The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 290 - 287
She did not want to cripple him and be pestered by him her whole life!
"I knew it. You still care for me and can’t bear to hurt me..."
While swinging around his arm that almost got dislocated, Jovan continued to make fun of Joanna, challenging the limit of Joanna’s patience without any fear of the consequences.
Joanna tried her best to calm herself down. "You’re not actually trying to replace Ace and take away everything that belonged to him, are you?"
"Ace is history now. The Moran Group cannot remain leaderless forever. I’m doing the Moran Group a huge favor by taking over the company right now. How can you call that taking away?"
"Hmph, your plan won’t go that smoothly. Even if Ace is no longer here, Grandpa Timothy and Uncle Alexander are. They won’t let you do whatever you want. You should just give up if you know what’s good for you, or you might lead yourself into a desperate situation!"
Joanna had always felt that the Moran Group would not easily have a change in dynasty. There was no way Grandpa Timothy would easily give up everything he worked so hard for.
"Are you concerned for me, my dear sister-in-law?"
"As if!"
Joanna rolled her eyes.
She merely had a feeling that things would not go as smoothly as it appeared to be on the surface.
Jovan’s plan to "replace" Ace was progressing too easily. It did not make sense!
’Your opponents aren’t just Grandpa Timothy and Uncle Alexander.
Everyone in the Moran Group, from employees to partners, admires Ace. You think you can sit on the CEO seat securely? In your dreams!"
Joanna’s words were filled with disdain for Jovan.
She thought it was a joke that a despicable rat like him would think he was good enough to replace Ace!
"No need to worry. Winning people over is very easy. When I become the CEO of Moran Group, I’ll immediately sign a strategic partnership agreement with KCL for the G6 chip. After that, the entire electronic technology field will be under the Moran Group’s control – under my control!"
Pfft!
Joanna could not help bursting out in laughter.
Jovan’s face turned cold. He asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"I’m laughing at how naive you are!"
Joanna slowly said, "Everyone knows that the reason KCL collaborates with H Group is because they have a strong relationship with Ace. Do you think they’ll do the same for you?"
"No need to worry about that..."
With his hands in his pockets, Jovan said with confidence, "As the saying goes, money makes the world go round. I heard KCL had a change in leadership recently. As long as I spend enough money, why wouldn’t the new person in charge collaborate with me?"
"But I heard that the new KCL boss doesn’t lack money. He’s more concerned with his business partners’ character. There’s no way you can pass his character test."
"If a man isn’t greedy for money, then he definitely has a strong lust for women. I lack a lot of things, but definitely not beautiful women. I’ll just send a few girls over to him. I’m sure I can persuade him."
Jovan once again lifted Joanna’s chin despite the lesson he was taught earlier and said meaningfully, ’ After all, I’m a man myself, so I know very well how much influence a woman can have on a man..."
Joanna surprisingly did not fight back. She ignored his transgression and asked with a laugh, "For example?"
"For example, if you really want to save the Moran Group for your deceased ex- husband, you can absolutely use yourself as a bargaining chip to seduce me!"
The man pressed his lips against Joanna’s ear and said vaguely.
Joanna raised her eyebrows and feigned ignorance, "What exactly do you mean? I don’t understand."
"Did I not make myself clear enough?"
Jovan greedily took in the sensation of being so close to the goddess of his desire. His hand boldly slithered towards Joanna’s slender waist. His deep voice was cheeky, but carried a hint of seriousness too. ’In ancient times, there was Helen of Troy, the face that launched a thousand ships. If I can have you, I would launch a thousand ships for you too."
Joanna couldn’t help but roll her eyes. "Get to the point!"
"Simply put, if you become my woman, the Moran Group is yours to do with as you please. If you want it to shut down, it’ll shut down, and if you want it to keep operating, it’ll keep operating."
There was a cold determination in Jovan’s eyes.
The whole world knew that he, Jovan Moran, was just a carefree playboy. He had no interest at all in competing for power or building a business empire.
The reason why he had been working so hard to rise to the position of Moran Group’s CEO and even tried to replace the flawless Ace was ultimately for the sake of obtaining the woman in front of him. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
If Joanna so much as nodded, he would not give the Moran Group or the CEO position a second glance!
"Are you serious?"
Joanna was surprised. Seeing the man’s wild and unrestrained eyes, she seemed to have gained a deeper understanding of this crazy man.
"Of course I am. Money is easy to come by, but true love is hard to find.
Not everyone values career, money, or family honor as highly as the robot like Ace did. I’m not a greedy man. All I want is to be with the woman I love."
The serious expression that was rarely seen on Jovan’s face turned out to be somewhat enthralling.
Joanna shook her head to prevent herself from being deceived by his appearance. She snorted, "Don’t make me laugh. Coming from you, this is more ridiculous than any joke I’ve ever heard."
’You still wouldn’t believe me..."
Jovan shook his head and sighed.
He stared straight into Joanna’s eyes and said, "Come to Moran Group’s public press conference tomorrow morning at 10 o’clock. Hundreds of media outlets from all across the world will be there. The Moran family will officially announce Ace’s death to the public as well as the news of me taking over the position of CEO... At that time, you need only say yes, and I’ll hand over the Moran Group to you in front of all the reporters."
’You’re crazy!"
Joanna forcefully pushed the man away, ready to leave the villa.
"Am I crazy? Try it tomorrow and find out."
"Sorry, I’m busy tomorrow!"
Joanna glared at him and quickly left the villa.
In her opinion, rather than being obsessed with her; what Jovan was truly obsessed with was the feeling of beating Ace.
Obtaining the Moran Group was the first step in beating Ace.
Obtaining her was the second step in beating Ace.
She would not let him win.
Joanna stormed downstairs and, to her surprise, ran into her ex-mother-in law, Susan
