After Millicent left, Irene looked at the documents on the table and could not help but feel a little pity. These were all her painstaking efforts. Now it seemed that she could only pay for it. Irene sighed helplessly.
At this time, there was a knock on the door. “The president said that he wanted to see you. It’s about the land in the east of the city.” Lily pushed the door open and said.
Irene was a little surprised and asked her secretary to bring them up.
It turned out to be Mr. James, whom she had met once last time, and several strangers she didn’t know.
“Miss Jones, I didn’t expect that we would meet so soon.” Mr. James greeted her with a smile.
Mr. James was wearing a silver-gray suit and a black tie, which made him look extraordinarily handsome. His face was full of a warm smile, giving people a sense of distance. It seemed that he had known Irene for a long time.
“Mr. James? What can I do for you?”
“Miss Jones, we want to talk to you about a cooperation.”
“Cooperation?” Irene was very confused. Generally speaking, people who bought the land were not particularly willing to share a share with others. It would affect their own interests more or less. If they secretly stabbed him in the back, the loss would outweigh the gain.
Such a big project had to be careful, but even so, it was easy for the other party to take advantage of it. However, they could not find any evidence in a short time, and there was no way to deal with the other party. Whether it was to terminate cooperation or to cooperate, the consequences would be unimaginable.
This was to develop a large piece of land, not as simple as building a few floors.
Few people were willing to cooperate with each other because they closed their own doors to build their families, unless they were related by marriage.
“Miss Jones, I know you are very confused. Let me explain it to you slowly…”
It turned out that the development of this piece of land was also very optimistic and wanted to develop it in the direction of development. Originally, the government wanted to cooperate with the country to create a new situation.
They were counting on these entrepreneur to drive the financial situation of the city. They also needed to pay for the construction of the road and the construction of bridges and some benefits. Therefore, they had to take into account their emotions.
But there were too many people staring at that piece of land. It was impossible for the government to use privately say that they wanted to give that piece of land to anyone, lest everyone had emotions and complaints in their hearts. After all, everyone wanted to get involved in the matter of making money.
However, those enterprises developed this piece of land for either building a house or building a shopping mall or an indoor square. The government didn’t care about it at all, and the government couldn’t let it go so easily.
They had already planned it out, and not only would they benefit the country and people, but they would also benefit a lot from their political achievements. So they came up with this idea.
The government presided over the auction, and then sent people to buy it, and then found a suitable person to cooperate with. Although it was a little troublesome to make such a big detour, at least there would be no complaints in the hearts of those entrepreneur, and the complaints would not spread everywhere.
Moreover, as the government was in charge, it was easy to operate the secret case. Besides, which company could offer a higher price than the government? It didn’t matter even if the government offered a higher price. Anyway, the money would eventually return to them.
That was why there was such an auction, and Mr. James was the staff sent by the government.
At first, the Wilson was within their range of choices. However, they were a little worried that after the death of Edward, the Wilson would no longer be the same as before, so they were a little inclined to another group.
However, Mr. James had a good impression of Irene since she performed well in the venue and helped him later. He immediately reported to his superiors when he went back and tried his best to recommend Irene.
Then the government got Irene’s proposal about the land in the east of the city from somewhere and found that it was done very well. Many of its ideas were in line with them, which made them more satisfied.
After the investigation, he quickly sent someone to discuss cooperation with Irene.
It was a coincidence. At first, the government thought highly of another company, but Irene helped Mr. James and left a deep impression on him. Moreover, they happened to see Irene’s plan book, so they changed their minds.
Irene felt a little dizzy because of the pie falling from the sky. It took her a long time to come to her senses.
After she sat down and talked about some details with Mr. James, she said, “Then let’s talk about it today. Miss Jones hopes that we can have a pleasant cooperation in the future.” Mr. James was still preparing to leave.
“Nice to cooperate with you,” Irene said happily. This was the best sentence she could hear today.
After seeing them off, Irene still felt that she was in a dream. What had just happened was beyond her expectation.
“I didn’t expect that you, Tom, didn’t get anything in the end. If he knew about this, he would be so angry that he would stamp his feet.” Irene couldn’t help laughing at the thought of Tom’s expression.
