My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 1014
Lucas looked awkwardly at Nash.
âYou go do your thing. I just came to see if the Business Department can function without Justin,â Nash replied nonchalantly.
20 minutes ago, he received a call from Hera. Clarke from Innovate Collective was boasting at a smart technology exhibition that he would be signing a contract with Universal Group in the afternoon.
He even openly ridiculed Lauren and Harrison. Nash could not tolerate this, so he came to the Business Department to intervene. He intended to disrupt the cooperation between Universal Group and
Innovate Collective.
Dressed in a suit, Clarke walked into the office. When he saw Nash, a smile appeared on his face. âOh, why if it isnât Heraâs husband? Whatâs this? You think you can handle it when Hera canât?â
He thought Nash was here to help Hera with the business negotiation. Unfortunately, Universal Group had already agreed to cooperate with Innovate Collective and decided to sign the contract in
the afternoon.
Lucas looked at Nash awkwardly. âMr. Calcraft, do you two know
each other?â
Nash shook his head. âIâm not interested in knowing someone like
him.â
Clarkeâs eyes turned cold. âWho are you calling âsomeone like himâ?â

Nash grinned. âSorry, I misspoke!â
Clarke was taken aback. Nashâs sudden apology caught him off
guard since he had cussed him out back then. However, Nashâs next
words filled him with anger.
âYouâre just a kept man!â
âYou! Arenât you also a kept man? Would you be able to afford to wear such nice suits if not Hera?â Clarke blurted out, his face flushing.
âClarke, please show some respect to Mr. Calcraft!â Lucasâ expression
turned serious.
Clarke snorted coldly. âOut of respect for you, Mr. Welsh, I wonât argue
with you today!â
Then, he turned to Lucas with a flattering smile. âMr. Welsh, the
contract is ready. We can start the signing now!â
Lucas replied calmly, âIâve changed my mind. Iâve decided to sign with
Baroque.â
The smile on Clarkeâs face froze instantly. âMr. Welsh, please donât
joke around. My heart canât take it!â
âDo I look like Iâm joking to you?â Lucas said indifferently.
âBut⦠But⦠Didnât we already agree on everything?â Clarkeâs lips
trembled. If he failed to secure this project, the president would
definitely be disappointed in him. Where would he get the money to
maintain his Ferrari?
âUntil the contract is signed, I can change my mind however I want!â

When he saw the screensaver on Nashâs phone just now, he already knew Nashâs intention for coming. Even that seemingly casual alarm had been set up by Nash in advance. Nash wanted to let Lucas know that the president of Baroque was in a relationship with him.
If Lucas could not handle even this, then he might as well give up his
position.
âMr. Welsh, you-â
âLeave!â
âUniversal Group is going back on their word. Arenât you afraid of damaging your reputation?â Clarke said angrily.
Lucas slapped Clarke across the face. âIâve been civil enough with
you, havenât I? How dare you go against Universal Group?â
Clarke held his face and glared at Nash resentfully as if blaming Nash
for it.
Lucas slapped Clarke again.
Clarke exclaimed in anger, âWhy did you hit me again?â
He felt so wronged. He got hit when he spoke and got hit when he was silent. Even though Lucas was a high-ranking employee of Universal Group, that did not mean Lucas could just simply smack
him!
âThis is Mr. Calcraft, our director. How dare you glare at him?â Lucas
said calmly.
Director? When did Nash become the director of Universal Group?

Clarkeâs eyes widened in disbelief.
