Chapter 969


    | was a little speechless. "Mr. Milton, why are you ying with fire? You had a proposal prepared in advance, then me to make


    another one. Now that it''s almost time to present it, you''ve given me yet another new one. Do you think | can memorize


    everything within a few minutes?"


    He said calmly, "You won''t know unless you try."


    | had nothing more to say.


    | red at him in resentment. | really didn''t want to talk to him anymore. | looked down at the auction n and was particrly


    surprised.


    | looked at him, stunned and asked, "Did you do this? Or Linda?"


    He nced at me but ignored my question. "It''s your turn next."


    | pursed my lips and went back to studying it carefully. | had no choice but to do my best now.


    "The next bid is from the Milton Group. Please get ready," said the emcee on stage.


    | couldn''t help but panic a little. The new proposal looked good, but I''m not prepared enough. It was toost minute.


    | broke out into cold sweat, and my hands started to shake uncontrobly.


    Out of the blue, arge hand suddenly covered mine. | blinked at it fora moment then looked up into Sebastian''s dark eyes.


    The man said indifferently, probably in an attempt to console me, "Don''t be nervous. Even if the bid fails, you can still continue to


    work for the Milton Group."


    | pursed my lips and red at him before | pulled my hand away. "Oh please, don''t pretend to be merciful now. Please just let me


    know in advance next time?"


    He smiled charmingly, his voice clear, "Okay, I''ll inform you in advance."


    | wanted to punch the smile off of his face. | might''ve if it weren''t for where | was right then.


    Sensing someone looking at me, | sneaked a peek over my shoulder and started.


    Aman dressed in ck, who | had not noticed earlier, was openly staring at us from not too far away. His eyes were gloomy and


    | shivered at the coldness in his gaze as he looked at the both of us.


    Needless to say, he''d definitely misunderstood and thought that there was something between Sebastian and me.


    "| think that he saw everything!" Sebastian said in a low voice. "Do you think that he will reject our bid outright because he''s


    mad?"


    | pressed my lips together and inhaled deeply. | shook off my anger and said as calmly as possible, "Don''t worry, Hendrix isn''t


    unreasonable like you."


    Sebastian had been facing that way the whole time. It was obvious that he''d grabbed my hand on purpose just so Hendrix would


    see it. That sneaky scoundrel!


    After the introduction, there was a smattering round of apuse from the audience.


    It''s my turn now!


    | got up and walked up to the stage. Hendrix stood by the table at the edge, staring at me with a cold and sharp gaze.


    Knowing that he was definitely pissed, | sighed slightly, went on stage, and handed the Powerpoint slides from Sebastian to the


    staff.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner.


    Then | started my presentation,


    "Hello, everyone. I''m Arianna, the
