Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss! -
Chapter 1314 Cunning
"Micah, I'm here to talk about the gym project," Craig finally got to the point. "I assume you've gone through the documents. The other shareholders are cool with it; we just need your signature." "The other shareholders are cool with it?" Micah raised an eyebrow. "They're waiting on me, aren't they?"
Micah knew the drill. Without his green light, the other shareholders wouldn't dare to say a word. When they said they had no objections, they really meant they'd follow his lead.
"Of course," Craig replied with a forced smile. "In the end, it's your call."
"Alright, guess I'll be the bad guy," Micah said, taking a sip of his coffee.
Craig didn't expect Micah to be so blunt. He was annoyed but kept his cool. "Micah, you're a big deal in the business world. Everything depends on you; no one questions you. There's no such thing as being the bad guy."
"How is there not? If I sign, I'll piss off Sadie," Micah said even more directly. "Others don't matter, but I can't afford to piss her off!"
Craig's brows furrowed in disbelief. "Didn't you break up with her ages ago? After everything she did to you, you still..." He paused, then softened his tone. "The Clemens and James families are at odds. Besides, you two are done. Why are you so scared of her? I don't get it."
"I can't help it," Micah shrugged. "Sadie is the mother of my kids. They listen to her. If she gets upset and throws a fit in front of them, I'll be in trouble." Craig was speechless. He knew Micah was making excuses, but they were so good he couldn't argue.
"So, coming to me won't fix it," Micah said, pushing the jewelry box toward him. "If you really want her out of this project, go talk to her yourself." "How can I...?" Craig hesitated.
"Suddenly, I remembered I have an appointment," Micah said, looking troubled. "Why don't we go together?"
"No need," Craig said, his face stern as he got up to leave.
"Hey! Duke Louis," Micah called out, pointing to the silver box. "Take this back. Joe's wife might replace it useful someday."
This remark made Craig even angrier. His face turned red as he stormed out. His subordinates looked at the box, unsure whether to take it or leave it. Andrew closed the box and handed it to one of Craig's attendants. He teased, "Take it; it's pretty valuable."
The two had no choice but to take it and hurriedly catch up with Craig.
"Should I see them off?" Andrew asked.
"Tell him that last time in Sunvale, I accidentally damaged a few of his cars. I can compensate him," Micah said leisurely, swirling his wine glass. Andrew smiled but had no choice but to comply. "Got it." Then he hurriedly chased after them.
Chloe came in to tidy up and said softly, "Mr. Clemens, I heard that Joe is also in Newark."
Micah was drinking and paused upon hearing this, his brows furrowing tightly. He thought, 'Joe, is he here to see Sadie?'
He had indeed overlooked this. Craig was so cunning; it seemed he couldn't handle it himself, and he wanted Joe to ask Sadie to back off.
