Chapter 177
Margaret pondered for a moment before suppressing her anger and continuing to persuade Joanna
with patience.
“Joann, you can’t take care of three children alone as a single parent.
“Why don’t you let the children stay in the Everett family and receive the best education and resources
since they were young? This is the best arrangement for them!”
Joanna took a deep breath and looked at Margaret calmly. “Grandma, I will educate my children well.
Grandma, you don’t have to worry about their
education!”
Margaret changed her tone from persuading to insisting. “What must we do to make you agree to let
the children acknowledge their father and be a part of the Everett family?”
“If you want to see the children, I can bring the children to see you anytime!
“But I don’t agree with changing the children’s last name to Everett!”
When Margaret heard this, her cloudy eyes turned cold.
Joanna looked at Margaret with the same gaze!
These were her children. In order to give birth to these three children, she almost died in the operation
theater.
In the past four years, she sacrificed all her energy and effort to raise her children. She had endured
the most difficult days.
What right did the Everett family have to snatch her children away now?
No matter what, she would not let anyone snatch her children away!
Bruce’s expression was gloomy and cold. He could not help but scold, “Do you have to be so
stubborn?”
“I’m not being stubborn. It’s a principle!”
Then, Joanna looked at Margaret again. “Grandma, I don’t think I’ll get married again in the future.
“I probably won’t have any more children. I only have these three children. So, it’s impossible to give up
the custody of the children!
“Mr. Everett is a man, and he is at the best age of his life. He still has a lot of chances to have his own
children..
“Grandma also said just now that as long as he asks, there will be a lot of women willing to give birth to
his children!
“He’s about to marry Roxanne. After they get married, they’ll have their children soon! Grandma, you
don’t have to worry about being unable to have a great–grandchild.”
Although Joanna’s words were reasonable, it was impossible for Margaret to listen.
It was not easy for her to have two adorable great–grandsons. They were as precious as gems to her.
How could she give up?
“That’s different. As long as it’s a descendant of the Everett family, our Everett family will definitely take
responsibility to the end!”
Margaret was even more stubborn.
Joanna was also tired of convincing her, so she could only give in a little. “You can acknowledge the
children as a part of the Everett family, but you can’t change their last names.
“I’m the guardian of the children. They want to live with me! I’m concerned and don’t want my children
to stay in the Everett family forever!”
Margaret lifted her head and said solemnly, “Don’t worry. The children will stay by my side. I will take
care of them personally!
Chapte? 177
“I can promise you with my character that I will raise these two children well!”
“Grandma, I’m sorry. I really can’t agree to this request!”
Bruce and Roxanne were about to get married!
After they got married, they would definitely want their own children!
It would always be better to follow the mother as she would usually be more concerned about her
children.
Although the Everett family was a big family, Roxanne might not abuse her children. But based on
Roxanne and Ingrid’s personalities, they would probably use all kinds of underhanded methods to deal
with their children.
Therefore, she could not leave the children behind! After all, it was easy to avoid expected trouble and
not hidden traps!
“Do you have to take the kids away today?”
“Yes!”
“What if I don’t agree?” Margaret put on a displeased expression.
Joanna also changed her tone and stopped calling Margaret grandma. “Margaret, I’m now the
children’s guardian. If you insist on detaining the children, I can only go through the judicial process!”
“I’ve never begged anyone. I’m begging you now. Don’t take the children away!”
“Margaret, if it’s anything else, I can keep it!”
“But they are my children. I really can’t compromise!”
When Margaret heard this, her heart skipped a beat!
Joanna was indeed like what Bruce had said. She was different from other women!
If someone else could give birth to children for the Everett family, not to mention three, even if they
gave birth to one, they would not have to worry about anything for the rest of their lives!
However, she was really unmoved by force or persuasion.
“Name your price! How much will it cost for you to give up custody of the children?”
When Joanna heard this, she felt extremely uncomfortable. “My children are not items to be sold!”
“Joann, you’re still young. There are some things you have to…”
“Grandma, you don’t have to convince me anymore. I just told you that my children are the most
important person to me!
