Chapter 159 With him, Mae has no desire
“What about giving gifts? If coercion is not enough, then lure her. Give gifts, money, cars and houses. You can give what she wants. I don’t believe you can’t impress her.
Mark’s eyes were slightly cold, and the darkness in the bottom of his eyes was getting darker.
Yes, people all have desires, and Mae must have them too. However, her desires do not involve him.
He once thought that she wanted money. As long as he gave her enough money, they would be able to live happily ever after.
At least, with him, Mae had no desire.
Maybe it was him that she once wanted, but the person who snuff out her desire was also him.
If he hadn’t assumed that Mae would spend the rest of his life with him, and if he had given her even 1% of his thoughts with regard to Smith’s, it would have been fine. Maybe they would be happy now. Looking at that one percent, she wouldn’t probably reject him so neatly.
At this time, Mark had never thought that one day he would be humble enough to start reflecting on himself.
Robb saw that his state was indeed very bad so he did not tease him too much. He hesitated for a moment, and then said:
“Haven’t you thought about telling her the truth about letting her abort the child?”
Mark frowned. On this point, he had always refused without hesitation. “No need.”
Robb was speechless. He felt that Mark was unreasonably stubborn on this point.
“Why don’t you think about it? The real reason why Mae gave up on you wasn’t because of how you ignored her back then, nor did she misunderstand your relationship with other women, rather it was the child. That child was the reason to her giving up on you?”
Robb wanted to get angry, but every time he mentioned this, Mark was reluctant to explain it to Mae
Mark’s expression darkened. His hand on the armrest of the sofa was trembling slightly.
“Is there a cigarette?”
He spoke in a hoarse voice, and Robb pointed at the coffee table with his chin.
Mark sat up straight and took the cigarette from the coffee table to his mouth.
The end of his eyes was red, and even Robb, who had wanted to see his jokes, suddenly felt like he was gone.
He reached out and snatched the lighter from Mark’s hand to help him light it. He looked at him helplessly and said,
“Since you don’t want to make it clear to her, and you’re reluctant to be separated to her, what are you going to do?”
“I don’t know.”
With a hoarse voice, he replied in a low voice. He took a deep breath and smoked out most of the cigarette.

Chapter 759 With him. Mae has no desire
That child was something he never wanted to mention. He didn’t mention it himself, much less would mention it to Mae. Since everything had happened, he had also made that decision. Now, he would reveal the truth and hurt Mae again. Mark thought it would be too shameless of him to try washing himself from his sin.
He got up from the sofa and walked out.
“Are we done here?”
Robb asked from behind him, but Mark did not reply.
Soon, the sound of the engine starting could be heard from outside the house, and then it gradually. disappeared in front of his house.
Since returning from the charity dinner that day, Mae had deliberately avoided thinking about that night. Mark’s explanation to her and the diamond necklace he gave her, she did not even think that he still remembered what happened four years ago. Including the seemingly random promise he had given her earlier.
“The Lee Group’s annual report has been announced, we can take action now.”
Moore handed the computer to Mae and spoke.
Mae raised her eyes and looked at the computer. Sure enough, as soon as this perfect annual report came out, Mae’s stock price rose a lot compared to the year before.
“It looks like the Lee family’s idiots spent a lot of money on this accountant.”
She laughed, “We can report to the Securities Regulatory Commission.”
“Don’t worry, leave it to me.”
Moore patted his chest and assured.
In the afternoon of the same day, a report material was sent to the CSRC’s report mailbox.
Early the next morning, the news that the Lee Group’s financial annual report was fraudulent was trending.
The Lee Group’s emergency public relations campaign was to no avail.
The Lee family’s father and son were so anxious that their faces turned pale, and the shareholders of the board of directors pointed at their noses and scolded them.
“What’s going on? How did the people from the Securities Regulatory Commission find out that the financial report was so perfect?”
It stands to reason that even if the CSRC really doubted the annual report, it would not have obtained enough evidence to punish them within half a day of the annual report.
Unless they stupidly sent the real financial report to the Securities Regulatory Commission, how could the Securities Regulatory Commission take actions in such speed.
“Dad, could it be someone is secretly trying to expose with us?”
Jackson Lee frowned and said worriedly. Although he could not say the specifics, he felt that in the past six months, the Lee Corporation had been unlucky, and he would lose money on everything he invested.

Chapter 759 With him, Mae has no desire
Although Lee’s situation before was not very optimistic, it was incomparable to the loss they accumulated in the past six months.
Old Lee’s face sank, and his brows frowned. In fact, he had felt this way for the past few days.
“But…well, who’s going against us for no reason?”
Although the Lee Group was incomparable to the top giants, it was not the kind of company that could be targeted by anyone.
In other words, if someone was secretly targeting them, it could only be those big financial groups.
However, they had never offended them. If they could really rely on their great wealth to deal with small companies, then they wouldn’t be afraid of being troubled by such little devils?
It was precisely because of this that Chairman Lee had never spoken out about this suspicion, but now, he had no choice but to doubt it.
“Could it be…”
Jackson Lee suddenly thought of something, his pupils suddenly shrank, “Is it Mark Smith’s doing?”
“Mark Smith?”
Chairman Lee frowned. His expression was a little deep, but he felt that reasoning was incredible.
“What did he do to us?”
He could understand that Mark has no intention of helping the Lee family. After all, Mark Smith was a cold–hearted, ruthless and venal person. He had always looked down on the Lee family.
Jackson Lee remembered what Seraphina had said to him after the charity dinner that day causing his face changed slightly.
“Could he be venting his anger on Mae Lee’s behalf?”
Jackson frowned and muttered to himself. The Chairman looked at him, “In behalf of Mae Lee? Didn’t he divorce her already?”
Jackson did not stretch out things. Once he guessed this possibility, many things made sense.
