To be honest, I was starting to have a headache right now. Fixing the bid proposal alone to make it presentable was difficult enough, not to mention the fact that I was clueless about the general situation.
"Ms. Lane?"
A man's voice sounded in my ears. It sounded a little familiar.
I looked up and saw a slightly chubby middle-aged man.
I froze a little, then asked curiously, "You are?"
The man chortled twice and said, "Great wits have short memories. Have you already forgotten me, Ms. Lane? We met last night."
I suddenly remembered and hurriedly got up, saying," I'm really sorry, Mr. Isaac. I drank quite a bit of alcohol last night and was feeling light-headed. I wasn't able t o recall your name in such a short time."
The man chuckled. "You have to remember my name from now on, Ms. Lane. Otherwise, it'll be awkward when we meet next time."
I nodded with a smile. "Definitely."
Mr. Isaac sat on the sofa and looked at the documents i
n my hands, asking faintly, "Are you here for the bidding event too?"
I nodded. "You too, Mr. Isaac?"
Mr. Isaac smiled. "Of course."
Judging from Theo's reaction last night, it was clear that he was not going to make a decision so soon.
Hence, Mr. Isaac thought it was compulsory for him to participate in the bidding event today.
I sat on the sofa, shutting the file and laptop in my hand.
Mr. Isaac saw that and asked with a smile, "Where do you work at, Ms. Lane?"
