Ten minutes later, Leonhart put down the docunt in his hand, and nodded slowly. "Reasonable."
Leonard licked his teeth. "You... Are you praising ?"
Leonhart glanced at him. "The design team's plans are excellent!"
Oh, he praised the design team!
Leonard touched the bridge of his nose angrily, then put his hand on the table. "Dad, you don't even know the background of this real estate company?"
Leonhart didn't hide it, looking down and staring at the docunt on the table. "I sent soone to check, but the other party is clearly prepared, and all information is kept confidential. The only thing I can be sure of is that this project is really appreciated. If this was a public company, there would be no need for a strict arrangent. Several public officials have revealed that the construction project of this real estate company is very valuable for the progress of this city. Therefore, this contract cannot be taken lightly!"
Leonard was surprised by the origin of the other party, and his eyes fell on his docunts. "Then… Do you think we will definitely win this cooperation?"
"No!" Leonhart shook his head slightly and said honestly. "Everyone has always been united in Bandung but the ergence of this real estate company broke this. Of course the other party wouldn't take into account the complex backgrounds of each family, so this bidding is indeed based on strength!"
Leonard faintly heard as he picked up a cigarette case and put one stick in his hand. He then smirked. "I understand that, but I I don't understand why you left such an important thing to ."
"Hmmm..." Leonhart smiled gently, closed the folder, and got up.
Standing in front of the window with his hands behind his back, he said solemnly, "The reason why this bidding was handed over to you is for you to train yourself. As for whether you can win it or not, it really doesn't really matter."
"Even if the Adlers couldn't afford their project, the truth was they were completely capable of developing the real estate on their own. It's just that, in recent years, the stability of our company has beco the main focus, and I don't have much energy to start a new business."
At this ti, Leonard sat sideways on the chair and looked at his back. "If I don't win the bid this ti, would you still let enter the real estate world?"
Leonhart nodded calmly, turned around slowly, and looked at him. "It was just a plan."
Oh, this is really just his father! Can he plunge him into a new challenging world to his advantage? Amazing!
Hearing this, Leonard put his cigarette in the corner of his mouth with a slightly frowning expression. "But I think our chances of winning this bid are great!"
Leonhart raised his eyebrows. "How are you so sure?"
"Two more days is bid opening day, just wait and see!"
...
At eleven o'clock that morning, the docunts were submitted to the Zilion agent as scheduled.
Leonard finally dragged his tired body back to the villa. In the last few days, except for the occasional ti to co back to see llisa, he'd worked most of the ti in his study.
By noon, Leonard went straight to the bedroom to take a shower and went to his father's study to look for llisa.
Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow are weekends. He wants to take this opportunity to accompany her more.
Leonard walked slowly to the door, raising his hand to unbutton his shirt as he walked. After a few steps, the movent in his hands stopped for a mont, and he stared intently at the balcony.
There's soone there!
Leonard narrowed his eyes dangerously. He walked slowly, opening the curtains suddenly, but his brows turned soft. "You don't have any class today?"
Leonard did not expect that llisa was on the balcony of his room at this mont.
She was sitting on a wicker chair on the balcony, her eyes staring blankly at sowhere, not even realizing the man was approaching closer.
Hearing Leonard's sudden voice, llisa's shoulders shook, and she looked back in confusion, "Why are you back?"
This feels so wrong!
Leonard sharply noticed that there was a trace of burden in llisa's dazed expression.
He walked forward, leaned over and supported himself with the arm of the chair. "What is it?"
llisa opened her mouth and shook her head quickly. "It does not matter. Why are you back? Is the bidding process over?"
Did she refuse to tell him her troubles?!
Leonard pursed the corners of his mouth, but didn't speak for a mont.
He looked deeply at lisa, as if to look inside her mind.
After a long ti, llisa was the first to lose!
She turned her head away, her unfocused gaze was on the table. "Did you see it?"
Leonard touched her cold cheek, and said softly. "llisa, haven't we agreed before? We have to be honest with each other."
llisa took a sharp breath, her cheeks almost transparent. "Rember the person I told you earlier?"
"The one who saved you?"
llisa nodded slowly. "Well, last night, I got a call from an unknown number and apparently it was him."
"What did he say?" Leonard's expression grew colder.
lissa raised her eyes and bit her lip tightly. "He only said a few words, and they're 'We haven't seen each other in a long ti, I hope you're doing well!'"
As she told him, llisa could even hear the voice back in her ears. Although it had changed, the voice was still impressive.
Leonard was silent for a few seconds, his expression turned very serious. "What does he want to do? Did he say anything else?"
llisa slowed down without hiding. "Nothing else, he just said hello, and hung up. I know him well, and he never does anything useless. He suddenly called out to , it felt like he was hiding near , watching silently."
Due to that inexplicable greeting, llisa's heart beca more and more uncertain.
At this mont, Leonard thought a little, and said that he didn't agree. "Not everyone can get into the Adlers' house, he might not be here!"
"I don't think he's in the Adler family myself, but I just think… he's most likely in Bandung. In other words, he's still monitoring my current situation very well."
Leonard could not bear to see her so lancholic, and raised his hand to stroke her hair. "No problem, no one can touch you here."
lissa shook her head silently. "Actually, I tried to escape more than once. But wherever I go, he can always track my whereabouts easily."
"When I first arrived in Bandung, he imdiately knew where I was. Now his words still haunt . Based on my estimation, it must not be a coincidence."
"It's okay!" Leonard pulled her into his arms. "Don't mind him. Whatever he wants, I will always be here to protect you."
llisa's heart felt hot, and she lay on Leonard's chest, closing her eyes and sighing heavily.
This unknown potential danger was the one that rendered her most helpless.
She even wished the other party could just let her go with her own life.
lissa gritted her teeth and tried hard to let go of the past mories that flashed through her mind.
Perhaps, the only thing to be grateful for was that now she no longer had to endure it all alone.
She didn't know how long she held onto Leonard's chest. lissa finally adjusted her emotions, and then distanced herself from Leonard. "Have you done your work?"
Leonard nodded and kissed her forehead. "Docunts have been submitted, the bidding will be reopened next Monday and I will take you there!"
