Chapter 35
Bruce smoked two cigarettes in a row. His throat felt parched.
Meanwhile, his handsome face darkened.
He couldn’t take it anymore.
He took out his phone and took the initiative to call Joanna.
“Ring!”
Joanna’s phone started to ring.
It was a pity that Joanna missed the call as she was still in the bathroom, practicing facial management and body movements.
“Ring!”
The phone was still not connected.
“Hello, the person you’ve dialed is currently unavailable…”
“Damn!” Bruce cursed.
With a bang, the phone slammed to the ground.
“This damned woman! How dare she not answer my call!” Bruce cursed in his mind.
Andy frowned upon seeing this.
He picked up the phone, whipped out the SIM card, and replaced it with another phone.
This was the fifth phone that Bruce had broken this month. “No wonder people say that the rich can do whatever they want,” Andy thought to himself.
“Andy, notify Well Street financial market.to block Haynes Group…”
“Noted! By the way, I just got the news that Miss Haynes is holding a press conference tomorrow. There might be an announcement!”
Bruce gulped and scowled deeply. “What? Joanna is holding a press conference?”
“Yes!”
“When did you get the news?”
“Just now.”
“Haha! What is this damn woman up to this time?”
Bruce let out a wild laugh and quirked his brow.
He had nice eyebrows. Both were well–groomed, thick, and heavy.
He looked poised when he raised his eyebrows.
He looked elegant when he was at ease.
It was a pity that his venomous tongue had ruined his image.
Meanwhile, in the Haynes residence, Roxanne was surprised by the news from the press. “Look at
this, Mom!” Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
She added, “Joanna is holding a press conference tomorrow. I wonder what she’s going to announce!”
Ingrid took a peep at the news and swore, “This bitch sure is getting more and more capable. A press conference, huh? Just in time! Tomorrow, ask your uncle and the staff who had been laid off to have a protest in front of their company during the press conference. Get two more people to stir up the scene. Splash her with feces and make her look like a pig!”
The next day, the venue of the press conference held by Grimm Group was well decorated.
Grimm Group had temporarily allowed Joanna to hold the press conference in their office building.
All the invited press were personally arranged by Jaydon.
Those unscrupulous press and undesirable parties were all shunned away.
“I heard that Haynes Group is going under?”
“I wonder if the news is true!”
“It should be true. The shares of Haynes Group have fallen so much in the last couple of days!”
“Then, is Miss Haynes going to announce the bankruptcy in this press conference?”
“Quite possibly!”
“I heard Mr. Everett has siphoned off funds from Haynes Group! Besides that, Haynes Group has laid off many of its employees this month.”
“I heard that Haynes Group is going to be taken over by another company!”
A reporter sighed. “I’ve said that she’s not capable enough. I didn’t expect that she would lead the company into bankruptcy in less than two months after taking charge.”
“Who cares? The news is going to hit the headlines tomorrow!”
Early in the morning, Bruce turned on the TV to see what Joanna was up to.
The venue’s live broadcast had been prepared for a long time!
At nine o’clock, there was a commotion outside as a limousine pulled slowly into the parking lot of Grimm Group’s building.
Some media reporters who didn’t get invited could only wait patiently downstairs.
“Hurry up! Here comes Miss Haynes!”
The reporters swarmed over.
Fortunately, the scene had already been fenced, and a large number of security guards were also standing guard to maintain order.
Rolls Royce stopped.
Jaydon got out of the car first before he gentlemanly helped Joanna out.
Joanna smiled and waved to the crowd.
“Wow, is that… Miss Haynes?”
The entertainment journalists almost couldn’t recognize her.
“She looks so beautiful!”
“I thought she was an artist recently scouted by Starlight Media!”
“Click! Click! Click!”
The flash went wild.
Joanna was wearing a white dress today. A delicate make–up had been put on her fair countenance.
Her pair of iridescent eyes were glistening.
Her hairstyle was sleek and elegant.
Normally, Joanna looked quite bleak in front of the public.
She always wore black rimmed glasses without any make–up or hair styling, and she didn’t usually put on heels.
Her plain attires had dimmed her beauty and hampered her true temperament to shine.
Now that she had taken off her glasses and dressed up properly, her beauty instantly dazzled the eyes of the whole Greyport.
“Wow! Miss Haynes is so beautiful…”
Joanna seemed to be glowing in front of the camera. She was beautiful, confident, and elegant.
“First of all, I would like to welcome you all to this press conference. There are three main announcements for the near future. The first is about getting through the legal process concerning my granddad’s estate! I will officially take over as Chairman of Haynes Group. Secondly, I would like to clear up the recent rumors of the bankruptcy of Haynes Group. Next month, Haynes Group and CI Technologies will officially join hand in hand and become partners. Please continue to support us! Third, some say that Haynes Group has taken a stake in Starlight Media! This is all a
misunderstanding. Although Mr. Grimm and I are very good friends, our business philosophy is
different from each other. So, as for now, we have no business dealings.”

“Click! Click! Click!”
The flashes flickered.
All the lenses were focused on Joanna.
Even the ever–mean–looking Edmeda Media gave compliments on Joanna’s beauty.
