Mr. Lewis was bewildered.
He hadn’t expected Clark’s fury to be so intense that it would be directed at him. With so many subordinates watching, how could he save face after such a slap? How could he maintain any authority? Yet, he didn’t dare say anything.
He didn’t dare direct his anger at Clark either. Instead, he transferred his rage to Charlotte, his face full of hatred.
Charlotte ignored him completely.
Clark scanned the surroundings coldly and said, “I heard that our Spicurity Group made big news today, causing quite a stir. I came personally to deal with it and clean out the culprit.”
Bella spoke up, “Mr. Wilson, the culprit is…”
“Shut up!”
Before Bella could finish, Clark angrily interrupted her, his gaze icy as he stared at her. “Is it your place to speak here? Get out!”
Bella’s face turned pale at his reprimand. She bit her lip and walked away, but her expression softened slightly at the thought that Charlotte would soon be dealt with.
“Mr. Garza, don’t mess this up,” Bella whispered. “Don’t forget our agreement.”
Hearing Bella’s words, Jaeden sneered, “Don’t worry, I won’t mess it up. You’ll be satisfied.”
“Good!” Bella sighed in relief at Jaeden’s assurance, her expression returning to normal.
Jaeden glanced at Bella. This foolish woman still didn’t realize the danger she was in.
Jaeden couldn’t afford to provoke Quentin; he feared for his life. But he wanted someone to go down with him!
Bella, the instigator who had caused him to lose everything, would suffer a fate a hundred times worse than his!
In less than a minute, the atmosphere grew tense and silent. At that moment, footsteps echoed from the hallway. A tall young man walked into the office with his hands behind his back.
Following him were a man and a woman. The woman looked valiant and sharp-eyed, while the man appeared timid and terrified, as if he had committed a grave mistake.
Who was this man? Everyone was puzzled. Why was he here?
Mr. Lewis raised an eyebrow. “Who are you? We’re discussing important company matters here. You can’t come in. Please leave.”
Quentin pushed him aside and strode into the room, his cold gaze sweeping across everyone.
“You-” Mr. Lewis was furious after being shoved. “You-”
He was about to step forward when he saw Clark quickly approaching the young man!
The directors followed closely behind Clark.
“Mr. Holland-!!”
As Clark led the bowing, respectful voices echoed throughout the office!
Mr. Lewis was stunned on the spot.
His anger was swallowed back down.
He realized that the man before him was someone he couldn’t afford to offend!
Jaeden had somewhat anticipated this but was still deeply shocked by the scene… Quentin’s power was even more terrifying than he had imagined!
Clark was one of the top tycoons in Stresall!
Yet here he was, bowing respectfully to Quentin! This showed how significant Quentin’s background was.
Bella was bewildered and curious about who this man was.
Such grandeur and presence indicated he was extraordinary. If only she could…
But the next moment, Quentin’s actions left them all dumbfounded!
Quentin quickly walked forward, his cold eyes softening as he approached Charlotte. He gently cupped her face. “Foolish girl, why did you endure so much before telling me?”
Charlotte’s tightly controlled emotions crumbled at that moment, tears welling up in her eyes. “I knew you would come.”
Bella’s heart skipped a beat, and she gasped when she saw Mekhi following Eileen.
Mr. Lewis broke into a cold sweat. This time, it seemed he had gotten himself into serious trouble!
