The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna)

Chapter 59

“Gavin, I’m really getting married. Let’s not contact each other ever again. Here, there are 40 thousand

dollars on this card. Treat it as my compensation for you. Don’t come bothering me again.”

Gavin took a puff on his cigarette and blew it toward Roxanne’s face.

“I don’t want any money, Roxy. I only want you.”

As Roxanne was getting dressed, she said peevishly, “You already know it, Gavin. I’m getting married.

into the Everett family, and you simply can’t give me the happiness I desire. If you really love me, don’t

stand in my way and take my happiness away from me.”

Gavin leaped up and embraced her again. “I’ll never stand in your way, Roxy. I won’t even stop you

from marrying into the Everett family. I only hope that we can continue our relationship. Even if you’re

married, you can always call me up…”

“No way! You’ll only get me killed!”

Roxanne spurned his wishes outright.

“But, Roxy…”

Before anything else could happen, Roxanne had already finished tidying up herself and scurried out

of the sushi bar.

Unlike the Haynes family, the Everett family traveled everywhere with bodyguards.

If she were to stay entangled with Gavin, Bruce would undoubtedly be informed one way or another.

“The happiness that I’ve traded with my life mustn’t be made a blunder by Gavin!” she yelled in her

heart.

Half a month later, David finally arrived at Greyport, along with several senior members of CI

Technologies.

The engagement banquet of Bruce and Roxanne would also take place early next month.

At Everett Corporation, Andy reported to Bruce about work as usual.

“What? Joanna is throwing a banquet just to receive the CEO of CI Technologies?”

“Yes. I heard that the CEO of CI Technologies Chanaea Division, David, will come to Greyport for an

on-site inspection. Miss Haynes is going to hold a coc ktail party to welcome him and his entourage. At

the same time, they’ve invited some elites in the industry as well. It looks like Miss Haynes is ready to

give it her best shot and become a part of the Greyport business community.”

Upon hearing the story, Bruce put on a darkened visage.

“When’s the event taking place? Why am I not informed?”

“The message from Miss Haynes only came in yesterday. I’ve just received the message, too.”

“Was I not invited?”

When Andy heard that question, he looked at Bruce in astonishment.

That would make sense, for Bruce had always loathed that sort of crowded event. On top of that, he

had never wanted to attend any of those gatherings.

Consequently, Joanna didn’t send him an invitation either.

“Well… I don’t think so.”

“No matter what, I’m still a shareholder of Haynes Group. How can they not invite me for that? Call

Joanna and tell her I’m attending.”

*All right!”

Andy was about to make the phone call when Bruce opened his mouth once more and said, “No,

wait… Forget it.”

In his mind, if he wanted to join the banquet, no one would have the nerve to stop him, be it with an

invitation card or not.

Moreover, the vast majority of the public had been longing for Bruce to show up at their events.

Hence, he reckoned there was no need for him to request Joanna for an invitation because no one

would be so foolish to shut the man of fortune out.

And so, the banquet went off as planned at a mansion by the beach that Joanna had rented.

In addition to welcoming David and his entourage, she had also invited celebrities from all walks of life,

as well as the senior executives of Haynes Group.

Needless to say, several female artists under Jaydon’s wings also showed their support.

Initially, Jaydon himself was going to be there, too.

Sadly, his father suddenly fell ill and was admitted to the hospital. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

The butler rang Jaydon up and ushered him to rush back home.

Having no choice, he made a beeline for Venturas.

At the banquet, everyone was decked in their tuxedos and nightgowns. They toasted each other and

clinked their glasses as they exchanged pleasantries.

Those stunning models were dressed in an ever-so-s exy manner, only to attract the eyeballs of many.

Naturally, a bunch of men came up to hit on them.

Despite that, they were all willing to show up at such occasions, for not only would they broaden. their

network, but they also could earn a quick buck from this.

Most of the people who came to this kind of banquet were all wealthy elites.

From the models’ perspective, if they could h o ok up with a big shot, they could then. escape the

struggles of life and rise to the top very easily.

Soon after, David and his gang from his company reached the venue.

Immediately, both Cora and Luna welcomed them in.

David was born mixed-blood, and he was 6 feet tall.

His facial features were chiseled, and he was quite outspoken.

“Welcome!”

“Hello! Nice to meet you all.”

David was omniscient about Chanaca, so he knew about their domestic affairs inside and out.

The second he made his entrance, he instantly garnered everyone’s undivided attention.

Celebrities from all walks of life came forward to get to know him.

“Wow! So, that’s the CEO of CI Technologies Chanaea Division? He’s a famous bachelor.”

“Goodness gracious! I never thought he’d be so young and handsome!”

“Come on! Let’s head over to say hello.”

A couple of gorgeous models and socialites also made their way over to David’s side

Very quickly, there was another commotion at the entrance.

A dozen bodyguards in suits and sunglasses cut through the crowd to make way.

Immediately afterward, a stiff-looking lavish man in a suit was seen striding in.

His powerful aura gave off tension all over the place at once. With that, pin-drop silence engulfed the

atmosphere right away.

“Gosh! Who’s that?”

“Is that Mr. Everett?”

“Oh my Go d! I think it’s Mr. Everett.”

“Wow! Even Mr. Everett is here. Today must be my lucky day. I didn’t expect to see him!”

“Indeed! Wow… I didn’t know Mr. Everett was so good-looking in person.”

A few socialites couldn’t help but feel starstruck. They seemed to be total nymp homaniacs.

Bruce had never attended any parties like this, so even if they had been dying to get close to him. they

had never gotten an opening before.

And now, Bruce was right before their eyes.

For an instant, all socialites had diverted their attention and were eager to snuggle up to Bruce.

Someone piped up at that moment, “Oh, forget it! Mr. Everett is already engaged, all right?”
