The Supreme Man: Took Everything in Power

Chapter 545 The Last Straw

Clarence was greatly stunned.

His previously smug look was now clouded over.

With deeply furrowed brows, he asked incredulously, "M-Manager Turner, what did you say? You want me to kneel before Reene and apologize to her on behalf of my family?!"

"That's right. The big shot specifically stated that not a single slap or word can be missed."

"I can't do that!" Clarence's face turned red. "I'm her uncle. How can an elder kneel to a younger generation?!"

Today, he had planned to humiliate Reene and then seize Clark Corporation back from her hands.

But now, he found himself being humiliated instead.

Naturally, he couldn't bear such a tremendous gap in circumstances.

Meanwhile, James maintained his polite smile.

"The big shot mentioned that if you're unwilling to comply, it's fine. In that case, we can only ask your guests to leave and cancel the engagement banquet."

Upon hearing this, Nicholas and Mia both exclaimed in unison, "No!"

If the engagement banquet was canceled, the Foxes wouldn't be able to use the 150 million to threaten Kingsley.

And Matt would have to kneel and kowtow to Kingsley.

As for Mia, she had always dreamed of marrying into the Fox Family.

Of course, she wouldn't allow her engagement banquet to be canceled.

Therefore, the two of them were anxious.

Mia grabbed her father's arm and cried, "Dad, this is a big event in my life! I'm afraid… you just have to put up with it!"

She didn't want to see her father kneel before Reene.

But as long as she could have her engagement banquet on the 60th floor and marry into the Fox Family, she would disregard everything else.

Nicholas also spoke up in a deep voice.

"That's right, President Wynn. Hundreds of guests are waiting. If you let them down now, it'll be hard for your family to rise to power in the future.

"But if you kneel before Reene now, it'll only be a loss of pride for you, not your entire family.

"Besides, once the engagement banquet is successfully held, we will become one family. It will be easier to deal with Reene then.

"At that time, you can torment her however you like and regain the pride that you lose today in minutes."

A hint of sinister expression flashed in Nicholas' eyes.

While they were discussing in low voices, beside them, Ysabel crossed her arms and sneered.

"Clarence, what's there to hesitate about? What does it matter if you lose a little pride now?

"As long as you can go up to the 60th floor of Ramada later, you'll have all the pride you need!"

Clarence's body swayed, and he seemed to be about to lose his balance. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

The pleading of his daughter, the urging of his son-in-law, Ysabel's mockery, and the discontented discussion of the guests around him made him dizzy.

Just then, Mia began to sob.

"Dad, this is about my lifelong happiness! If Mom were still alive, she would definitely kneel!"

This statement was like the last straw that broke the camel's back.

It struck Clarence's heart right away.

With his teeth gritted, Clarence looked at James. "I have one last question. Who is that big shot, exactly?"

James just replied lightly, "You'll find out when you go up there in a moment."

Clarence realized that James wouldn't easily reveal the identity of the big shot.

If he wanted to know who was humiliating him like this, he had to go up and see for himself.

Thinking of this, Clarence clenched his fists and said, "Fine! For the happiness of my daughter, I'll do it!"

"Reene, come here! I'll kneel to you!" He shot Reene a resentful look.

On the other hand, a sense of realization flashed across Reene's beautiful eyes.

She knew that the big shot in James' mouth must be Kingsley.

Kingsley was taking revenge for her.

However, she felt awkward accepting the kneeling of an elder in front of hundreds of people.
