My Fiancé Sent Me To Another Man On Our Wedding Day Chapter 31
Six months after we founded the company, we entered a major bidding competition.
The competing firm was larger and more established. Almost no one thought we stood a chance.
Chloe had been losing sleep for days. “If we don’t land this contract, next quarter is going to be brutal.”
I pushed a cup of coffee toward her.
“Then we’ll land it.”
I worked with the team for two months straight on that proposal.
People told me to ask Conrad for help.
A word from the Hawthorne family would surely carry weight with the client.
I never mentioned it to him.
On the day of the presentation, Conrad drove me to the venue.
I teased him, “Not coming in to cheer me on?”
“Didn’t someone tell me she wanted to do this on her own?” he asked with a smile.
“You really are a good listener.”
Conrad leaned in and straightened my collar.
“If you win, I’ll be the first one to celebrate with you.”
“And if you lose, I’ll be right here to take you home.”
Hearing that, my nerves vanished.
