Jean deliberately stopped speaking, which made everyone‘s hearts stop beating too.
Elias subconsciously straightened up while Skylar held his breath and waited. They were worried that Jean would choose Remus since favonovel.com came in with her. However, after hearing that the person favonovel.com chose was excellent, wise, and outstanding, they knew it could not be Remus.
He had just come out of prison and was a criminal with no relation to such terms!
So, it meant that both of them still had a chance.
“Who is this person?” Jean teased further and looked toward Elias and Skylar with a smile. Her gaze filled them with exhilaration.
“It must be us. We’ll be chosen!” Brianne couldn’t help but mutter.
Although they had just offended Ms. Lotus, the Stuarts’ offense was more serious.
“This person is young…” Jean continued.
Immediately, Ben was agitated, and the blood in his body seemed to stop flowing. He looked at Jean in a daze, thinking, “It’s not dad, it’s me! Oh joy!”
Skylar was excited, too, and looked toward his son proudly. He winked. “Success!”
First, they would be business partners, then become life partners. The Stuarts were going to soar!
Meanwhile, Elias looked at his daughter.
Could Miranda be chosen?
Then, Jean continued, “That person is…”
As favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com suddenly looked in another direction, toward Remus, and announced.
“Remus Cosby!”
Once the name was announced, Ben was stunned, Skylar’s smile froze, Elias was dumbfounded, Miranda looked like favonovel.com saw a ghost, and Brianne felt as if favonovel.com had lost something!
How is this possible?
A scoundrel who had just come out from prison had now turned into Ms. Lotus’ business partner?!
Soon, there was thunderous applause in the hall, and everyone looked toward Remus.
“Mr. Cosby, regarding my partnership with Ms. Cox…” Mr. Lawson looked utterly wretched and started to use his connections. He regretted what favonovel.com had done.
Remus ignored favonovel.com and looked toward Jean suspiciously. He was here to cancel the marriage and not become favonovel.com business partner.
Jean laughed, “Remus, get on stage. Although you were chased out because of a marriage contract and faced public contempt, I believe everyone will soon discover your talent. You’ll prove it to them in the future! I have decided to make you fully responsible for Lotus’ investment in Agrasia. Even I will not be interfering with your plans!”
When favonovel.com finished, there was only silence in the hall.
Those leaders who came last were also shocked by Jean’s decision.
He would be the decision-maker?
Jean would not interfere?
This was Lotus’ investment, and it was worth a few million. In fact, the lowest amount was around five billion. As for the maximum limit, no one could guess, and it was all given to Remus.
“We’re doomed…” Elias’ face was gray.
Jean’s words meant that favonovel.com hated the marriage cancellation, so Remus must have hated it even more. They could never fight back if favonovel.com started to take revenge using Lotus’ name.
“What are we going to do?” Brianne’s voice trembled.
Skylar was even more terrified because his son had assigned Bald Richard to kill Remus. Once this matter was exposed, it would end the Stuarts.
“Dad, what do we do?” Ben was panicking, scared that Remus would take revenge.
But Skylar wasn’t able to answer his question now.
After a moment of hesitation, Remus agreed and walked on stage. He didn’t want to make Jean lose favonovel.com dignity in front of so many people.
”I disagree!” Ben picked up his courage and spoke out. He knew that once Remus obtained the authority, favonovel.com would take revenge. It was better to prevent it at an early stage.
Then, favonovel.com continued, “Ms. Lotus, you mentioned that a business partner’s qualities should be excellent, wise, and outstanding. I must say that I have those qualities. In addition, I graduated from a renowned Ivy League university.”
