Did he really have to go through with eating the table?<\/p>\n<p>That was completely out of the question!<\/p>\n<p>Sure, he could buy a new car after his old one was destroyed in the fire, but how on earth could he eat a table?<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-9\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"margin-top:50px;margin-bottom:50px;\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-fill\">\n            <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>He would genuinely perish if he had to do that!<\/p>\n<p>The crowd jeered, \u201cHey, Clinton, remember you promised to eat the table if you lost. Are you really going to break your word again?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cExactly! Everyone is eagerly anticipating your circus act!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Someone slammed the table loudly. \u201cCome on, let\u2019s see your performance!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Clinton\u2019s face flushed a mix of red and green. He mumbled, \u201cWe\u2019re friends here; do you really have to kick me when I\u2019m already down?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDo we?\u201d Charlie laughed. \u201cYou started this, and they\u2019re just pushing you to keep your promise. Why so bitter?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Clinton lowered his gaze. He realized there was no escaping this predicament, so he swallowed his pride and said meekly, \u201cI apologize. I was impulsive and upset. Charlie, I\u2019m sorry for underestimating you. Guys, I\u2019m sorry; I hope you can forgive me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The crowd was taken aback by Clinton\u2019s unexpected humility. Was this really the arrogant Clinton Tucker? They couldn\u2019t remember a time when he was so submissive!<\/p>\n<p>But Clinton felt he had no choice.<\/p>\n<p>What other options did he have?<\/p>\n<p>If he didn\u2019t back down, he\u2019d have to eat the table, which was absolutely out of the question.<\/p>\n<p>If he shamelessly broke his promise, the crowd would find countless ways to humiliate him even further.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, adopting a humble and meek attitude seemed to be his only escape from this ridiculous wager.<\/p>\n<p>Sure enough, as soon as he offered his apology, someone chimed in, \u201cWow, it\u2019s rare to see Clinton Tucker apologize. Plus, you can\u2019t really force him to eat the table, can you? Let\u2019s just let it go!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, let\u2019s forget about the table! We\u2019re all still waiting for lunch! Let\u2019s get on with it!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Charlie recognized that it was impossible for Clinton to actually eat the table, but he felt that Clinton deserved some consequences for his arrogance. His aim had been accomplished with Clinton\u2019s apology.<\/p>\n<p>However, Charlie knew that this was just a small lesson; he wouldn\u2019t let Clinton off so easily. Something much worse was in store for him.<\/p>\n<p>So, Charlie declared, \u201cSince Clinton has apologized, I\u2019ll let the table-eating bet go. Today is Douglas\u2019s restaurant opening, so let\u2019s not steal his thunder!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Clinton let out a sigh of relief, but inside, his blood was boiling, and he envisioned getting back at Charlie.<\/p>\n<p>Charlie wasn\u2019t planning to let Clinton off the hook either. He sent a message to Doris: \u201cIs there a deputy general manager with the last name Tucker? His son is Clinton Tucker. Can you look into this for me?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Before long, Doris replied, \u201cYes, Joseph Tucker. What\u2019s up, Chairman? Any directives?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTerminate him immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn it!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>***<\/p>\n<p>Clinton was completely unaware that his father was being dismissed from Emgrand Group and was currently in the process of being terminated.<\/p>\n<p>He felt a wave of relief after escaping the bet, but secretly, he was plotting his revenge on Charlie!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201c`<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201c`html In that moment, Clinton felt as if he could simply vanish!
