After Miranda finished speaking, she turned around and headed toward the entrance.
rence’s mind went nk. He raised his head and shouted sonorously, “Miranda Murphy!”
Miranda’s petite body shook, and she paused mid-stride.
As far as she was concerned, rence had never once yelled at her.
Over their three years of marriage, rence had always been subservient to her. He had not even raised his voice when speaking to her.
“Y-You…” Miranda turned her head around in surprise.
rence’s eyes were bloodshot. He said, “When have you ever looked into my eyes?
“I send you to work and pick you up from work.
“In your eyes, I know that I’m just a loser, a son-inw married into your family.
“I’m nothing!
“But, as a man, I’ve my own dignity. I don’t mind if you misunderstand me. However, you should not look down upon me, nor belittle me!
“You want to file for a divorce, right?
“That is fine.
“But you have to give me onest chance. If I’m able to nail down the contract for the Sunshine District project and you still insist on divorcing me, I’ll say no more.
rence finished his words in one breath. Then, he breathed in and out heavily and nervously looked at Miranda.
Miranda froze. This was her first time seeing rence so worked up.
Miranda fell silent for two minutes. She struggled with herself for a while.
After all, rence was still her official husband. Over the past three years, he had been taking care of her.
Miranda was a soft-hearted person with a sharp tongue. Otherwise, she would not have enrolled rence in adult education sses.
“Alright.”
In the end, Miranda promised him. “I’ll find a way to gather the ten million dors entrance fee. The bidding starts tomorrow. You don’t have the slightest knowledge about property development, so the chance is rtively low…
“You may go back first. I’ll take a trip down to mypany.”
Miranda sounded cold. She shook her head and left the hall.
Miranda was already nowhere to be found the moment rence came out. Apparently, she had called a cab.
rence drove home. On the way, he called Emmett.
“Young Master.”
“Emmett, I want to go for a bid.” rence exined everything about the bid for the Sunshine District project to him.
After Emmett finished hearing his full story, he smiled faintly and said, “Young Master, this is just a piece of cake. Ourpany could even get our hands on Burj Dubai, the White House, Buckingham Pce, the Eiffel Tower, and so on and so forth, let alone a small ce like Mediterranean City. I could get aplete proposal ready for the Sunshine District project within thirty minutes.”
“Good.” rence nodded.
After that, he hung up.
After half an hour, a document was delivered to rence’s mobile phone.
asionally, Miranda worked from home. So, her house was equipped with aputer and printer.
rence printed the documents for the bid using the printer at home.
“Young Master, don’t worry. The proposal is prepared by the world’s best property development team. The probability of a proposal better than this would be less than 0.001% in the world,” Emmett smiled as he exined.
“Thanks for your hard work, Emmett,” rence nodded in satisfaction.
“It’s my pleasure to offer my service to you and your family, Young Master.” Emmett was caught by surprise upon hearing his words.
rence casually chatted with him for a while before he hung up.
At nine o’clock in the evening, Miranda returned home.
“Dear, this is my proposal. Please take a look. The dishes are ready. They are kept warm in the pot. I’ll get them for you.” rence handed his proposal over to Miranda while handing her a pair of slippers.
Miranda cast a cold nce at rence. She did not even bother to take the proposal from him.
“Take the meal on your own. I’ve already had mine in the office.”
“Dear, my proposal…”
“What proposal are you talking about?! rence, you really didn’t have the slightest self-awareness, do you?! Do you have any knowledge about the property development industry? I’ve cracked my head in the office throughout the night and have not evene up with one! How long have you been at home since you came back? Could you reallye up with a proposal?!” Miranda cast a cold nce at rence in disdain.
She did not even bother to give another look at rence’s proposal.
“Dear, listen to me…” rence was about to exin.
“Enough! You don’t have to exin anymore.” Miranda shook her hand impatiently.
She walked into the study room and sat down before theputer.
She switched on theputer.
“I’ve sought help from William and managed to borrow ten million dors from him. Tomorrow, I’ll give it a try. You just follow me, and keep quiet by then.” Miranda plugged in the USB sh drive and began to work.
rence said, “Dear, you don’t have to borrow the money from William. I could fork out ten million dors.”
rence only needed to say the word, and Emmett could easily bring ten million dors over to them. Wasn’t that as simple as ABC?
“You could fork out the money? How are you going toe up with that money? rence, where did you get the money from?! I beg you, stop blowing hot air. I’ve truly had enough of all this!” Miranda turned her head around and red at rence furiously. She nearly exploded.
“Do you know how stressed out I am now?
“I’ve had to borrow ten million dors from others because of you!
“I’ve to burn the midnight oil toe up with the proposal for the bid because of your stubbornness!
“rence, could you please stop bothering me?! I beg you, please get as far away from me as possible…”
rence did not know what to say when he saw Miranda’s current state.
So, he took his bidding proposal, turned around, and walked out of the study room.
The moment rence stepped out of the study room, Miranda’s voice was heard. “Don’t bother me tonight. I’ll give my all toplete the bidding proposal. However, I do earnestly hope that you would keep your promise. If we lose in the bid, we’ll divorce!”
