Chapter 876 - Congratulations To Leonard!

Over the weekend, at Leonard's request, Mellisa did not go to Leonhart's study for lessons.

Since he could see how her mood was affected, by taking advantage of her free time, he took Mellisa to go strolling around Bandung.

Many problems in life can be released by gazing at a beautiful sight.

This weekend was a rare peace and comfort for Mellisa.

In an instant, the day had turned into Monday.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Leonard brought Mellisa and all the consulting team to the association building as scheduled.

Lockhart and his son also left together.

On the way, Mellisa smoothed her collar  from time to time, wearing a suit in her disguise.

Seeing that they were already approaching the building, she muttered. "Do you think the Adlers can win the bid?"

Leonard had been busy with this bidding business for the previous few days.

This image was actually very different from the man she had in mind.

In Jakarta, he is a tough and brave policeman, his demeanor shows how he greatly appreciates truth.

Although he sometimes abuses her, it is mostly love between lovers.

Now that she was getting involved in the Adler family's project, Mellisa had no idea she would see such a domineering aura in Leonard.

The man turned his head and looked at her as he continued to drive, and when he curled his lips, he gave a vague answer. "Maybe yes, maybe not, we'll find out in a moment!"

Mellisa pursed her lips and turned her eyes to look at the building. "When I went out with you these past two days, I felt that you were quite relaxed. I thought you were confident in your chances."

A few seconds later, the car drove into the parking lot in front of the building.

The convoy in the rear row followed closely behind.

Leonard stopped the car steadily, pulled the handbrake, and said, "I have an absolute chance of winning, like 70-80% maybe?"

"You're so confident huh?"

Mellisa teased and unbuckled her seatbelt. As she got out of the car with Leonard, she saw Lockhart and his son coming from behind the convoy.

When Mellisa saw them, she was disgusted from the bottom of her heart.

She slammed the car's door without saying a word, held the document in her hand, and walked to Leonard's side with low eyebrows, acting as an assistant.

Leonard and Mellisa walked towards the building one after another.

Luke caught this scene, so he couldn't help but sneer again. "Brother, I heard you made an offer for the Adler family?"

Leonard didn't speak, he just stared at him quietly.

Upon seeing this, Luke sneered cynically. "Don't look at me like that. I'm a little worried about the failure of the Adler family this time. How will you explain it to us later? This is the first time our family attaches great importance to bidders, if it's messed up, where should we put our face?"

Leonard naturally knew the twists and turns in his heart. As he climbed the stairs, he narrowed his eyes on Luke. "You better think about why I'm the one being left in charge instead of you. Don't waste your time worrying about others if you're still not capable."

Leonard then narrowed his eyes and gave him a full mocking look.

Luke was stung by the irony, stared at his back and couldn't help but hate him.

Since they learned of the incident, he no longer had any thoughts of mending the emptiness of his heart.

This deep hatred gave him a feeling as if he was bitten by a thousand ants, torturing him day and night.

Luke also knew why he couldn't win the favor to be entrusted with this responsibility.

It was all because Leonard had a good father!

He put him first in everything!

That damn father and son...!

At this moment, Lockhart walked slowly from behind, stood beside Luke, and shook his head. "How many times have I told you, don't be in a rush. Why don't you have a long memory?"

Luke lowered his head with a frown, ignored the family advisory team that was passing by, and asked with certainty. "Father, that director you mentioned… What can he give me?"

He really couldn't hold it again.

How could that useless Leonard enjoy the position of heir to the Adler family!

One day, he would definitely crush him and stomp hum under his feet.

At this moment, Lockhart heard Luke's words and his face suddenly changed. Then he squeezed his arm. "Shut up!"

Luke was emotionally unstable, and his eyes darkened as he stared at him. "Dad...!"

"In a public place like this, don't talk nonsense!"

Seeing Lockhart's cold expression, Luke retracted his gaze blankly.

"Don't be angry, I just wanted to ask!"

He didn't know what was special about this director, who was treated differently by his father.

... 

At ten o'clock, the last part of the bidding meeting was carried out as scheduled.

The person who opened the bid was still in charge of the consulting agency Zilion.

Currently, Leonhart and Leonard, who sat in the first row, looked at the documents in their hands. The agency and the notary had entered the venue in succession and had started a brief opening speech.

"Everyone, we finally meet again! I'm sure you are very nervous about the outcome of this bidding. As agents, we naturally understand everyone's feelings. In order to maintain fairness, we may still need some time to review everything. Let me first announce the details of the offer. This time, there were 18 companies participating in this bidding..."

With the explanation of the person in charge, the atmosphere in the audience became more tense and serious.

Eighteen companies competed together, but in the end, only three would enter the final stage, namely the auditing stage.

"What? Only three companies will participate in the auditing stage?"

"How can our family fully meet your operating standards if we know nothing about the company? What's even the point of this meeting if we don't deserve to enter the final stage?"

"Right, give us an explanation!"

Company representatives who were told they were not eligible for the review began to protest one by one.

This kind of bidding process is unheard of.

At this time, the person in charge from Zilion looked at everyone calmly, and then he exchanged a few words with his partner, and then said officially. "I know it may be difficult for everyone to accept a result like this. We will present our reasons to each company that we refuse to proceed to the next stage. The document I am holding is the bidding document submitted by various companies. Of course I have the details of each company in it. If you want to see it, you can take it yourself."

When the words fell, many people rushed over.

In the room, the security officers hastily stepped forward to maintain order after a brief chaos.

The company representatives who were roaring loudly at the failure just now started to shut up at this time. 

The documents they were holding were indeed clearly stating the reasons for their failure, either because the tax audit is not qualified, or the company is not qualified.

In short, there are many reasons, but each one is convincing.

The person on the stage was silent for a while, and then continued. "After the client, our agency and notary's review, we have agreed on one company. The company that won the bid is..." 

The man raised his microphone and looked at the people in the room. He then said loudly. 

"We unanimously select and entrust all of our client projects to the company of the Adler family.. Congratulations to Mr Leonard Adler."
