An extended leave? Was she really about to cut ties with him and walk away from United Realty Corporation? Ludwik could not figure out what was going on in this woman’s head. Whitney had been angry because of Elaine for a long enough time, and now she was still giving him the cold shoulder.
If she would not bend, then fine; he was tired of this, too. He would put down his pride and make the first move. “This bid is crucial. South City is a tourist hotspot; I must secure half of its land. You’ll be my secretary for this bid. In three days, you’re coming with me to South City.”

Without a word, Whitney looked at the hundred–billion–dollar project weighing down on her, sighing silently.
