Chapter 413


    "Then don''t let him enter the third round!"


    He threw the list aside and said in a low voice, "Let''s see how he can stir up trouble if he can''t enter! By the way, do you think... there is anything wrong with the bidding in Western City this time?"


    "Something wrong?" Chet raised his eyes, obviously taken back. "Are you suggesting that things are going too smoothly?"


    He rolled his eyes and thought: "Is he crazy? He''s actuallyining that it was going smoothly."


    "Frederick, are you sure you''re not overthinking? In all the projects that Soaver International had nned to invest in, which one of them did not catch anyone''s eye? It will be weird if no one is fighting for it!"


    "At the western side, three pieces ofnd are auctioned at the same time. If you are an investor of apany, and you are confident about the development there, would you go for the one that is within your capability, or would you go for the big hits?"


    Even people outside thepany had been talking to him about this piece ofnd more than once. But for some unknown reason, Frederick felt that something was amiss.


    His question stumped Chet. Frederick was right! No matter how delicious a piece of meat looks, the meat in your mouth will always taste better. "All the otherpanies are within our grasp. Apart from these two, who have kept their information confidential, the only one left is Pitcher Group. Obviously, they just signed up, so their ranking is right at the back. Jeremy is just there to stir the pot, perhaps his sole purpose is to mess with us! He''s so obvious. Don''t you think it''s a little rash or even stupid? Besides, don''t you find it strange? This past week, people who are close to me and know that I''m interested in this area are suddenly concerned about me. Like Penny, that person, Danica... They all reminded me to be careful as if they predicted that I would make a mistake this time. However, everything has been smooth sailing so far!"


    Frederick was perplexed. Was he really overthinking? However, his intuition told him that there was definitely something wrong!


    It was just that he didn''t understand why someone would be so keen to do something so unenviable?


    "Think about it again. Are there any mistakes in our recent work?"


    Knowing that "that person" he was referring to was his father, Chet also became serious. "Other people may have ulterior motives, but the chairman still cares about him very much! Is there really a rumor they don''t know about?" He thought.N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content.


    Chet shook his head.


    "I don''t think so! I can feel that Pitchers Company''s technology is too hasty. They have never majored in real estate, that''s why they are not even on our list! They have obviously gone beyond their capability this time. I think Jeremy may have gotten jealous and became impulsive. He may not be willing to bid at the end! To vent his anger, he wants to put us in a tight spot, but in the end, regardless of the oue, he would still be at the losing end! How about we make some preparations? If someone is really interested in this piece ofnd in Western City and wants to take action on us..." Then it must be by stealing our bidding documents. They would get their hands on the base price and the details of other internal partners! Chet''s eyes widened as he thought of this analysis. "Of course they would target Frederick!"


    To be able to get close to him and to obtain such confidential information, who else could it be apart from him?


    When their eyes met, Chet''s expression changed. Frederick had also thought of this, and his lips pursed into a thin line.


    "Frederick, if..."


    Then it hit him. If history were to repeat itself again, he would definitely despise all the women in the world! Looking at him, Chet''s eyes were full of worry.


    There was no way it could be possible!


    "There''s no ''what ifs''! I don''t want to listen to assumptions! I only believe in facts! She would never! She definitely won''t! What''s the n you just said?"


    How could she betray him? Even if her mind was on Jeremy, Frederick still couldn''t believe it.


    "Don''t touch the backups! Split this proposal into two, leave one in thepany and the other one at home. Also, split the important data. This way, we will be able to notice immediately if there''s anything unusual going on. Change the backup in case of an emergency, so we won''t suffer any loss!"


    "Alright, I''ll do as you said! As for the backup, I''ll leave it at your ce!"


    "Don''t forget that you''ve made an appointment with Director Sander for dinner at Skywater Hotel this evening!" Chet reminded him when he saw that he was obviously very disturbed and left!


    Frederick sat there for a long time feeling very worried, not moving a muscle.


    That evening, Alicia went to


    Skywater Hotel as instructed. In the room, she saw the so-called bidding document, it was a USB drive. The staff said that the room was booked


    the customer was


    el


    online but anonymous, so Alicia didn''t ask for more details. Although this person prepared everything so meticulously and carefully, even if she found out who put it there, the person must be someone insignificant! Content

    At that moment, Alicia was not in a hurry to find out who was behind it. Instead, she was more eager to solve the dilemma she''s facing.


    When she grabbed her things and


    walked out of the hotel, she met Jeremy at the entrance and he pestered her for a while. When Frederick''s car arrived, he saw the two of them interacting at the hotel entrance, but when he parked his car, he saw that they had both gone their separate ways. Jeremy had entered the hotel while Alicia left.


    For some reason, he felt a stone stuck in his heart.


    Naturally, Chet also saw it, but this time, he did not say anything.


    When she got home, she turned on theputer and saw that the so-called bidding proposal sample was actually just amon temte. She knew that the trip was meaningless.


    Such an ordinary temte could be sent to her email or be sent directly to thepany like the note. Even if it had been opened by someone else, it would not be a problem. Why did the person make her go there? Was she being toyed? Or was there a special motive behind it? But she managed toe back safely!


    She still couldn''t figure it out, but she also realized this matter didn''t seem to be as simple as she thought!


    What should she do?


    She was in a dilemma. She thought that it might be better to tell Frederick about it. Would he be able to give up the bid for her father? Or perhaps he could think of a win-win solution?


    When Frederick entered the room, he saw her frowning, pacing back and forth in the bedroom as if troubled by something!


    "What''s wrong? What''s troubling you?"


    She waspletely unaware of her surroundings. She said as if she was dreaming, "Huh, what should I do?"


    She suddenly came back to her senses when felt as if something had pricked her. "Hubby, you''re back? There''s something I want to tell you..."


    He obviously noticed her abnormality and caressed her hair tofort her. "Well, what''s the matter? Why are you so nervous?"


    "Well, I want to ask you..." Alicia hesitated. Was thend in Western City important to you? She thought to herself and wondered how to continue. Frederick''s cell phone rang before Alicia could say anything else.
