Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 449: I’m Not Mad At You

Simon’s POV: 

To make sure that the project on the east bank would proceed as planned, I rummaged through the documents in my office for an entire night.

The next morning, I decided to take a shower to freshen up.

After coming out of the bathroom, I dried my hair with a towel and turned on the TV to watch the news.Lo and behold, when I saw what was on the news, I froze.

"Caroline Wilson of the Wilson Group is suspected of murder."

At this time, my assistant, Leah, came into my office.She appeared to be apprehensive.

"Mr.Felix, I just received word from Miss Lewis.She has refused to continue to work with us."

Upon hearing that, my vision dimmed.

"What’s going on? Why did she suddenly terminate our cooperation?"

 Vanessa was one of the most talented architects I had met.

Both Caroline and I were quite impressed with her works.

The project on the east bank was about to begin.

However, during this crucial moment, Vanessa abruptly called off the partnership.

Things weren’t going as smoothly as I’d hoped.

"Miss Lewis didn’t tell me a particular reason," Leah explained.

Annoyed, I frowned and commanded, "Contact her and see if we can patch things up with her."

"There’s no need to do that.I’m already here."

Just then, Vanessa came in along with her assistant.

"Ah, Miss Lewis, long time no see,"

I greeted with a polite smile.

She smiled back at me and said, "I intend to cancel the partnership with the Wilson Group."

"Could you shed light on that matter? Are you not happy with the contract price we offered you? If so, then we can renegotiate the terms later," I replied.

"I read the news and found out that Miss Wilson has just been involved in a murder case.I’m sure it would be perfectly understandable that I’d want to cancel our partnership because of that reason, yes?"

Vanessa replied firmly, shaking her head in disappointment.I wanted to appease her again, but she didn’t give me a chance to explain.

Wearing a stern expression, she left the office.

Meanwhile, I was lost in thought, thinking of how to solve this predicament.
