A Promising Youth

Chapter 40 Marcel, You're so Cruel!

Clara and I were so angry that neither of us wanted to talk to the other. I even wanted to leave and

never to suffer this nuisance again!

But she said.

“Matteo, if you think Marcel is an eyesore, you can leave right now and go find your girlfriend.

I am grateful to you from the bottom of my heart for making my company go on track!

As for Carrie, Marcel and I can deal with her, so we don't need your help!

When the factory makes money, I'll double your compensation.”

I was dumbfounded!

Regarding “Leave”, I just thought about it when I was angry, but she implied that I could get the hell

out?

Maybe I should leave. After I left, maybe Marcel would let Clara go, but only if I took the formula of the

General Grey away so that Marcel's thoughts could be completely cut off!

But if the formula was taken away, what should Clara's factory do?

Carrie had been trying to do things about it. And the purchaser cooperated with the factory because of

the ‘General Grey’.

“Marcel has never said a bad word about you in front of me, he always praised you for having a

promising future, but you keep denigrating him and slandering him. I knew him seven years ago, can I

not know what kind of person he is?

Matteo, you've let me down.”

She added.

“Fine, then I'll go, but I'll take away the formula of General Grey. Clara, whether you understand it or

not, I'll say I'm protecting you!”

When I finished, I turned around.

“You…”

She stepped on her high heels and came to me. She was angry, but she did not know what to say,

because we were clear the significance of ‘General Grey’ to factory. If I took it away, the customers

would cut off the cooperation with them.

“Are you threatening me?”

Her face changed completely. She looked at me with disappointment in her eyes, tilted her head and

said with a long sigh.

“Ok, the formula is yours, take it away. I believe Marcel will get more clients to the company.

Listening to her icy words, I felt sad!

I never wanted to hurt her, and taking away the formula was an attempt to protect her, but it just

couldn't be explained because she trusted Marcel too much.

Immediately afterwards, she looked to Nancy and said.

“Call Mr. Michael, the president of Fengjiang Industry right now, and ask him to pay partial of the

money. Matteo, you helped me, and I won't owe you. Is 100,000, enough for your salary these days?!”

I lowered my head clenching my fist, wondering since when our relationship had come to this!

I missed the first time we met, when she took me to stay at her house, cooked for me, and took me to Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

the economic summit, and we whispered and joked. How close we were at that time!

But since Marcel appeared, everything had changed. All of a sudden we were strange, and I could not

have the former feeling ......

Gritting my teeth, I yelled.

“Marcel, you bastard, you better be careful!”

After yelling I turned around and left.

But just as I reached the door, I heard Nancy said.

“Miss Clara, Mr. Michael's phone is off.”

“What? Call again!”

Clara said in a sudden panic.

“It is still off.”

“Call Fengjiang Industry!”

Not long after, Nan cried and said.

“Miss Clara, the people from Fengjiang Industry said that they have never ordered work clothes from

us!

I learned against the door, lit the cigarette, but I was cold to the bone!

It was a bad feeling.

“What?”

He quit?

He quit the day before yesterday?

Our work uniforms have embroidered with 'Fengjiang Group', you can't return it! Hey, Hello?”

I took a deep puff on my cigarette. I underestimated Marcel, I didn't expect him to do this!

Originally, I only thought that Marcel would use my feelings for Clara to blackmail me, but to my

surprise, he went straight for the company!

If those uniforms couldn't be sold, and the factory ran out of raw materials for further production, and

the whole company would be ruined!

The only way I could do was I traded with him on ‘General Grey’, If I didn’t, the company will be dead.

“Where's Marcel? Where is he?”

After stubbing out the cigarette, I turned and went into my office.

“Yes, yes, I'll call Marcel right now. There must be a mistake. It is a big order, it can’t be wrong!”

Clara pulled out her phone and her eyes were filled with trepidation.

“What's the point of calling him now? Clara, I told you, that bastard can't be trusted!”

Looking at Clara's wretched appearance, my heart twitched with pain.

But she didn't listen at all but kept calling again and again. It was obvious that Marcel refused to

answer her phone.

I looked up at Nancy and asked.

“Where is Marcel?

Nancy said, “He didn't come back with us and said he was going to talk to Fengjiang Group about the

next step of cooperation.”

Fuck, that bastard must have run away!

Frowning, I asked them again where they had negotiated the partnership in the first place.

And whether they had signed a contract?”

Nancy took the contract from her bag and said.

“A teahouse in the Fengjiang Industrial Park. Their company seal and signature are on it, but just now

Fengjiang Group said that their seal has never been taken out of the company, so the seal on our

contract is forged.”

“Why didn’t you talk in their company? How could you be so hasty?!”

I was so angry. The company finally was getting better and better, but because of Clara's negligence, it

was in trouble.

Hearing me complain, Clara cried.

With tears in eyes, Nancy explained,

“Marcel said Fengjiang Group is a large enterprise and it didn’t take us in eyes. But Marcel got the

order through connections, so it should be low-key. Miss Clara trusts Marcel, but no one expected that

he... he would do this ......”

Looking at the way Clara sat on the floor, hugging her knees and crying in pain, my heart was breaking,

but at least through this incident she knew Marcel’s true face. Growing up was pain.

I walked over to her, knelt down, hugged her tightly and said.

“Sis, don't cry, I will be fine. I'm here, don't be afraid!

“Matteo, will you... will you go?”

She asked with tears in her eyes, grabbing my arm.

“I'll stay with you forever as long as you don't kick me out.”

With that, I held her into my arms.
