Chapter 760: Chapter 760: Invisible
“Hmph.” Jacob Clark still had a gloomy face, looking rather unhappy.
Ding—
The elevator door opened.
People from the Secretary Office were already waiting outside. As soon as he arrived, they hurriedly followed his pace and asked while walking, “President Clark, reporters from Dawning World called to schedule an interview with you. The bosses of Rowan Corporation, South Steel Group, Southgate Construction Company,… all want to make an appointnt with you as well. When I received the calls, I told them you haven’t arrived at the company yet. How should we handle these appointnts?”
Jacob Clark felt the veins on his forehead throbbing. All these companies had business dealings with the Clark Family, and so were even currently working on projects together.
Dawning World, which the secretary specifically ntioned, was a financial dia outlet backed by the governnt.
“If they call again, tell them I’m not here,” he said. Just as the words left his mouth, it seed like he suddenly rembered sothing, and the veins on his forehead bulged again, his expression turning even uglier. Stopping the secretary in charge of answering calls, he instructed, “Don’t say I’m not here, just say I’m busy in a eting right now and have no ti. Once I’m free, I’ll contact them.”
There must be spies from other companies within his own firm. If he really let the receptionist say he wasn’t at the company, his lie would be exposed in no ti. If soone showed up, he would be slapped in the face.
Jacob Clark had never been so passive before. Annoyed, he pushed open the door to the President’s office, turned on the computer, and checked the stock market prices.
anwhile, the secretary who had been told to contact Rhine’s representative returned, holding his mobile phone and hesitating, “President Clark…”
Seeing his expression, Jacob’s heart swelled with an inexplicable irritation, “Speak.”
“Rhine’s people said that their schedule for this week is fully booked, and they can’t make ti to et with you. They said you should make an appointnt in advance for next week…”
Before he could finish, Jacob Clark slamd his fist down, shattering the water cup on the table. His barely maintained composure crumbled completely. He suddenly stood up, his hands propped on the desk, gasping for breath! His expression was extrely terrifying, as if he wanted to eat soone alive! Dark and dreadful!
“Too much bullying!”
Wasn’t it too much?
First, the other party had secretly completed a stock transaction with small shareholders behind his back, quietly putting the Clark Family’s bank up for acquisition. Then, when he proposed negotiations, they didn’t even give him a chance and outright refused.
This wasn’t a simple acquisition at all; it was a downright hostile rger with strong-arm tactics!
As he vented his anger, the secretary stood still, not daring to even breathe. He quietly waited for Jacob’s fury to subside.
Jacob Clark was indeed infuriated to the point of dizziness. However, after the most infuriating mont passed, his emotions cald down slightly. He told the secretary coldly, “Go and check Rhine’s representative’s schedule.”
He didn’t believe he couldn’t see the person!
With the company in such bad shape, he had to find Rhine’s representative no matter what. Only by finding a way to make Rhine’s rep stop the acquisition would he still have a chance to turn the tide!
“Alright.”
The secretary was very efficient in his work. Soon, he found the information and reported to Jacob Clark, “President Clark, I found it. Rhine’s representative will attend a charity dinner tonight!”
“Find a way for to attend as well!” Jacob Clark’s face was icy, his gloomy eyes filled with determination.
Attending the event was a good start. As long as the acquisition wasn’t completed within a day, there would still be a chance…
