Chapter 176 As soon as Clark returned to the company, several angered shareholders stormed into his office.
"Mr. Sumner, what's going on with Prospectus Technology? I just spoke with their manager, and he said they won't be continuing their partnership with the Sumner Group. You brokered this deal, so you need to take full responsibility!" If the Sumner Group lost the Prospectus Technology contract, it would cost them at least 100 million dollars. Coupled with the previous contract losses with Gen Pharma and the Rainford Group because of Nyla, the shareholders' dissatisfaction with Clark had reached its peak.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtClark looked up at them, noting their angry faces. He spoke calmly. "Please don't worry. I will find out what happened and give you an explanation. For now, return to your work." "No way. You need to call Damon in front of us, or we can't trust you!" Clark's gaze turned cold as he looked at Jason Dinsmore, a shareholder who held 3% of the company. Although Jason's shares were not significant, his grandfather had contributed greatly during the company's early days. As such, Jason considered himself a veteran, often speaking with a sense of entitlement. On a regular day, Clark might have tolerated this. But today, given his bad mood, Jason's timing couldn't have been worse. He was asking for trouble.
Clark sneered. "Mr. Dinsmore, if you're in such a hurry, why don't you make the call? You can even take my position as CEO if you'd like." Jason's face darkened with dissatisfaction. "Mr. Sumner, I don't have the capability to be the CEO. But if this issue isn't resolved, are you going to need Mr. Richard to step in and clean up your mess again?" Clark's expression grew colder, his eyes narrowing as he stared at Jason with a dangerous glint.
Oblivious, Jason continued sarcastically. "You're almost 30. When I was your age, I was already building this company with Mr. Richard. Yet, you still need him to bail you out. It's embarrassing!" Jason grew more agitated, not noticing the other shareholders signaling him to stop. When he finished, he realized the room had fallen eerily silent.
Jason faced Clark's icy gaze and involuntarily took a step back, feeling a twinge of guilt. He raised his voice, trying to mask his unease. "Mr. Sumner, why are you looking atlike that? Am I wrong?" Clark smirked. "No, Mr. Dinsmore. You're absolutely right." "Then call Damon right now," Jason pressed.
The other shareholders exchanged uneasy glances, hoping to avoid becoming collateral damage.
"Urn, Mr. Sumner... I have sdocuments to review. I'll head back now..." "Yeah, I need to meet a client soon. If I don't leave now, I'll be late..." As the other shareholders hurried out, Jason scoffed at their cowardice.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmClark's eyes remained fixed on Jason. "Mr. Dinsmore, if I recall correctly, your grandson works at the 1/2 Chapter 176 Sumner Group as well?" Jason's expression faltered. "Yes... Why?" +25 BONUS Clark smiled. "Oh, nothing much. I just remembered he made a mistake at work recently." by
His tone was casual as if discussing the weather, but the implication made Jason tremble, his eyes betraying his guilt.
"He's young. Mistakes happen... You were new once top, M Sumner! ver Jason tried to reason.
"Mr. Dinsmore, I've never made the mistake of embezzling company om funds. If the other skakeholders find out, your grandson could lose his ouit, you job-or worse, end up in prison. Don't you agree?" RULE #1 choose married women They have reason to keep things secret, as do you.
