Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

Alicia didn't look for Frederick for the next two days because of what happened.

Frederick had been too busy with work and the final bid to see her as well. However, he thought of her every time he stepped out of the front entrance of the office. His steps would falter, and he would feel the loss keenly.

He was working on some urgent tasks when the door to his office slammed open. "Frederick..."

"What's the rush?"

Getting up, Frederick glared at Chet. He gestured for the man to step in and poured him a drink.

Chet closed the door and said, unable to hide his excitement, "Frederick, we've won the bid for the West City!"

The outburst made Frederick spill some water. "What?"

"The West City bid. We won it with 12.8 billion dollars! It went smoothly without a hitch. I've submitted all the necessary paperwork!"

Chet took out a few documents from his briefcase as he spoke and handed them to Frederick.

Frederick took a quick look at Chet, took the documents, and carefully scanned it, occasionally furrowing his brow. "No hiccups?"

Chet nodded. He was puzzled as well.

"It's as we expected. Other than Linke Real Estate Group, no one bade against us after the price went above ten billion! As expected, Pitcher made it to the next round as well, but he just simply put on an act. Jeremy didn't hold us back. He didn't even show up! The bidding went strangely smooth, and there was nothing suspicious. If anything, we overestimated the Linke Real Estate Group! Much cry and little wool..."

They had always been interested in this bid, but they didn't expect that it would be much less than what they had expected. There was no sign of conflict as they had previously thought.

"They made such a big fuss yet there was nothing suspicious in the end? Do you think it's normal?" Frederick drummed his fingers and began to feel a headache.

What's going on? Did they even use poison?
