The Woman From Hell
Chapter 2579

A few days after Yard Group issued their statement, many people approached me one after another and asked me to give up on the bidding. I knew that they all came to persuade me at Silas' order. In the end, Silas was still worried that I would take this opportunity to raise Did this not mean that Silas really had his heart set on North Courts and that he really wanted to get it?

my bid, which would force him to obtain North Courts at a high price.

Apart from those minions, Theo was also one of those who came looking for me.

As Yard Group's partner, he also came to persuade me, but I paid him no heed.

I sat before him, calm and composed. "Aren't you worried that your fiancee at home will make things difficult when she replaces out you came to meet me alone like this?"

Theo did not care about what I said and went straight to the point. "Give up on the bidding for North Courts."

I smiled coldly, replaceing Theo's words ridiculous. "Why do I have to give up just because you say so? Who are you to be telling me that?"

"Nothing good comes out of you going against Silas. You know this. It's better if you give up early." Every single one of Theo's words was partial toward his partner and did not seem to have any feelings for me.

Deep down, my heart soured, but I pushed it back and replied calmly, "It's not certain yet who will have the last laugh. Rather than trying to change my mind here, you might as well go back and discuss with Silas how you two are going to win the bid, President Grant." "Even if you're Silas' granddaughter, he won't let you go as long as you stand in his way. Are you aware of this?" Theo's words were coming out faster now and held a hint of anger. Was he worried about me?

With that surmise, I replied to him, "I'm very well aware. I've known Silas' true colors for a long time, but I won't back down. I want to know why North Courts' land is so important to him. I don't want to force him if he doesn't want to tell me. I'm also not afraid to tell you that Nibel will help me. Tyler and Marius as well, so I don't believe that I won't be able to beat him."

"Have you ever considered that even if you win the bid in the end, it'll be a heavy burden on you? The development costs after that are no small amount."

"I have Nibel's help. You don't think I'll be able to afford it?"

I said this because I wanted to let Silas know from Theo that I wanted the development rights to North Courts as well and that I was not just trying to raise the price so that he would be less wary.

Theo looked into my eyes. The anger just now was at present a calmness. When he spoke again, he sounded helpless. "You take care of yourself."

After saying that, Theo got up and left gracefully.

At the same time, the people sitting at the table behind us also left.

I knew Silas would send people to tail me. The people at the table must have heard my conversation with Theo before they got up and walked out. They were a meter away from me, and I only stopped when Theo and they turned into an alley.

Hiding around the corner, I listened to their conversation.

I heard Theo's voice first. "You guys heard it. Wanda Lane doesn't change her mind once she's decided on something."

"We'll inform Old Master Yard about this. Thank you for your help, President Grant."

"Wanda Lane really wants to know why the Old Master Yard wants North Courts' land. She might give up if he indulges her."

Theo really understood me and knew my weak spot.

"We'll report this to him."

After hearing all this, I immediately left the scene to avoid being caught and getting into more trouble.

Perhaps my conversation with Theo today would present some results.

My mind was filled with thoughts as I made my way back. In the end, I came to the conclusion that Silas might actually tell me the reason because of this. Based on what Theo said, I figured that it must have

something to do with me. He

would

not ask me to give up otherwise.

Could it have something to do with my mother?
