My Sleeping Beauty Husband by Lyanna Nichols

Chapter 75 Drive Slowly

Ivan said with a satisfied smile, “Then what are you waiting for? As long as you persuade the Smith

Group’s

business partners and even the shareholders to cut the cooperation off when Alston is unprepared, you

can…”

As soon as Clare thought of that scene Ivan described, he felt a burst of joy.

“At that time, with your ability, you will create a better Smith Group and utterly defeat Alston. Then what

he can do only is to look up to us.”

Clare was convinced wholly by Ivan’s words, and all previous worries and doubts disappeared, then he

nodded determinedly.

“Okay, I’ll do as you said!”

“Dad, I guess I can get out of here early when you succeed.”

The two were talking happily, but they didn’t notice that a red spot was on the reception room’s ceiling.

After seeing Clare, Ivan put on the hand and foot cuffs again, and under the correctional officers‘

control, he

went back into the cell.

The inmate in the same cell saw him returning and whistled at him. The man said sarcastically, “Hey,

sir,

have your father left? I heard that your family is powerful, then why can’t they get you out?”

Ivan didn’t cast any attention on him but just rolled his eyelids. To Ivan, this man was a fool without a

future

and didn’t deserve any of his glances.

“Ivan, you’re back.” A thin, small man came over and stuffed a piece of bread into his hand. “I hid a

piece of

bread, and you can eat it. I saw you were so hungry that you kept pinching yourself last night. Tell me if

you

are hungry, and I will help you.”

Ivan held the bread, and his face darkened.

Indeed, Alston didn’t order anyone to bully him. When he heard that his father had returned last night,

he

deliberately inflicted injuries to stimulate his father.

If it weren’t for these injuries, his father, a man of caution, would not make up his mind to leave the

Smith Group.

Ivan’s fingers were slightly hard, crushing that bread into pieces. He would never let go of Alston and

Cynthia

when he came out.

In Alston’s office, the three of them had heard everything Clare and Ivan had said.

There was no one on the screen. Lloyd tapped the screen, and it returned to the home screen as if

nothing had happened just now.

“What the… They’re plotting.” A shocked look was still left in Lucien’s eyes, and he looked at Alston in

disbelief after he took a long while to react.

Instead of being angry, Alston smiled, but his smile was cold. “Great courage.”

“Alston, it is not the time to play jokes now.” Lucien didn’t smile as usual. “According to what Ivan said,

your Uncle Clare must have hidden his strength. How do you stand up to him? You have to think of a

countermeasure quickly.”

Alston’s leisured posture made a strong contrast with Lucien’s anxious look as if Alston didn’t take

Clare and

Ivan seriously at all.

Seeing Lucien’s anxious look, Lloyd said, “Mr. Williams, don’t worry. Mr. Smith already has the plan to

deal

with them.”

“What?”

Lucien paused, heaved a sigh of relief, and then sat back on the sofa again. “Well, I was shocked. I

didn’t

expect you to be already prepared. Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

Alston knocked on the table. “The Wright family in Coast City will send someone over in a few days. If

we can

reach cooperation with them, Clare will not be a threat.”

“The Wright family in Coast City?” Lucien asked curiously, “They are an established family in Coast

City. Why

do they want to come to find a partner in Fort?”

“I heard the Wright family wants to move to Fort in two years and gain a foothold here. Their project this

time

is used to open the way.” Alston released the explosive news in a calm voice.

“We can’t underestimate the Wright family’s strength. It will take a short time for them to gain a firm

foothold

in Fort. It will be good for us if we cooperate with them and have a good relationship.”

After Alston finished speaking, Lucien hadn’t reacted instantly and made up his mind after a long time,

saying, “Anyway, the Williams family is your follower. We will unconditionally support the decision you

make.”

Hearing Lucien’s words, Alston softened the look in his eyes.

To Alston, from the beginning of his acquaintance with Lucien, Lucien had always followed behind him

and

unconditionally supported him. What’s more, Lucien now led the Williams family to face challenges and

success with him. He would never forget Lucien’s kindness and make his family and him disappointed.

Suddenly, a sharp ring of Lucien’s cell phone broke the silence in the office. When he saw the caller ID

on the screen, his handsome face couldn’t help but twitch as if extremely painful.

Alston took a glance. “Pick it up!”

“Alston, I don’t want to answer it,” said Lucien. But the phone kept ringing as if it would ring until the

end of the world if Lucien didn’t answer it.

He reluctantly picked up the phone. But as soon as the phone was answered, he quickly held it away

from his ear.

As he expected, a sharp female voice suddenly came from the other end of the phone. “Lucien, I didn’t

expect you to avoid me. Don’t you really want to see me? Do you know I have been waiting for you at

your home for almost a morning?”
