The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 807

After two minutes, Joanna walked into the conference room with a gloomy expression. Hundreds of people looked

at her in

unison.

Everyone present was shareholders of the company, as well as high-level managers.

Everett Group had businesses around the world and was involved in various industries. It mainly operated in real

estate and financial investments in Greyport. Its side businesses included supermarkets, hotels, restaurants,

hospitals, etc.

“Hello, everyone.” Joanna walked to the president’s chair and greeted them coldly.

Everyone replied in unison, “Hi, Miss Haynes.”

Joanna sat down calmly in the president’s chair. After everyone quietened down, she said, “The meeting is officially

starting

now.

“Today’s meeting is mainly about a few questions.

“Firstly, Mr. Everett might not be able to come to work for the time being because of his health.

“During this period, I will temporarily take over his work,” Joanna said. After that, she looked at everyone calmly.

“Does anyone have any objections?”

Everyone looked at each other. No one dared to object.

Previously, Joanna had also acted as the acting president of Everett Group.

However, at that time, many people were unconvinced. They openly and secretly made things difficult for Joanna

and refused to cooperate with her at all.

And now…

Bruce directly transferred more than 14 billion dollars worth of assets to her, and the assets under his were still

being transferred to her name one after another.

In addition to her former assets and the Haynes Group, Joanna was the richest lady in Greyport now.

Her fortune was ranked in the top 100 worldwide.

Some people said that a successful woman was supported by countless successful men.

And there were only two reasons for a young female tycoon to succeed.

Either the person who slept with her was a big deal, or the person who slept with her mother was a big deal.

To put it bluntly, either her husband was rich or her father was rich.

However, no matter what, it was undeniable that Joanna had become the richest in Greyport. No matter how others

were unconvinced or slandered behind her back, it didn’t affect her becoming a legendary figure. She also became

a woman that all women in Greyport and Venturas envied. To be able to make a man willingly give so much she was

already a very successful woman.

Of course, there would be people gossiping behind her back, saying she didn’t have much ability and relied entirely

on men.

To think about it, when a person’stood on the top of the pyramid, who would ask whether he stepped up himself or

others pushed him up?

No matter what, the outcome was the most important.

Seeing that no one was speaking, Joanna continued saying, “I’ve been handling some work at the company for the

past two days.

“I’ve also discovered some problems and loopholes in the company. I gathered everyone for a meeting today to

discuss. these problems with you guys.”

After Joanna finished speaking, she gestured for Andy to take out a stack of contracts and documents. Then, she

turned on the projector and opened the conference document.

“These contracts were all signed in the past month.”

As she spoke, Joanna frowned. “I’ve been reading it carefully for the past two days. The problem inside is very

severe. Is it because Mr. Everett isn’t around and everyone thinks you can fish in troubled waters, or is your job this

lax?”

After saying that, Joanna raised her eyes slightly and scanned the crowd with a gloomy expression.

When the people present heard this, they secretly broke out in cold sweat.

This was human nature. When the boss was away for a long time, their work attitudes would gradually relax.

Bruce had not been in the company for such a long time. It was inevitable that these higher-ups would take a

passive attitude

toward their work.

There was no lack of slackers who were slacking off.

As Joanna spoke, she took out a folder and looked at Mr. Walker, a vice president who was in charge of the

engineering department.

“Mr. Walker, Mr. Lincoln, were the two of you in charge of the Jade Water Cloud Project?”

“Oh, oh, yes.”

Joanna’s eyes darkened. “Don’t you think there’s a problem? We don’t even have market approval yet, and you

dare to start construction?

“If something goes wrong, who will take the blame? Will you guys take the blame?”

When Mr. Walker and Mr. Lincoln heard this, they immediately broke out in a sweat. “… Oh, we’ll go back and do a

self-review. We’ll fix it immediately.”

“I want to see a satisfactory answer tomorrow. Don’t blame me for being unkind if you continue to be perfunctory.”

