Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss! -
Chapter 1141 Is There Any Wrongdoing
Craig had this wild idea pop into his head. Was Tristan hinting that Micah was on his deathbed?
That thought hit him like a ton of bricks, and Craig went ghostly pale. He started looking around frantically, his heart pounding like crazy.
He thought, 'Looks like Tristan's still holding onto that grudge between the James and Clemens families. Bet he sent someone to mess with Micah. This is serious business. We gotta stay out of it.'
Craig clutched his chest and bolted upstairs to replace Joe.
Joe was in his room, all hyped up, calling his buddies to tell them he was getting hitched. His friends were stoked for him.
Clarence Russell, one of his pals and a shareholder in the Sunvale Sports Complex Project, laughed when he heard the news. "No wonder Mr. Clemens gathered us shareholders at Noble Summit Estate, and you were MIA. We thought you two had beef. Turns out you're just busy with wedding stuff, huh?"
"Micah gathered you guys? Did he mention me? What was it about?" Joe asked, feeling a knot in his stomach. Was Micah pissed and thinking about pulling out of the project because of Sadie?
If Micah bailed, the project would be toast. Where would he replace that kind of cash?
Clarence replied, "Yeah, it's about the project. You didn't know?"
"I've been in Country E, busy with wedding plans." Joe, though uneasy, still trusted Micah. "Just follow Micah's lead on the project. He's got more experience than me."
Clarence said, "Alright, I'm heading to the banquet. He knows about your wedding, right?"
Joe responded, "Not yet. I called you first."
Clarence chuckled, "You better tell him quick. Let's celebrate tonight."
Before hanging up, Joe said, "My wife's calling. Gotta go. Bye."
Joe held his phone, and the earlier joy was replaced by full-on worry. He had no clue how to break this to Micah or face him.
Even if he tried to dodge it, the project still had to move forward. What was he gonna do?
"Already stressing out?" Craig's voice startled Joe. He turned around, surprised. "Dad, when did you get here?"
"Been here a bit." Craig said, sitting on the sofa. The maid brought him coffee. He waved her off, and the maids left, closing the door.
Craig took a sip, looking serious. "The news isn't even out yet, and Micah's already gathering shareholders. Looks like he's planning to pull out, catching us off guard."
"That can't be right." Joe muttered, feeling uneasy. He had the same suspicion as Craig. He knew Micah wasn't someone to mess with.
He had taken Sadie and now even Noah. Micah must be fuming. It wouldn't be surprising if he did something.
"You know if he would or not," Craig said, annoyed. "Do you think Micah's a nice guy?"
"Even if he does, I get it." Joe lowered his head. "I wronged him first. If he wants to cut ties, I can't blame him."
Craig got mad and snapped, "They broke up ages ago. You didn't steal his wife. How did you wrong him? Relationships are mutual. You didn't force Sadie to marry you." "True, but," Joe still felt uneasy, muttering, "it's gonna be awkward when we meet."
