Chapter 166
Seeing Bethany. Fave calmed down slightly and affectionately took her harut “Beth, you’re a lilever Without you, I’d be driven mad by these idiots. You’ve probably learned a lot about management while studying abroad. We’ll rely on your help a lot here in the future ”
Bethany had been waiting for this moment!
She smiled bashfully, saying, “Not really, I just know a little bit. But Auntie Faye, rest assured that I’ll do my best to assist you.”
Initially, Faye’s arrangement for Bethany at the company was just a courteous gesture, giving her a vacant managerial position. However, in just one afternoon, Bethany had managed to organize the previously disorganized departments, systemizing their structure and operations. Now, Faye had complete trust in Bethany and assigned two more departments for her to manage.
Three days later, the bidding event for the land in the western suburbs was scheduled.
Faye left Bethany at the Freeman Group to handle the company affairs and attended the event with Erin.
Standing at the entrance, they exchanged pleasantries with high–ranking executives from other bidding companies. After briefly scanning through all the attending companies, Faye felt even more confident about winning the bid and was practically on cloud nine.
They suddenly heard a commotion behind them as they were about to enter. Turning around, they saw a sleek silver–gray Maybach pulling up right in front of them.
The passenger door swung open, revealing a woman dressed in a rose–colored tailored mini dress, exuding simplicity and elegance. Underneath her delicate makeup, her breathtaking beauty left Faye and Erin in awe.
It was Sheena! That bitch!
Erin glared at Sheena and whispered to Faye, “Mom, why would she come to an event like this?
Faye shook her head. She could not quite figure it out either, but the incident from a few days ago at the Moore Group’s event was still fresh in her memory.
Erin seemed to share her thoughts and added, “Could it be that this bitch knows we’re going to win the bid today and deliberately came to stir up trouble?”
With that in mind, they approached Sheena as she closed her car door. When she turned around, Faye and Erin blocked her with warm smiles, seemingly friendly to onlookers.
Once the attention from around them subsided, Erin could not hold back and hissed, “Why can’t you leave us alone? Are you letting the previous incidents get to your head?”
Sheena covered her mouth, gracefully smiling. “Oh? So, you can participate in the bid, but I can’t?”
Erin was amused, thinking that she had heard the funniest joke. “You? Do you think you can
bid for the land in the western suburbs? Am I hearing correctly?”
Then, Erin glanced at Faye, who was also entertained by Sheena’s statement. “Does Howard really have the power to manipulate this bidding just for you? Do you even have the money to buy it?”
Howard’s influence in the entertainment industry was terrifying. That was a widely known fact. However, his involvement in the real estate business seemed non–existent.
Sheena maintained her smile, exuding an air of elegance and composure.
Before she could explain, the driver’s door of the Maybach opened.
“What a coincidence! I’m also interested in this bidding event.”
A dashing young man in a suit stepped out from the driver’s side, walking around the front of the car to stand beside Sheena,
The owner of the arrogant voice was… Skye!
Faye was taken aback, wondering why Skye would be there too.
Could it be that the Zimmer family was also interested in this piece of land in the western suburbs?
$, fave trad not ween the Flumnes tamily’s name on the participant fit beforehand. If Her dimnes faintly was truly interested in this land, this hidding might be challenging”
Toca expr–stdem turned dark, but Erin’s focus was entirely different
huna, som te pestering Eli and seem pretty cozy with Mr. Lawson. Yet, it looks like your relationship with Mr. Zimmer isn’t exactly that simple either!”
Erin was consumed by jealousy at the thought of Skye bringing Sheena to the Moore family’s banquet and to this bidding event.
“Dors Howard know about your three–timing behavior?”
sheena had not even said anything when Skye raised an eyebrow and scoffed. “You’re so ugly that I can’t even stand to look at you, and your voice is equally unpleasant. Naturally, you wouldn’t understand how appealing Sheena is.”
“You!”
Skye was young and hot–headed, and he always had a sharp tongue for the people he disliked.
Erin’s face turned red with anger. She had always been confident with her looks, always being praised and admired wherever she went.
