Chapter 27

Chloe agreed so quickly that Connor couldn’t help but feel a twinge of suspicion. But at the moment, he had no way to verify his doubts. Since Chloe had agreed, he kept his word and sent the tender documents to Moncada International.

Meanwhile, Lucas was stuck in yet another company meeting. Half of Moncada International’s dozen or so projects were bleeding money, some with losses through the roof. If they couldn’t snag the resort project, Moncada International might really be in hot water. However, there were thousands of construction firms across the country eyeing this golden goose, and dozens, if not hundreds, were from Riverbrook. It looked next to impossible to land the project—especially since Sartori Corporation hadn’t even invited Moncada International to bid.

For days, they’d been meeting from dawn till dusk, brainstorming ways to get Connor to change his mind, even digging into his personal preferences. But what could they offer a guy who seemed to have it all?

Suddenly, the secretary burst in, clutching a laptop, her face lit with excitement. “Mr. Moncada, Mr. Moncada…”

Irritated, Lucas snapped, “What’s so urgent? Can’t you see we’re in a meeting?”

“Sartori Corporation just sent us a tender document!”

Lucas froze for a second, then jumped up in excitement. “Really? Let me see.”

He checked the email, and sure enough, it was an official tender document from Sartori Corporation. This meant Leading Heights finally had a chance to compete with other construction companies. Lucas breathed a sigh of relief but couldn’t shake his confusion.
