Shaun hung up with a heavy heart. He quickly went to the master bedroom.
Cate was bathing inside. Suddenly, the bathroom door was pushed open.
She almost screamed at the sight of Shaun standing at the door. “What are you doing? I’m bathing now. Get out!”
Although she had sex with him multiple times, she still could not accept him watching her bathe.
Shaun stared at her in confusion.
Previously, he thought he could lead Lyons Corporation to be the top in the world with the microchip. That way, no one could take Cate away from him.
However, Lyons Corporation was under an unprecedented attack.
They had been caught off guard.
Shaun had a feeling that this would be the most challenging time in his whole life. He did not know whether he had the confidence to keep her or not.
“Cate…” He went under the shower and kissed her wet lips hard.
Water poured on them both. Cate could barely open her eyes, but she still pushed him away
furiously. ”Shaun, knock it off! You can’t even leave me alone when I’m having my period.”
“cathy, cathy…”
It was as if Shaun could not hear Cate. He kept kissing her greedily as if it was their final kiss before separating.
Cate felt scared, and she was at a loss from his
kiss.
He only let her go when she almost suffocated and then hugged her tightly.
“Cate, I have to leave due to some matters, ” Shaun said hoarsely by her ear.
Cate was taken aback. Her whole body relaxed, and her tone was cold. “Great, quickly leave. I don’t want to see you every day anyway.”
“ I’ll come back as soon as possible.” Shaun bit her ear lightly.
She felt as if electricity was running through her, but she could not push him away at all.
“Wait for me.”
Shaun let her go. After staring at her with his deep-
set eyes for more than ten seconds, he turned around and left the bathroom.
Cate stood under the shower, still stunned.
She did not know what was wrong with that man. He was just leaving for a while. Did he have to make it look like they were going to be separated forever?
Six hours later, Shaun’s private airplane landed in Canberra.
He immediately rushed toward Lyons Corporation. Although it was already 9:00 p.m., not even one shareholder of Lyons Corporation had left.
What happened today was the biggest crisis ever since Lyons Corporation was established.
Old Master Lyons, Lea, Spencer, Liam, and the others were waiting in the conference room.
When the door of the conference room opened, everyone swarmed over.
“ Shaun, you must give us an explanation for this matter. Lyons Corporation has lost more than 200 billion dollars in a day. Even the companies that signed a contract with us before are suing us for breach of contract. They want a sky-high amount of compensation from us.”
“That’s right. Our company vowed that this would be the world’s one and only top microchip when we signed the contract. However, after the contract
was signed, Landell Group launched a similar microchip. The problem is, although we want to sue Landell Group for plagiarizing our microchip, all the related information in the lab has been deleted.”
“If this matter isn’t solved, the whole company will be forced to stop operating after having to pay the huge amount of compensation for the breach of contract. Moreover, most of the company’s funds have been used to invest in the research and development of the laboratory. Lyons Corporation may go bankrupt.”
The shareholders in the board of directors voiced their distress and anger.
When they heard that the company might go bankrupt, some shareholders started scolding loudly. “ Shaun, this is all your fault! You were the one who insisted on wasting so much money to develop a microchip. Now, you’ve screwed all of us over.”
“That’s right. You have to carry the biggest responsibility in this matter! Besides, the company’s reputation has been utterly ruined because you snatched Wesley’s wife. Not only did
you not step out to solve the problem, but you even hid during the company’s crucial times. As the company’s director, you should’ve handled the launching of the microchip personally.”
“Old Master Lyons, the Lyons family must give us, the shareholders, an explanation today.”
Old Master Lyons’s face changed from being surrounded by the shareholders. Valerie then spoke furiously.
“Why are all of you hovering around my dad? My dad is already so old and he’s fretting over this matter too. Besides, do you think you’re the only ones who are worried? We’re losing our position as the most powerful family.”
“ Stop quarreling. ” Lea raised her voice and coldly stopped them. “The most important matter now is to find the mole in the company. We have to figure out who’s the one who leaked the laboratory’s data.”
“What use is there even if we catch the mole? Even if we catch that person, the reputation of Lyons Corporation will still be tarnished.”
A shareholder said bitterly, “The bosses of the companies who signed contracts with us will look for us with the contracts in hand tomorrow morning. We can’t avoid compensating them. If we don’t pay up, we’ll have to take this to court. Doing so will cause the company’s reputation to hit rock bottom. Who will dare to collaborate with us in the future? What will happen to the company after we compensate the money? Will we go bankrupt?”
“Are you done talking?”
Shaun walked to the front with long strides. The white lights on top shone on his handsome, upright body. His cool aura was filled with the dominance of someone who had sat in the top position for a long time.
“Lyons Corporation won’t go bankrupt. I’ll investigate the matter regarding the leaked data thoroughly. From now on, every senior manager in the company might be the mole. If I find out who the mole is, I’ll make that person’s life a living hell.”
Director Owens suddenly sneered and said, “I think Liam must be the mole.”
Lea and Liam’s expressions changed. Lea said furiously, “Director Owens, please do not simply accuse others. Liam is my son. His last name is Lyons as well. He’ll never do anything to betray the Lyons family.”
“Hah! His last name may be Lyons, but his father’s last name is Campos, ” Director Owens said angrily, “About half a month ago, my wife saw Liam, Mason, Maurice, and Charlie in a coffee house.”
