According to this progress, Gilda was very likely to win the bet. But Steven would not easily admit defeat until the last moment.
“What’s the hurry? Isn’t there still more than half a year left? It’s not easy to complete a project, but ruining one is
easy…”
Steven’s eyes darkened. It seemed that he was ready to burn all the bridges. He had been up and down in the business world for many years, so how could he be willing to lose to a young girl?
“We must find a way to get rid of Dillan…”
“Mr. Sanders, I have a good idea.”

Steven raised his eyebrows and said happily, “Tell me.”
Jonah whispered something to Steven. Steven was all smiles. “It seems that you have learned a lot from me over the years. Then do as you say.”
“Yes, Mr. Sanders.”
In the evening, at Phil Bar,
Gilda arranged a celebration party for Dillan and invited colleagues from the company to gather together. It was so

“Congratulations, Mr. Miller…”
‘Congratulations, Ms. Lynch…”
“I wish Glory Corporation a better future…”

married.”
His words were full of regret.
If he had known, he wouldn’t have called it off anyway.
But now…
It was too late to repent.
“Gilda, if I do it again, I think I will accept my parents‘ arrangement and marry you.”
But Gilda felt that Dillan was drunk tonight, so she hurriedly said, “Mr. Miller, are you drunk tonight? Go back to
rest!”
