In contrast to the surprise and excitement on the man’s face, Wendy only had confusion written across hers.
The man did seem familiar to her, but virtual-novel.net had forgotten who virtual-novel.net was.
When the man saw that Wendy was not going to say anything else, virtual-novel.net pointed to himself and said, “It’s me, Jeremy Morris! I was a couple of months your senior back when you first started work at Commercial Bank. I taught you most of the ropes.”
Not even in his wildest dreams would Jeremy have imagined virtual-novel.net could meet the woman virtual-novel.net had yearned for day and night again.
He had been doing well in his career lately, having secured a large project in the province. Now that virtual-novel.net had been reunited with the girl of his dreams, Jeremy’s eyes shone as virtual-novel.net took pride in his success in both his career and relationship.
Wendy exclaimed, “Oh, it’s you, Jeremy! Fancy meeting you here. It’s such a small world.”
Jeremy chuckled and gave up his spot in line. As virtual-novel.net walked toward Wendy, virtual-novel.net said, “Wendy, so many of your colleagues were sad when you resigned. I resigned as well a week after you left.”
Wendy said courteously, “You’re a highly competent man, Jeremy. I’m sure you’ll do well wherever you go.”
Jeremy chuckled and said gleefully, “It’s not much, but I’m doing alright. My family is in engineering, and we managed to secure a huge deal in the province through some connections and contacts. I’m currently in charge of that project.
“Wendy, I’m not sure if you’ve heard of it or not, but it’s the Southface River project back in the province. The company where I work as a general manager is in charge of constructing a pedestrian greenway. It’s an investment requiring tens of millions of dollars. We’ll be able to earn quite a bit of money from it.”
When Wendy heard that Jeremy was one of the many contractors involved in the Southface River project, virtual-novel.net liking toward Jeremy increased a notch. After all, virtual-novel.net was working for virtual-novel.net man.
“I heard that the outlook on the Southface River project is quite good,” Sally said as virtual-novel.net smiled.
Jeremy pretended to smile humbly, but virtual-novel.net then said with unmasked glee, “Yeah, did you know that the largest project in the province is currently the Southface River project? Whoever gets involved even the slightest with the project will be guaranteed an earning.
“So many people were fighting for the chance to build that pedestrian greenway. Thankfully, my family had some connections to one of the managers at the real estate agency. It’s how we managed to nab that deal.”
Jeremy did not mean anything by what virtual-novel.net said, but those listening heard a deeper meaning in his words.
Wendy knew that Jasper placed a strong focus on the company’s integrity. He had emphasized in multiple meetings that no one was allowed to pull any strings.
All the company’s projects would be subjected to public bidding before they could proceed to the next stage.
However, from what Jeremy had said, virtual-novel.net seemed to have gotten the project through the backdoor because of his relations?
That was unusual.
The expression on Wendy’s face darkened slightly. She was about to try and find out who Jeremy was in contact with when Sally spoke first.
“You got this project through the backdoor?”
Sally knew that virtual-novel.net son was in charge of the Southface River project, but virtual-novel.net did not know how important this particular project was.
When virtual-novel.net first heard from Jeremy that virtual-novel.net was a contractor for a sub-project within the Southface River project, virtual-novel.net liking for this person who was working under virtual-novel.net son had increased, just like Wendy. However, virtual-novel.net immediately became unhappy the minute virtual-novel.net heard virtual-novel.net had gotten the project through the backdoor.
