My Bossy CEO Husband

Chapter 280: Sell Him 

"Mom, what should we do now?" Brian asked.

Nellie wanted to ask the same question.

However, she remained silent as she, herself, did not know the answer to that.Silence descended over the room.Nobody said a word until a servant trotted into the room and announced, "Ma‘am, Mr.Bruce is back."

"Let him in," Nellie replied at once.

Her face slight lit up, and she looked somehow relieved.

At that moment, Jeffrey entered the room casually.He was wearing a printed T-shirt with a skull on it, a denim coat, and a pair of black Harem pants.He had dyed his hair green.He reeked of alcohol, and its smell grew stronger as he got closer.His face was pale and gaunt.

Nellie was shocked to see him like this.

Jeffrey had always been full of vitality regardless of what happened.His mood was buoyant all the time, that was, until now.

Nellie could not help but be concerned about her son.She quickly got to her feet and strode towards him.

"What's the matter? What happened to you?"

"I'm fine," Jeffrey replied while ruffling his hair.

The truth was, he was going through the pain of unrequited love.

He believed that it was not worth making a big deal out of it.

His love was over before it even started.

At the thought of this, Jeffrey felt more crestfallen than he was before.

"Why did you ask me to come here? I'm busy with work, and I have to shoot a commercial tomorrow.If there's nothing else, I have to leave now," he said, playing with his car keys.

Nellie scoffed, "Bruce! Do you have any idea what's going in the company? Your father has just finished his treatment abroad, and yet he has to clean up the company's mess.Look at you! What have you done to yourself? How could you drink and shoot commercials like nothing's happening to your own family? How much do you earn from a commercial? Do you have any idea how much the market value of our company drops every day?"

Jeffrey merely shrugged his shoulders.

"Does it have anything to do with me?" Nellie couldn't believe her ears.

Jeffrey sighed and replied, "Mom, I don’t know much about business.But I know that if anything goes wrong, you have to find a way to solve it.You need to give the public a reasonable explanation and find the person so that you can reach a settlement."

"Your father is dealing with the matter."

Jeffrey asked, "Then why on earth did you ask me to come back? Will the company's stock price stop plummeting just because I'm here? Will the loss lessen because of me?"
