Echoes of Unrequited Love

Chapter 184

Looking at the man’s knuckles turning white, I knew he was really ticked off.

Usually, he only does that when he’s biting his tongue and holding back.

I wasn’t about to argue, but I couldn’t come up with a good line to defend myself either, so I just stood there like a bump on a log.

But Hogan seemed to still have a bee in his bonnet, and when his gaze bore into me again, I heard him ask, “So, what’s Ms. March planning to do next?”

Having no idea how Hogan circled back to this topic, I responded, “After we sign the contract, the project goes on naturally.”

“Is that so? I beg to differ.” Hogan looked away and talked to himself, “Ms. March, you’ve played your cards right. With the support of the Temple family’s boy, you can not only complete the project but also take the reins; if you play your cards right, you might even snag a new investor. It’s like hitting the trifecta.”

His gaze hooked onto my face like a claw, and seeing the man’s meaningful look, I let out a wry smile.

Turns out I’m seen as quite the schemer in Hogan’s eyes.

Oh well, I’ll take it as a compliment. At this point, what matters is to focus on the task at hand..
