Chapter 323 Overestimating Oneself
After leaving the Glory-Building Company, Jack was still in a daze.
He looked hesitantly at Joe. “Did we bring a sniper?”
Joe looked at him as if saying, “Why are you so stupid? It’s impossible.”
Joe’s words made Jack even more confused.
“Then the red dot just now…”
Joe glanced at him but didn’t explain.
It was not until the bodyguards came back with two infrared lights that Jack suddenly realized that Mr.
Smith was cheating Cowper?
Jack looked back with pity, hoping that when Cowper came to his senses, he would not be angered to
death.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut in the next few days, everything was calm. Cowper didn’t come to him, so Jack could only suppress
his curiosity.
Since Glory-Building Company had been kicked out of the game, the Smith Group and the Horizon
Group decided to bid on the project again.
However, this time, they carefully reviewed all the relevant departments to ensure that the same thing
would not happen again.
On the day of the bidding, Charlotte came to Smith Group again.
After what had happened last time, the chief secretary was particularly enthusiastic about Charlotte,
and she treated her well.
Jack looked at the chief secretary’s attentive look and curled his lips secretly. If Mr. Smith hadn’t
remembered that Miss Clinton had contacted him privately last time, he would have gone up early. Now
he could only stay far away from Miss Clinton, so as not to write a few more articles.
The original bidding time was ten o’clock in the morning, but until it was close to the bidding time,
several key bidding units had not appeared.
If there were only one or two, it could be said that the other side had given up, but now six or seven
units had not appeared…
Joe frowned and looked at Jack. “Go and check.”
On the other side, Charlotte also arranged for Frank to investigate why these key bidding units hadn’t
appear. Jack and Frank looked at each other and saw the seriousness in each other’s eyes.
It didn’t take long for them to return with anxious expressions.
A total of seven bidding units did not appear, and almost all of them were most likely to win the bid. The
reason given by the other party was that the participants had a car accident on the way, and now they
were all in the hospital.
Moreover, they also received a threatening message that if they continued to participate in the activity,

Although the project of the Holiday Resort was very big, they were also afraid of the people behind the
scenes, so they all tactfully said that they could not participate in the project.
Charlotte and Joe looked at each other and quickly guessed who was behind all this. It was Cowper.
After Joe’s warning last time, Cowper really didn’t dare to hurt Charlotte or him easily, but it didn’t mean
that he couldn’t mess up this project. As long as no one dared to take over this project, wouldn’t he
have to turn to him in the end?
Although the process was a little complicated, the final result would still let Cowper get what he wanted.
Unfortunately, his opponents were Joe and Charlotte.
The two of them were neither short of contacts nor money. They didn’t set up a construction company
to do this project before because they felt that it was troublesome. But now that Cowper had made
such a movement, they had the idea of starting their own company.
However, before the plan could take shape, someone came to Charlotte in person.
“You mean you wanted to take over the project of the Holiday Resort, didn’t you?” Charlotte looked at
Trevor in front of her in disbelief. “I remember that you don’t have the construction company?”
Trevor clenched his fist and coughed lightly. “Actually, I have one…”
