Chapter 502
Trading My Ex for His Uncle
Spencer had intended to persuade Damon further, but upon seeing Damonâs icy profile, he realized it was futile. With a sigh, he turned to leave.
Just outside the office, he spotted Richard exiting the elevator. Taken aback, he quickly approached him.
âMr. Sumner, what brings you here unexpectedly?â he asked.
Richard replied with a neutral expression, âIâm here to see Damon. Take me to him.â
Spencer hesitated.
Previously, Richard had confined Damon to his hospital room and prohibited him from seeing anyone. Furthermore, Damon had made it clear he didnât want to see anyone from Upon noticing Spencerâs reluctance, Richardâs expression darkened. âMr. Hogg, if youâre unwilling to take me to him, Iâll go on my own.â
As Richard began to push past him, Spencer quickly stopped him. âMr. Richard, Mr. Damon is currently working. Iâll inform him of your arrival.â
Richard frowned but suppressed his anger. âVery well.â
Since he was already there, if Damon refused to see him, he would wait until he did. He had no intention of leaving without seeing Damon.
When Damon learned that Richard had come to see him, his expression grew even colder. âDidnât I tell you to say Iâm not here if anyone from the Sumners comes by in the future?â
âMr. Summer⦠Mr. Richard is your father. If you refuse to see him, it will only fuel rumors among the company staff. The new drug is about to launch, an at this time could impact its introduction,â Spencer advised.
Damonâs face darkened. After a long pause, he coldly replied, âLet him in.â.
When Richard entered the office, Damon was already seated on the sofa, waiting.
âWhat brings you here?â Damon asked coolly.
Richard frowned, displeased with Damonâs indifference. âAre you still blaming me for confining you in the hospital?â
Damon chortled and replied, âNo. After all, youâre my father. Whatever you do, you always have your reasons. Itâs all âfor my own good.â
Richard was enraged as he took a seat opposite Damon, his face grim. âConfining you in the hospital was indeed excessive, but it was because you were emotionally unstable. If I hadnât restrained you, you might not be here now.â
Seeing Damon and Clark in such turmoil over a woman infuriated Richard. Even so, given the current situation, further discussion seemed pointless.
Just state your purpose for coming. I have many documents to review,â Damon said, his tone dismissive.
Richard was exasperated by Damonâs attitude, barely restraining himself from reprimanding him.
After a moment, he said, âEven if you were angry, crashing into Clark was a lesson for him. You two are family, and targeting his company doesnât benefit you. It only makes you the subject of ridicu Damon interrupted, âIf you came here to discuss Clarkâs company, youâll be disappointed. I have no intention of letting him off the hook.â
Unable to contain his frustration, Richard demanded, âWhat do you intend to do? Are you really going to drive your nephew to ruin over a woman?ââ
Damon chuckled, meeting Richardâs gaze as he spoke slowly. âWhy would I do that? Isnât there still the Sumner Group? Even if that subsidiary goes bankrupt, canât you just give him another one?
