Remarriage His Billionaire Ex-Wife

Chapter 265

　　Jessica did not reply. She lowered her head and cut a piece of steak. Then she put it in her mouth and began to chew. The meat juice spread in her mouth and the aroma of the steak gradually filled her mouth and nose.

　　However, Jessica felt an inexplicable sense of bitterness somehow.

　　She took a sip of water, put down her knife and fork, looked at Hannah, who was eating happily, and said, "I'm full. Enjoy yourself. I'll go back to work now." Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

　　"You only ate a little, Jessica. What happened to you? You don't like the steak here?" Hannah glanced at Jessica's plate and asked.

　　"I've got something to deal with. You can order whatever you want. My treat." Jessica stood up, patted Hannah on the shoulder, and quickly left the steakhouse.

　　Jessica returned to her office. She sat in front of the table and pondered.

　　Ever since their wedding, the Thomas family had never gone out of trouble. Jessica was just an outsider, yet even she felt worried. Lucas must feel overwhelmed.

　　"Miss Hall, the Planning Department is waiting for you. The meeting is about to start." Wendy took the materials and entered Jessica's office.

　　Jessica collected her thoughts and nodded at Wendy. "I see. By the way, help me look into a guy."

　　"Yes, Miss Hall." Wendy immediately replied, then she asked, "May I ask who you want me to investigate?"

　　"Oscar Thomas," Jessica said.

　　Wendy froze for a moment. She did not expect Jessica to be interested in Oscar, but she still nodded and left Jessica's office to carry out the work that Jessica had arranged.

　　A few days later, the Thomas Group held a shareholder meeting. When Lucas walked into the meeting room, he saw Oscar sitting at the end of the executives.

　　Oscar smiled at him, and a mocking smile appeared on Lucas' lips.

　　Just as Lucas had expected.

　　As soon as Lucas sat down, a shareholder of the group took the recent business report and began to ask questions.

　　"For the current decreasing stock price of the Thomas Group, may I ask if Mr. Thomas has any countermeasures?"

　　"It's affected by public opinion. The current stock price vibration is reasonable."

　　"Reasonable?"

　　Before Lucas could finish his sentence, a shareholder interrupted him with a mocking tone. He looked at Lucas and said with dissatisfaction, "Do you know that this means we are all suffering great losses? It is not something that you can dismiss by saying 'it's reasonable'!"

　　"Although the current stock price of the company has been affected by the negative news of Lucas, I think he has been working hard to solve it. Give him some time," Oscar suddenly said.

　　He seemed to be speaking up for Lucas, but in fact, he was shifting blame. It sounded like it was all Lucas' fault.

　　"Even the irrelevant ones got invited? How did you arrange it?" Lucas gave Vincent a cold glance.

　　Vincent broke out in cold sweat. He quickly apologized, "Sorry, Mr. Thomas. I don't know how he sneaked in."

　　"Vincent, don't make me sound so impolite," Oscar said flatly. Then he looked at Lucas and said, "Dad has shares too. He has already transferred his shares to me, so I have the right to sit here."

　　"Mr. Thomas, I don't think it's suitable to settle your family affairs now. Since he is qualified, let's continue the meeting." An executive in the group helped Oscar out at this time.

　　Lucas took a deep look at him, then said to the executive, "Mr. Bruno, do you have a solution?"

　　"I don't. I'm just an ordinary manager. Speaking of solutions, I think we can get Oscar to join the talk. After all, we can't just sit still and wait for the worst to come. The assets of the shareholders will continue to be affected. Maybe Oscar's participation will increase the confidence of the market in the Thomas Group," Bruno cleared his throat and said.

　　His words were approved by most of the shareholders.

　　Vincent looked nervously at Lucas, only to find that Lucas was very calm. He didn't seem to be irritated.

　　After the meeting, Vincent followed Lucas to the office. He asked tentatively, "Mr. Thomas, what should we do now? Are we just going to let Oscar take the authority?"

　　Lucas lit a cigar and said, "He came prepared. Of course, he won't give up until he reaches his goal. But that's all he can do."
