Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 24

Joshua's favoritism was getting a bit ridiculous.

Joshua had more to say, but Chloe stood up and cut him off. "Grandpa, I'll take some gifts to CNR Tower tomorrow to apologize to Mr. Connor and make sure we get the bidding qualification."

The resort project had special approval from the central government and had to go through a public tender. Hundreds of construction companies were after it, and the chances were already slim. Now, without even the qualification to bid, Moncada International had no chance at all.

Since this mess was on her, Chloe wasn't going to dodge the responsibility.

Lucas smirked. "Fine, I'll be waiting for Sartori Corporation's tender document tomorrow. Don't let me down."

Lucas didn't think Chloe could pull it off. He'd already witnessed Mr. Connor's pettiness and grudge-holding firsthand. If apologies were enough, he wouldn't be saying this. In fact, he'd already visited several times over the past few days. Connor had outright refused to see him, and at his last visit, Connor even had security kick him out. It was beyond humiliating.

This was all because of Chloe. She also needed to experience the same public humiliation he felt when being thrown out by security.

The next morning, Chloe drove to the CNR Tower. She parked in the terrace lot and looked up at the skyscraper piercing the clouds, its gilded name gleaming in the morning sun. Completed less than three years ago, CNR had already become an iconic building in Riverbrook. She'd always thought it was some new tech startup, but it turned out to be a branch of Sartori Corporation. CNR must symbolize Connor's name.

Chloe walked into the lobby and headed straight for the reception desk.

"Hi, could you tell me which floor Mr. Connor's office is on?" she asked.

The four receptionists, all stunning in their own right, reacted differently to hearing her call Connor by his name. The tallest one with a pointed chin shot back, "You think you can just call our CEO by his name? What's your relationship with him?"
