Refusing to Remarry: Mr. Hawthorne, You Are Out-Chapter 82: Unwanted Woman

Jonas Hawthorne narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly, as if his tone had fallen into an ice cave, "Mr. Wyatt, you’ve been quite free lately? Haven’t you continued pondering Zanthia’s big clients?"

Touching on the most sensitive issue!

Jonas Hawthorne personally went to see Raine Sinclair, proactively offering to be her guarantor, but she didn’t even care...

Yet Finn Wyatt still dared to pick at his scar!

Regarding the Zanthia issue that Jonas Hawthorne deliberately brought up...

It was the commercial secret Finn Wyatt had previously stolen from the Hawthorne Family.

On this matter, Finn Wyatt was indeed at fault, so he touched his nose immediately and changed the topic, "I wonder who will win the bid today!"

Seeing him behaving, Jonas Hawthorne returned to watching Raine Sinclair on the high stage.

Leon Grant was sitting beside her, and the two were whispering to each other, looking very intimate.

With a slight flicker in his eyes, the hand Jonas Hawthorne had behind his back clenched tightly.

At this moment, Raine Sinclair, who was flipping through the bids from various companies, had no idea she had already been secretly discussed numerous times...

In no time, Leon Grant picked out the three most excellent bids.

"Verity Construction’s Henry Chambers has the lowest bid, Leo Keane has the highest, but the construction time is the shortest. Adler Construction is the middle choice. Let’s choose from these three."

Raine Sinclair glanced at Henry Chambers’ bid, and Jonas Hawthorne’s words suddenly flashed in her mind.

After pondering for a moment, she eliminated Henry Chambers.

"Adler Construction, a new company? I’ve never heard of it before." Raine Sinclair casually picked up Adler Construction’s bid and glanced at it, with a hint of doubt in her clear eyes.

Leon Grant smiled knowingly, "The owner behind Adler Construction is Finn Wyatt."

Upon hearing this, Raine Sinclair paused her gaze for a moment and then nodded, "So that’s how it is."

Finn Wyatt really meant what he said and managed to insert his people in.

She thought he was joking...

After a few more seconds, she was a bit troubled, "Upon looking at it, Leo Keane is also quite good. However, his construction cost is a bit absurdly high."

"The Keane Family indeed has a knack for this niche, so naturally, they have to rely on it to make money." Leon Grant had understood this long ago.

Construction is the Keane Family’s forte, and they have been perfecting it over the years.

It’s precisely because of this pride that they have raised the price significantly.

Plus, with Jonas Hawthorne backing him up, Leo Keane has been thriving in recent years.

Previously, Evan Sinclair had also pre-determined Leo Keane, but after Raine Sinclair took over, first, she wanted to account for every penny, and second... she wanted to see if Leo Keane truly had the capability.

Now it seems, it’s not too bad.

"If the boss behind Adler Construction is Finn Wyatt, and they are backed by the Wyatt Family, their technology should be decent. The key is his bid isn’t high, and the construction time is only a month later than Leo Keane’s."

Raine Sinclair began leaning towards Finn Wyatt.

Leon Grant listened to her making sense and suddenly asked, "Are you deliberately avoiding Leo Keane to avoid Jonas Hawthorne by his side?"

"..." Raine Sinclair froze instantly.

This question, she had never dared to honestly face it deep down.

If she chose to collaborate with Leo Keane, there would inevitably be times when they’d meet in the future, and it would increase the chances of seeing Jonas Hawthorne.

Seeing her silent, Leon Grant reminded, "Don’t forget you promised to hold this tender openly, fairly, and justly."

Raine Sinclair snapped back, "Of course, I remember that. But Leo Keane’s bid is indeed significantly higher."

"It depends on your priorities," Leon Grant touched upon the matter, leaving the final decision to Raine Sinclair.

However, as time ticked by, it wasn’t ideal for people below to wait in vain, so the two companies that made the candidate list were announced in advance.

Having just returned after changing his outfit, Leo Keane was swept clean of his previous gloom upon hearing he made it to the finals, feeling the sunshine above his head became much warmer!

"I knew it! With my skills, what project couldn’t I grab?"

He spoke, but inwardly, he let out a long sigh of relief!

Fortunately, at least he got into the final two, or he would have lost his face!

The others who weren’t selected were more or less a bit disappointed, but those with good manners didn’t show it, maintaining a smile all along.

But some were not convinced, standing up and shouting towards Raine Sinclair on the high stage, "May I ask what the evaluation criteria of Sinclair Group are? How come my Verity Construction didn’t make it? Our bid was the lowest!"

Leo Keane turned and looked in the direction of the voice.

It turned out to be Henry Chambers from Verity Construction.

This man had a bad temper, fearing neither heaven nor earth, and had quite a poor reputation in the industry.

Raine Sinclair eliminating him in the first round truly showed her discerning eye!

Given his good mood, Leo Keane chipped in a couple of words for Raine Sinclair, "No need to get mad, Mr. Chambers! Today’s tender is organized by Sinclair Group! They choose who they want; it’s not up to you. Frankly, we’re all like chicks being selected; have you not realized your place yet?"

Sinclair Group’s capabilities are apparent to all, with many competing in today’s tender.

Doesn’t everyone know the decision lies with Raine Sinclair?

Isn’t everyone still trying their best to showcase themselves?

No choice, Sinclair Group has that power.

If you want Sinclair Group’s money, you can only work hard to sell yourself!

Henry Chambers wasn’t that angry at first, but as soon as he heard himself being compared to a chick, he exploded!

"What chick? And Raine Sinclair, who is she? Isn’t she just rejected, an abandoned shoe? A woman not staying home to properly care for her husband and children ends up like this! Divorce shows she can’t even maintain a marriage, so how could she run a company?! Hmph! This is all just for show, making fools of us!"

Leo Keane was stunned for a moment, not having said much at all?

How come Henry Chambers exploded like a firecracker?

Warily glancing at Raine Sinclair on the high stage, Leo Keane retracted his head; this had nothing to do with him...

Jonas Hawthorne had already warned her about this man’s poor character, but she didn’t expect it to escalate to public insults?

Slightly furrowing her brows, Raine Sinclair steadily observed the rebellious Henry Chambers below.

Leon Grant also frowned and was about to say something when Mason Sullivan stepped in first, "Hey, I suggest you mind your words! It’s a fair competition; if you lack the ability, why shout?"

Henry Chambers was not satisfied, sneered, and glanced at the bystanders, "Everyone knows, right? Raine Sinclair was thrown out! I heard that night her husband brought the mistress to flaunt, and there was nothing she could do but sneak back to her parents’ house! And this same abandoned shoe suddenly becomes Sinclair Group’s CEO? I see Sinclair Group facing bankruptcy soon!"

The more he talked, the harsher it got.

Below the stage, everyone held their breath, even afraid to breathe...

This tender event turned out to be full of unexpected twists!

Finn Wyatt, still standing outside the crowd, watched Raine Sinclair with keen interest, curious about how she planned to handle the situation.