There was a hint of coldness in Joanna’s tone, but she did not step on their pride too much.

“If it was Bruce, they would probably have to immediately pack up and leave.

“Okay, okay.” The two of them nodded hurriedly.

“And who’s in charge of the tempered board project?”

“It’s me.” Mr. Zangwill squeezed out a stiff and dry smile.

“Who asked you to change the Class A material to Class B material?”

“Miss Haynes, this can reduce the cost by 1/3…”

Before he could finish, Joanna interrupted him. “The company doesn’t need to cut corners like this. Recall all the

products of Class B materials immediately.

“All products produced by Everett Group must be of the highest quality in the industry. They can’t be replaced with

defective products or similar products.”

“… Miss Haynes, I… I’m also doing this to save the company’s costs. If you don’t agree, I’ll change back to my

original plan…”

“I’m sorry, but it’s not suitable for you to continue staying in this department. I’ll inform the personnel department

later to transfer you to a new position.”

When Mr. Zangwill heard this, his heart skipped a beat, but he did not dare to refute it. “… Alright!”

Joanna then turned on the projector and explained the company’s loopholes one by one.

Over the past year, Bruce had rarely been in the company. Under the leadership of Liam, the company had already

been in a foul state.

After Bruce returned, although most of the problems were rectified, there were still a small number of details that

he did not have time to sort out.

Now, he could not spare any energy to manage the company. Therefore, Joanna had to perfect i

it for him. him.

Two hours later, Joanna pointed out the problems discovered one by one and personally communicated with the

various departments to implement them.

“All right, I’m done with my questions.

“What questions do you have? Or do you have anything to discuss? You can speak as much as you want now.”

“Um, Miss Haynes, I have a small question.”

Joanna looked at the employee who raised the question and nodded politely. “Please say it!”

“Regarding Everett Group’s expatriate personnel, I feel it should not only assign local employees. Foreign

employees should also enjoy the same qualifications.”

When Joanna heard this, she attached great importance to this suggestion. “Andy, record the question he raised

and deal

with it later!”

“Okay, Miss Haynes.”

“Does anyone have any other questions…”

For the entire morning, Joanna was in a meeting with her employees.

At the same time, she asked Andy to record all the employees’ suggestions.

In the past, Bruce would not have cared about these details, let alone put himself in their shoes.

Joanna was different. She would be more meticulous and pay more attention to the employees’ feelings. In terms

of management, she would not pursue highly intensive management like Bruce.

Hence, after the entire meeting, the directors and higher-ups of the company got to know Joanna again.

The two of them really complemented each other.

Mr. Everett was stubborn, irritable, decisive, and had a bad temper. And Miss Haynes, on the other hand, was

gentle, generous, and relatively approachable.

As for some of the loopholes that Bruce had overlooked, Joanna would make up for him. In terms of management,

she was also more humane.

“Today’s meeting is over!”

“Clap, clap, clap.” Everyone stood up and applauded.

Joanna smiled and left the conference room.

“I really got to know Miss Haynes again today.”

“That’s right! In terms of management, I feel that Miss Haynes’s management model is more humane.”

“Tsk, if Miss Haynes didn’t have any real skills, Mr. Everett wouldn’t have been so easily manipulated by her.”

“Alright, stop discussing the bosses’ private life.” The higher-ups teased and quickly stopped.

At the same time, they also had more respect and recognition for Joanna’s management ability.

“At this rate, it’s very likely that Mr. Everett will transfer Everett Group to himself.”

“You don’t say, it’s really possible…”

After returning to the office, Joanna was a little thirsty after a morning of meetings. After drinking two glasses of

lemonade in a row, her throat felt a little better.

Just as she was about to take a break, she heard a series of beeps.

The phone rang. It was from Darcy.

Joanna quickly answered the call. “Hello, Darcy.”

“Miss Haynes, I’m in Eighcaster now.”

“How is it? Did you find out anything?”
