Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 403

However, Clara did not dare to question Horace in such a public way, so she had no other choice but to stand up and deliver her report first.

Horace did not make special comments on Clara's report; instead, he commanded, "Miss editor-in-chief, please deliver your report to me once a week in the future since I need to learn more about your work."

After that, Horace stood up and left the meeting hall.

"Mr. Kirkland, I have something to consult you," Clara stopped Horace when he passed her.

Marching ahead, Horace did not look at Clara but said in an expressionless voice, "Come to my office."

Tightly clenching her fist, Clara followed Horace against the gossiping backdrop.

The gossiping dynamite bombed as soon as they both left the hall.

"What's going on? Mr. Kirkland asked her to deliver her report every week. Isn't it horrible?"

"Well, that editor-in-chief is beautiful. Do you think that Mr. Kirkland wants to hang out with her? Maybe that's why he asked her to make her report every week."

"That makes sense. If it is not because of that, Mr. Kirkland won't take over the magazine publishing company in such a hurry but arranged no staff changes."

"Oh God. Do you guys really know nothing about it?" noticing the discussion, a man interrupted the crowd with impatience.

"About what? Tell us!" the man's words claimed everyone's attention. They all immediately crowded around him and asked him to spilt more secrets.

"We are all working in the entertainment and gossip circle. How could you guys know nothing about our boss?" the man said with an arrogant tone. "That new editor-in-chief, Clara Hutchinson, is Mr. Kirkland's ex-wife!"

"What?" everyone was taken by surprise, "Really?"

"Yes!" the man answered positively.

After a few seconds, everyone recovered their composure.

"Well, but why did Mr. Kirkland give her such an order? Did he want to be with her again?"

"I guess you are right, or why would he make such a fuss?"

"Then, do you think that Miss Hutchinson would say yes? Should we treat her in a more respectful manner from now on?"

...

Clara knew nothing about the gossip about her relationship with Horace. At that moment, she was angrily questioning Horace about his intention in his office.

"Horace, what the hell do you want? Why did you take over the magazine publishing company?"

Ignoring Clara's anger, Horace said in a tender tone, "Clara, don't you remember what I said yesterday? I want to be with you again."

"That's why you interfere with my job, right?" Clara believed that Horace's decision was unreasonable.
