Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister

Chapter 199 Sean Kirkland Is Doomed

Isaac wheeled Horace before the big screen. Horace picked up the infrared pen, turned around and

circled some of the paragraphs.

"This... this... and this..."

"They may sound perfect, and are supposed to drag down the competitors and uplift ourselves."

"But, I don't know whether it's because they were drawn hastily or made out of emergency, it doesn't

take counter measures into account. It's just a temporary response to the competitor."

"The way I see it, the proposal is more of an idealized house-playing game than a emergency

temporary resolution."

"If Mr. Kirkland's proposals are always like this, I don't see the point you keeping this company."

Despite Horace's aggression, Sean had to swallow his anger.

But Horace wouldn't seem to let him off that easily.

"Oh, no," Horace said with a half-smile. His following words almost destroyed Sean's last bit of mental

defense, "If I remember it right, the company itself does seem to be heading for a shut-down lately."

"You..."

Without any hesitation or worries, Horace continued to say, "Mr. Kirkland, your company profits and

share price have both been plummeting, and even worse, some of the subsidiaries have been

devalued to a point where it'll be a gimme for me to take over." Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

After hearing his speech, those who meant to argue with him lapsed into dead silence.

Indeed, every single word he had said was true and beyond question.

If only Horace had been as easy to manipulate as Sean...

The board were lamenting inside...

In that case, their company would have gone to a higher level with Horace's shrewdness and

prudence.

It's such a shame that he represented Solrace, which meant that he could only be a rival.

When Horace was leaving, they were all so intimidated by the commanding man that no one dared to

say another word.

And that was bound to be a delight for some and misery for the others.

Sean returned to his office when the meeting was over.

It added to his fury when he saw the large pile of files on the desk pending his signature.

He threw his arm around, with the files and the mugs fallen all over the floor, and the secretary outside

the door was terrified.

Later, Ashlee came for a visit.

She was homeless after she had been set free, so she was staying at Darren's.

She had heard that Horace had been to Sean's company, and she was so worried that she came over.

"What are you doing here!" Sean said furiously.

"I'm here to see how is everything going."

"Going? Everything is running down to hell!" Sean lost it and yelled, "It's all because of your stupid

plan! It's all because of what you have done, he was able to barge in a board meeting!"

"If not for the baby, how on earth would have given over the shares to save you?"

"You stupid woman, you just can't so anything right! How dare you come here to see me?"

With the words got harsher, so did her hatred against Clara.

All of a sudden, she came up with a new scheme.

"Relax," said Ashlee, trying to soothe his feelings, "I've got a new idea, which will definitely give a

heavy blow to Horace and Clara. Listen to me..."

She got close to his ear and whispered the new idea to him.

With his look mellowing, Sean agreed with reluctance, saying, "Fine, I will believe you for the very last

time. Don't you screw up again."

Meanwhile, Horace had come to his new office in Kirkland Group, well-equipped, as if he would stay

here for a long time.

Alastair came over and lay back on the sofa, looking at Horace who was seated on a chair.

"Hey, aren't you afraid that Sean's gonna pay you back for what you have done today?"

"How long do you think I've been hiding myself?" Horace questioned him back with a suddenly serious

face.

Alastair thought for a while and said, "Almost yen years."

"Yeah, almost ten years," Horace sighed, "It's time to come back."

The words gave Alastair a creepy feeling inside.

Looking at Horace's face, he quietly thought that Sean was going to be a dead man.

...

Meanwhile, after all the time resting at home, Clara felt physically and mentally ready for work.

She told Horace that and canceled the rest of the leave with Darren.

The next morning, Isaac was asked by Horace to walk Clara to the front door of her company before he

left, and then Clara took the lift upstairs alone.

"Morning, Clara, how are feeling?" asked the receptionist, who was surprised to see her.

"I'm feeling much better now. I think I'm better off sitting at the office, so I'm back."

Clara answered smilingly, and swiped in.

"Clara!" Sarah spotted Clara right away and exclaimed.

Everybody's attention was drawn by her away from their computer and work to the door.

"Hi, everyone, I'm back." Clara felt like a money watched by people in a zoom, with all those eyes on

her. She looked rather abashed.

After that glance at her, people soon focused back on their work r.

Except the sarcastic Diane

"Oh, Mrs. Kirkland is coming back to work. How degrading for you to work for our small company. Why

don't you stay at home and be a housewife?"

"At least I love my job, and I want to be back to my job," retorted Clara bluntly.

"That's compelling. I almost believe you! Why don't you get the interview for us?" said Diane

provokingly.

She believed that the new interview would be assigned to nobody but her.

Clara then began to realize how unusually hard people had been working.

But what kept them so busy? There had been no big news recently and it should be an off season for

interviews.

Clara turned around and asked Sarah as she was thinking.

"What have you been up to?

As if she had been wound up, Sarah suddenly began to go on and on keeping her up with the situation.

"Well, well, it's just the perfect time for you to come back. Do you know Elaine? That very famous

designer. She has just come back to the country."

Clara had focused her time and energy on messing with Ashlee, so she hadn't noticed any of that at all!

Clara tried to search the memory in her head, but then she said with frustration, "Sorry, I haven't had

time to keep up with the news, so, I had no idea who you are talking about."

"No, that's OK, don't worry about it," Sarah said with a surge of excitement, "I'm telling you, Clara, this

Elaine is amazing."
