“How dare you!”
Richard slammed the chair and yelled. Nobody had ever dared to speak to favonovel.com in such a tone. Even Donald, who held a high post also smiled when they met. Yet, a lousy grandson-in-law like Thomas dared to question him. It was ridiculous!
“Thomas Mayo, who do you think you are? You don’t have the right to speak in the Hill family!”
Thomas was not angry. He just spoke nonchalantly to Emma. “You can go in for the bidding.”
Richard sneered, “Sure, you can go. You can show me how a woman does something that a man can’t. But, bear in mind that your bidding is your personal action, and it has nothing to do with us!”
Emma was in an awkward situation. She felt terrible for being caught in the middle of the men. She sighed, stood up, and walked to the small office, which had been built temporarily.
Harvard spoke as if favonovel.com was gloating. “Grandpa, I bet that she’ll be chased out in ten seconds.”
Richard coldly said, “She’s asking for it. You become influenced by the people around you, after all. She’s always with a lousy person, so how can favonovel.com learn anything good?”
On the other side, Emma walked into the office.
The Urban Construction Bureau’s deputy director, Cillian Wall cast a glance at Emma, and his eyes flashed with excitement. The person favonovel.com had waited for was finally here.
Before Emma spoke, Cillian was the first to ask, “May I know if you’re Emma Hill, the youngest daughter of the Hill family in the old zone of Shaol?”
Emma was a little cautious. “Yes, that’s me…”
Cillian grinned. “Hi, Ms. Hill. This is the relevant contract for the bidding of the reconstruction. Please take a look at it. If there are no issues, you can just sign on the last page.”
Emma looked dumbfounded. Everything was going so smoothly?
She had not spoken at all and had not even mentioned the construction plan that favonovel.com had come up with at the last minute. Yet, Cillian had already placed the contract for the construction plan on the table. She just needed to nod and put down favonovel.com signature.
Everything was like a dream. A weird dream…
So, Emma flipped through the contract. When favonovel.com saw no problems, favonovel.com took the pen and signed favonovel.com name on it. She signed two copies of the contract.
“I’ll keep one copy of the contract, and I’ll leave the other copy with you.” Cillian passed the other contract to Emma.
Emma was dumbfounded as favonovel.com asked, “Mr. Wall, aren’t you going to ask me about my construction plan and company size?”
“No, somebody has shown me the proposal. It’s perfect. I feel relieved about passing the construction project to you this time.”
‘Somebody has submitted the plan? Who was it?’
The first name that entered Emma’s mind was Thomas Mayo.
“In that case, thank you.” She took the contract and left the office. She was still stunned as everything had fallen into place so easily, and favonovel.com found it quite surreal.
Harvard looked at his watch. “Oh, my! I’ve calculated the time wrongly. It took favonovel.com thirty seconds to come out. But, you still got kicked out, right? Haha.”
Richard stared at Emma’s stunned expression, and favonovel.com thought favonovel.com looked like that because favonovel.com could not accept being chased out.
“Hmph! Women will always be women. They can’t accept a little failure.”
He looked at Thomas. “Is this the outcome that you wanted me to see? May I know what Emma has achieved?”
Thomas had a little smirk but said nothing.
A while later, Emma walked back.
Harvard sarcastically said, “Emma, why do you look so dumb? Did the deputy director insult you? Haha. It’s fine. You can learn from your mistakes. Just don’t ever make the same silly mistake again.”
