Chapter 201 Divorce for Barry
She messaged: [Let's meet.]
At the same time, Jackson was listening to the chip team about the latest technology in the technology department of the tech group under Star Group, which had been invested in for over two years without any returns.
Several directors and the technical staff members were arguing about whether to continue investing in this project.
Jackson wore a cold expression. When his phone rang and he glanced at it, everyone saw him visibly relax.
Jackson picked up his phone and glanced at it again. After he confirmed that he wasn't mistaken, a faint smile appeared on his face .
This smile was somewhat untimely. The noisy meeting room suddenly quieted down, and the atmosphere became eerie.
Jackson replied quickly: [Okay.]
He stood up and said, "Breaking through the barriers of cutting-edge technology through technological innovation takes time. If you're arguing now, will you fall out if there's no result from this technology next year? In that case, I will buy back your shares at a price 20% higher than the market value today. If you feel you can't see a return, you can now find the secretary, Terry, to cash out your shares and leave. Mr. Parker, Mr. Wilson, do you want to set an example first?"
The two mentioned directors were the most vehemently opposed; they exchanged a glance and then smiled awkwardly.
"Mr. Frane, we're not in a hurry," Ethan said.
"Yeah. We aren't afraid since you are so confident. We must continue to invest!" Percy added.
Jackson nodded. "That's settled then. The meeting adjourned."
He walked out, but Ethan and Percy stopped Terry to inquire.
"Mr. Frane spoke so calmly and nicely just now when we argued so much. Why is he in such a good mood today?" Ethan asked.
"Yeah. Has Star Group had any new developments recently? Terry, give us a hint," Percy asked.
Terry remained silent.
He looked at them, unable to speak.
Should he tell them that Jackson seemed to only care about business but was actually a deeply hidden relationship master?
Jackson's sudden good mood was just because Lillian had talked to him after many days.
This was too disillusioning.
Lillian was going to the hospital today.
She had already bought a ticket for three days later. Before leaving, she had to send Max abroad.
Given Max's current condition, it was necessary to have medical personnel accompany him all the way to Phantom Kingdom to ensure a safe journey. She needed to discuss this with Barry.
Lillian planned to meet Jackson first and then go to the hospital directly.
Therefore, the meeting place she arranged with Jackson was a coffee shop near the hospital.
However, Lillian didn't expect that she would run into Barry before meeting Jackson.
"Barry, what are you doing here?"
Barry walked into the coffee shop alone, surprising Lillian.
Barry also froze, smiling. "My colleague wanted to consult me about some medical matters, so we agreed to meet here. What about you?"
Since they had met and Jackson hadn't arrived yet, Lillian smiled, "Would you like to have a cup of coffee with me? We can discuss Max's situation."
Barry replied with a smile, "I'd be delighted."
Barry sat opposite Lillian. As the waiter brought the coffee, a woman rushed over and grabbed the coffee on the table, splashing it toward Lillian.
"You mistress!" she scolded.
"Be careful!" Barry shouted.
Barry reacted quickly. He stood up and pulled Lillian behind him.
Most of the coffee splashed on Barry, and only a few drops landed on Lillian's hand.
"Are you okay?" Barry asked.
He turned around and checked Lillian's hand.
It was only then that Lillian came back to her senses, frowning as she looked over.
Lillian saw Jenny being pulled down by Barry and hitting the nearby table. Her eyes were red with anger, and she glared over.
Seeing Barry holding Lillian's hand, Jenny was worked up.
"Barry, is Lillian divorcing Jackson because of you?"
