My Substitute CEO Bride

Chapter 1014

Lucas looked awkwardly at Nash.

“You go do your thing. I just came to see if the Business Department can function without Justin,” Nash replied nonchalantly.

20 minutes ago, he received a call from Hera. Clarke from Innovate Collective was boasting at a smart technology exhibition that he would be signing a contract with Universal Group in the afternoon.

He even openly ridiculed Lauren and Harrison. Nash could not tolerate this, so he came to the Business Department to intervene. He intended to disrupt the cooperation between Universal Group and

Innovate Collective.

Dressed in a suit, Clarke walked into the office. When he saw Nash, a smile appeared on his face. “Oh, why if it isn’t Hera’s husband? What’s this? You think you can handle it when Hera can’t?”

He thought Nash was here to help Hera with the business negotiation. Unfortunately, Universal Group had already agreed to cooperate with Innovate Collective and decided to sign the contract in

the afternoon.

Lucas looked at Nash awkwardly. “Mr. Calcraft, do you two know

each other?”

Nash shook his head. “I’m not interested in knowing someone like

him.”

Clarke’s eyes turned cold. “Who are you calling ‘someone like him”?”

Nash grinned. “Sorry, I misspoke!”

Clarke was taken aback. Nash’s sudden apology caught him off

guard since he had cussed him out back then. However, Nash’s next

words filled him with anger.

“You’re just a kept man!”

“You! Aren’t you also a kept man? Would you be able to afford to wear such nice suits if not Hera?” Clarke blurted out, his face flushing.

“Clarke, please show some respect to Mr. Calcraft!” Lucas’ expression

turned serious.

Clarke snorted coldly. “Out of respect for you, Mr. Welsh, I won’t argue

with you today!”

Then, he turned to Lucas with a flattering smile. “Mr. Welsh, the

contract is ready. We can start the signing now!”

Lucas replied calmly, “I’ve changed my mind. I’ve decided to sign with

Baroque.”

The smile on Clarke’s face froze instantly. “Mr. Welsh, please don’t

joke around. My heart can’t take it!”

“Do I look like I’m joking to you?” Lucas said indifferently.

“But… But… Didn’t we already agree on everything?” Clarke’s lips

trembled. If he failed to secure this project, the president would

definitely be disappointed in him. Where would he get the money to

maintain his Ferrari?

“Until the contract is signed, I can change my mind however I want!”

When he saw the screensaver on Nash’s phone just now, he already knew Nash’s intention for coming. Even that seemingly casual alarm had been set up by Nash in advance. Nash wanted to let Lucas know that the president of Baroque was in a relationship with him.

If Lucas could not handle even this, then he might as well give up his

position.

“Mr. Welsh, you-”

“Leave!”

“Universal Group is going back on their word. Aren’t you afraid of damaging your reputation?” Clarke said angrily.

Lucas slapped Clarke across the face. “I’ve been civil enough with

you, haven’t I? How dare you go against Universal Group?”

Clarke held his face and glared at Nash resentfully as if blaming Nash

for it.

Lucas slapped Clarke again.

Clarke exclaimed in anger, “Why did you hit me again?”

He felt so wronged. He got hit when he spoke and got hit when he was silent. Even though Lucas was a high-ranking employee of Universal Group, that did not mean Lucas could just simply smack

him!

“This is Mr. Calcraft, our director. How dare you glare at him?” Lucas

said calmly.

Director? When did Nash become the director of Universal Group?

Clarke’s eyes widened in disbelief.
