Getting $10 Trillion Out Of Nowhere-Chapter 1812: More Friends

"I see!"

Monica nodded, then said with a smile, "Actually, Mr. McDonald, if you really want to help your girlfriend, you can tell me about this personally. There’s no need to look for anyone else!"

"If I were to mention this to you, it would be equivalent to me owing your Serena family a favor. Moreover, you’ve only met me twice and eaten a meal with me today," Connor said slowly.

"That’s true. After all, many people are eyeing this project now. With our relationship alone, I really can’t give this project to Miss Phillips internally!"

Monica also nodded very frankly and continued, "But since Mr. Mark has already called me, I definitely can’t ignore him. Mr. McDonald, don’t worry. I’ll cancel the bidding in three days and sign the contract with Miss Phillips directly!"

"There’s no need to cancel the bidding!" Connor hurriedly said.

"Why?"

Monica’s expression was a little puzzled.

"My girlfriend doesn’t want me to use my connections to help her, so you can hold this auction as usual and assess all the companies according to the actual situation. If you think that my girlfriend’s company isn’t too different from other companies, then sign a contract with her. If you think there’s a more suitable choice, then you can also sign a contract with other companies!"

Connor did not want to make things too obvious because he understood Freya’s character. She definitely did not want to receive his help at this time.

Monica understood Connor’s meaning and said with a smile, "Miss Phillips is really a strong-willed woman. She already has an outstanding boyfriend like Mr. McDonald, but she’s still so hardworking. Moreover, you seem to love your girlfriend very much, Mr. McDonald. I envy the two of you!"

"My girlfriend’s company has just started to improve. I don’t want to hurt her at this time, so I have to ask you not to be too obvious!" Connor said slowly.

Monica nodded. "Mr. McDonald, don’t worry. I know what to do!"

"Thank you so much!" Connor stood up and continued, "If there’s nothing else, I won’t disturb you anymore."

"Mr. McDonald, I’ve already asked someone to transfer back the 500 million USD you spent on the amethyst pendant. Just treat that amethyst pendant as my gift to you!"

Monica said, also standing up.

"Isn’t this gift a little too expensive?" Connor asked, stunned.

"500 million US dollars may be a huge sum of money for ordinary people, but it shouldn’t be a big sum of money for the Serena family or you. However, if we can use this opportunity to let the Serena family be friends with someone like you, it’s very cost-effective!" Monica explained with a smile.

"Friends?"

Connor smiled faintly, the expression on his face somewhat strange, but he did not refuse. After all, Monica was the one who took the initiative to express her goodwill to him. It was not a bad thing to have more friends, so hewould not refuse.

A few minutes later, Connor got into the car accompanied by Monica and was sent directly to his hotel entrance.

Originally, Connor went to see Monica today to ask her about some things related to the amethyst pendant. However, because this amethyst pendant was too old, and Monica’s great-grandmother had passed away long ago, he did not get any useful information at all.

Although they did not find any clues about the amethyst pendant, Connor had settled the matter with Freya’s company, so it was not a wasted trip today.

When Connor returned to the hotel, he found that Freya had already returned. She was sitting on the sofa alone and looking at her laptop. Her expression did not seem very happy.

"Connor, you’re back?"

When Freya heard the sound of the door opening, she quickly ran to his side.

Connor could feel that she was in a bad mood, so he took the initiative to ask, "How was your meeting with the clients today?"

Freya could not help but sigh when she heard his words.

When Connor saw that, he knew what was going on. "What’s wrong? It didn’t go very well?"

"Don’t mention it. It didn’t go very smoothly. After I met these people, they all asked me about the collaboration with the Serena Family. If I can’t get the Serena Family’s project this time, they won’t choose to collaborate with me..." Freya said dejectedly.

"Those people are greedy. Sooner or later, they will regret it..." Connor said with a smile.

"Actually, it’s not that they look down on others. They’re not wrong to decide this; after all, these people are all businessmen. They will definitely put their interests first..."

Freya looked at Connor helplessly, as if she was comforting herself.

"You don’t have to be too sad. After all, the Serena family’s auction hasn’t ended yet. It’s uncertain who will get this project in the end!"

Connor hesitated for a moment, but didn’t say that he had already helped Freya settle this project.

"Even if the auction is not over, my company has no hope. I heard that a very large cosmetics company in Europe is also competing for this project, and the boss of this company has a very good relationship with Monica of the Serena family..."

Freya paused for a moment before raising her head to look at Connor. She asked, "By the way, how was your meeting with Monica today? What did you two talk about?"

"We didn’t talk about anything. She just asked me why I paid so much money to buy that amethyst pendant!" Connor replied.

Freya blinked and asked with a puzzled expression, "Yeah, actually, I don’t understand why you suddenly paid so much money to buy that amethyst pendant. What does that pendant mean to you?"

Connor knew that there were some things that he couldn’t explain to Freya, so he didn’t say much. Instead, he took out Monica’s phoenix pendant and handed it to her. "You can also understand it this way..."

"What do you mean?"

"I think this amethyst pendant suits you very well. You should always carry it with you. It might bring you good luck!" Connor said with a smile.
