My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 1104 Arrogant

'Those people are actually scolding us on the Internet.

'How is this possible!'

Yet seeing the serious expression on the secretary's face, Clay had to take it.

Clay's fists placed on the desk were clenched. His wrinkled face became a bit more aged, and his eyes revealed a bewildered look. "How could this be?"

He couldn't figure it out.

'We've already apologized.

'Why are those unruly people still cursing us?'

Seeming to have seen Clay's puzzlement, the secretary lowered his head with a hint of sarcasm flashing in his eyes.

Thing had come to this, yet Clay still hadn't realized what he did wrong.

The secretary felt he really had to consider his best friend's suggestion and resign to find another job.

Otherwise, the McDaniel Group would sooner or later be brought down by such an incompetent leader.

Of course, the secretary didn't dare to show his thoughts. He asked with a worried face, "Mr. McDaniel, what should we do now?"

Clay clenched his fists again and again, not saying anything.

He did not know what to do either.

Earlier, he had gone back to the McDaniel family's old residence and discussed with his dad how to reduce tensions between them and Julien.

After the discussion, Clay immediately rushed back to appease the shareholders of the company. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

After all, the stock prices were falling, so he must give the shareholders a statement.

Unexpectedly, he had just assured the shareholders that the stock prices would soon recover when the secretary brought back the news that after the apology was released, the stock prices did not recover and instead plunged more quickly.

How could Clay accept such a fact?

This was completely different from what he had thought.

Clay had expected that after his apology was sent out, Sydney and those unreasonable people would forgive Erin and stop abusing him, his family, and the McDaniel Group.

'Sydney should have immediately forgiven Erin.

'After all, Erin's grandfather is Julien's teacher.

'For the sake of this relationship, Sydney should have forgiven Erin.

'Even though Julien is angry with us now, he will not disown us, and he will be reconciled with us no matter what.

'Sydney should have realized this and let Erin go.

'She should have forgiven Erin as soon as she saw the McDaniel family's apology.'

However, Sydney did not do that at all. Instead, she said that she did not forgive them and that their apology was not sincere.

Yes, it was true that they were not sincere in their apology, they were not willing to apologize to someone like Sydney at all.

The McDaniel family felt from the beginning that Sydney was not worthy of Julien and that only Erin was the most suitable for Julien.

If they had sincerely apologized, others would have felt that the McDaniel family liked Sydney and thought she was a good match for Julien.

In that case, when Erin was with Julien, what would others say?

Therefore, Clay absolutely could not let that happen, and for that reason, he chose to apologize in this way.

It wasn't sincere, but it was an apology.

So Clay thought Sydney should have accepted it.

'After all, sooner or later, we will make up with Julien. Is Sydney not afraid that we will say something bad about her to Julien and that he will gradually grow tired of her?

'Huh, it seems that Sydney is just a stupid woman.

'If not, how would she not have thought of this?'

The conceited Clay's face was full of contempt for Sydney. He forgot that in Julien's heart, Sydney was much more important than them. Julien would not make up with them or let them sow discord.

After all, in Clay's opinion, they were more important than Sydney in Julien's heart.

Clay couldn't see what was really going on and was so opinionated.

As for those people online, Clay was even more dissatisfied with them.

For Clay, these people were just nobodies. He felt they were unruly and that they couldn't be compared to people in his circle.

'Isn't it normal that they weren't mentioned in the apology?

'Will a person of high status mention ordinary people all the time?

'So what's so unacceptable about this apology?

'They should be content with this apology, shouldn't they?

'How dare they ask me to re-apologize to them!

'Forget it!

'Who do they think they are?

'A group of nobodies! How dare they boycott the McDaniel Group! Who gave them the guts?'

The more Clay thought about it, the angrier he became, and his breathing became rapid.

But soon, he calmed down and snorted.

'Anyway, it's just a group of ordinary people, so just let them make a scene.

'I would like to see what they can do. Can they bring down the McDaniel Group?'

Clay was disdainful. He looked at the secretary and said, "Ignore those unruly people online and just let them curse. Tell the staff to stabilize the stock prices."

Listening to Clay's order, the secretary was scornful of him.

As a boss, Clay was not smart, and he was actually so mediocre and incompetent that he couldn't even maintain his family business.

The McDaniel family and the employees of the McDaniel Group were so unlucky.

However, Clay was the boss anyway, so the secretary didn't reveal his thoughts. He just pushed his glasses and said hesitantly, "Mr. McDaniel, although the staff can stabilize the stock prices, this can't solve the problem. As long as the public doesn't stop attacking us, even if the stock prices are stabilized many times, they will continue to fall. If they fall to the critical point, we will be in trouble..."

Anyone with a normal IQ could realize that this approach was not feasible.

However, Clay was not one of these people. He did not feel that his instructions were wrong. Hearing the secretary's questioning, he was very dissatisfied. "What trouble can there be? I don't believe that these guys can bankrupt my family. Just do what I say. Stop talking nonsense."

His tone was impatient.

Seeing that Clay didn't realize the seriousness of the matter at all, the secretary felt very helpless.

'Forget it. I'd better find a way to resign after tonight.

'If I continue to stay in such a company and serve such a boss, sooner or later I will be finished.'

The secretary no longer tried to persuade Clay, who was so stubborn and stupid.

The secretary thought, 'Anyway, it's not my company that will go bankrupt in the end.'

He nodded. "Okay, Mr. McDaniel. I'll go now."

After saying that, the secretary turned around and went out.

Just after that, Clay received a phone call.

A shareholder asked him to go to the conference room immediately. Clay felt very vexed.

He had just assured them that the stock prices would soon recover and then it fell once again.

These shareholders were upset about this and were calling him over again to explain it.

Clay put the receiver back, sighed in annoyance, and resigned himself to going to the conference room.

Although he was the CEO of the McDaniel Group, those shareholders restrained his power.

So even he couldn't refuse these shareholders' demands.

Meanwhile, Sydney and Julien finally returned to Shallow Bay.

But instead of rushing back to their apartment, they held hands and walked toward the high-class market near Shallow Bay.
