Chapter 980


    Nelson could not sleep since leaving Monique''s ce a night ago.


    He had no idea that Monique harbored those kinds of feelings towards him before. Now that he knew,


    he felt quite awkward.


    What was even stranger was that he actually felt sorry towards Naomi.


    He rubbed his forehead, and stared at the sky outside that was gradually clearing up more and more. It


    was only then that he got up to wash up and drove out.


    When he came back to his senses, he realized that he had driven towards a ce near Valiant East!


    Naomi would get out of the car there every day when she arrived at work.


    As soon as Nelson stopped the car, he saw Naomiing out from a car in front of him.


    Almost without any hesitation, Nelson ran forward Naomi and stopped her.


    "Naomi..."


    As Naomi turned around, she crashed into his warm embrace.


    When she confirmed that the person she crashed into was Nelson, the corners of her lips curled up.


    "Why are you here so early? Is there anything you want to talk to me about?"


    Nelson shook his head and said, "It''s nothing. I just missed you!"


    Intimate words shared between couples were always touching. Naomi also pursed her lips and said, "I


    missed you too! Did you take good care of yourself?"


    Nelson nodded and said, "Of course! What about you?"


    "I''ve also taken good care of myself!"


    As soon as they finished speaking, their stomachs growled at the same time.


    Both of them were stunned for a moment before bursting intoughter together.


    "You didn''t have breakfast?" Nelson asked.


    Naomi nodded and said, "I left home a little early this morning. Auntie Cindy prepared breakfast for me,


    but I didn''t have much of an appetite, so I didn''t eat! What about you?"


    Nelson raised his lips and replied, "Same reason as yours. I didn''t want to eat either. I feel like eating


    now though! Shall we go over there for breakfast?" "Okay!" Naomi said with a smile.


    It just so happened that near thepany was a busymercial ce. The two of them found a


    random shop and bought breakfast, just like an ordinary couple. Then, they sat on a bench outside and


    ate facing each other.


    There were two young couples opposite them. The girl was eating a dish that was different from the


    boy''s. Then, she took a bite of the boy''s food.


    When Naomi saw this, she thought of her parents who were always happy with the small things in life.


    Nelson followed her gaze, and in the next second, he picked up his sandwich and gave it to Naomi.


    "Would you like to try mine?"


    Naomi froze for a second, then immediatelyughed.


    "Isn''t yours the same as mine?"


    "It''s not the same. Yours is a vegetarian sandwich, while mine is a pepperoni one!"


    "Really?" Naomi did not doubt him and leaned forwards to taste it.


    "Isn''t it the same?"


    When she saw Nelson''s smiling eyes, she realized that she had been tricked!


    "You lied to me..."


    Nelson shook his head in denial and said, "Does it feel like we''re a couple?"


    Naomi came to a sudden realization and immediately nodded while saying, "A little bit! You should


    taste mine too!"


    The two of them fed each other for a while until Naomi was almostte for work. She hurriedly got up


    and went to thepany.


    It was only when Naomi entered thepany that she recalled that she had forgotten to talk to Nelson


    about what happened that night!


    It seemed that Eudora could not ept them for the time being, and she might need some time!


    However, Nelson''s car was already far away. She thought about it for a while and decided not to tell


    Nelson about it for the time being!


    As for Nelson who had originally been in a gloomy mood, he felt a lot better after having breakfast with


    Naomi.


    After he returned to thepany, his mood hadpletely brightened up. The rest of the day was


    going to be wonderful.


    In the end, as soon as he entered his office, he saw Richard entering with an anxious face.


    "Mr. Luther, I have bad news!" "What is it?" Nelson turned around.


    "Valiant East had also participated in thendscape project bidding that we were determined to win!"


    "Valiant East?" Nelson frowned.


    "Don''t they have a lot of big projects every year? They''ve never cared about such small projects like


    this!"


    "That''s the problem. If they had participated since the beginning, it wouldn''t be a big deal. However,


    now that ourpany is so close to winning the bid yet they''re suddenly participating halfway, I


    suspect that Mr. Granger is purposefully targeting you!"


    Nelson, of course, had also thought of the possibility that Richard had suggested.


    Since he had already gone this far, he had long guessed that something might go wrong!


    As expected, Amos was still the same, full of vignce as ever.


    "It doesn''t matter. Let''s bid as usual! Tell them that I will head over in the afternoon."


    "But..." Richard replied anxiously, "...we''ve invested a lot, and a lot of preparation work has been done!


    If we lose the bid, Miss Monique will..."


    "I''ll find a way to exin it to her! Just tell them to take it easy."


    Richard had no idea what Nelson was up to, but he could only oblige!


    In the afternoon on that day, after Nelson had gotten ready, he went to the bidding site with his


    As expected, Amos was there as well.


    Valiant East indeed lived up to its name. In only half a day''s time, they had reached the final stage of


    N?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    the bidding process. They really were powerful!


    Of course, there was also another aspect, and that was that the organizer wanted to increase the


    poprity of the event. If a bigpany like Valiant East suddenly wanted to bid, it was impossible for


    them not to agree to their request!


    Due to this matter, an originally small unknown project suddenly became a trending topic.


    There were countless reporters on the scene, and they were all reflecting if they had made the wrong


    judgment before all this.


    Perhaps this was not a project as small as they had predicted, because Valiant East had always been


    the forefront at the market each time!


    The projects that Valiant East took part in were bound to have promising prospects.


    This matter not only attracted the media, but also the public''s attention. The bidding site suddenly


    became very lively.


    Although the surroundings were extremely chaotic, two people remained rtively calm.


    It could be said that from the moment they arrived, they had not been affected by anything.


    Of course, one of the two people was Amos.


    The other one was Nelson.


    The two of them looked at each other for a long time through the crowd. In the end, Nelson was the first


    to stand up and walk over to Amos.


    As the younger one, he stretched his hand out and took the initiative to shake hands with Amos.


    "Mr. Granger, I did not expect to meet you here. I''m honored to be able to bid with Valiant East."


    As the president of the Valiant East, Amos was reluctant to shake hands with him at all, yet he still


    reached his hand out in a perfunctory way.


    "You don''t have to feel honored. I came here with the purpose topete with you!"


    He did not hide his intentions at all, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.


    Nelson was still calm. After hesitating for a moment, he smiled again and said, "Mr. Granger, thank you


    for your kindness." "You''re wee!" The whole process was full of smiles, as if two friends were


    talking. Who knew that the whole thing was apetition between a father and his daughter''s


    unwee boyfriend?


    Following the organizer''s orders, the bidding began!


    Amos spoke again, "Don''t even think about giving in to me, and don''t think aboutpeting with me


    either. I will have no mercy. No matter what you do, I will not let you and Naomi be together!"
