After Cillian left, Lucy sat back down to eat while mumbling, "Cillian's professor is so evil for giving him so much work that he doesn't even have tfor a meal." Matthew chuckled as he looked at Lucy, thankful that his wife was rather clueless. Otherwise, he might not have been able to win her over.
"Perhaps it's because Cillian is such an outstanding student. Professors tend to favor students who share similar traits as them," Matthew tried to cover up for Cillian.
Lucy cto a realization. "I see. Let's quickly finish up too. I still have a lot of work to do at the company." Matthew looked at her disapprovingly. "Even if you have a lot of work, there's no need to be in such a hurry. Can't you hang out withfor a bit before going to work? You'll be busy tomorrow too." "I guess you're right." She was about to agree when her phone rang all of a sudden.

"Ms. Lucy, I have bad news!" Mabel's anxious voice sounded on the other end of the phone.
Lucy turned serious all of a sudden. "What happened? Calm down and tellslowly." "Ms. Lucy, the investor who agreed to invest in our comic is pulling out all of a sudden. He said he no longer wants to cto the company to discuss the comic with you." Lucy frowned and stood up from the table. She irritably bit her finger and asked in a deep voice, "What happened? Have you found out why?" Mabel hesitated for a bit, but she still told Lucy the truth, "I heard that your sister's company intercepted the investment." Lucy was even more irritated. "That's impossible. The quality of our comics is way better than hers. We've even increased our funds and manpower recently. How could they have intercepted it?" Lucy could not understand what was going on, but she had to keep a steady head.
She said to Mabel, "Maple, do you have the investor's contact number? Give it toand I'll talk to them in person." Mabel was rather timid, so she was flustered at first. However, after hearing that Lucy would handle the situation, she was relieved and quickly gave her the investor's contact number.
Lucy wrote down the phone number and hung up her call with Mabel.
She looked at Matthew. "Matthew, I think I have to go to the company now." Matthew had heard the conversation and realized that her company had encountered a situation, so he nodded. Something did not seem right!
Matthew decided that after he returned to his company, he would have his assistant investigate what exactly happened. Both of them left the whole table of food in a hurry and got into the car. Matthew immediately drove toward Lucy's company. After arriving, Lucy rushed to her office.
