Please Let Me Go novel Chapter 114

J City woke up slowly in the morning light. The morning sun rose. The pedestrians were getting more and more. The city began more lively.

At seven o'clock, Antonio opened his eyes on the bed. He got out of bed and came to the window to watch the busy streets downstairs.

The pace of life in the city was always so fast that people didn't know how to rest themselves.

When Antonio was thinking, his phone rang. It was a call from his assistant, Oscar.

"What's the matter?" Antonio's gaze fell into the far depths of the city, his voice clear and cold.

"Mr. Antonio, today we have a bidding project. Would you like to go there in person?" Oscar reported unhurriedly.

Antonio pressed his left temple. If Oscar didn’t call him, he would really forget about the matter. Today, J City Government was going to have a land bid. There was one piece of land in the bidding plan of the Baron Group.

In fact, Antonio had been interested in the piece of land for some time. In order to get it, he even let his men pull some strings.

For this piece of land located in the prosperous part of J City, Antonio was hell-bent on winning. However, he had forgotten such an important matter. It seemed that he was really pissed off by Adelaide so that he forgot such an important thing.

"I will go in person." Antonio said, then hung up the phone. He turned around and went into the bathroom to start freshening up.

After freshening up, he went downstairs and drove to the company. In order to get the piece of land today, he and several department managers worked overtime for a few days and then drafted a biding document.

He was confident. With his knowledge of J City and his judgment on the market, this price could definitely get that piece of land.

But what they were afraid of the most was price leakage, because once so, all previous efforts would in vain.

Antonio had always done a good job on this point. Although the bidding price was discussed with several department managers together, the final price was decided by himself in the office alone. So it was only him who knew the price of the land bidding this time.

In Antonio's view, that piece of land was already in his pocket.

Today’s bidding party started in the afternoon. After lunch at the company, Antonio took out the phone and looked at Adelaide’s phone number. After hesitating for a while, he called Adelaide.

"Adelaide, there is a bidding party today. Can you go with me?" Today's bidding party was kind of a social party. All the guests who were invited to the bidding could bring a date. Antonio wanted to bring Adelaide.

In this way, he could also test Adelaide's attitude towards him now.

"Okay." What Antonio didn't expect was that Adelaide actually agreed. He was overjoyed immediately.

"All right, dress up well. Let others see how gorgeous my wife is." Antonio's tone was full of joy. Adelaide answered "Hmmm" and then hung up the phone.

After a while, there was a knock on the door of Antonio's office.

"Come in."

The door of the office was opened. A woman in a white dress caught Antonio's sight.

There was a faint pink halo on her fair cheeks. Under the long and narrow eyeliner were long and stunningly beautiful eyelashes.

Her big eyes were so bright, and the small lips were full of charm. This was Adelaide what looked like today. Even if Antonio could see Adelaide every day, Antonio was still surprised by Adelaide’s beauty today.

Today, Adelaide was drop-dead gorgeous and stunning.

Antonio wanted to step forward to hold this woman who belonged to him into his arms, but in the end, he didn’t do it.
