Your Uncle’s My Husband Now Back Off, Ex! novel Chapter 94

### Through Unseen Doors We Step Into Untold Worlds Beyond by Sage Hunter Lane

**Chapter 94**

The moment Richard’s voice cut through the air, a heavy silence enveloped the meeting room, thick enough to stifle any thoughts of dissent.

Heads bowed, the atmosphere was charged with tension as each individual grappled with their own motives for wanting to see Clark ousted from his role. The stakes were high, and everyone felt the weight of their unspoken grievances pressing down upon them.

After what felt like an eternity, a brave shareholder finally dared to shatter the suffocating quiet. “Mr. Richard, we were simply too anxious… The Sumner Group lost billions in just one morning…” His voice trembled slightly, betraying the fear that lingered in the air.

Richard let out a derisive laugh, a sound that echoed with disdain. “Billions? Is that really a substantial figure? He can recover that in less than a year! If anyone here believes they are fit for the CEO position, then step up and demonstrate your worth!” His words dripped with challenge, daring anyone to respond.

Ignoring the shocked expressions around him, Richard rose from his chair, his demeanor radiating authority as he strode purposefully out of the room, his destination clear—Clark’s office.

“Grandpa…” Clark began, his voice a mix of apprehension and hope.

“Shut up! If this happens again, don’t expect me to bail you out!” Richard’s voice was sharp, cutting through the air like a knife.

Under the intensity of Richard’s furious glare, Clark felt himself shrink, his fists clenching at his sides in frustration. “I understand,” he muttered, feeling the sting of his grandfather’s words.

“By the way, Brandon will be returning to the country soon. When he arrives, I want you to arrange a position for him at the Sumner Group. Make sure it’s a challenging role—nothing trivial that won’t allow him to grow,” Richard commanded, his tone leaving no room for argument.

A flicker of resentment flashed in Clark’s eyes. It was evident that Richard was preparing to mentor Brandon Sumner, positioning him as a potential successor, and Clark felt the ground beneath him shift ominously.

“Alright, I’ll take care of it,” Clark replied, his voice steady despite the storm brewing within him.

Richard huffed dismissively as he turned to leave, the conversation clearly finished in his mind.

Though the immediate crisis had been sidestepped, Clark was acutely aware of the precariousness of his situation. With Brandon’s impending arrival, his own place within the company felt increasingly threatened. He needed to solidify his position as the undisputed heir to the Sumner Group, and fast.
