“I also believe that the Everett Group can make further progress under Miss Haynes‘ leadership. I hope
everyone will respect Miss Haynes just as they respect me. At the same time, I urge you all to
cooperate with Miss Haynes‘ work fully,” Bruce said as he observed the shareholder’s reactions.
Seeing the disgruntled expressions on everyone’s faces, it was evident that they were unwilling to
consider Joanna Haynes as their leader.
However, whether they liked it or not, once Bruce made a decision, he would not easily compromise.
Bruce’s tone shifted as he continued his speech, “Of course, if anyone has doubts or questions Miss
Haynes‘ abilities, they can leave the Everett Group today!”
After speaking, Bruce’s sharp gaze swept over the crowd one by one, exuding an unquestionable
coldness. He wanted to make it clear that opposition would not be tolerated.
The previously grumbling individuals suddenly became dejected, resembling mute statues.
Bruce had made it clear that anyone who opposed Joanna Haynes would be kicked out of the Everett
Group.
Who would dare to speak up now?
“Alright, I’ve finished speaking,” Bruce said, his eyes glancing at Mr. Young. “If anyone has any
objections or opinions, please speak up now!”
“You,” he pointed at Mr. Young as he said, “you wanted to express your opinion earlier. Now is the
time.”
Mr. Young’s throat tightened, and he stammered, “…Uh, well, I… I have no objections. I fully support
Mr. Everett’s decision.”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes widened in shock!
He was the one who had been most vehemently opposing the decision just now, rallying everyone to
join the opposition.
But now, as soon as the threat of expulsion from the Everett Group arose, he was the first to back
down.
Seeing that everyone remained silent, Liam could not sit still any longer. He said carefully, “Bruce, it’s
not that I question your decision, but…”
“But what?” Bruce questioned as he raised an eyebrow slightly.
“Are you expressing dissatisfaction with me or with Miss Haynes? I’m sorry if you have issues with me,
but I can pass on my position to anyone I choose. If you have issues with Miss Haynes, I suggest you
hold off for now. After all, she has not officially taken over yet,” Bruce remarked.
Bruce’s response was sharp and decisive, leaving no room for mercy or compromise.
Liam’s throat tightened, his face turning red with anger. He clenched his fists, struggling to find words to
articulate his thoughts.
Bruce no longer bothered to look at him and turned his attention to Joanna. “Miss Haynes,
Chapter 483
your appointment as the president of the Everett Group is an honor for the company,” Bruce said, his
voice filled with authority.
Then, he announced, “Let us applaud Miss Haynes!” After speaking, Bruce led the applause, clapping
his hands enthusiastically.
The rest of the shareholders followed suit, clapping their hands with forced smiles. Their applause
lacked genuine enthusiasm, but they had no choice but to join in.
Bruce’s words had been final, leaving no room for reversal. Any opposition now would be futile and
would only lead to their expulsion.
Even if the shareholders were resentful, they had to endure it. Bruce would not indulge any of them.
They exchanged knowing glances, silently acknowledging the difficult path ahead.
However, there were countermeasures to be taken.
Once Joanna officially took over, these old foxes would find ways to make things difficult for her.
When she could not bear it anymore, she would naturally step down. They had their plans to deal with
the situation.
“Miss Haynes, it’s your turn to give a speech!” Bruce said, gesturing for her to step forward.
Joanna moistened her dry tongue and forced herself to appear calm. “…Hello, everyone,” she greeted
with a nervous smile. “I want to thank Mr. Everett for his trust in me, and I hope we can cooperate well
in the future. I will do my best to manage the Everett Group. For now, I am only temporarily assuming
Mr. Everett’s position. Once Mr. Everett has resolved his personal matters, he will continue in his role.
After her speech, Joanna smiled slightly and took her seat, her heart pounding with anticipation.
These words were purely to appease the shareholders. It would give them the illusion that Bruce would
return soon.
She was acting as a temporary replacement and not permanently occupying the position of the
president of the Everett Group. She knew the delicate balance she had to maintain.
Bruce once again initiated the clapping, his face full of appreciation.
The others followed suit, applauding once more. Their applause lacked genuine enthusiasm, but they
had no choice but to join in.
Joanna, despite her brief speech, felt an inexplicable sense of unease. She had never experienced this
level of pressure during her time at the Haynes Group.
“Alright, does anyone have any questions or comments?” Bruce asked, his gaze swept over the room
with a semi–smile. He maintained a commanding presence, silently daring anyone to challenge him.
“Uh, congratulations, Miss Haynes,” one of the attendees said, his voice laced with insincerity. “I hope
the Everett Group will reach new heights under your leadership and achieve even greater success.”
“Thank you, everyone!” Bruce said, rising from his seat. “That concludes today’s meeting. You are
dismissed!”
Afterward, he walked confidently toward the exit, expecting Joanna to follow.
Chapter 483
Once the pair had left the conference room, a sigh of disappointment filled the air.
The shareholders had all planned to unite and oppose Bruce’s decision, but now their plans had
crumbled. They exchanged glances, silently acknowledging their shared defeat.
“Weren’t we supposed to stand together and oppose him? Why has everyone become mute?” one of
the attendees muttered, his frustration evident.
“Let’s take it step by step! People will be judged by their abilities,” another attendee said, hist voice
tinged with bitterness. “If Mr. Everett insists on passing the position of president to his ex–wife, let him
face the consequences!”
“When she can no longer bear the weight of the position, she will naturally step down!” a third attendee
chimed in, his tone filled with skepticism.
“That’s right, let it be!” another attendee concurred, resignation evident in his voice.
Although they could not unite and overturn Bruce’s decision, they understood each other implicitly.
They would not easily let Joanna lead them by the nose.
These old foxes had their ways of dealing with the situation, silently scheming.
