The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 161

The butler answered the call almost immediately, “Hello!”

“Mr. Korbin, I am Joanna Haynes. I am looking for Mrs. Margaret!”

“Please hold on.”

Margaret was undergoing physiotherapy at that moment. Korbin handed the phone to her and said, “Mrs. Margaret, it is from Miss Joanna Haynes.”

“What’s the matter?” asked Margaret before answering the call. “Hello, Joann!”

Joanna hesitated for a few seconds before going straight to the point, “Grandma, I would like to… I would like to bring the kids back!”

“They are fine here. You don’t have to worry about them.”

“Grandma, I heard that you are going to change their names. Is that true?” asked Joanna tentatively.

“Yup, it is true. They are members of the Everett family after all. How could they follow your surname, Haynes?”

“Grandma, I am going to bring the kids back first. As for the matter regarding changing names, we will talk about it another day…”

Before Joanna could finish her words, Margaret rejected her suggestion directly, “That’s impossible! They are the children of the Everett family. How can

we let them wander around outside?”

“They are my children, Grandma!”

“Joanna, thank you so much for bearing these three children for the Everett family.

“However, we have very few people in the Everett family. Now, with the addition of these three children. It represents the future of the Everett family!

“I know you are capable. But, you lack experience in educating children. The Everett family is the best environment to raise them and let them grow up healthily if you let them stay!”

Joanna became more anxious upon hearing what Margaret said, “Grandma, you can’t do this! No matter what, these three children belong to me!

“I will educate and raise them myself. You don’t have to worry about this. If you want to see the children, I will let them see you anytime you want!

“However, you can’t let them stay with the Everett family forever. You can’t change their names too!”

On the other end of the call, Margaret said with despise, “Joann, I acknowledge that you are the mother of the children. So, you could come over to the Everett mansion to visit your children anytime you want!”

She continued. “However, the children could not stay by your side. They will become the successor of the Everett family in the future. Hence, they have to stay at the Everett mansion. Only then they could be raised in the best environment.”

“Grandma, how could you make such a decision…”

Before Joanna could finish her words, Margaret interrupted her directly and said, “I am doing physiotherapy now. Talk to you later!”

“Regarding the children’s matter, if you don’t agree to it, you may talk to my lawyer!”

Margaret had already made herself clear over the phone. No matter what, she had to keep the children with the Everett family!

“Hello! Hello!” Joanna shouted twice anxiously.
