Chapter 684 Poses No Threat Karlâs heart sank when they didnât agree with his plan. Didnât they hate Neera? Itâs weird.
He hesitated to continue but he was reluctant to go home in defeat.
âDad, thereâs something I want to talk to you about. Itâs about work.â
âLetâs go to my study.â
Frederic sat down once they entered the study. âGo ahead.â
Karl stated his demand carefully. âDad, 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 powersâ¦
Frederic stared at him sharply. He knew about Karlâs aspirations. It was not a big deal to ask for some powers. Butâ¦
âWhy did Clarence visit you?â Frederic asked.
Karl didnât expect that Frederic knew about it. He couldnât answer his question.
âClarence is scheming as he had many experiences. Donât believe everything he said. Do you understand what I mean?â
Karl knew that he couldnât hide it any longer. He told Frederic everything about Clarenceâs plans.
âSo, you agreed to his request because youâre also discontented with Jean? You want him to step down too?â
Karl was so nervous that he couldnât speak.
Frederic continued, âI know what youâre 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 youâre smart.â
Karlâs heart beat fast listening to Fredericâs dangerous tone. âYes. Iâm too reckless this time. Iâm sorry, Dad. Please forgive meâ¦â
âThe family is in chaos now. I will forget about what happened just now. However, I wonât give you any authorization for sea freight operations. All the procedures remained the same. Iâm 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.â
Karlâs spirit lifted when he heard that. âYes, I understand Dad. I will be more careful and I wonât let you down.â
Frederic changed the topic. âThe doctor you mentioned just now, is she reliable? Hire her at any cost if she can cure Jean. Donât 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 shouldnât be done. Learn from Joseph, heâs more mature than you.â
âAlright.â
Jean didnât 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, lan was quite worried. âSir, we havenât organized a lot of information yet. Will there be any changes?â
âThe shareholdersâ meeting is tomorrow. They wonât have the chance to do anything.â
lan thought about it and continued to organize the documents.
