Paxton Clark noticed the gleam in the Kaur family members’ eyes, a smile lifting the corners of his mouth as he looked toward Madeline Kaur.
“If you don’t want to work for the Clark family’s enterprise, I can introduce you to other companies.”
“The several family heads who came with me just now, I believe you must have heard of them.”
He rattled off more than a dozen company owners, each a renowned entrepreneur in Slatin.
“They would do this as a favor to me.”
Madeline Kaur was stunned.
These people were on the same level as Pelens’ richest man, Bobby Sheppard, and in Slatin, their status was even slightly higher than Bobby Sheppard’s.
They were famous far and wide and had hundreds of millions!
Their connections were deep!
She had heard these names even in Niarak.
If she could be a vice president at one of these companies, she would absolutely bring glory to her family and become famous throughout Niarak!
Even Orion Kennedy would have to show her respect!
She could stand as an equal with Bobby Sheppard!
With the Clark family’s backing, who would dare not show respect?
Exciting!
So exciting!
“Hmm? Mr. Clark, you just mentioned the president of DreamDollars Investments, Ryland Ambrose. Is his son named Wayne Ambrose?” Madeline Kaur quickly asked.
Paxton Clark was momentarily confused and then nodded with a smile. “Yes, do you know him?”
“He was my college friend…” Madeline Kaur fell silent, a hint of inferiority flashing in her eyes.
Wayne Ambrose was handsome, from an extremely wealthy family, and drove a supercar worth over ten million to school.
Beautiful women from rich families surrounded him every day.
He had his own circle, and even though Madeline Kaur was very beautiful, he wouldn’t give her a second glance.
“Your college friend? That’s even better. If you’re willing to go to Slatin, I can have him come pick you up.”
Paxton Clark smiled as if saying something very simple.
“Really? Is that possible?” Madeline Kaur felt like she was in a dream, unable to believe her ears.
Having a rich heir from a prominent family come to pick her up was something she wouldn’t dare dream of in her lifetime!
Vicente Clark calmly said, “Everyone in Slatin must respect the Clark family. What’s so difficult about this?”
What a country bumpkin.
Talking to a stupid woman like her was such a waste of time!
Madeline Kaur looked expectant and was about to agree when Matteo Kaur directly refused.
“I appreciate the Clark family’s kindness, but Madeline doesn’t have that ability. It’s better to let her develop in Niarak.”
The Kaur family members flared up.
“Matteo, how do you know whether Madeline has the ability without letting her try? You’re her father, don’t you believe in your own daughter?”
“Mr. Clark shows such sincerity. How can you bear to refuse? If not for yourself, think about the Kaur family!”
“Matteo, we may have had unpleasantness with the Clark family, but that’s all in the past. Why are you being so stubborn?”
The Kaur family members berated Matteo Kaur, their eyes red with anger.
Who wouldn’t want to ride the Clark family’s coattails?
Some wealthy families couldn’t find opportunities to curry favor even if they wanted to!
Now the Kaur family’s development had stagnated, desperately needing a breakthrough, and the Clark family had extended an olive branch. It was a great opportunity!
Yet, Matteo Kaur refused. Had he lost his mind?
Something was wrong with him!
Hearing her father speak about her this way, Madeline Kaur almost burst into tears, saying angrily, “Dad, am I really such a failure in your eyes?”
“I admit I’ve made some wrong decisions in the past, but you can’t ignore my efforts!”
“I have the ability. I just lack connections and a little bit of luck!”
“Given a bigger platform, I’m no worse than anyone else!”
She blamed the failures on internal problems within the company-family members pocketing profits and interfering with decision-making, which ultimately hindered the Kaur’s Group’s development.
If the company had sufficient funds, they wouldn’t be in this situation today.
It was not her fault!
She bore no responsibility whatsoever!
In summary, she lacked authority in the company, but if she went to a major group for experience, she would definitely be able to lead the Kaur family to new heights!