…
On the other side, ever since Bastian had left to break up and cancel the engagement, Eva had tried her best to make a scene in front of his parents. Even with Jerry’s presence, Bastian could not change his mind.
“Eva, forget it. I think this guy has made up his mind. Besides, it was our fault at that time. Why don’t you change a person? You have such good conditions. Why do you have to hang yourself on this tree?”
Jerry was more open-minded. He persuaded Eva to let him go. At least, it was better for Bastian to know now than to know after marriage. Judging from Bastian’s attitude, if he knew about it after marriage, he would definitely get a divorce.
Eva could start over now and then find someone to marry.
“Dad, I don’t want it! I want Bastian. Help me think of a way.” Eva didn’t listen to his father’s advice at all.
No matter how much Jerry doted on Eva, he couldn’t help losing his temper when he saw that she didn’t want him. “How am I going to help you! I’m going to throw all caution to the wind with my old face. Don’t you think it’s embarrassing enough? Why do you have to rush up and kiss me?”
Jerry was exasperated at Eva’s failure to live up to his expectations. It was all because he doted too much on Eva and gave him whatever he wanted. As a result, he was in such a bad mood that he would not listen to whatever Eva said.
“You’d better reflect on your actions here!” Jerry threw out these words and left.
Tears welled up in Eva’s eyes as he watched his father leave. This time, even his father was unwilling to help her.
Eva’s beautiful eyes were filled with viciousness. It was all because of Susie. If Susie had not caused trouble, she would definitely have happily walked with Bastian and become his bride. However, all of this had been ruined by Susie!
Susie, if you don’t let me off, I won’t let you off either. If I don’t teach you an unforgettable lesson, do you really think that Eva is a vegetarian?
Eva had accused Susie of being the culprit, but Susie didn’t know that she had been angered because of Bastian’s breakup with Eva.
…
This day, when Susie went out to buy something and was about to go home, she passed by an alley. A bread car was parked next to it. At this time, her cell phone suddenly rang and she stopped.
“The dog food of Susie Keani is gone. You can go to the supermarket to buy more wet food with chicken flavor. Keani likes it very much.” Liam called her and said.
“Okay, I got it.” When Susie was about to return to the supermarket, a hand suddenly reached out from behind and covered Susie’s mouth and nose with a handkerchief.
Susie immediately struggled with all her might. Her phone fell to the ground, but she gradually fainted from the effects of the drug.
Several men immediately picked up Susie and carried her to the van next to them.
They didn’t expect Susie to struggle so hard in their panic, nor did they notice the phone on the ground.
“There’s still beef flavor. Is Susie still there?” Liam felt a little strange. Why did Susie suddenly not speak? Liam heard the sound of her mobile phone falling to the ground. He felt a little strange in his heart. Why was Susie so careless that her mobile phone fell to the ground.
“Hey, Susie? Susie?” Only then did Liam realize that something might have happened to Susie. He ran out in a panic and rushed to the supermarket where Susie often went. “Susie, you must be fine.” Liam said in his heart.
The distance from home to the supermarket was not long, and Liam had searched the surroundings but failed to find Susie.
When they suddenly passed an alley entrance, something on the ground caught Liam’s attention.
Liam rushed over and picked it up. Sure enough, it was Susie’s phone.
And this alley entrance was also the only way for Susie to go home. Because she could take a shortcut from here, Susie would go back from here almost every time.
As long as Liam thought that Susie might meet with a mishap, he could not help but feel an uncontrollable pain in his heart.
“Who on earth is it? Is it for money? Impossible. Susie’s dressing here is not conspicuous, and she is not a famous luxury. How could she kidnap her?” Liam quickly overturned this idea.
At this time, Liam was very irritable, like an angry lion. He couldn’t wait to immediately stretch out his claws and teeth to tear those who had taken Susie away.
Could it be that Susie had offended someone? However, Susie got along very well with her neighbors. Even the most cunning of neighbors had a very good impression of Susie. With Susie’s character, she could not possibly be blushing with someone else. There was no way she could offend anyone.
Suddenly, a person came to Liam’s mind-Eva. She seemed to dislike Susie from the very beginning and teased her several times in public and in secret. Sometimes, she looked at Susie with unfriendly eyes. It was possible that it was her.
If it weren’t for her, Liam really couldn’t think of who else could it be.
