CEO's Dumb Bride novel Chapter 149

Chapter 149 Have Some Backbone

Johnson Smith was slightly taken aback, but soon resumed his smile, "Is that so? Let me check again."

He picked up the document again and said, "Wait for me to make the changes, then I'll show you."

Francis Landau didn't speak, tacitly agreeing.

Johnson Smith took the document and left. Francis Landau took off his tie and unbuttoned two buttons.

All expressions disappeared from his face, and he sat silently in the conference room, his gaze drifting.

Until Harriet Osborne knocked and entered.

"Mr. Landau, I couldn't reach you on the phone yesterday. I went to liaise with the client, and everything has been settled. Here's the contract for your review."

Francis Landau took the contract from her hands, flipping through it casually, "Hmm, you continue."

"Alright."

Harriet Osborne took the contract back, unable to resist taking another look at him.

Hesitating, she asked, "Mr. Landau, is something bothering you?"

Francis Landau looked up at her, "Is it that obvious?"

Harriet smiled, "Indeed, it's obvious. You only flipped through two pages of the contract without really looking."

Francis Landau remained silent for a moment, then stood up and left the conference room.

When Lilian Rossum woke up, she was still on the ground. After a night's rest, her whole body ached.

The ground was cold, and the side of her face that was pressed against it had lost all sensation.

She looked around, still in the same room as yesterday, her wrists still tied.

What was different was that there was a bowl in front of her, filled with cold food.

She pursed her lips. Even though the food was cold, she could still smell its aroma, which tantalized her taste buds, making her salivate.

But in her current position, eating from that bowl would be no different from a dog.
