Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Under the crowd’s gaze, Clarence’s bidding proposal was delivered into Richard’s hand.
“Hehe! A loser’s bidding proposal is no more than a joke when it’s handed over to Richard,” Kaysen sneered. He did not regard Clarence as a rival at all.
“Kaysen, I feel that there is something strange about this loser,” George walked over to him and said in a low voice.
Kaysen looked at him indifferently and asked, “What’s strange about him?”
“He seems to be different from his old self. Previously, Clarence dared not even draw in a breath on such an occasion. Today, he actually has the guts of bringing up the issue about the bidding proposal before Mr. Shelby…” George frowned as he said.
“Hehe! He’s just a loser, after all. It’s not worth mentioning him.” Kaysen retained a disdainful expression.
Meanwhile, Richard flipped through Clarence’s bidding proposal. After looking at it for a few minutes, his eyes sparkled.
“Whew! Fantastic! Awesome!” Richard could not help but praise it.
Clarence’s proposal was flawless. Each line was perfectly crafted.
Richard read Kaysen’s proposal in detail once again. It was trash compared to Clarence’s proposal.
The crowd was puzzled when they noticed Richard’s change of expression. They wondered if Clarence’s bidding proposal was truly that good.
Even Kaysen started to feel uneasy and sensed a bad omen.
Miranda also looked puzzled. Could it be…
She turned her head around and cast a glance at Clarence. She was greeted by the sight of Clarence’s side profile. He looked serious.
Miranda had never paid such close attention to Clarence before this. She could even clearly see Clarence’s pores and veins on his ear.
Richard repeatedly read through Clarence’s proposal for an hour. The crowd scratched their heads and waited for an hour.
Finally, Richard stood up under the crowd’s attention and said, “Clarence, your bidding proposal is very well done. It is the best proposal that I’ve seen thus far. Good job! The construction of the Sunshine District would be handled by your company.”
“I’m finished…” Kaysen nearly collapsed. He slumped against the chair and looked ghastly pale.
Meanwhile, George stood next to him and was caught by surprise.
“Huh?!”
Miranda was dumbfounded, as if free lunch had just fallen into her arms.
‘Clarence’s bidding proposal is selected?
“How’s that possible?!’
She felt like she had won the lottery after casually buying a lottery ticket.
Clarence was called over by Richard. He took the initiative to shake hands with Clarence. Then, Richard patted Clarence’s shoulder and said, “Young man, you’ve done a good job. Keep it up! You would definitely make a name for yourself in the property development industry at Mediterranean City in the future.”
“Thank you, Mr. Shelby,” Clarence replied faintly.
Just then, he was less than a meter away from Richard.
Clarence had a clearer sight of that hint of blood on Richard’s head. It practically shone through Richard’s skull.
“Mr. Shelby, be careful. Your forehead has darkened. It means that a bloody disaster may befall you in near future,” Clarence gave him a friendly reminder.
There was a crease on Richard’s forehead. His expression looked troubled, and he said, “Alright, I got it.”
Clarence did not continue as he noticed Richard did not seem to be bothered by it.
After the bidding proposal matter was settled, the crowd did not stay long and soon dispersed the meeting. Several property development bosses purposely came to Clarence and left their business cards for him.
Richard left the bidding site, got into the car, and was about to go back to his company.
A man like him who had a net worth of a few ten billion dollars did not have much time to waste.
The moment his car had just driven out of the garage, suddenly, a truck ran over it.
Bang!
Richard’s sedan spun 360 degrees on the road.
It hit hard on the guardrail before it stopped.
Richard’s driver died on the spot. Meanwhile, Richard was protected by the airbag that had inflated within an instant. So, he only suffered from a concussion.
Overall, he was fine.
If Clarence were here, he would notice that the speck of blood on Richard’s head had grown one inch closer to the top of his skull. f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂
“Has the premonition of my bloody disaster been fulfilled…?” Richard looked at the driver’s body in horror and was still in a state of shock.
…
On the way back, Miranda obviously felt much better.
“Clarence, how did you manage to do it? Your proposal was actually selected. It truly caught many of us by surprise.” Miranda did not bring up the divorce matter anymore.
“I sought help from my friend,” Clarence spoke frankly to her.
“Your friend?”
Miranda was a little stunned. Then, she nodded and continued, “Indeed. It’s impossible for you to produce this kind of bidding proposal with your current standards. You really have to thank your friend after this. He has truly done us a great favor.”
“Sure, I will.” Clarence nodded.
Beep! Beep! Beep!
Miranda’s mobile phone rang.
“Hello? Yes, okay,” Miranda answered the call and gave Clarence a rare smile. “Well, there’s no need to go back.”
“Why?”
“Why? You’ve just earned the bidding for the Sunshine District project. Father and Mother are very delighted. They booked a banquet in the hotel and invited us for the meal.” Although Miranda remained cool, there was a hint of joy in her tone.
“That’s great! Which hotel?” Clarence felt happy too.
Was he finally going to be approved by his parents-in-law?
As Clarence thought of this, he stepped on the accelerator and sped toward the hotel.
