Chapter 2547: Chapter 2556: Just as Expected, a Grand Gift
However, unexpectedly, Baron Lawrence refused her, and later she posted the photos online to try to force him. Who would have thought that the Oscar Family had already figured out a way to handle it.
If Baron Lawrence hadn’t come to her today, she would have forgotten about this matter.
Oscar wasn’t a fool, and with what Skye Lawrence said, he had already roughly deduced what was going on.
He withdrew his earlier insincere smile, furrowed his brow, and turned to instruct the driver, "Give me the phone."
"Yes, Young Master."
The driver hurriedly found the phone and handed it to him.
Oscar took the phone, calculated the time, and opened the news page.
There was still nothing on the News App.
He browsed through it and only saw a few scattered celebrity gossip, completely unable to discern anything.
He hated this feeling of being out of control, and a wave of irritation surged uncontrollably in his heart.
Skye Lawrence also saw that he was checking the news and, after a moment of contemplation, said, "Maybe the gift Baron mentioned has to do with stocks. Why don’t you check the company’s stock situation?"
"It’s not stocks." Oscar decisively dismissed her guess, refreshed the phone page again, without lifting his head, "If it were stocks, he wouldn’t come personally to remind me not to miss the ’big gift’. Plus, he specifically told me the time, which means this gift must be a live broadcast!"
But what exactly it was, he couldn’t guess at all!
Ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye.
Oscar’s phone dinged, and sure enough, a pop-up news alert appeared right on time.
"Here it is."
He immediately clicked on it to see what kind of counterattack Baron Lawrence had notified him about—
The news wasn’t sent in text form but as a video live stream. As soon as he clicked in, it turned into a video. The driver’s phone volume was quite loud, and the reporter’s voice was clear and crisp, "This morning, we received news that after the Executive President of the Oscar Group was investigated for a bribery incident, a new director is about to parachute into the Oscar Group. It is said this new director is now the second-largest shareholder of the Oscar Group and is also the Executive President’s stepson’s illegitimate child who was lost outside. As this new director with a complicated background enters the Board of Directors, the Oscar Group is bound to start a two-dragon rivalry. However, who will win or lose this competition remains unpredictable for now.
Interestingly, not long ago, the Lawrence Corporation had just undergone a thrilling succession battle. One of the main characters of that century-old succession battle is now the wife of the Executive President of the Oscar Group. Former Vice President of Lawrence Corporation, Ms. Skye Lawrence. I wonder if Ms. Skye Lawrence will devise strategies for President Oscar in this struggle?"
The reporter’s enunciation was clear, and every word was articulated clearly enough for the three people present to hear clearly.
Skye Lawrence was pale-faced, never expecting Baron Lawrence to be so discourteous and give her such a ’gift’.
The driver didn’t look too pleased either, stealing a glance at her with discontent, then worriedly turning to Oscar, "Young Master, did you not know about this?"
"No, I didn’t." Oscar’s stubbled handsome face was tense, his azure eyes somber.
Indeed, it was a ’big gift’ worth Baron Lawrence personally reminding him to check. He hadn’t even known that the man had an illegitimate child hidden for so many years!
Moreover, for such a major event as adding a director to the Board, as the Executive President, he hadn’t heard the slightest hint beforehand!
