Who's Crying Now, Ex-Husband? novel Chapter 53

N Laugh.

In the opulent and spacious second-floor suite of the exclusive club, a dozen or so young men and women in tailored suits and elegant attire lounged comfortably.

At the heart of this group, Lysander and Giselle sat close together.

These young elites were childhood friends of both Lysander and Giselle, having grown up together, forging strong bonds over the years. Naturally, their conversations were relaxed and informal.

"Lysander, how's your new tech subsidiary, Falcon Technologies, going? Have you put together your tech team yet?" asked a strikingly handsome man sitting next to Lysander, swirling his drink thoughtfully.

His question drew the attention of everyone in the room. Montgomery Holdings, a leading industrial conglomerate, was not only a powerhouse in Kingsford but also a global leader in heavy industry. Its influence stretched worldwide.

The announcement that this venerable group was branching into the uncharted territory of AI technology had piqued the curiosity of markets and media alike. Their close-knit circle, aware of some inside information about the Montgomery family, was even more intrigued.

It was well-known among them that Lysander had been a computer prodigy. Unfortunately, the elders of Montgomery Holdings had disapproved of his obsession with computers, fearing it would distract him from his duties to the family business. They had pressured him to abandon his computer studies in favor of a degree in finance and economics during college. Back then, Lysander had shown remarkable resolve.

He refused to give up on either front, ultimately earning a Ph.D. in computer science while simultaneously completing his doctorate in finance and economics. He had even achieved some notable research breakthroughs.

Yet, despite his achievements, the family elders remained unmoved.

Seven years ago, he lacked the power to resist, forced into marriage and the leadership of the family empire.

Now, seven years later, he had seized control with decisive force, securing over half the board's support and compelling his father to step down. He was determined to reclaim his passion for computers.

Their circle of friends knew him well.

Lysander was legendary in their ranks, known for his ruthless strategies and determined pursuit of goals, whether dealing with others or himself.
