Billionaire, Let's Divorce! by BELLA

Chapter 0170

Silence descended the room, wrapping everywhere like a cloak of thick blanket. People exchanged looks before they settled their gaze on Lucas.

I looked at Lucas' unfathomable expression and I wondered why he was doing all of these? What was the need for this power he was seeking to gain? Why did he have to take revenge after he had forgiven them? Had he been waiting all these while for Doris to be out of the picture before he made his move?

I sighed. I couldn't quite fmdrag my gaze from this man addressing everyone, his eyes willing everyone to raise their hands and vote to support him. He seemed too unfamiliar, too cruel. Where was my softhearted Lucas? The one who shrugged and said, "it's all in the past now."

A hand slowly raised in the air and all heads turned to the man that raised his hand. Almost a second later, another person raised their hand, voting their support and in mere minutes, several hands of the shareholders that supported Lucas were up in the air.

As they continued to raise their hands, my heart sank further down, I could already see Mark losing his position and I imagined Lucas cruelly kicking him out of the company.

The door to the conference room suddenly burst open and all heads turned to see Mark leisurely and confidently stride in, his chin in the air and his assistant in tow. When he was well into the room, he glanced at everyone with that indifferent set of facial expression,

He tutted nastily, "A shareholder meeting was going to be held and no one informed me?" He raised a mocking brow, "You think that would make removing me from my position any easy?" He scoffed and settled his biting stare on Lucas, "How desperate are you?"

Maybe it was his hypocrisy or the assured way he spoke but slowly, most of the shareholders retracted their hands.

have anything to worry about. This man here is all talk and that's all. He has only forty six percent of the Group's shares. If you all cooperate with me, together, we'd have forty nine percent of the shares. As long as we unite, we can redistribute the speaking rights of

I wanted to go up there and give him a pat on the shoulder and afterward tell him that I am proud of him. We all watched as she made his way to the podium, literally snatched the microphone from its stand and spoke into it.
