Karl's heart sank when they didn’t agree with his plan. Didn't they hate Neera? It’s weird.
He hesitated to continue but he was reluctant to go home in defeat.
“Dad, there’s something I want to talk to you about. It’s about work.”
“Let’s go to my study.”
Frederic sat down once they entered the study. “Go ahead.”
Karl stated his demand carefully. “Dad, I have been responsible for foreign trade matters. Recently, we have been shipping our exports by sea freight. When there are some urgent shipments, I have to waste time getting several approvals. Please give me some authorization powers…”
Frederic stared at him sharply. He knew about Karl’s aspirations. It was not a big deal to ask for some powers. But…
“Why did Clarence visit you?” Frederic asked.
Karl didn't expect that Frederic knew about it. He couldn’t answer his question.
“Clarence is scheming as he had many experiences. Don’t believe everything he said. Do you understand what I mean?”
Karl knew that he couldn’t hide it any longer. He told Frederic everything about Clarence's plans.
“So, you agreed to his request because you’re also discontented with Jean? You want him to step down too?”
Karl was so nervous that he couldn’t speak.
Frederic continued, “I know what you’re thinking about. Since I could get the news that Clarence met up with you, Jean would know that too. You should know what to do since you’re smart.”
Karl’s heart beat fast listening to Frederic's dangerous tone. “Yes. I’m too reckless this time. I’m sorry, Dad. Please forgive me…”
“The family is in chaos now. I will forget about what happened just now. However, I won't give you any authorization for sea freight operations. All the procedures remained the same. I’m afraid that a lot of people will get it from Jean. We will get the benefits when that time comes. Why are you in such a hurry? You should learn how to be patient from me.”
Karl’s spirit lifted when he heard that. “Yes, I understand Dad. I will be more careful and I won’t let you down.”
Frederic changed the topic. “The doctor you mentioned just now, is she reliable? Hire her at any cost if she can cure Jean. Don’t let Clarence lead you by the nose. Also, I hate traitors. Clarence pretends to be close to you, but he has his plans. Jean is your brother, some things shouldn’t be done. Learn from Joseph, he’s more mature than you.”
“Alright.”

Jean didn’t react much when he heard that Clarence had gone to Karl.
He was not bothered when Karl visited Frederic too. Karl was not a threat to him.
However, Ian was quite worried. “Sir, we haven’t organized a lot of information yet. Will there be any changes?”
“The shareholders' meeting is tomorrow. They won’t have the chance to do anything.”
Ian thought about it and continued to organize the documents.

Author uses too many words to describe useless things and then don't clarify others, who is this aunts friend. Neere went to play golf with who?...
