Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom

"This is a crucial project, the biggest one in Bourdamun so far. I hope to work on it together with Ms. Chloe." He looked at me, his excitement hard to contain.

I could tell he was the enthusiastic type. They might have fallen for his pitch, but not me.

"Well, Ms. Chloe, if I secure the project, I can give you full control and let Tanum Corporation handle the construction. After all, I have great confidence in Tanum Corporation's credentials!"

I smiled. "Jeremiah, why are you so confident you'll get the project? And by partnership, are you referring to the construction team? After our upgrade, Tanum Corporation won't be taking on projects like this anymore!"

"Oh, Ms. Chloe, do you have to be so absolute? The size of the project in Bourdamun speaks for itself. After all, it's our project. We don't let others have a share in the profits." He grinned slyly, looking like he was up to something.

"Besides, I'm certain I can secure the project. We can discuss the details first. Once it's settled on my end, we can sign the contract on your end!"

"Are you trying to scam me?" I told Jeremiah bluntly. "I never go into battle unprepared, especially not with someone like you, trying to negotiate with no documents. I'm sorry. Although I am interested in the Bourdamun project, not in this manner of discussion!"

I glanced at the clock. "I'm afraid our time is up, Jeremiah."

"Ms. Chloe... Look at you..."

I stood up, picked up the folder on my desk, and headed towards the door. "I'm sorry, I have a meeting to attend. Let me walk you out."
