Chapter 479 - Clarke Enterprise

Chapter 479 - Clarke Enterprise

After meeting Roger Douglas at the restaurant, Alan got even more stringent escorts. He was not allowed to go unguarded. It was not by Mr. David Clarke's request, but by Anne's. She had asked the bodyguards to accompany Alan wherever he went and because it was Anne's order, Alan couldn't refuse, he could only surrender. Mr. David Clarke couldn't help but smile when he saw that Alan was obedient and didn't argue as before.

"Today I have a meeting with one of the vendors for the company's new project, so maybe I'll be home late tonight," Alan said quietly to Anne who was helping Alan put on a suit.

"Okay, the important thing is that I'm calm knowing you have bodyguards. And yes, I almost forgot, Erick starts working with you today, right?"

Alan took a deep breath. "Yes, and because of that, Nicholas is very upset since yesterday. He didn't like the idea of having Erick working with me."

"Why is Nicholas angry? Wouldn't it be nice if someone helped you?"

"Nick is afraid that his position will be taken over by Erick. That's why he's been clinging to me since yesterday," Alan replied with an amused smile when he recalled the behavior of Nicholas, his best assistant.

Anne smiled amused. Actually, she already knew about the fierce competition between Nicholas and Erick to be the number one on Alan's side. Nicholas, who felt that Alan was his master, didn't allow Erick to get too close to Alan, while Erick also didn't want to lose because he felt that he had Jack.

"Why are you smiling to yourself?" Alan asked curiously.

"It's nothing. Come on, let's go downstairs. Everyone must be waiting for us at..."

"Use these," Alan interrupted Anne's words by handing her two black and white cards.

"This..."

"My credit cards that you can use to your heart's content," Alan said softly with a smile.

Anne was petrified when she saw the black credit card known as the Amex Black Card or Centurion Card. The unlimited credit card, which was the most exclusive type issued by American Express as one of the largest US banks, was in her hands now.

"It currently still uses my name, but later on when yours has been issued, then you can use your own."

Anne swallowed hard. "You're asking me to use this credit card?"

"Yes, you can shop as much as you want."

"This is too much, Alan. I don't need this."

Alan looked at Anne with a smile. "As Mrs. Clarke, you have to look perfect at every occasion. So you have to use these credit cards to go shopping for hours at a mall just like other women. I hate to see you just sitting around with Alice in the garden until late afternoon. Today, you better do more fun activities by going shopping at the mall, and buy stuff as much as you want. I can ask Nick to vacate the mall if you feel uncomfortable while shopping later."

Anne immediately waved her hand quickly. "No, no, no, don't do that, it's too much. Besides, if I do that, then many people will be harmed and I don't want to get other people into trouble because of ego."

"But it's more comfortable for you, baby. You can choose clothes, shoes, and bags according to your taste without being disturbed by others."

"Alan..." Anne sighed softly when she felt Alan's lips landed on her neck.

"So how about it? Do you want to go shopping or not?" Alan asked quietly as he played his tongue behind Anne's ear.

"Yeah... yeah... I'll go shopping and spend your money at the mall that has been emptied," said Anne nonchalantly, because she couldn't think when Alan started to touch her again when he slipped his hand into the blouse she was currently wearing.

Alan immediately stopped what he was doing and looked at Anne, who looked very tempting with her flushed face.

"Are you serious about what you say?"

"I'm serious, I'll go with Alice after you leave," replied Anne slowly while gripping Alan's hand who was trying to take off the blouse he was wearing.

"Really? But I seem to have changed my mind, I still want to play another round with you baby," Alan whispered lustfully, touching Anne's skin just a little excited him.

Anne's eyes widened. "But you have to go to work, Alan! Don't you have an important meeting today?"

Alan did not answer Anne's words, instead he bent down and grabbed Anne on his shoulders and he led her to the sofa which was next to the see-through glass wall.

"Alan, not here," said Anne frightened when she realized she was being taken to the sofa where she usually spends time reading books every morning while waiting for Alan to finish bathing.

Alan smiled. He then got up and took off the clothes that Anne had previously worn. "Relax, no one can see us. This glass is designed not to be seen from the outside. After all, even if there are people outside, no one will dare to watch us, Anne."

"But your important meeting..."

"That can be postponed, I'm the boss," Alan said quickly cutting Anne's words.

After successfully removing all the clothes attached to his body, Alan immediately grabbed her, helping her to remove all her clothes before finally heard a groan from Anne when Alan managed to take control of her body.

"I really like your presentation, Mr. Smith," Alan said pleasantly to one of the vendors who was offering to be part of the new project of Clarke Enterprise, a giant Clarke family company with many subsidiaries in Luxembourg.

The young man named Anthony Smith smiled broadly at Alan's praise. He then grabbed Alan's outstretched hand and gripped it tightly. "It is an honor for our company to be able to take part in your company's new project, Mr. Clarke."

"I'm also happy, sir, I hope your company can go through another process," Alan replied calmly with a smile.

Anthony Smith then released his grip from Alan's hand because he had to meet with the planning team from Clarke Enterprise, to discuss several other things before his company could qualify and become part of Clarke Enterprise's giant project to build a luxury residence in Dubai, which was predicted to rival the Palm Island that was already standing on the Dubai coast.

Alan was working with the Dubai government to create an artificial island that would make Dubai even more attractive to tourists, which was why he was currently very focused on this giant project while still monitoring the soon-to-be-launched Clarke family jewelry company. As one of the most respected families in Luxembourg, it was no wonder that the Clarke family business continued to grow from time to time. This was what made many people jealous of the Clarke family and intended to take what they had, just like what Ivan and Roger Douglas did. Actually, Ivan Douglas also came from a rich family, although his wealth still couldn't match the wealth of Mr. David Clarke, who managed to develop his inherited family business successfully. He was even able to develop into other fields so as to make the coffers of wealth continued to grow from time to time.

That was why the safety of the heir of the Clarke family was so important, considering that Mr. David Clarke did not remarry after his wife died decades ago. Erick, who was attending a meeting with Alan for the first time, was very amazed when he saw the company owned by Mr. David Clarke. He could not believe that the giant company that had never borrowed funds from Muller Finance International now belonged to his master.

"After this meeting is over, you and Erick go to Clarke's Jewel and monitor the progress there. Meanwhile, I will stay in the office to take care of the other vendors," said Alan, quietly giving orders to Nicholas to take Erick to the Clarke Enterprise subsidiary company.

"Yes sir, but are you sure you want to be alone in the office?"

Alan smiled. "I'm not alone, Nick, there are a lot of staff here. I have to finish this paperwork before dinner arrives, I don't want to go home late."

"Okay then, sir, I'll go with Erick. Excuse me, sir."

Nicholas and Erick then rushed out of Alan's room to go to Clarke's Jewel, checking the progress there in place of Alan's assignment.
