Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 188

Russell didn't come alone, followed by many servants carrying many tonic products.

Russell looked at Clara, noticing her belly, "You finally did it! Good for you! These supplements are perfect for pregnant women. Just take it. You are the greatest in our family."

Clara was happy that Russell was here and hurriedly invited him into the house, serving.

Seeing this, Russell hurriedly said, "Sweetie, don't be bothered. You have to take care of your baby. Or you can resign and focus on being Mrs. Kirkland at home."

Clara felt that except for her stomach troubles, everything was fine, and she was not prepared to quit her job.

It took her much effort to work in the press these years, so she was reluctant.

"Grandpa, don't worry. I have a plan."

"Fine, it's up to you, as long as you're happy."

Russell was exalted when he heard that Clara was pregnant. He loved Horace the most and naturally loved his child very much.

Clara recently felt that Russell had become more amiable.

Although he was old, he was authoritative enough, respected by everyone. Unlike Horace, it was clear how much of a ruler Russell was in the business world back then. But now, he was a gracious older man.

Russell looked at Clara preparing some snacks and couldn't resist asking, "It is said that a mother's intuition is the strongest when it comes to the gender of the baby. Do you have any idea?"

She really didn't think about this question. Both were good.

Her confused look resulted in that this was her first pregnancy, so Russell was patient. "Do you like sour food recently? When your grandmother was pregnant, she threw up hard and loved to eat sour food. The sourer, the better. She ate several baskets of lemon."

Lemons? Clara's mouth recoiled when she thought about it.

"No, I just keep throwing up lately but have no special flavors to food."

"It's normal. Don't be nervous. You looked not as good as it used to be, so you must relax and rest well."

Yes. Clara also felt that she was haggard recently, her appetite was terrible, and she had lost a lot of weight.

"Even if it's a little girl, I will love her well and train her as the successor of the Kirkland family. She will be sent to study abroad and attend a good first-class school. You should not worry too much. It is not good for the child either."

Clara's expression changed when she heard these words.

She didn't expect Russell to think so highly of her child and even say he wanted it to be the successor.

After all, Sean and Darren also would have babies soon.

She didn't expect that Russell would be so biased. If Sean would be furious if he knew what Russell had in mind.

Clara frowned and asked in a low voice, "Grandpa is so partial to Horace, will Sean…."

When it comes to the current situation of the Kirkland family, Russell suddenly sighed, "Sean has a great guard to Horace, as if Horace is his nemesis. He was like this when he was a child and never changed. Unfortunate. Although Horace is now the glorious son of the Kirkland family and the president of Solrace, he doesn't even have a share in his own company. It's a shame for me as a grandfather."

Clara was shocked.

Under Horace's leadership, Solrace performed better in consecutive years.

"How is it possible? Horace is also a part of the family. He's supposed to get a share."

"Of course, he should. I have thought of transferring him some of my shares, but Sean has been putting pressure on the board of directors so that they dare not make any rash moves. They have also been acted by Sean. A bunch of losers. So the board didn't agree, and Horace's shares have been left hanging."

"Sean is holding all of the shares?"

Russell nodded and sneered, "Yes, fortunately, you are pregnant, so Horace finally has a reason to be able to receive shares. That's why I hope you two get married and have babies. The Kirkland family can be without Sean but cannot be without Horace."

Clara's eyes flickered for a moment.

Perhaps Sean's guard to Horace came from Russell's blatant partiality.

She couldn't meddle in it. "Grandpa, you're so kind to Horace."

"Horace is the most like me. I love him more. Besides, he is kind. His impassiveness was because of the accident ten years ago. He was very kind and talkative when he was a child. Now that I'm old, I can't control that much, so Horace is really aggrieved."

It was apparent that he did not only like Horace but also loved this grandson.

As Clara listened, she couldn't help but ponder.

Sean was sinister and insatiable to hold so many shares but still had been guarding against Horace, kidnapping and framing him. He was too terrible.

Clara felt sad for Horace, he was loved by his grandfather, but the rest of his family saw him as an enemy.

He didn't get what he deserved but built up such a large group from nothing.

Not only did he have to struggle for his career, but he also had to pretend to be crippled in public, which was painful and tiring.

Russell talked to Clara a lot more about family matters. After a long while, he got up. "I'm relieved to see that you're fine. Take good care of yourself. I will go."

Clara wanted to put on her coat to see Russell off, but he stopped her. "Go back. I'm okay."

Soon after Russell left, someone rang the doorbell again. Clara thought that Russell had forgotten something and hurried to open the door.

However, she couldn't help but freeze again when she saw the person outside.
