Malcolm was speechless.
There was no way. Lyra was really angry. Failing to persuade her, he could only reluctantly return to the sofa and hurry into the work.
The office was instantly quiet, and neither of the two broke the peace again.
The sound of keyboard tapping and writing blended perfectly and harmoniously.
After another two hours, Audrina carefully leaned against the door. She was not pushing it in this time, but waiting for Lyra to come out.
"Miss Lyra, there is a regular shareholders meeting in fifteen minutes. All the directors are already waiting in the meeting room, just waiting for you to go there." "Okay, I'll be right there." Lyra turned off the computer screen, glanced at Malcolm who was on the sofa and seriously writing notes. She did not intend to disturb him, got up and left the office immediately.
In the conference hall.
Seeing Lyra come in, all the directors’ expressions were serious and the atmosphere was subtle.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEspecially Robert, who had just come to the office to look for her, gazed at her.
Lyra sensed it, ignored it, and announced the official start of the regular meeting.
The regular meeting was boring, mainly for the report of the month's marketing report, project progress, etc. And it was long, lasting one and a half hours.
Lyra felt slightly tired, but did not show it, and continued to listen carefully.
It was hard to get to the end of the meeting and she asked as usual, "Do the directors have any other comments? If not, this is the end of this month's regular meeting." Many people were starting to turn off their laptops and pack up their documents when Robert suddenly raised his hand and stood up.
"Miss Lyra, | went to the office today to look for you and found Mr. Malcolm there. You didn't see me, so what the hell were you doing with him in the office?" The people in the room was shocked when he said these words.
Many people stared at Robert in amazement, giving him a silent thumbs up.
In front of so many people, he asked about things between unmarried couples. It was clear that he wanted her to be embarrassed. That was really brave! Lyra looked cold, not feeling embarrassed at all. Then she replied carelessly, "Mr. Robert, next week is my wedding. What else do you think | can do with him?" Robert's face grimaced, "As the CEO, you were flirting in the office. Miss Lyra, you're not ashamed of it. So maybe you have accustomed to it." "With your incompetent behavior, how can you convince all our directors that you can lead the Lloyd Group well!" Lyra slammed the table with a loud bang and a lot of people were shocked.
When she was angry, her aura was strong and stern.
"I can't lead the Lloyd Group well, can you? Can you guarantee it if this position is given to you?" "What's wrong with flirtation? Mr. Robert, you bring this kind of thing to the meeting openly. Should | say you inter-meddle, despise your leader, no discipline?" "Besides, I'm incompetent ? I've only been in office for a few days and you can tell | can't get the company's revenue up for the year? Do you have the ability to foretell?" Many people on the scene whispered and sneered.
"You! Unbelievable!" Robert's whole face turned livid. He just said a little but Lyra replied a lot. She completely ignored him as the company's senior member! Lyra grunted coldly, glaring at him.
"Mr. Robert, although you've been a senior member of the company for 30 years and have a high position, you can't behave like that. I'm not going to give in to you like Collin! Today's incident, you should receive punishment according to the rules!" "Lyra Lloyd!" Robert was so angry, "Even your father has to respect me. Do you dare to punish me as soon as you come here?" "You're surprised?" Lyra raised her eyebrows and smiled carelessly, "A new official applies strict measures. Today you are the one who provokes me. You can't blame me!" Robert was reluctant and had to take Malcolm's case and continue to make an issue of it.
"Lyra, you've been bringing Mr. Malcolm for the past few days, and you let him stay in the office. He is the president of White Corp and our two companies have a competitive relationship! | seriously suspect that you are defying the rules and leaking company secrets!" This was a serious matter! All the directors instantly looked straight, and the meeting room fell into a solemn and serious atmosphere.
Lyra didn't think so. She actually wanted to say that not only did she leave him in her office, but she allowed him to see all the documents! But once she said these words, all directors would be furious on the spot.
It was expected that a voting meeting would be held tomorrow to expel her.
Thinking of this, she smiled lightly as she took out the trump card.
"Mr. Robert, I'm pregnant with babies, twins." When she said this, Robert froze in place, not reacting to what she meant.
Lyra continued, "The doctor said that extra care has to be taken. Malcolm is following me so that he can take care of my body.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDoes this kind of thing need to be reported to you?" "You..." His face turned pale and he couldn't say a word.
The other board members quickly responded and wished Lyra well.
"Congratulations! This is a good news! You and Mr. Malcolm are both blessed!" "Yeah, you're pregnant and still working so hard. It's only right that Mr. Malcolm helps you out!" "Mr. Malcolm puts aside White Corp's work to prioritize Miss Lyra and the babies. That's real sweet! You and Mr. Malcolm are truly in love. It makes me enviable!" Their flatters made Robert's face distorted, but he could not say a word.
Malcolm came to the office every day to take care of his pregnant future wife. Who could say it was not the right thing to do? As for stealing company secrets, it became a false accusation.
Lyra grunted and her eyes turned cold, "Mr. Robert, you have challenged my authority more than once today. It seems the punishment was too light!" Robert had nothing to say, and finally had to reluctantly accept the doubled penalty he had earned.
Because of this incident, Lyra was upset and returned to the office being sullen.
Malcolm felt that the moment she entered.
He was speeding up the annotations. Then he stopped and looked up her to ask, "Rara? Did the meeting not go well?" "Yes, Robert, that old man. Ask for a punishment!" Malcolm laughed, "So did you get what he wanted?" Lyra pointed to her belly, being proud, "With the babies, | can't lose! In the future, when they get bigger, my belly will be big too.
Who still dares to clamour!?" He laughed and hurriedly got up to hug her and carried her back to sit on the sofa, clinging to her and coaxing her.
Lyra's good mood was soon restored by him, but she remembered another important matter.
"How are you getting on with the annotations? Are you done? How many are missing?" Malcolm was ready to kiss her, but was stopped.
