His Beloved Ex-Wife

Chapter 726 Days Without Him What Lysander feared the most had indeed come to pass.

Fifteen days after Josiah disappeared, it was coincidentally the day of the shareholders' meeting. The attendance was higher than any previous meeting.

Upon noticing that Josiah hadn't returned, the shareholders grew restless once again.

During this period, Lysander had never let up. She would reinvigorate herself and steel her mind to handle her work. Face with this situation, she actually felt relieved.

The inevitable is finally here. Things will get better once I survive this.

During the meeting, the heads of each department presented their reports as usual. The manager of the business department was the last one to stand up to speak.

He didn't address Lysander by her temporary position in the company but rather by the status bestowed upon her by Josiah. Although the question sounded reasonable, his attitude was clearly disrespectful toward her.

Carol genuinely wanted to assist Lysander, but given her role as the meeting's moderator, it wasn't appropriate to do so, as she couldn't show any form of favoritism. At most, she could only give the latter a subtle look.

Lysander returned her gaze with a reassuring look. He was already accustomed to such predicaments and responded in a calm voice, "Do you have any insights on the matter, Mr. Shelton?"

"So it's not decided yet." Josiah continued, "What do you plan to do with the large sum of money made available, Mrs. Guerra? Are you going to just let it sit there, or... do you have other plans?"
