Chapter 16 Return Of Ex-wife

Taking a deep breath, Joanna picked up the contract and went through it. This agreement was extremely strict, and the terms in it were completely overbearing. Given the current state of the Haynes Group, it was barely possible to complete the contract in three years. “This is unfair.” “If you’re afraid of signing it, just say so.” Joanna gritted her teeth with hatred. “Bruce Everett, you’re going too far! Be a man, will you?” “Yeah, yeah,” replied Bruce. “I’m just annoying, alright?” He slumped back in his chair, puffing on his cigarette, looking unconcerned. “If you’re too scared to sign, just quit the Haynes Group!” His arrogant look made Joanna’s insides burn with rage. However, she was not a quitter, not then, and certainly not now. The terms were unreasonable. But if she could finish the task, she could kick Bruce out of the Haynes Group for good! “Fine. I’ll Sign It!” Joanna signed her name on the contract without hesitation. Then she tossed it to Bruce. “Here, what about now?” Bruce smiled devilishly and let out one last puff of smoke. “Well, well, now we wait and see how things are going to end.” Women were stupid. Especially this one! He just teased her a little, and Joanna couldn’t wait to take the bait. Bruce was convinced that Joanna would suffer for sure. “I hope you can do it perfectly,” said Bruce casually. “Otherwise, you’re leaving Greyport, and this time, you are not allowed to come back!” Joanna took another deep breath before shooting Bruce a cold look. “If the contract is completed, you will get out of the Haynes Group!” “Ooh, I’m so scared! I’ll keep my eyes wild open to watch you burn.” With that, Bruce pressed his cigarette butt on the conference table arrogantly, ready to go. As he walked past Joanna, he was suddenly reminded of the naked–photo incident this morning. Anger rose from his inside at once as his thin lips curled into a sneer. “Don’t ever do childish pranks ever again!” said Bruce. “And you shrank my size? Was that to imply that I have never satisfied you in bed? Maybe I should have a go with you right now to remind you how big I actually am.” Looking at his defiant and arrogant expression, Joanna trembled uncontrollably with anger and failed to understand what he said. “What is the meaning of this?” she asked, ice in her voice. “Oh, cut it off, Joanna Haynes.” Bruce was looking down at her. “You just like playing dumb with people, don’t you? Never have the guts to admit anything! Ugh, you disgust me.” Joanna was so mad that she grabbed his tie and pulled him over violently.
