Please Let Me Go novel Chapter 115

This piece of land was the grand finale of the day.

And this time, 30 companies submitted their own bids.

Antonio had been in business circle for years, but this time he inexplicably felt nervous.

He was confident about the price he proposed, but this land was too important. Antonio estimated, if he could successfully have this land and after his careful planning and development, this land would certainly create billions of interests for the Baron Group in a few years.

In the face of such huge interests, it was no wonder that Antonio felt nervous.

Time passed second by second, Antonio got increasingly nervous. He did not notice Adelaide sitting beside him showed a smile.

It was a smile of a plot about to succeed.

??Antonio, you never thought you will lose today's bidding, right???

In fact, Adelaide knew that there was such a bid by chance in the other day.

Although Adelaide did not understand well about business, she had studied in college and knew a few about bidding.

When knowing Antonio had been putting painstaking effort for a long time for this bid, Adelaide decided to destroy Antonio??s bid!

A cold-blooded man like him had no claim to victory.

That day, Adelaide went to Antonio's office at lunch time. When she got there, Antonio had just gone to dinner.

She had been seen entering his office, but she was his wife, so no one took it seriously.

In his office, she searched for a long time before she found the tender.

During the period, she was in fear that Antonio would suddenly come in, but fortunately nothing happened.

She opened the tender and saw the number she wanted to see, but just then there was the sound of shoes stamping on the floor outside the door.

Adelaide quickly put the tender back to the lowest drawer, and then calmly came to the window and looked outside.

After taking a few deep breaths, she completely calmed down. Antonio was surprised to see Adelaide in his office.

After all, they had bad relationship. He did not know why Adelaide would appear in his office. Did she forgive him?

"What are you doing here??? Antonio came to Adelaide.

"Oh, you still have the mood to have meal? Was your conscience eaten by a dog?" Adelaide said with her eyes widened and then left.

Antonio stayed on the spot. This woman was to say this after she waited for him in his office for this long?

He looked out of the window. The world outside was so noisy that his heart couldn't keep quiet.

Maybe Adelaide was stimulated by that sentence, but it was all just a misunderstanding.

These days, when he thought of that day, Antonio's heart was full of regret. How could he be so stupid as to say that?

Now no matter how he explained, Adelaide did not want to believe him, and just now, she even did not give him a chance to explain.

After Adelaide left the Baron Group, she immediately contacted Alvin.

Alvin had a bad relationship with Antonio. Adelaide believed that, as long as she told him the information, he would have a way to let Antonio fail to win the bid.

Antonio had always been proud, Adelaide would like to see what would Antonio look like if he fail.

Finally, it was the moment to announce the results.

"The third and final piece of listed land today was acquired by the Sunrise Company with 3.61 billion." The host's face kept an unchangeable smile, ??The bidding ended officially, the next is the reception time. I hope you have a good time."

With that, the host retreated into the background.

The lights of the clubhouse began to shine, and the drinks and desserts were pushed out with the dining car.

Antonio sat in his seat, with his expression calm.

What an unexpected failure. Antonio pressed his temple with his hand. For a long time, he smiled helplessly at Adelaide. "I lost, but it doesn't matter, let's go dancing."

Antonio was calm on surface, but actually his heart was now bleeding.

Since getting the news two months ago that the land would be up for auction, he had been getting various connections and negotiating with company executives, and it even was on the company's future map.

But now, by just a million yuan, he lost to the Sunrise Company.

It was...

In the business circle for so long, Antonio had once failed too, but it was the first time he failed like this.

It was conceivable that the Sunrise Company must have had the information, otherwise how could it just happen to be a million yuan higher than his offer?

One million higher was clearly mocking him!

Antonio could accept defeat, but he could never accept betrayal.

Almost no one knew about this offer, but only a few people around him.

And this person had free access to his office.

There must be an informer in the company, but Antonio was not sure who the informer was.

He trusted his assistant, Oscar, but who else could get free access to his office?

"I have other things to deal with. Excuse me." Adelaide slightly felt disappointed since she did not see??s Antonio distraught look.

She knew that Antonio would swallow his own bitter and that this land was important to him.

Now this defeated man was still calm in front of her. All the pain was buried in between his eyebrows.

At this moment, Adelaide unexpectedly felt regretful.

No, she must not have such emotions! It didn??t matter a scumbag like him suffered.

Adelaide said to herself in her mind.

She didn't want to stay any longer. She just wanted to get out of the place as soon as possible.

So, with those words, she turned and left.

Antonio did not stop her, but quietly watched her back.

Suddenly, Antonio felt that this scene was familiar. A few days ago, it seemed to be exactly the same scene in his office.
