New beginning: Billionaire love story

Chapter 175 Paparazzi

Jack sat at his desk, the dim glow of the computer screen casting a soft light on his face. The online meeting had started, and he could see the faces of the other shareholders displayed in neat squares on the screen. They were all anxious, the tension palpable even through the digital interface.

"We need to discuss the Metacortex stock market," one of the shareholders, Daniel, began. "It's currently down, and we're all worried about it continuing to fall."

"And what about Claire's marriage to Alex?" added another shareholder, Linda. "It's causing quite a stir in the media. We need some reassurance."

Jack nodded, understanding their concerns. "I assure you, Claire will take care of it. She's been working on a plan."

"But we've been waiting for Claire to address this issue," Daniel said, his frustration evident. "Whether it's true or not, she hasn't said anything."

Jack sighed, leaning back in his chair. "Claire has already thought it through. She just needs time before she goes public with her plan."

"This feels like the Robert incident all over again," another shareholder, Mark, chimed in. "Robert and Claire are no different."

Jack frowned and straightened up, his tone firm but polite. "I understand your worries, but if you don't trust Claire, why are you still with Metacortex?"

The room fell silent, the shareholders exchanging uneasy glances. They seemed at a loss for words, unsure how to respond to Jack's pointed question.

"Look," Jack continued, "I know you're all worried about the company. But Claire has a plan. She knows what she's doing. We need to give her the time she needs."

Linda spoke up again, her voice softer this time. "It's just that the market is so volatile right now. Any bad press could push it further down. We're all invested heavily in this company, Jack. We need some kind of assurance."

"I get that, Linda," Jack replied, his tone more understanding. "But Claire has been dealing with these kinds of issues for a long time. She's not taking this lightly. She's strategizing, considering all angles. She'll address it when the time is right." "What if the right time is too late?" Daniel asked, his voice edged with worry.

"Then we'll deal with it," Jack said firmly. "But right now, we need to trust Claire. She has proven herself capable time and time again. Let's not forget that."

Mark sighed, rubbing his temples. "I just hope you're right, Jack. We can't afford another Robert situation."
