The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 449

Jacob and Seth's withdrawal from Startech had thrown Startech into turmoil.

As if this was not enough, several of Startech's regular customers had suddenly announced that they were terminating their contracts with StarTech and they would cooperate with Seth and Jacob's new company. They were willing to pay StarTech a huge compensation to do that.

Startech's market value plummeted, and Julian looked like a drowned mouse every time he appeared.

Many newspapers were using the headline "fall of the commercial giant” to refer to Julian. After all, ever since Julian had taken over Lanyard at the age of 18, he had

been a renowned prodigy. He'd had a smooth-sailing journey as he had expanded Lanyard, and this was the first time he had come across such a huge crisis.

Everyone was wondering how this could have happened. Thus, they thoroughly investigated the matter, and the news of Julian and Susan getting a divorce was exposed.

Jacob was Susan's brother, so it was perfectly understandable that he was doing this for the sake of his sister. As for Seth, h e and Jacob were birds of a feather, so it made some sense in certain aspects that h e would leave Julian for Jacob.

As for the several customers who ended their contracts with StarTech, after they investigated the matter deeper, they discovered that most of them were

somewhat related to the Wrights and the Harris.

The Wrights and the Harris had never been involved in business, but they were very influential in both the business and the political sphere. Both families were one of the largest families, and they had gained a tremendous amount of connections throughout the years.

It was also worth noting that the Wrights and the Harris were the reason StarTech had found its footing so soon in the market. Thus, Julian and Susan’s divorce must have incurred the wrath of the Wrights and the Harris. As a result, it was reasonable for those companies to cut ties with StarTech.

However, everyone knew Julian and Susan loved each other to the core, so why would they get a divorce?

After they delved deeper into the matter, the truth was revealed. It was because Madam Shaw was not satisfied with Susan being her daughter-in-law and had forced Julian to divorce Susan.

A lot of people laughed inwardly when they heard the news. As the daughter of the Wrights, Susan was the most perfect wife for every man in the world. Money was not the only standard in this world, and they all thought Madam Shaw must have gone senile.

As they laughed at Madam Shaw inwardly, people who bore hidden agendas began to visit the Wrights.

After all, Susan had a formal marshal as a father and a former diplomat as a mother. One of her brothers was a general, while another was the main developer of the SL system. If they could marry Susan, they would have all these connections themselves. They would obtain both wealth and power and could work at least a few years less to attain success.

“Susie, a couple of men want to see you today. Are you not going to meet them?" Luna looked at Susan, a cheerful smile tugging at the corner of her lips.

Susan was not in high spirits. She looked eagerly at Luna and said, "Mom, Julian..."

"Let's not talk about Julian anymore. He is i n the past. Susie, you have to move forward."

"I know, but StarTech... Mom, can you ask those people not to terminate their contracts?" Susan was anxious.

She could not get through to Jacob or Seth. Thus, she could only seek Luna's help.

What are you talking about? I didn't ask them to terminate their contract, so how a m I supposed to help you?" Luna asked in confusion.

"Mom..."

Susan wanted to say something else, but Luna chimed in, "You don't have to worry about Julian, Susie. Even without StarTech, he will still be fine. You'd better start considering who you should be meeting later."
