The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 22

After Charlie ran out the door, he realized that Claire didn’t go far. She was crouching in the corner of a pillar, sobbing in grievance. 3

He approached slowly, took his coat off, draped it on Claire, and said, "Dear, don't be sad. The director of Wilson Group is just a mediocre position, you can do better than that..." 1

"No, you don’t understand. If I become the director, my parents will be able to stand upright in the family again. How could Grandma go back on her word..." Claire whimpered dejectedly. 4

Charlie continued, "Who knows? Maybe they'll come begging you to become the director. Look at you with your crybaby face, you won't be pretty when you go on stage later..." 2

"No way, it's impossible. Grandma has already made the announcement, there’s no turning back. You go ahead, get back inside. Let me be alone..."

At this moment, Lady Wilson and Harold ran out of the hall too.

The old lady was huffing and puffing after running, with a large crowd of busybodies behind her to watch the drama unfold, i

Harold saw Charlie and Claire the minute he stepped outside. He hurried forward, looked down at Claire whose face was covered in tears, and blurted anxiously, "Claire, hurry up and pursue Miss Young, ask her not to terminate our contract!" 3

Claire stared at him in a daze. "Terminate our contract? Why?"

Harold growled indignantly, "Stop pretending! It must be you who had instructed Miss Young to embarrass m e in front of everyone! If you don’t settle this, I won’t let you go!" 1

Slap! i

Lady Wilson slapped Harold again and chided angrily, "How could you talk to your sister like that, you b* stard! She is the director of our Wilson Group!" 2

Harold stomped anxiously. "Grandma... didn't you say that you want me to be the director?" 1

"If it wasn't for you brainwashing me, why would I have changed my mind suddenly? If you continue to behave like this, get out of the Wilson family!” 1

Harold was extremely outraged after being slapped twice, but this was not the moment for him to burst in fury. He could only swallow his irritation.

Lady Wilson turned to Claire and persuaded her." Claire, please, I beg you. You are now the director of the Wilson family, please explain it to Miss Young. Otherwise, we're completely ruined!" 2
