Chapter 656
Chapter 656 My Husband Still Chose Me
This bidding proposal is written by Wisteria...
Naturally, Avery was well-acquainted with Wisteria, this so-called rival who wasn''t really a rival. The
latter was a cunning woman and had a knack for circling around Cayden.
In fact, Wisteria once went so far as to throw her underwear in Cayden''s car, leading to a
misunderstanding between Avery and him.
Even though Avery had an unfavorable impression of Wisteria, she couldn''t deny thetter''s formidable
work abilities, making her an indispensable right-hand woman to Cayden.
Despite her reservations about Wisteria and not wanting the woman to have too much interaction with
her husband, even if it was purely work-rted, Avery chose to silently endure it all for the sake of
Cayden.
Thankfully, whatever Cayden said seemed to have an effect on Wisteria, and she became more well-
behaved recently, causing fewer problems.
As Avery carefully went through Wisteria''s bid proposal, her eyebrows began to furrow slightly.
She called Tina through the internal line and said, “Tina, could you please ask Ms. Summers toe
to the CEO''s office?”
“Just a moment,” Tinaplied and headed to Wisteria''s office to ry the message that the acting
CEO would like to see her.
Meanwhile, Wisteria was on the verge of a breakdown.
Ever since she heard the news of Cayden''s mishap, she had been leftpletely bewildered.
These past few days, she had been constantly shedding tears, unable to believe the fact that Cayden
had passed away.
Overwhelmed with despair, she felt like she was trapped in a painful abyss from which she could not
extricate herself.
Being someone who always took great care of her appearance, she no longer had the heart to dress
up due to Cayden''s absence.
Once a radiant woman, her eyes were sunken now, and her hair disheveled, as if she had aged ten
years in an instant.
Soon, she followed the secretary into the CEO''s office.

Upon seeing Avery sitting in the seat that belonged to Cayden, examining the bid proposal, a sh of
resentment, jealousy, and mostly contempt flickered in Wisteria''s eyes.
“Mrs. Moore, Ms. Summers has arrived. If you don''t need anything else, I''ll get back to my work now,”
Tina informed before ushering Wisteria into the CEO''s office. After greeting Avery, Tina headed back to
her own office.
“Mrs. Moore, what can I do for you?” Even though Wisteria hid her emotions well, the deep-seated
resentment she held toward Avery, coupled with the fact that there were only the two of them in the
CEO''s office allowed her to speak without much restraint.
Naturally, Avery knew Wisteria''s true feelings well.
Nheless, she just found the whole scenario amusing.
After all, Wisteria was just Cayden''s work partner, and despite her feelings for him, he had always
treated her with indifference. Avery, on the other hand, knew that she was the one who held the title of
Cayden''s wife.
This woman not only covets my husband but also has the audacity to show such a resentful expression
toward me, Cayden''s legal wife?
Nevertheless, Avery figured it was not the time to dwell on such matters.
She spread the bidding documents in front of Wisteria and asked, “Ms. Summers, did you write this
bidding proposal?”
Wisteria responded coldly, “Mrs. Moore, didn''t you notice the signature at the end of the bidding
proposal? Or perhaps your vision has deteriorated at such a young age?”
She couldn''t help but look down on the woman before her. In her eyes, Avery was like a weak and
fragile flower that could only thrive when clinging to a man''s support. Without a man''s protection, even
the slightest storm would likely cause Avery to wither away.
How could a woman like her possibly stand shoulder-to-shoulder with such an outstanding man like
Cayden Moore? Yet, it''s this very woman, with her innocent face, gentle personality, and seductive
tactics, who managed to win his affection. Not only did she bear his child, but even in his will, she
seemed to be at the forefront of his thoughts. One can only imagine how deeply he must have loved
her to provide her with such generous material security even after his departure.
The thought of that made Wisteria absolutely livid.
Fixing her gaze on Wisteria''s arrogant expression, Avery scoffed lightly and responded to the woman''s
provocation, saying, “Whether my vision is good or not seems to have nothing to do with you, Ms.
Summers. Nevertheless, even if my eyesight were wed, my husband still chose me. Meanwhile, you,
who are blessed with such good eyesight, are still infatuated with him. Oh well, even though my eyes
may not be as sharp as yours, I''m satisfied with my current status. You see, it''s important for people to
know how to be content.”
Avery''s sharp retort stung Wisteria, making thetter clench her teeth in frustration. However,
constrained by her current position, she had to suppress her emotions and replied, “Mrs. Moore, you
didn''t call me here today just to humiliate me, did you? Because if that''s the case, I''m afraid I can''t
oblige!”
“Ms. Summers, your bidding proposal is indeed well-crafted, but there''s one issue that confuses me,”
Avery stated.
She flipped open the bidding document and continued, “Chimera Lake has plenty ofnd, but you
specifically chose this area. Even though the subway was recently extended here, it mainly houses
long-time residents who may be difficult to relocate. Furthermore, thend prices remain inted due to
its proximity to a vocational college. Why did you decide to bid for this particr piece ofnd?”
Wisteria couldn''t help but sneer in her heart at Avery, believing that the woman might bepetent in
taking care of children at home, but when it came to business, she was clearly naive and
inexperienced.
Even so, she maintained a superior demeanor as she exined, “Chimera Lake is going through a
period of rapid development, and the property prices there have skyrocketed from two to three
thousand just three years ago to over ten thousand now, showcasing the immense value of this area.
While there might be more locals residing on thisnd, offering them fairpensation during the
demolition process will easily resolve any issues. Besides, the surrounding schools, transportation,
commercial hubs, and scenic views are all outstanding. These are precisely the aspects that buyers
consider essential. Securing this piece ofnd will undoubtedly provide a significant boost to Trident
Group''s development.”
Avery pointed at the bright red mark on the bidding proposal and paused before speaking, “But our
mainpetitor here is Xenos Group, and you''ve specifically noted that Xenos Group has a strong
background and is fond of using tactics like restricted bidding, tied bids, and aggressive bidding to
secure projects. Ms. Summers, do you really think we have a good chance of winning thisnd?”
With a tone filled with impatience and disdain, Wisteria retorted, “I''m only in charge of nning this
bidding proposal, but it''s up to you to use your abilities to secure thisnd, Mrs. Moore. In the past, Mr.
Moore used to handle all these matters, and with his determination, even the most challenging projects
could be won.”
As she met Wisteria''s contemptuous gaze, Avery could sense the doubt andck of confidence the
I''m sure if Cayden was the one here, Wisteria''s attitude would bepletely different.
Closing the bidding proposal, Avery calmly looked at Wisteria. “Ms. Summers, you don''t need to worry.
I''ll do my best to secure thend in Chimera Lake. You can leave for now. Your proposal still needs
some improvement, so please go and work on it.”
Just then, one of the four secretaries, Susanna, was about to deliver some documents to Avery''s office.
As she pushed the door open and stepped inside, she happened to overhear the conversation between
Avery and Wisteria.
With a dismissive sneer, she ced the documents on the desk and quietly exited the room.
