Comeback Of The Adored Heiress

Chapter 1269:

“Yeah, this is ridiculous. Let’s just wait a while longer. Even the Welch and Perkins Groups are waiting here with us.”

“Speaking of the Welch Group, they’ve had nothing but bad luck. The project in the west of Estresa is a gold mine, but they botched it so badly it cost someone their life. Now that the government is reevaluating partnerships, it’s obvious they’re looking for new players. Maybe we’ll get a shot at it this time.”

“If you ask me, the one with the best odds of securing the lion’s share is Aldwin. His daughter’s been getting pretty cozy with the CEO of Homelight Enterprise…”

From the moment Aldwin and his subordinate had taken their seats, they exuded an air of unshakable confidence. Across from them sat Healy and his secretary.

Young, ambitious, and having been suppressed by the Perkins family more times than he cared to count, Healy was determined to turn the tide. Had it not been for Madisyn’s guidance, he might have blamed himself entirely for the recent failure, convinced he had failed to handle the residents’ resettlement properly. He never would have uncovered the truth—that someone had been pulling the strings all along. And that someone was none other than the man sitting beside Aldwin at this very moment.
