Though none of the securities know that, Lucas is the son of Derick and now the new CEO. But as soon as they notice the man behind him, who is James, their thoughts change.
James is the only person who can be seen around Derick, and because of this, James is well-respected by all. Though part of the reason the security got frozen was because James Hiddenly gestured his hands, which is a direct order to them to drive Clara out of the building.
The security guard grabbed Clara by the hand and began dragging her to the exit door.
"Let go of me, you bastard, I swear I will make sure you all lose your jobs, how dare you drag someone like me, who is high in financial status? My money can feed your entire family, even your generation. Get off me."
Clara kept ranting like a dog while being dragged.
But just then, Jordan stepped into the scene and pushed the security guard who was dragging Clara. "Are you stupid? Did you know who she is?"
The securities gently bowed their heads, and one among them spoke. "But sir, you were the one who passed those direct orders; you told us the new CEO would be here today and we should keep everything security tidy, which means preventing any visitors from coming."
"Yes, I know I passed those orders, but that doesn't mean you should harass her, and besides, did you see the CEO anywhere close? I don't think he will ever come. It's more than an hour now, and he is still not here," Jordan barked back at them.
"But sir, she slapped one of us; that's why we have no option."
"Shut your filthy mouth and get back to work," Jordan bluntly instructed.
Clara scoffed, shoving her hair pridefully to the side. "Jordan, this man needs to be fired for harassing me in such a manner."
Clara and Jordan walked forward, and just before they could passed Lucas, who was standing just observing what was happening. Clara suddenly stopped at his front, then shifted her gaze to Lucas.
"Jordan, shouldn't this man be chased out of the building? His presence disgusts me."
Jordan then turned and looked at Lucas from head to toe. "Yeah, truly, the man disgusts me as well."
He then raised his hands and gestured for the security to drive Lucas out of the building. Though Jordan didn't notice who was beside Lucas, if he had known, he wouldn't have made such a decision.
After passing the orders, Jordan turned and left with Clara to his office, where he was to attend to her and sign the documents.
Soon, Lucas arrived at the meeting room of the Golden Hue Organization. And just as the billionaire businessmen saw him, they stood from their seats and bowed to Lucas, even though they didn't know who he was yet. All they knew currently was that the new CEO, son of Derick Storm, would arrive today.
There were about ten businessmen, though they looked tired because they had been waiting for more than an hour for the arrival of the CEO.
Lucas gently sat on the chair meant for the CEO while the other men sat at opposite angles, and a long table made of shimmering gold lay in the middle.
"Sorry for taking much of your time," Lucas gently apologised.
"Is he really the son of Derick Storm? But we heard Derick never once had a son."
Lucas could hear the murmurs from the businessmen sitting at both angles. Meanwhile, James was standing strong at his back, his dark sunglasses adding to his figure, creating a strong security aura around Lucas.
"Shall we begin with the main purposes of why we are all here?" Lucas smiled.
"Yes, sir, sure, but it would be better if your manager were here," one of the billionaire's businessmen suggested.
"No, we wouldn't be needing him here anymore," Lucas boldly replied.
Earlier, due to how Jordan spoke to Lucas, Lucas demanded that he be fired, and James put it into action immediately.
"---"
Jordan was in his office, Clara seated on his lap, while she rubbed his chest softly.
"You know I have always loved you; even when we broke up in college, I couldn't find myself to stop loving you, neither move on," Jordan foolishly said, acting so desperate.
Clara laughed. "Yeah, I figured you would say that. I'm always yours, only if you keep doing as I ask."
Clara was only using Jordan to get what she wanted. Making him sign documents that will allow her to get more money from the organization to keep pouring into her companies, and all this had been going on for some time now.
James grinned, almost looking like a total fool. "Yes, of course, I will keep doing as you wish, as long as I keep getting this body of yours."
James lifted his hand to grab Clara's breast, but just then the door pushed open. And one of the workers stepped into the room, her breathing unsettled. "Sir, the CEO is already in the meeting room."
As she said this, Jordan stood abruptly. "When did he arrive? Wow, I have to get to the meeting room at this instant."
Derick hastened his steps forward, but the worker voice sounded again. "One more thing, sir. The CEO requested that I give you this letter."
She handed the letter to Jordan, carved inside an envelope.
Jordan collects the latter; he pulls it out from the envelope, and just by seeing the content on it, he flinches, his eyes widening in disbelief.
"No, this can't be possible; I can't be fired," Derick panicked, then shifted his gaze to the worker. "Who the hell gave this to you, or are you trying to pull a prank on me? Because I swear it wouldn't be funny; I will make sure you see hell."
