Your Uncle’s My Husband Now Back Off, Ex! novel Chapter 453

Chapter 453

“Okay, I understand. I’ll bring over a bottle of Dad’s favorite wine tonight,” Cyrus said.

After hanging up, Cyrus turned to Clark with excitement.

“Clark, your grandfather is probably already considering my earlier suggestion about hypnotizing Damon. If the plan works out, not only will the Sumner Group be ours but Prospectus Technology will be too!” he exclaimed. In contrast to Cyrus‘ enthusiasm, Clark remained calm. “Dad, I’m not interested in any of this.”

Ever since he received the news of Nyla’s death, Clark had been living in regret and torment for over a month. If he hadn’t cheated on Jordyn, he and Nyla might have still been happily married. Because of his momentary mistake, everything had unraveled.

He couldn’t forgive himself and had gradually lost interest in the company and everything else.

Without Nyla, what was the point of accumulating more wealth? The person he wanted to share that joy with was no longer there.

Seeing Clark’s lifeless expression, Cyrus frowned. “You’re not interested in the Sumner Group or Prospectus Technology? Then what are you interested in? Don’t tell me you’re planning to become like your uncle, letting a woman drive you to the brink of ruin?!”

Clark looked at Cyrus with a hint of pity. “Dad, you never really understood what love is, did you?”

“Don’t look at me with those eyes. If you don’t want the company, I do. And remember, you’re not my only son!” Cyrus retorted.

If Clark continued like this, Cyrus wouldn’t waste more time on him.

A trace of mockery crossed Clark’s eyes. “Dad, you’re not going to outmaneuver Uncle Damon. I suggest you put away your schemes. If the plan fails, he won’t care about family ties.”

From the moment Damon had dared to run Clark over with his car, Clark had realized that Damon didn’t care about family at all.

“You’d be better off figuring out how to trick your grandfather into giving you shares of the Sumner Group,” Cyrus shot back.

In the evening, Cyrus walked into the Sumner residence, carrying a bottle of wine.

Richard sat in the living room with a stern expression, showing no reaction to Cyrus‘ arrival. Clearly, he was in a bad mood.

Cyrus forced a smile, quickly walked to the seat across from Richard, and placed the wine on the table.

“Dad, this is the red wine from your favorite winery,” he offered.

Richard gave a brief glance at the bottle and replied with a curt hum..
