Dear Sweetheart

Chapter 243 Treating Me Instead

“That’s very kind of you, Mr. Montail.” Rayna took a moment to adjust, but she smiled gently and replied, “To get the bid today, we’ve really worked hard. Winning it will be a testament to our abilities as a company.”

“You’re capable and beautiful, Ms. Garland. People are easily enamored by you.”

“You’re exaggerating, sir. I’m nowhere near as capable as that,” replied Rayna.

Rayna had not intended on speaking to this man at all. Seeing that it was soon time to bid, Rayna politely excused herself. However, Arnaud took two steps forward and kept her from leaving.

With a very flattering smile, Arnaud bowed politely and murmured in a deep voice, “Ms. Garland, I’ll give you a gift in a few days. I hope it’s to your liking.”

Rayna could feel herself tremble unwittingly. When she returned to her senses, the man had disappeared.

She furrowed her brows tightly.

This man who suddenly appeared out of nowhere to chat with her made her feel very uncomfortable.

At ten sharp, the bidding commenced.

All major companies wanted to win the high-speed rail bid, and the competition was expected to be fierce. Apart from Rayna, the other companies have also sent out female representatives. A lot of them appeared to be formidable and smartly dressed.

Rayna had no confidence before. However, since Faymon Group had lent her some experienced team members who had won a few bids, she felt more confident this time. As such, she was not worried about not winning.

After some competitive bidding from all the companies, the project was finally awarded to Hatchair Group. The representatives from the companies who lost congratulated her heartily and provided her with their business cards.

Throughout the whole affair, Rayna maintained a gentle smile. When it was finally over, Rayna allowed her exhaustion to show. She gave her keys to another colleague and asked her to drive.

While in the car, Rayna took out her phone and texted Curtis excitedly.

Rayna: Thanks for loaning me some team members, Mr. Faymon. The bidding went beautifully, and Hatchair Group got the project!

Mr. Faymon: Bah. With that crappy company of yours?
