Young Bride in a Lightning Marriage: Never Tired of Mr. Leon’s Love

Chapter 147

The room went quiet because Lucy did not say a word.

She stopped trying to grab her papers and just looked at Matthew.

Matthew felt more and more uncomfortable as Lucy watched him. He finally gave up and handed the papers back to her with a sad look in his eyes.

He really just wanted his wife to spend more time with him. Why was it so hard? Lucy took the papers and dove back into her work, not noticing Matthew feeling lonely next to her.

Could Matthew be upset with his wife? No way!

He could not be mad at her! She was his wife, and he was supposed to adore her no matter what. What about the big ball of frustration inside him that he could not let out, though? What was he to do about it?

Quietly, Matthew pulled out his notebook and started planning. He called Kent and asked, "Did you do what I told you to?"

Kent answered quickly, "Yes."

"Then let's finish this up," Matthew said without showing any emotion.

He put away his silly side and turned serious and tough, just like a top businessman should.

Lucy, noticing Matthew on the phone, looked up with curiosity. What did he mean by 'finish this up'? She did not get it. Oh well, it was not her problem, and she went back to her work.

What she did not know was that their city's economy was getting all mixed up.

That evening at seven, a bunch of people no one knew started buying up lots of shares in Lucas Corporation for a lot of money.

Lucas Corporation had been having a tough time ever since they made Matthew mad. Over the past few weeks, the company's share prices had been dropping like a rock.

When shareholders saw someone willing to buy their shares for a lot of money, they sold them off without a second thought.

Timothy, who was already feeling super stressed, only owned 45% of the shares. Another big shareholder had 20%, and the rest were spread out among different people.

Timothy started to worry that the big shareholder was trying to take over when he saw a bunch of shares

being bought up. After he had

someone check it out, it turned

he was worried for nothing-the big shareholder had not bought any more shares.

Just when Timothy thought he could relax, he got hit with more bad news. The shareholder with 20% was selling their shares. At this rate, Lucas Corporation would have to change their name because it would not really be the Lucases' anymore.

Timothy's head was spinning. He called his dad in a total panic to tell him what was happening. His dad was so mad he even broke his teacup "What's going on? Timothy, have you gotten yourself into trouble again?" he yelled. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Timothy tried to explain, but he could no get his words out. He had not really gotten into any trouble lately. Well, unless he counted Lucy and...

Timothy's sudden silence tipped off his dad that something was up. "Is this about Mr. Leon again? Didn't I tell you to go and apologize to him yourself?"

Timothy gritted his teeth.