Matteo Kaur felt his previous words had been somewhat harsh. After all, she was his daughter and needed encouragement, so he said apologetically,
“Madeline, that’s not what I mean. I know you’ve worked hard these past few years, but we can’t accept favors from the Clark family!”
“From Flynn’s attitude today, it’s clear he doesn’t want reconciliation!”
“Doesn’t want reconciliation?” Paulina Johnston laughed with disdain, “If he doesn’t want reconciliation, why would he give you the medical book?”
The medical book?!
Paxton Clark and his son immediately looked at Matteo Kaur, their eyes flashing.
“What medical book?! What nonsense are you talking about?” Matteo Kaur’s face changed dramatically as he angrily shouted.
Paulina Johnston showed unprecedented assertiveness. “Enough, Matteo. I can listen to you on other matters, but when it concerns our daughter’s future, I can’t let you decide alone!”
“We all heard you on the phone with Flynn yesterday. He said he would come over today to give you the medical book.”
Matteo Kaur’s mind went blank momentarily.
He remembered now.
Yesterday, to confirm Frederick Powell’s death, he called Flynn.
Flynn indeed mentioned on the phone that he would come today to deliver the medical book!
The Kaur family members had been standing around him and listening intently!
“How dare you bring this up, I…” Matteo Kaur pointed at his wife angrily, but Paulina Johnston remained unfazed.
“Why can’t I bring this up?”
“Think about what Flynn meant. Isn’t he just too proud, wanting you to be the intermediary?”
She believed it was just Flynn’s pride was acting up.
He wanted to return to the Clark family or wanted the Clark family to leave him alone, but he couldn’t bring himself to ask directly.
He was putting on an act of irreconcilable hostility, showing the world that he wasn’t a man who bowed easily.
He thought as long as Matteo Kaur negotiated with Paxton Clark on his behalf, the Clarks would plan to bring him back to the Clark family by acknowledging him as part of them at a banquet or signing a contract promising to leave him alone, and so on. Then he could return to the Clark family with dignity, or live freely.
This way, he would both maintain his reputation and gain significant benefits. Wasn’t that perfect?
“Is that so?” Matteo Kaur was half convinced, taking out his phone. “I’ll call Flynn and ask.”
“Call him?” Paulina Johnston smirked coldly, “Wouldn’t that be slapping his face? Besides, the situation is so clear, why bother asking?”
“All his efforts helping Rose Sharp were just to prove to the Clark family that he’s not worthless!”
Vicente Clark couldn’t wait any longer. He stood up and said to Paulina Johnston, “Where is the medical book now?”
“Hand it over, and I promise the Kaur family will have a life of wealth and prosperity. Also, my commitment to Madeline Kaur still stands!”
Without waiting for Matteo Kaur to speak, Paulina Johnston excitedly replied, “It’s in the safe in the study, but it needs a password. Matteo…”
“Password? Do I need it?” Vicente Clark smiled coldly, pushing open the study door.
After finding the safe, he yanked the handle forcefully. The safe, which could withstand the impact of ten grenades, was easily pulled open!
“Haha! There really is a medical book!” Vicente Clark picked up the yellowed medical book with its sheepskin cover, his eyes full of excitement.
“Let me see it!” Paxton Clark followed him, his eyes filled with greed.
The head of Slatin’s top family looked just like a thief!
“That’s right! It’s Adrianna Noble’s handwriting! Haha-” Paxton Clark laughed uproariously, his hands trembling with excitement.
With this medical book, the Clark family would definitely be able to compete with the aristocratic families in Eahta within five years!
With this medical book, his son would become top five in the Dragon Ranking within three years and make a great achievement!
“Matteo, I’ll keep my word. Madeline Kaur can return with me to Slatin.”
“I can also guarantee that as long as Flynn doesn’t defy the Clark family again, the Clark family won’t give him a hard time!”
“But if that brat wants to return to the Clark family, that is absolutely impossible. Tell him to give up on that idea!”
