Gorgeous Couple’s Sweet Love novel Chapter 120

Kayla handed me the documents and explained, "In fact, Mr. Shears set up two branch companies of our company. And the two branches are fundamentally different from us in respect to the business. I wanted to tell you back then, but Mr. Shears told me not to trouble since you were pregnant."

The Mr. Shears Kayla referred to was Joel.

Puzzled, I asked, "What business are these branches involved in?"

"Construction and exporting." Kayla explained softly, "The latter one is doing a fairly good job but the former one is in bidding for a Weier Group's projects. There are a lot of much bigger companies in it, and our chance is... rather small."

In bidding for Weier's project?

I knew that our chance was small. But I'd heard that it was Laurelie's father, Stanley Weier, who was running the Weier Group.

He was a decisive man who gave no favor to anyone.

He'd only give opportunities to whom he deemed worthy.

Frowning, I asked, "What other companies are in the bidding?"

Kayla explained, "Some foreign companies as well as the Dunns, Heaneys, and the Solanges."

Kayla was right. At this time, we barely stood a chance. But I didn't want the Dunns, Heaneys, and the Solanges to win without even putting up a fight.

"Let's make a bid," I said to Kayla.

Kayla was stunned and said, "Okay." Then she handed me a bank card and said, "Ms. Shears, this is the money I borrowed from you before. Now I'm going to return it to you with interest. Once... Thank you for helping me when I was in trouble. You even gave me such a well-paid job."

I took the card and said, "Well, go to work."

Kayla didn't need pity. Everyone had his or her own dignity. I wouldn't refuse the card just because she helped me with the company. I had other ways to pay her back for that, more respectful ways.

I went through the operation of the company in the afternoon and learned that the revenue rate reached 67%, a stunningly high figure.

The appraisement of the company had already reached over 100 million dollars.

Although it was not a lot of money, it was a great encouragement to the company's employees and me. I then reviewed the plan Joel made for the next six months. The company was about to invest three hundred million dollars in real estate and the entertainment industry.

But after I came back, Joel gave full control of the company to me, and he would not intervene in the affairs of the company anymore unless he had no choice.

After everyone got off work, I took the car key which was given to me before by Joel and went to the bar according to the agreement.

September once said that she needed one month. After a month, she would give the child to Joel, but after two months, she still couldn't bear to give Neil to Joel.

September was in a mess when I arrived at the bar. She looked at me and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you in seven months."

I took the wineglass from her with a frown and blamed her, "You clearly know that you can't drink wine! September, what on earth are you thinking?"

"It's a done deal, anyway. I'd rather live as I want to." September's face was pale and her vision was blurred. She looked at me for a long time before she said with a smile,

"You've lost a lot of weight."

I looked at her gray eyes, and there was no color in them. I felt a little strange and asked in shock, "Your eyes..."

September said with a smile, "It's very difficult to see anything clearly recently. I'm afraid I have to give Neil to Joel soon."

I didn't know what to say. An insuppressible sadness welled up in my heart. It seemed that it was because I had experienced a lot of ups and downs, I actually said calmly, "You promised me that after giving birth, you would cooperate with the doctor's treatment."

"Only if it actually does something." September said in a faint tone, "I have no regrets anymore after having Neil in my life. Even if I want to see him grow up, I know I can't."

September stood up with the help of my arm and asked with a smile, "Could you send me home? I want to go home and stay with Neil."

I helped September leave, but when I bumped into someone at the door of the bar, I whispered and apologized, but I was stopped by an arm. I looked up and bumped into a pair of deep and dark eyes.

His eyes were cold but burning with an inexplicable emotion.

I said faintly, "Sir, excuse me."

He pursed his lips and looked at me in silence. His slightly squinted eyes were chilling and depressing as if he was looking at a prey.

On the side, when Sean saw September completely drunk, he anxiously said, "Penta, get out of the way. Come on."

Benjamin kept his hands in his pockets. The slender body bent and looked at me with cold eyes.

We hadn't seen each other for half a year, and there was nothing but a cold and heartless look at me. It was he who did the wrong thing half a year ago. What the hell did he want now?

When I was thinking, Benjamin suddenly turned sideways and made way for me. I helped September to leave decisively.

Back at the Jenkins family's home, the two servants took over September from my hands. I asked September, "Where is the child?"

The maid replied, "He's on the second floor and has just fallen asleep."
