The Gorgeous Substitute Wife of Mr. President
Chapter 163

That was true.

The reason why Lucas helped John was that they had reached an agreement.

The Hawk Group contributed the money to help the Davis Group survive the crisis, while the Davis Group transferred their projects to the Hawk Group. John was forced to sign the unequal treaty and returned to the company angrily.

"Damn it, Lucas."

He kicked the table angrily, and looked very grim.

In his opinion, the behaviors of Lucas was even worse than those of bandits. He just took advantage of the crisis of his company to rob them.

But he also had no way to refuse. If there is no funds of the Hawk Group, the company would only have a dead end.

He gritted his teeth and bore grudges.

Next time don't let him seize the opportunity, or he would certainly make Lucas pay a price!

Just as he thought, the assistant knocked at the door and came in.

"Chairman, the Hawk Group sent someone over to make the handover."

Hearing this, his anger rose again.

He didn't realize that he had just returned but the Hawk Group sent someone over.

Were they in such a hurry for fear that he would repudiate a debt?

He thought angrily and snapped, "Just tell them that I'm not here and let them hand over with the relevant departments." Looking at his angry look, the assistant dared not say anything more. Nodding, he was about to turn around and leave.

Just as he was about to open the door, John seemed to think of something and stopped him.

"Wait a minute."

"What else does you want to order?"

The assistant listened and turned around to ask.

"Now you contact the project department and let them pick out all the valueless and expensive projects and give them to the Hawk Group." John hummed softly.

Didn't they think he being threatening by them couldn't retaliate them?

The assistant was stunned and understood what he meant.

"I see."

He nodded in response, and John waved him away.

Half a day later, the handover was completed, and the representatives of the Hawk Group returned to the company with the information.

They sorted out the information and handed it to Cater, who then submitted it to Lucas for reporting. "President, I don't expect that the Davis Group looks very terrible but still has many valuable projects."

Cater came in happily with the information about the projects in his hand.

"What do you say?"

Hearing what he said, Lucas stopped his work to raise his eyebrows and asked him.

Seeing this, Cater handed over the information to him and explained, "Most of the projects given by the Davis group are small projects with little profit, but one of them, I think, although the investment in the early stage is relatively large, but after research and development, the profit is very large."

Lucas listened to his words and checked the information in his hand with suspicion.

As Cater had said, most of them were small projects with little profit, which he just had a look and put down.

When he turned to the R&D project praised by Cater, he stopped and looked at it with interest.

This project was about the mobile phone chip. If it was successfully developed and loaded into mobile phones, it could improve the functions that existing mobile phones in the market did not have. It could be said that the function was very advanced and close to the new technology. "This project is really good."

Lucas really had a vision that he even consider the more long-term profits than Cater.

Once the project succeeded, it was not only for them to make a profit, but also for them to develop a series of products if they continued to research and develop.

And with this technology coming out, they would also reform the whole mobile age, and the company would even make great progress.

Thinking that, he was delighted but also doubtful.

Generally speaking, it was impossible for John to give up such a good project.

After all... He glanced at the unprofitable projects on the table, and suddenly realized.

It might be that that cunning man didn't discover the value of the project at all but regarded it as a burden and threw it to him as the garbage along with those worthless projects. Once thinking this, he could not help laughing, which made Cater puzzled.

"President, what's wrong?"

Lucas looked at him and said, "It's all right. I just think that

this time John was ruined by his own wisdom. He wants to exchange our money for those worthless projects. But he doesn't expect that he has give us the most valuable one."

As he said, he put down the materials about the projects, and ordered, "You are responsible for this project. Considering that it is an important research and development project, you should do a good job of confidentiality agreements." "Yes!"

Cater nodded and responded. And then Lucas assigned his another more tasks and let him leave.

Looking at his figure, Lucas squinted, and raised the corner of his lips, as if he was in a good mood at the moment.

But Evelyn didn't know that an idea she said at will unexpectedly made Lucas gain so much.

Seeing that the crisis of the Davis Group was dealt with, she devoted herself to working wholeheartedly and concentrated on drawing the designs.

Later, when Lucas returned, the servant from the main house came and invited them to have dinner in main house.

At this time, Evelyn remembered that today was the day for the family to have dinner together.

She simply dressed up, and after Lucas washed, they went to the main house.

In the dining room, Mr. Hawk and Mrs. Hawk were all seated.

Looking at Evelyn who was late, Vivian pouted her mouth with dissatisfaction.

However, due to Lucas' presence, she did not say anything.

Evelyn naturally perceived her dissatisfaction, but she did not care, just smiled and greeted the old man. "Grandpa."

After that, she glanced at Sophia and other people, and said with a faint smile, "Dad, Mom, Aunt-in-law."

Sophia pretended not to hear what she said, and Devin just nodded coldly.

The old master glanced at them, frowning slightly, and was a little dissatisfied.

Originally, he wanted to scold them, but thinking that today was a rare family gathering, he resisted his anger, ignored them and greeted Evelyn with a smile.

"Nora, come and sit down. Don't be so polite."

Evelyn bowed and followed Lucas to the table.

During the dinner, several men talked about matter of the company. Evelyn did not know whether it was because of the previous unpleasant matter that she did not talk with them.

Seeing this, the old man wanted to deliberately take care of Evelyn. Thinking about what happened to the Davis Group in the past two days, he said, "Nora, there have been a lot of things happening to the Davis Group in the past two days. Are you all right?" Hearing her words, Evelyn was stunned. But she knew immediately that the old man was concerned about her. She smiled and said, "It's all right now. Grandpa, you don't have to worry about it."

As soon as she finished her speaking, Mrs.Hawk sniffed.

"Don't think that I know nothing. If it's not Lucas who helped you secretly, the Davis family will have been over."

Evelyn pouted her lips. It was true that she could not deny that she really should appreciate Lucas.

But what Sophia said really made her unpleasant and uncomfortable.

Just as she was about to say something, Lucas opened his mouth.

"Mom, don't look down upon your daughter-in-law. If it weren't for her advice this time, our company would miss a good project."

Finishing his speaking, he looked at Evelyn with a smile, and then talked about the matter about the research and development of the chip.