“If I don’t have my children with me, my life will be meaningless! I just want to be with my children. I
won’t give them to anyone!”
Margaret was so angry that his lips trembled. He glared at Joanna angrily.
She had a weak heart. Now that she was agitated, she clutched her chest and panted heavily!
Seeing this, Bruce was even more furious. “Joanna, let’s not talk about it for the time being! You can go
back first!”
“I’m here today to take my children away!”
The adults were talking and did not notice the kids.
Davian and Irvin saw their mommy when they were upstairs.
The two little ones came down from the second floor excitedly.
“Mommy!”
“It’s mommy here!”
After listening, Joanna looked up and saw the two little boys. She quickly walked toward the children.
“Davian, Irvin!”
“Mommy, we missed you so much! Are you here to take us home?”
The two little guys excitedly pounced into Joanna’s arms and hugged her thigh.
“Yes, Mommy came to pick you up today.” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Margaret watched from the side and was even angrier. “Butler, take the little boys back to their room!”
“Yes!”
“You guys take the little boys back to their room.”
When the bodyguards heard the order, they immediately went forward and pulled the children away.
“Mommy! Mommy!”
“Young sir, please be obedient!”
Joanna rushed forward and tried to snatch the children back from the bodyguards. “Let go of my
children!”
Unfortunately, the bodyguards were all strong and well–built. They carried the two little ones and
walked straight upstairs.
She couldn’t take her kids back at all.
“Davian, Irvin!”
“Mrs. Everett, are you determined to keep my children?”
“Yes!”
“As long as I am still alive, no one can take away the descendants of the Everett family!”
“Mrs. Everett, you have to be reasonable!”
Margaret smiled contemptuously. “If reason makes sense, of course, I have to be reasonable! But if I
really can’t reason with you, there’s no need to be
reasonable!”
When Joanna heard this, her entire body froze, and she was actually powerless to refute it!
“Butler, send the guest out!”
“If you insist on doing this, I can only call the police!”
Margaret snorted and said bluntly, “Do whatever you want!
“You’ll soon receive a lawyer’s letter. I’ll hire the best lawyer in Greyport to fight a lawsuit with you!
“At that time, not only will the children not belong to you, but you won’t be able to get any
compensation!”
After Margaret finished speaking, she adjusted her gold–rimmed glasses and looked at Joanna
gloomily!
The butler had already approached Joanna to chase her away. “Ms. Haynes, this way please!”
10:35 Tue, 4 Jul & TE.
“You can’t do this. I want to take the children away!” Joanna was so angry that her entire body
trembled. Even her eyes were red.
“Hurry up and leave!”
“Bruce…”
Bruce tilted his head. “Send Ms. Haynes out!”
“Bruce, you can’t go back on your word! You can’t be like this!”
“Ms. Haynes, this way please!”
Joanna pushed the butler’s hand away fiercely. “Don’t touch me. I can walk by myself!”
“In that case, we can only meet in court!”
With that, Joanna left angrily!
When Margaret saw this, she was so angry that she was out of breath. The family doctor quickly took
out an oxygen mask and gave her oxygen.
Margaret took a few breaths of oxygen before her emotions calmed down a little!
“Grandma, don’t be angry!” Bruce looked nervous as he comforted her.
“Bruce! Joanna is really stubborn. I made a mistake by thinking she was easy to deal with.
“No matter what, we can’t let anyone take away our Everett family’s descendants!
“Since she doesn’t know how to appreciate favors, there’s no need to be nice to her!” Margaret became
angrier as he spoke.
In Greyport, no one had ever disrespected her like this!
Seeing that his grandma was so angry, Bruce could only bite the bullet and agree, “Got it, Grandma!”
“You don’t have to chase me off. I’ll leave this place!” Joanna turned around, hoping to see the children
again.
“Ms. Haynes, please leave first! Don’t cause a ruckus in the Everett family!”
“Hmph, the Everett family is bullying me because they are powerful. I don’t believe that money can
really decide everything in a law–abiding society!”
