Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla) novel Chapter 343

"Mr. Maddock, my secretary has already revised the contract and should be arriving in about five minutes," Clark replied.

Peter's frown deepened, and he looked visibly displeased. "Mr. Sumner, we've already agreed on the partnership. Why the rush? Do you think I'm going to back out?"

Noticing Peter's displeasure, Clark quickly attempted to explain, "No, Mr. Maddock, that's not what I meant."

"Then what do you mean? I've told you I need to catch a flight, yet you're holding me up. Mr. Sumner, I have other options too!" With that, Peter stood up and left.

As he opened the door, Damon emerged from the adjacent Room 9.

Clark hurried after Peter. "Mr. Maddock… I can arrange a car to take you…"

Before he could finish, he noticed Damon standing by the door, and his expression soured.

Peter also noticed Damon and was taken aback. He quickly approached Damon. "Mr. Damon, what are you doing here? Mr. Clark said you were too busy to handle the negotiations, which is why he's doing it with me."

Damon raised an eyebrow, finally understanding how Clark had managed to secure some deals from Prospectus Technology. He looked at Clark with a cold smile.

"I didn't realize I was too busy to meet with clients," Damon remarked.

Clark froze.

After a few seconds, he said, "Uncle Damon, I've already settled the partnership with Mr. Maddock, and he needs to catch a flight. I need to take him to the airport."

Damon maintained his smile but said nothing.

Peter, not easily fooled, quickly grasped that Clark had tried to deceive him and glared at him. "You dared to lie to me! I wondered why you were so eager for your secretary to bring the revised contract. It turns out you were afraid of being exposed!"

Clark turned pale. "Mr. Maddock, please let me explain—"

Peter sneered. "Explain what? I'm busy catching a flight and don't want to waste more time with you, but this isn’t over!"
