Chapter 17

When Josef heard Eleanor say she could help him get the project, he immediately became interested.

The bidding would start next month, and Josef’s father said that as long as he could get this project, he would give him the heir position.

But Bernard was too hard to please.

So, trying to win over Bernard to get the project was almost impossible.
