Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2014

Marcos, who was used to making deals, was stunned by what Luke said. He asked, "That's it?"

"Yeah, that's it," Luke affirmed.

"I don't need to let you win the bid?" Marcos was still in shock. ‘He doesn't care about the bidding but wants to see other people's bids?’

"No, I'm very confident in my company's proposal," Luke said firmly.

Marcos was even more puzzled. Since he was confident, why would Luke want him to disclose all the bidders’ proposals?

"Since you’re so confident and you’re asking for the proposals to be made public, are you worried that the result will not be fair and just? You can rest assured that I’m keeping watch myself. It’ll be judged according to the various proposals as well as the strength of each company.”

"You’re known for being fair and impartial in the industry. To be honest, I asked you to do this not for fear of unjust results but for my personal affairs," Luke said vaguely.

"Your personal affairs?" Marcos was even more surprised that such a good exchange was concerning Luke’s personal affairs.

‘Luke's an interesting man.’

He did not think for long before he agreed. "No problem. I’ll arrange for it."

"It's a pleasure to work with you." Luke knew he would agree. After all, he would not lose anything by making the proposals public.

"I can say the same." Marcos put away the documents, glanced at the time, and reminded him, "Mr. Crawford, the meeting is about to start. I want to avoid unnecessary gossip and trouble. You should go to the conference room first."

"Okay." Luke took control of the wheelchair and left Marcos' office.

Luca and Jason were still standing at the elevator doors waiting for him. When they saw Luke approaching, Jason hurriedly went behind him and pushed the wheelchair.

"Boss, all is well?" Jason asked.

"It's settled. Let’s go downstairs to the conference room." Luke glanced at Luca and did not talk much.

Based on his neutral tone, Luca was unsure what he talked to Marcos about and how it went.

The three of them arrived at the 23rd floor and walked into the conference room. Almost all the bidders from all over the world had arrived.

Jason pushed Luke to find the seat for T Corporation. He put the chair aside. Luke took the space assigned to T Corporation on his wheelchair.

Their location was relatively front.

Luke took a look around. The seats were positioned according to the size of their companies.

Luca and Jason sat in the assistants’ seats respectively. They turned on the computer and prepared the related equipment before getting ready.

Every company was the same. If their company won the contract, they would record this glorious moment.

Pierre, who was sitting in the back. He was upset when he saw Luke come in late and sit in the front seat.

‘Why does T Corporation get to sit so front? The other companies are all multinational groups. Who does Luke think he is to sit with them?’

Pierre sat sloppily and ignored people from the company next to him who wanted to strike up a conversation.

He stared at Luke's back. He was unhappy, jealous, and puzzled. Luke went up before he did but arrived at the conference room earlier than Luke.

He was wondering where Luke went.
