Chapter 1054


    Jordan raised his brows slightly and asked, "Have you drafted out the bid proposal?"


    I nodded, picked up the file on my desk, and handed it to him. "Others took a month to write a bid


    proposal while I took one day. Theo probably won''t even look at it."


    Jordan took the bid proposal and said with a hint of disgust, "This is the worst bid proposal I’ve ever


    read. You broke a new record."


    I pursed my lips, not saying a word.


    In addition to the advice given by Lally, there was nothing reliable about it. Therefore, I knew just


    how bad the bid proposal was. Besides, how could a proposal that was drafted out in a short few


    hours be any good?


    I sighed softly and said slowly, "Fredericks Corporations aren''t too involved in real estate. Theo


    might not choose us."


    Jordan frowned and tossed the bid proposal on the desk, saying to me, "Go and have something to


    eat."


    Why did I think that he did not intend to join the bidding at all? He would not have asked me to do


    last-


    minute work like this otherwise.


    Besides, even though he was not impressed by this horrible bid proposal, he did notment much


    about it either.


    What exactly was he trying to do, then?


    I nced at the time and realized that it was already seven o''clock. I said, "The bidding starts at


    half-past eight. I’ll go to the hotel first. Can you eat out tonight?"


    Jordan pursed his lips. "Take what you need and we''ll go straight to the hotel. We’ll have dinner


    there."


    I froze. "Are you going too?"


    He raised his eyebrows. "Do you suppose you can join the bidding event if I don''t go? Are you


    thinking of relying on your horrible bid proposal? Or perhaps this face of yours?”


    I realized how sharp-tongued this man could be. Although he was a man of few words, his words


    could cause heavy damage.


    When I was done packing, I left thepany with him.


    After getting into the car, Jordan started the car engine and asked ndly, "Did you find out which


    companies are joining the bid?”


    I shook my head. "I didn''t have enough time to do that. I just asked my friend about it and learned


    that a few are joining the bid.”


    Jordan nced mildly at me and said in aining tone, "I really wonder how you used to be


    the president of apany."


    I frowned, feeling a little displeased now.


    Jordan smiled slightly and said without any mercy," With a horribly written bid proposal and zero


    knowledge of ourpetitors, do you really think we''re going there to have fun?"


    I pursed my lips and said in a slightly cold voice, "Mr. Fredericks, it has only been seven hours since


    you told me that we''re participating in a bidding event. Do you think it''s feasible for me to study


    otherpetitors and draft out a good bid proposal at the same time?"


    I continued after a pause, "My IQ is only the standard o f ordinary people. There’s really no way I


    can finish half a month''s workload perfectly in just less than seven hours. All I can say is that I''ve


    tried my best."

    Jordan narrowed his eyes. "So you think you''ve been wronged?"


    "No," I quickly said.


    How could I say yes when my boss asked me this question?


    Jordan sighed. "I can''t deny that the schedule is a bit tight with only less than seven hours. It''s not


    easy to rush out a bid proposal in just a few hours, but there are some things you need to do better."
