Shrouded Affections Winning Back My CEO Wife

Chapter 313

Chapter 313:

The Ferguson family was not known for playing games.

Therefore, if Eileen aimed to establish her presence within Ferguson Group, she needed a significant project, and the Walsh family’s project seemed ideal.

This period gave her the chance to truly rejuvenate and gather her strength.

Although she occasionally dealt with minor issues at the branch company, her main focus remained on studying the details of the Walsh family’s project.

Meanwhile, Zola was also actively pursuing the same project.

With Kian’s involvement, she had managed to secure several private meetings with Leland.

However, each encounter with Leland resulted in her being taken advantage of, and despite her sacrifices, she still failed to secure the project.

Left with no other option, Zola sought Bryan’s help once more. She confronted him outside his office after work, her face tense with frustration.

“You can’t just completely detach yourself from everything now that I’m handling Apex Group’s operations,” she protested, stretching her arms across the hallway to block Bryan’s path. “It was no small feat to snag this project from Leland, but with you on board, we can definitely pull it off!”

“And why exactly should I help you?” Bryan asked, his tone carrying a hint of challenge.

Zola’s eyes flashed with urgency. “Apex Group belongs to you too, doesn’t it? How can you even frame this as helping me?”

“If it’s mine, then it’s none of your business what I do with it,” Bryan replied coldly as he walked around her to press the elevator button.

Driven by desperation, Zola stepped in front of the elevator doors, blocking his way.

“I can’t keep this up much longer,” she said, her voice strained. “We have, at most, two more months before the Walsh family project moves into launch preparations. I can stall for two months, max. After that, you’ll need to step in so we can secure the project together, okay?”
