. Even so, he didn’t dare to go up, so he just stayed downstairs for a while. He felt a pri ck in his heart as he recalled the moment Joanna pulled him out of the water. Chapter 37 He was supposed to be with Joanna. Yet, all these years, he had been trapped in a misunderstanding. Now that Roxanne had gotten into this mess, all Bruce could do was bite the bullet and marry Roxanne instead. In a flash, ten days passed.

Joanna had recuperated well, and her arm had gotten a lot better, too. Under her leadership, the order was gradually restored in the company. Without Bruce messing around, Haynes Group’s shares stabilized once more. Back in the conference room of Haynes Group, there was a meeting. “Good news! David, the CEO of CI Technologies Chanaea Division, is coming to Greyport next month to discuss the collaboration. The company has decided to organize a banquet to welcome him.” The company’s executives applauded at the news. “We can finally sign the contract with CI Technologies! H o oray!” “Well, hopefully, it will be a success.” The rest chattered on. As the executives applauded one after another, James and Luca were elated as well as they listened to the announcement. “We owe it to Miss Haynes. With her courage and boldness, we can finally see hope!” Joanna flashed a grin. “As long as we all work together, I’m sure Haynes Group will make it big very soon. After the meeting, Jaydon brought Joanna to lunch. “How I wish my arm would get better soon. If not, I won’t be able to wear my gown to the banquet.” Jaydon suddenly knitted his brows. “Is the CEO of CI Technologies that mixed-blood David?” Joanna nodded. “Do you know him?” “Nope, but I’ve heard of him.” Jaydon sliced the steak on his plate as his brows knitted to a tight knot. In actuality, he had always been in the loop of the background information of those famous figures in the business industry, so he knew them, more or less. Serving the piece of meat into his own mouth, Jaydon went on, “Hmm… Do you need me to get you some public relations officers to attend the banquet?” “Huh? Public relations officers?” Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Joanna was taken aback as she heard his words. “That’s right. If you get some beautiful ladies to accompany you, the contract signing will be smooth sailing.” “That’s not necessary, right?” With a solemn expression, Jaydon put on a half-smile and said, “Joann, you do know the unspoken. rules of the business, right?” Joanna also frowned when she heard his remark. Not only was David mixed-blood, but he was also famous for knowing the domestic market like the back of his hand and being a player at the same time. Chapter 57 To make matters worse, Joanne was a gorgeous single pringle. When she first worked at CI Technologies, David had been taking special care of her. Even though he claimed to have made this trip to Greyport for the partnership with Haynes Group, he had always sent the vice president to sign any contract in his stead in the past. Now that he was going to make a personal appearance, he had to have some other ulterior motive up. his sleeve. “Fine, then.” “All right. There are several A-list models in my company. All of them have voluptuous figures. Plus, they’re all young and beautiful. It’d certainly put up a good image for us to have them at the banquet.”. “But Jay, is it really a good idea? I don’t want you to force them.” “Don’t worry. They’re always looking for extra income. As long as they’ll be paid, they couldn’t be happier to accept the job.” “All right. I’ll pay them according to the market rate.”
