Chapter 148 Bid Proposal
Warren mistakenly believed that Isabelle intended to leave Harmo Real Estate, leading to their breakup.
Warren didn’t understand how Isabelle could forgive him. Warren thought he had made significant concessions. Why did Isabelle still choose to ignore him?
Warren intended to try to win Isabelle back. Warren didn’t want to be ignored again.
“This bidding is very important. I have confidence in this project. Isabelle, you will be my secretary and accompany me on a business trip to Hoolypool in three days!”
No one dared to disobey Warren’s orders. This matter was settled like this.
Isabelle started to panic. Why did Warren make her participate in this project? Wesley is going to be thrilled about this.
Isabelle’s face turned pale. Isabelle wanted to refuse Warren’s arrangement. However, Sheldon signaled her with his eyes to agree.
Isabelle could only remain silent.
“Meeting adjourned! Everyone can return to their respective positions and continue working.”
Warren announced the end of the meeting. This also meant that there would be no further changes in the arrangements for Isabelle to follow up on the project.

Isabelle could only return to her own workstation.
Sheldon caught up with Isabelle. Then, Sheldon handed over all the project materials to Isabelle and advised, “Ms. Spencer, Warren assigned you this task because he was afraid you wouldn’t come back after taking leave. Since Warren has arranged it this way, I hope you prioritize your work and complete it before anything else.”
Sheldon felt that Isabelle had a strong desire to leave this time.
Therefore, Sheldon also wanted to do something for Warren, to help him win back Isabelle.
Isabelle didn’t speak. Her mood was heavy.
Isabelle knew that one day Wesley would ask her to leave Warren.
This project might have been her last project she participated in at Warren Company.
Therefore, Isabelle planned to only be responsible for preparing the project’s bid. She did not intend to travel with Warren.
For the next two days, Isabelle stayed in the office organizing the bidding documents.
Warren had been preparing for this project for a year and had spent a lot of money on it. If this project failed, it would affect Warren’s company operations.
Warren wanted to bid for the land in Hoolypool. He had already made ample preparations to secure the purchase.
As long as Mr. Schweitzer agreed to sell this piece of land to Warren, Warren’s project would be able to proceed smoothly.
Mr. Schweitzer was an elderly figure.

Isabelle thought that someone like this must have been very picky and difficult to talk to.
Isabelle investigated Mr. Schweitzer for this.
Isabelle learned that Mr. Schweitzer had undergone a brain stroke surgery and was unable to sit for long periods of time. Furthermore, Mr. Schweitzer’s physical condition was not suitable for working late into the night, and it was also not advisable for him to experience significant emotional fluctuations.
Isabelle also found out that there were six companies bidding for this project.
Isabelle started to worry that Warren would be scheduled to have a conversation with Mr. Schweitzer last.
If Warren was assigned to the back, then we should be careful in our
actions.
Isabelle summarized the guidelines for getting along with Mr.
Schweitzer. She hoped it would help Warren successfully secure the land.
On the day of the bidding, Isabelle left Glenda’s apartment and headed to Harmo Real Estate.
After Isabelle planned to hand over the bid to Warren, she found an excuse to no longer follow up on the project.
At that moment, Isabelle received a phone call.
It was Wesley’s assistant who made the call. “Ms. Spencer, Wesley’s leg injury has relapsed. But he is very resistant to going to the hospital. Can you come over and help me persuade Wesley?”
Isabelle felt troubled. She didn’t want to delay Warren’s matters.

Isabelle estimated the time. She decided to first go to Wesley’s place and then go to the company.
“I’ll be right there.” Isabelle hung up the phone and instructed the driver, “Go to Wesley’s place.”
Isabelle arrived at Wesley’s house. She found his house very messy. Wesley must have been in a lot of pain, as he had thrown many things.
Wesley’s assistant walked over. “Wesley used to react like this every time he had phantom limb pain.”
Isabelle cried. Isabelle looked at Wesley, whose face was pale, and understood that he had endured immense pain.
Isabelle took out the medical toolkit from her bag and prepared to relieve Wesley’s pain. She said to Wesley, “Wesley, lie down and let me help alleviate your pain like last time.”
Wesley’s assistant glanced at Isabelle’s bag. “Ms. Spencer, why don’t you put down your bag first?”
“No, thank you,” Isabelle refused. Inside her bag was the bid document. She dared not hand the bag over to anyone.
Wesley also noticed Isabelle’s bag. He began to ask Isabelle, “How did the project you were following go?”
Isabelle’s actions froze. She began to lie, “I’m sorry, Wesley. Warren didn’t let me follow up on that project.”
Wesley was a little disappointed. He closed his eyes and stopped talking.
Isabelle breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Wesley didn’t mention the project again.

Then, Isabelle started treating Wesley, hoping to alleviate his pain.
It took Isabelle a long time to receive treatment.
Isabelle felt a bit tired. She asked Wesley’s assistant to go and buy medicine for Wesley. And Wesley had already quieted down, falling into a deep sleep.
Isabelle was too tired. She planned to take a nap before leaving.
Isabelle was awakened by a sudden ringing of the telephone.
Isabelle realized that she had overslept. Warren was already getting ready to leave!
It was Sheldon who called Isabelle. Isabelle quickly stood up and walked outside Wesley’s house to answer the call.
“Ms. Spencer, why didn’t you come to the company? The bid proposal is still with you. Warren is about to leave.” Sheldon said anxiously.
Isabelle replied, “Wesley got sick. I have to take care of him. Please apologize to Warren for me. I can’t go with him.”
“And Mr. Schweitzer didn’t really like female secretaries. I’ll give you the bidding documents now, you and Warren can go.”
Isabelle and Sheldon successfully met and handed over the bid document.
Sheldon understood that Isabelle didn’t want to go. He could only speak more on behalf of Warren. He said to Isabelle, “You not going at the last minute has made Warren very angry. It’s just that he doesn’t have time to come over right now. Otherwise, he would definitely come and take you with him.”
“Warren was very confident about this project. Mr. Schweitzer also

admired Warren. Moreover, with the bid proposal you made, I believe Warren will definitely go smoothly this time!”
“Ms. Spencer, Warren cared a lot about you. Can you please consider reconciling with Warren after he finishes this project?”
Isabelle did not answer Sheldon.
Isabelle didn’t know if she and Warren could get back together.
Isabelle watched as Sheldon drove away. She felt relieved. She believed that as long as she didn’t go with Warren, Wesley wouldn’t be able to ask her to do anything to hinder Warren.
Isabelle didn’t know what Wesley intended to do to Warren. However, she felt that the man she had seen at Wesley’s house that day was very suspicious.
Isabelle suspected that the man had a bigger conspiracy. Isabelle didn’t understand why Wesley wanted to cooperate with him.
Isabelle’s phone rang again.
