Chapter 11

“Mr. Laurence, let me introduce you, this is my girlfriend Eleanor.”

Josef introduced her generously, causing Eleanor to be taken aback.

She never thought that the status she once longed for would be given to her by a jerk.

And the man she yearned for just held his wine glass, never glancing at her.

It was as if everything happening here had nothing to do with him, so indifferent and heartless.

Seeing Bernard not interested a bit, Josef immediately grabbed Eleanor’s chin.

“Mr. Laurence, don’t you think she looks like Sophie?”

Today, he met Ms. Ratliff, who looked very similar to Eleanor, when he went to the Ratliff Group for a project discussion.

After some inquiries, he found out that Ms. Ratliff, who just returned to the country, was Bernard’s girlfriend.

He quickly went to the Laurence Group to get close to Bernard by using Eleanor’s similar face to Sophie and successfully invited him.

Josef was determined to take advantage of Bernard’s presence and secure the project in the west of the city.
