\n**Chapter 181**<\/p>\n
The moment Richard\u2019s call came through, a wave of dread washed over Clark, settling heavy in his chest like an anchor pulling him down.<\/p>\n
\u201cGrandpa\u2026\u201d he started, his voice wavering, uncertain of how to navigate the storm brewing on the other end.<\/p>\n
Richard\u2019s voice erupted like thunder, crackling with fury. \u201cDon\u2019t you dare call me Grandpa! I refuse to acknowledge such a foolish grandson! This scandal about that woman\u2019s pregnancy has sent shockwaves through the media, and it\u2019s already taking a toll on the Sumner Group\u2019s stock prices. You need to resign immediately and vacate the company premises!\u201d<\/p>\n
The color drained from Clark\u2019s face, leaving him pale and shaken. \u201cGrandpa\u2026 but what about my transfer to the subsidiary?\u201d he pleaded, desperation creeping into his voice.<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t even entertain that thought. The board is livid with you at the moment. You must take charge of this scandal. If you can\u2019t clean up this mess, don\u2019t even think about coming back to the company!\u201d Richard\u2019s voice thundered, each word striking Clark like a bolt of lightning, igniting a panic that coursed through his veins.<\/p>\n
\u201cGrandpa, I swear I\u2019ll fix this as fast as I can. There won\u2019t be a next time. If the board members have concerns, I\u2019m prepared to start from scratch at the subsidiary,\u201d Clark implored, his heart racing at the thought of being expelled from the Sumner Group altogether. The idea of being barred from the subsidiary was a nightmare he couldn\u2019t bear to contemplate.<\/p>\n
A long, suffocating silence stretched between them before Richard\u2019s icy voice broke through. \u201cWe\u2019ll discuss this later. For now, take a moment to breathe and think carefully about your next steps.\u201d<\/p>\n
With that, Richard abruptly ended the call, leaving Clark in a state of despair. The weight of disappointment hung heavily in the air, suffocating him. He could almost feel the judgment radiating from his grandfather, a man whose approval he had desperately sought. To make matters worse, his cousin Brandon had always eyed his position with envy. With Clark\u2019s imminent departure from the Sumner Group, he knew Brandon would seize this opportunity to ascend the corporate ladder without hesitation.<\/p>\n
As Clark contemplated the chaos with Jordyn and the looming specter of his potential dismissal, he couldn\u2019t shake the gnawing fear that by the time he resolved the situation, there might not be a place for him at the Sumner Group.<\/p>\n
Resentment and frustration churned within him like a tempest, but he felt utterly powerless to alter his fate.<\/p>\n
Just as he was lost in thought, his phone rang again, shattering the silence.<\/p>\n
He answered it, his voice icy and detached. \u201cWhat is it?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cClark\u2026 I don\u2019t know how this happened, but the news about my pregnancy has leaked, and now there are reporters swarming outside my apartment. What should I do?\u201d Jordyn\u2019s voice trembled, panic evident in every syllable.<\/p>\n
\u201cLock the door,\u201d Clark commanded, his tone firm and unyielding. \u201cI\u2019ll send someone over to handle the reporters.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cBut even if you manage to get rid of them, they\u2019ll just come back. Someone even splashed paint on my door and threatened me\u2026 I\u2019m scared\u2026\u201d Jordyn\u2019s voice broke, and Clark could hear her sobs through the phone.<\/p>\n
Clark\u2019s frown deepened as he felt a surge of protectiveness. \u201cI understand. I\u2019ll come and get you soon. We\u2019ll find a safe place for you to stay temporarily.\u201d<\/p>\n
He hung up, determination coursing through him, when suddenly, the office door burst open with a resounding bang. Six board members stormed in, their expressions dark and filled with fury.<\/p>\n
The lead board member, a tall man with a stern demeanor, slammed a document onto Clark\u2019s desk. \u201cMr. Sumner, take a look at what you\u2019ve done! The Sumner Group\u2019s stock price plummeted by a point today! Do you have any idea how much the company has lost because of your negligence?\u201d<\/p>\n
Clark raised his gaze, meeting the man\u2019s glare with an icy calmness. \u201cMr. Colton, next time, kindly knock before entering,\u201d he replied, his voice steady despite the chaos surrounding him.<\/p>\n
Hugo Colton sneered, his disdain palpable. \u201cWe just held a board meeting and voted unanimously to terminate your position. Starting tomorrow, you won\u2019t need to come in.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAs long as I hold the title of CEO of the Sumner Group, you will knock before entering my office,\u201d Clark retorted, his voice unwavering, steel-like in its resolve.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve said what I needed to say. I expect you to have your belongings packed by the end of the day. The new CEO will be taking over tomorrow,\u201d Hugo warned, a smirk creeping onto his face.<\/p>\n
Clark\u2019s expression darkened, a storm brewing behind his eyes. \u201cWho is the new CEO?\u201d<\/p>\n
Before Hugo could respond, a chilling voice emerged from the doorway. \u201cIt\u2019s me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Clark turned to see Brandon standing there, a smug smile plastered across his face.<\/p>\n
A rush of anger surged through Clark, and his hands clenched into fists, the frustration boiling beneath the surface.<\/p>\n
It had taken Clark two arduous years to earn the respect of the board members, and now, their grandfather was appointing Brandon\u2014who had barely scratched the surface of the corporate world\u2014as CEO?<\/p>\n
Bitterness and rage coursed through him like a wildfire. No matter how hard he labored, he felt he could never measure up to Damon\u2019s legacy in Richard\u2019s eyes. Now, he couldn\u2019t even compete with Brandon, and the thought of it twisted in his gut. How could he possibly accept this betrayal?<\/p>\n
\u201cClark, you seem surprised to see me,\u201d Brandon said, a smirk dancing on his lips, relishing the moment.<\/p>\n
Clark\u2019s expression remained icy, his voice dripping with disdain. \u201cYou\u2019ve only been with the company for a fraction of the time. What makes you think you\u2019re qualified for this position?\u201d<\/p>\n
In the wake of the tumultuous events that unfolded, Clark found himself standing at the precipice of despair, grappling with the weight of betrayal and loss.

The fear of losing everything he had worked for transformed into a fierce resolve to reclaim his narrative. As he steeled himself for the confrontation with Brandon and the board, he recognized that true strength lay not in the titles he held but in the choices he made.
