Chapter 241 The Heart That Forever Beats For You
After reading the message, Courtney laughed and swiftly replied, ‘Gale deserves it. You, on the other hand, should probably gird your loins.’
Gale had a tendency to skip on the important details whenever he gave out secondhand information. It seemed as if nothing good could ever emerge from giving him the information in the first place—he was a born troublemaker.
As amused as she was by that thought, she knew that whatever happened today had nothing to do with his ineptitude and Alexander was aware of it as well. He had never encountered a situation in which he was forced to admit his mistakes and he simply needed an outlet for the resentment that he felt.
At the end of the day, Courtney knew better than to expect an apology from him.
The next day, she returned to Melrose City with the tender notice for Sakura Group in hand. Tobias’ intervention had led her to abandon all prospects of a private partnership, so she could only hope to collaborate with Sakura Group through normal means hence her attendance at the tender.
She showed Bill the requirements that they would need to comply with in order to submit a valid tender and he nodded after he read through them.
“It wouldn’t be hard to come up with a design for the uniforms and we are able to meet all the other requirements,” he responded. “As long as no one tries to mess things up for us, we should be able to succeed in the tender.”
“Then, I shall thank you in advance,” Courtney said.
“Don’t worry about it.” He gave her a dismissive wave before he put the measuring tape that he was holding away. He appeared to have recalled something. “Oh, right. When is Cameron leaving?”
“The day after tomorrow,” she answered after counting the days in her head. “She said she would leave at the end of the month, which would be the day after tomorrow. Are you going to see her off?”
“No,” Bill replied with an air of finality. “Tell her to come back as soon as she recovers from her illness. She might even make it in time to compete against me for the position of chief designer. If she can’t make it back before that, then I guess she’ll just have to settle as my assistant when she returns.”
Courtney smiled and shook her head in mock exasperation before curiously eyeing Bill with a mischievous grin. “Bill, is it true that you used to pine for Cameron when the both of you were studying in St York University?”
“What? Who said that?” he sputtered as his face turned crimson and he glared at her while denying vehemently. “Don’t be ridiculous. Why would I pine for someone as crazy as her?”
