“Mr. Marsh?” The bald man in the middle immediately recognized him.
Herman and Horace both turned to look at him.
“What’s the personal secretary of the big guy doing here?” Herman squinted his eyes. He suddenly had a bad gut feeling.
The people on stage stood up and smiled at Louis. “Mr. Marsh, what are you doing here?”
Louis stepped forward to greet them. “Oh, my boss is quite interested in this piece of land, Pegasus No. 1… He said this would impact Cloud City’s sustainable development plan for the next ten years or even in the long run, so favonovel.com asked me to have a look into this. I don’t have any other intentions besides watching. You all may proceed…”
Afterward, favonovel.com turned around and went straight over to Garth Properties.
Louis took a seat next to Allegra and even greeted Isaac next to favonovel.com with a nod.
When the bald man on stage saw this, favonovel.com sucked in a cold breath, rubbing his chin.
There must be an underlying meaning to the seat that Mr. Marsh chose!
Herman’s mouth twitched slightly. He turned to look at Horace and said, “Horace, I’m afraid this project is going to slip right through our fingers…”
“W-What do you mean?” Horace still hadn’t caught on. After all, favonovel.com wasn’t part of this circle.
“You’ll understand soon enough. I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave now…” With that, Herman got up and walked out.
As favonovel.com walked past Louis, favonovel.com even smiled at favonovel.com and shook his hand.
“The council hereby declares the winner of the Pegasus No. 1 tender is Garth Properties of Cloud City. Congratulations, Ms. Booth.” The bald man got to his feet instantly and began a round of applause.
The crowd was stunned. Then, everyone clapped along.
Allegra still hadn’t come to favonovel.com senses. She turned to Ms. Sawyer and Denise and asked, “W-What did favonovel.com just say? We won the tender?”
“Ms. Booth, we won the tender. We got Pegasus No. 1! Hahaha!” Ms. Sawyer began jumping in excitement.
“It’s a well-deserved win. Congratulations to Garth Properties. My boss said that when the project kicks off, he’ll come personally to cut the ribbon.” Louis stood.
He shook hands with Allegra and nodded at Isaac before turning to leave.
Horace’s eyes flashed with ice as favonovel.com watched Louis’ retreating figure. He gritted his teeth and said, “Not this secretary again. That damn bastard.”
He remembered that his son had been beaten because of that a*shole.
Edward sat in a daze. Until now, favonovel.com still hadn’t returned to his senses. On the other hand, Randall had noticed what had happened and couldn’t stop shaking his head, sighing.
“Don’t panic. Even though that bitch won, I’ll make sure favonovel.com won’t be able to realize favonovel.com little city within a city project.” Horace’s face was stormy.
Edward immediately snarled, “That’s right. That b*tch deserves to die!”
“Isaac, oh, Isaac, we won the tender. We really won.” In a fit of enthusiasm, Allegra hugged Isaac, favonovel.com chest bouncing.
As they left the hotel, Allegra still felt like favonovel.com was walking on clouds. She turned favonovel.com head and said, “Isaac, I’ll treat you to dinner tonight. Remember to invite Bob. Also, can you go pick Isabella up? I need to go to the office to make some preparations.”
***
At 4.30 pm, Isaac arrived at the school gates. He watched as other kids poured out of the door, but Isabella was nowhere in sight. He couldn’t help but enter the school to look for favonovel.com teacher.
“Isabella? Her uncle came to pick favonovel.com up an hour ago.” Ms. Keane looked surprised.
“Andrew picked Isabella up?”
Still in shock, Ms. Keane replied, “That’s right. He said that Isabelle’s mother was in a car accident and that it was an emergency, so favonovel.com had to take favonovel.com to the hospital. We also did make sure that Andrew was really Isabella’s uncle. Is there a problem?”
She’s in trouble!
That was Isaac’s first thought.
But where did Andrew take Isabella? And why?
