Wooing My Ex-Wife

Amidst the anticipation of the audience, Neal picked up the microphone. “After much consideration, the opportunity to collaborate with Dovil Group on this project goes to Harris Group from Chanaca. Congratulations!”

A massive round of applause broke out.

Among the crowd, some were sighing, some were gasping, and some were praising.

Only Gwendolyn and Cedrick remained calm. After all, the conclusion was not to their surprise.

Gwendolyn stood up gracefully, turned around, and gave the crowd a slight nod as a sign of courtesy and politeness.

Stepping on the red carpet, she walked up the stage and shook hands with Neal in front of everyone as an indication of the anticipation of collaborating with each other.

Sounds of cameras clicking could be heard as the reporters on the scene seized the opportunity to take photos of the handshake,

Gwendolyn had an elegant smile on her face.

With that, the event had basically come to an end.

All the other companies could only leave the hall without success.

To everyone’s surprise, before the event officially come to a close, Neal made another announcement.

“To all our distinguished guests. I have gone through all of the proposals submitted by all your respective companies. After discussing with the board, we have decided that there’s another proposal that is full of potential and come to the conclusion that we will first consider collaborating with that company on our next project.”

Just like that, the crowd was once again buzzing with energy. Everyone had their fingers crossed, praying that their companies would be the ones nominated by Neal.

As the guests waited expectantly, Neal announced, “Heartiest congratulations to Antea Group! It’s an honor to work with you on our next project,”

A small gasp of surprise could be heard from the first row on the right side of the hall. It was a female’s voice.

Antea Group was Paul’s company, and Paul was the man who had been in the museum the previous day.

The young lady next to Paul hugged him excitedly.

“You were the one who did the proposal. All the credit goes to you.” Paul said.
