Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 825 I Need To Talk To You Alone

The entire venue was already brimming with attendees half an hour before the bidding conference commenced, and the reporters and media from across Highside were densely packed in the back.

It was evident that the New Coast project, developed by Pearson Group, had captured the attention and interest of the public.

Someone among the reporters asked, "I heard President Pearson will be attending this bidding conference, is that true?"

Someone else inquired after a brief moment of silence, "Which President Pearson?"

It was widely known that there were two President Pearsons in Pearson Group. One of them had departed while the other was currently in charge.

Whichever President Pearson showed up at the bidding conference would undoubtedly make it a lot more interesting.

It could even be chaotic if it was the former who would be attending the event.

If it was the latter who showed up, it wouldn't surprise as many as the former would have because it made sense for him to be involved in such a gigantic project personally, and the reporters would still have more than enough material for creating content nonetheless.

The journalist who started asking the first question answered, "I mean Aidan Pearson. Who else? Haven't you heard?"

"Of course, I've heard some rumors, but I thought they seemed far-fetched. Didn't he leave Pearson Group? Why would he attend this bidding conference?"

"He is now directly responsible for Crossley Group even though he had left Pearson Group. Moreover, he has control over Complex Group and Southwest Group. Do you think he would pass up the opportunity of getting the New Coast project?"

A collective gasp spread through the crowd after the reporter said that.

Whether it was Crossley Group which was trying to make a huge comeback, or the rapidly growing Complex Group and Southwest Group which already had renowned international presences and economic prowess, it made sense for all of them to compete for a substantial project to fulfill their ambitions.

Any one of them would be enough to rival Pearson Group for the New Coast project, let alone three.

The reporters went through the hundreds of companies participating in the bidding conference, and they could already envision their imminent defeats.

Judging by Aidan's business method, there was no way he would leave empty-handed. Besides, he had never left even a single fraction for others when it came to something he desired.

Moreover, there had always been rumors circulating about the connection between Aidan benefiting directly from Justin Pearson's car accident.
