Taylor felt smug as Luke occupied the stage for another few more minutes, repeating his determination
for the land, and then took a defiant look at Sean before he finally got off the stage.
Sean was not bothered by Luke.He picked up his presentation document and gave Sebastian and
everyone else a copy.
Then he and Steve stood in the center of the stage with confidence.
"Here's the content of Riddle Corporation's tender document."
Subsequently, Sean went all out to present his plan for the land and analyzed the project.
Looking at the Riddle brothers on stage, Sebastian finally understood why Nicole asked him to be fair.
Because the Riddle brothers were slightly better from a purely fair point of view.He supported the
Riddle family, not just because of Nicole.
An hour had passed, and the dust had settled.
Coming out of the conference room dumbfounded, Luke could not believe that he had lost.
He looked at Taylor and then caught up with him, asking, "What was going on? Didn't you say that you
would help me? How could the brats win?"
Taylor had a dilemmatic look on his face.
Mervin had just been warned; he could have lost his job if Sebastian had told the higher-ups in the
government about his relationship with the McCarthy family.
He risked that for Luke, yet Luke was blaming him.He looked not too happy.
"How can you still have the nerve to say this? What the hell have you presented? You've only spent a
few seconds on the tender yet complain that I haven't helped you.This is ridiculous! I have been
warned by Mervin for helping you.I'm not going to help you again, and we shall have nothing to do with
each other from now on," he said indignantly.
With that, he left at once, not sparing a look at Luke again.
Not expecting Taylor to turn his back on him so quickly, Luke rolled his eyes.
‘You're not the only person I could find.I can get a thousand people to help me.He is all sizzle and no
steak"
Luke turned and walked over to those people in the offices he had rubbed shoulders with earlier.
But as soon as they saw him, they dispersed at once, as if afraid of being associated with him.
Not giving up, he tried to approach a few more, but they all reacted just like those people earlier—all
avoided him like the plague.
‘I can't believe it!' Luke stood where he was, looking with resentment at Sean and Steve, who were
talking t o Sebastian.
'Why did things turn out to be not what I expected?’ Not daring to show his anger at Sebastian, he had
no choice but to glare at Sean and Steve.
‘It must be the Riddle family's fault.They must have struck a deal with Sebastian secretly.Otherwise, I
wouldn't have lost with my perfect preparation"
Luke took out his mobile phone and made a call, shouting angrily into the phone, "What the hell is
going on? Didn't you say you made a deal with Mr.Wyance? Why did we still lose?"
Meanwhile, in a beauty center, Joyce McCarthy, Luke's daughter, sat up and asked the beautician to
step aside with the wave of a hand, then said in disbelief, "I have talked to Martin several times; he
promised me that and no way we would have lost."
Joyce and Martin were colleagues and sort of the best partners in the hospital.
She had inadvertently mentioned the family land with him before, and Martin had said that he would
talk to his father.
“Could it be that Martin lied to me? Or did you actually forget about it, and he did not talk to his father at
all?"
