“It the Freeman Group wins the bid, you have to strip naked publicly, admit to being a cheap gestuctress and then leave Parlem forever, never to appear again!”
It was apparent that Krin wanted to humiliate Sheena by having so many demands despite it being only for one bet
skye telt annoyed and was about to retaliate on Sheena’s behalf, but Sheena held him back With a faint smile, Sheena replied, “I’m not asking for much. If any other company wins, you just need to kneel and kowtow tothree times,”
Erin was initially taken aback, but she felt confident she would not lose. Hence, she did not mind the bet. “Sure! I’ll be waiting to see you strip down, losing all your dignity!”
After her bold statement, Erin confidently returned to her seat.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs she sat, the host walked out to announce the results. After sofficial statements, he produced the final list of winners and began reading, “First to be announced is the Mount Raine District’s plot of land. Congratulations to Secure Interlink Construction Company for winning…”
The earlier announcements were about less significant pieces of land. As the host announced each winning company, applause followed from the audience.
Erin’s heart raced as the announcement for the western suburbs drew closer, feeling a mixture of excitement and a hint of nervousness. She instinctively looked at Sheena for her reaction, only to find Sheena still looking composed.
Erin scoffed. She wanted to see how Sheena would react when the actual announcement was made.
“Lastly, we cto the most coveted piece of land in this event, the prlocation in the western suburbs. Who will be the winner?”
On stage, the host’s expression turned mysterious, finally getting to the climax of the event.
The atmosphere in the room grew lively.
Faye, who had been a bit anxious, immediately felt reassured when she thought she saw the host glancing in her direction.
“Let’s congratulate the winner of this prestigious spot…”
As the host announced the winner, Faye stood up directly, even turning around and smiling as she waved toward the back row, displaying an expression of triumph.
“The winner of the western suburbs land plot is Serene Real Estate Limited. Congratulations!” Faye was about to step onto the stage to present her speech when she heard the unfamiliar name, causing her to freeze.
Serene Real Estate Limited?!
It was not the Freeman Group that won the bid…
How could this be happening? When did this unmemorable small company emerge? the bat not even heard of them!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt that moment, her gesture of standing up and waving looked like that of a clown. The words Serene Real Estate Limited” felt like a series of heavy slaps, leaving her utterly embarrassed Whispers spread among the audience as they looked at Faye with sharp gazes.
Erin stood up in disbelief and questioned, “This can’t be true! Who the hell is Serene Real Estate Limited? Whether it’s experience, pricing, or reputation, how can they compare to the Freeman Group? Did you collaborate in secret and manipulate the situation against us?”
The host’s expression turned sour, warning Erin, “Ms. Freeman, please mind your language. We decided based on comparing the bid proposals and project plans submitted by each company. It was completely fair and just.”
“I don’t believe it! Unless you provide evidence, I won’t accept it!” Erin persisted.
The host was in a difficult situation. After all, bid proposals and project plans were highly confidential and could not be made public. For any company, this was a strict rule.
Hence, what evidence was she talking about?
Then again, if they did not provide something, it would make them appear guilty..
Seeing him silent, Erin sneered triumphantly, “As long as you can’t produce evidence, this bid for the western suburb land is invalid!”
The host was visibly in a dilemma, mumbling, “Well…”
Seeing the host’s hesitation, Sheena exchanged a glance with Sarah, who was seated in the back corner.
Sarah understood and stood up, walking toward the stage.
