Chapter 94 Congratulations in advance on winning the bid?
But she clearly did not see the Carver family's name in the list of participants beforehand.
If the Carver family really wanted this land, then this bid for ... could be a bit difficult!
While Fiona's face was dark, Sheila had a completely different focus from her.
"Lyra, you're hanging on to my brother, and you're still having an affair with Mr. Lloyd, and now it looks
like your relationship with Mr. Carver isn't pure either!"
Thinking about the last time Cody had taken her to the Matthews family's welcoming dinner, and to the
bidding this time, Sheila gritted her teeth with jealousy.
"Does Keith know about this kind of behavior of yours!?"
Before Lyra could say anything, Cody was the first to frown and snicker.
"With your big face, protruding eyes, unpleasant voice, you naturally can't understand how attractive
Lyra is to people."
"You!"
Cody was young, hot-tempered, and had always been vicious to people he hated.
Sheila's face turned red with anger.
She had always been confident that she was good-looking. Whenever she went, she was always the
object of praise and pursuit. It was the first time for her to be so disliked!
The key was that this person came from the Carver family, and he was a popular actor!
Although she was angry, she feared the Carver family, and can only vent her anger out on Lyra.
"What kind of mesmerizing did you put into them? Why are they all so inclined to you?"
Lyra just smiled and didn't answer.
But the calmer and light-hearted she was, the more she appeared to Sheila to be deliberately
pretentious.
"Just you wait, I'll make you pay!"
Lyra pulled her lips together, "I'll see what happens."
Sheila's words did not hurt her in the slightest, and she could only glare back at her, trying to
overpower her with her presence.
Cody came around in front of Lyra and glanced twice at Fiona and Sheila on opposite sides of the room
"Let's go. After talking more with such people, I feel the air at the door is dirty."
Lyra went inside the venue with him.
Sheila was so angry that she stomped her foot. If her eyes could kill, she would have killed Lyra a
thousand times.
Fiona, on the other hand, was preoccupied and didn't know what to think.
In the bidding room.
Before the bidding officially started, the representatives of each company spontaneously formed a
small group and made small talks.
Lyra looked around the entire venue and finally found Jackie in a very inconspicuous place.
The two people seemed to have a sense of each other.
Jackie received her glance and also glanced towards Lyra. Their eyes were as if exchanging
something in silence.
Seeming to reach a consensus, the two's eyes naturally avoided again, as if nothing had happened.
Cody, who was originally pulled in to make up the number of amount, didn't even notice and was
reading the organizer's detailed description of the suburban land in the west of the city when he turned
his head to ask her.
"Lyra, do you like this land very much? If you like it, I can bid it and give it to you."
Lyra laughed, "If you really dare to buy, the old Carver must break your legs if he knows."
"He won't punish me because it's for you, and he can't wait."
He smiled softly and looked at her with admiring eyes, "And even if I do have to get beaten up when I
go back, it's worth it for my queen!"
Lyra flicked him on the head, "Don't make a joke."
Cody let out a "ouch" sound, covered his forehead with his hand and his expression showed as if he
was begging for comfort.
The two were joking around when the bidding session started.
Representatives of major companies had entered the main hall.
The seating order was prearranged, and Lyra went directly to the first row with her name on it and sat
down.
With the opening remarks of the host, the bidding officially began.
A waiter politely went to the seat and put away the bids and offers from each company.
When it came to Cody and Lyra, Cody waved his hand, indicating no.
The waiter was shocked and could only awkwardly skip the two and go to collect the next company's
information.
Fiona, who was also in the first row of seats on the right, saw their movements there.
She was relieved to make sure Cody didn't even have a program and had a laid-back look on his face.
Since the Carver family wasn’t going to fight for the land, it would easy for the Freeman group to take
that!
She stood up proudly in front of everyone and put the Freeman group's bid and proposal into a wooden
box held by the waiter.
The other companies gradually clamored up when they saw her imperative doing.
"It looks like Mr. Carver is coming to join in the fun, but there is the Freeman group, I'm afraid we have
no chance to take the suburban land."
"Yeah, alas, another trip for nothing. only congratulations in advance to the Freeman group."
The crowd sighed.
Fiona heard it all and became even more pleased with herself.
She humbly stood up and smiled at all the company heads in the back row, as if she was the host.
"I'm really sorry. Because the Freeman group does want it, I can only let you all down.But rest assured,
I will not let you make a trip for nothing. As long as the companies that come to the bidding today, you
have the ability to compete with the Freeman group for subsequent construction projects."
Hearing this, the crowd lit up.
They had little hope for taking that land, but now they had the opportunity to work with the Freeman
group. It was like a pie in the sky!
The crowd started to kiss Fiona's ass.
"Ms. Fiona, the Freeman group with you in charge, will certainly be very influential!"
"Yes, yes, Ms. Fiona is generous. Oceania Construction has the best reputation in this area. Ms. Fiona
must consider us more!"
with their flattering words, Fiona was overjoyed, so this was feeling of power?
It was too good!
She suppressed her inner ecstasy and calmly waved her hand to signal the crowd to be quiet and listen
to her.
"Don't worry. All you need to do then is to submit the proposal, and the Freeman group will choose
three companies with the best proposals from it to cooperate. Everyone will win together."
"Great! Ms. Fiona is generous!"
Fiona earned a good reputation for the Freeman group.
Sheila was also touted with great glee.
She turned her head and subconsciously glanced in Lyra's direction.
But Sheila saw she was on her phone carelessly, with a look that she didn’t consider them at all.
She grimaced, walked over to Lyra's seat and looked at her with her chin up.
"Lyra, when the host comes out he will announce that the suburban land in the west of the city belongs Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
to the Freeman group. You can see everyone in the scene is happy for the Freeman group. Why don't
you also say a couple of compliments for us? "
Lyra put down the phone, and the corners of her mouth slightly turned upwards, "Don't be in a hurry,
and don't say too much. If it's not the Freeman group, aren't you guys embarrassed?"
How can it not be the Freeman group? What other company in the room can compete with the
Freeman group?
In Sheila's eyes, that was insubordination.
Sheila looked at her sarcastically, with a flash of malice under her eyes, "Do you dare to make a bet
with me?"
