A Second Chance at Forever

Chapter 86

When she woke up, Eleanor thought it was so ridiculous that she could have such a dream.

She raised her hand to touch her flushed face and warm, red lips.

Maybe it was because she accidentally kissed his face yesterday that she had such an embarrassing dream. She had been with him for five years, always being possessed by him like crazy, and had become accustomed to his touch. Now she probably hadn’t gotten used to it yet, and it should be okay after some time.

As she comforted herself, Jason’s call suddenly came in.

She picked up her cellphone and answered, “Mr. Clowers, what’s up?”

Jason felt a little unsettled when he heard her serious tone.

But he quickly pulled himself together and replied, “Ms. Shultz, Colter won’t be around today. Can you please come with me to the bidding meeting?”

Colter, who was always by Jason’s side, was actually not there?

Eleanor had some doubts in her heart but still agreed.

After the bidding meeting, he should be going back to B City.

She was even a little happy, and said, “Wait for me.”

Was it that exciting? Jason was infected by her mood and couldn’t help but smile, “Don’t worry, the bidding meeting doesn’t start until ten o’clock, there’s still plenty of time.”

Eleanor glanced at the time. It was seven in the morning, and she had woken up so early this time. Was it because of the dream?

Thinking of the dream, Eleanor’s face turned red again, and she said okay before hanging up the phone.

She had fallen asleep last night without checking her WhatsApp, worried that Hailey had sent her a message, so she hurriedly opened it to check.

Hailey had sent her a few landscape photos and several short videos.

After watching them all, Eleanor replied to Hailey.

After that, she unconsciously looked at the profile picture that was squeezed to the bottom of the WhatsApp.

That picture was blank, just like the mysterious Mr. Law himself.

She opened Mr. Law’s account, and it was still at the message which she had replied.

From then on, Mr. Law didn’t send her any more messages nor call her..

Eleanor was puzzled. That day, he had frantically made hundreds of calls to her. How come when she replied to his message, he didn’t bother with her anymore?

After a few seconds of doubt, she put down her phone. It was better for Mr. Law not to harass her, so she could catch her breath.

With great effort, she got up, get dressed, and took her medicine on time. Then she called a someone and sent away the expensive dresses, shoes, and other items Jason had bought her yesterday.

In fact, she could give them directly to Jason, but that would require talking to him more, so it was better to just use the express delivery service.

After sending the packages, she took her bag and went to the Clowers Group’s branch office.

The bidding meeting in the west of the city was critical for the Clowers Group’s development in A City, and everyone in the company took it seriously.

The whole branch was incredibly busy. Jason was going over the slides with the executives in the meeting room.

It wasn’t until nine o’clock that everyone came out of the meeting room.

Eleanor temporarily replaced Colter as Jason’s assistant and was able to enter the bidding venue.

The bidding was held at the Laurence Group’s office park. As soon as the car entered the park, everyone felt like stepping into a futuristic world.

The modern high–tech buildings, creative landscape environment, and highly guaranteed security system all showcased the Laurence Group’s wealth and status.

However, for a family like the Laurence Group, which had repeatedly made it onto the list of fortunes, this was just a small part of

their wealth.

It was said that the Laurence Group had branches like this all over the world. Their business covered a wide range of fields, with real estate being only a small part of it.

The Laurence Group’s most outstanding main business were intelligent development and aerospace research. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

A company like the Laurence Group, which led the future of innovation, was an unattainable existence for other companies.

When Eleanor witnessed the formidable strength of the Laurence Group with her own eyes, she realized how insignificant she

was.

She had even once deluded herself into thinking that Bernard would marry her, but now she felt that she was really ridiculous.

How could a man with such a strong background and power possibly marry a woman like her?

It wasn’t until this moment that she realized that she and Bernard were worlds apart.

Her little hope for him, in the face of this shocking spectacle, had completely shattered.
