Secretly Married for 4 Years, He Regrets to Tears After the Divorce-Chapter 103: Senior, I Wish You Success in the Bid

Chapter 103: Chapter 103: Senior, I Wish You Success in the Bid

Adrian Lancaster frowned. ’What is this nonsense?’

"Dad, what are you talking about?"

"I’m being perfectly clear. You don’t understand?"

"I don’t."

Adrian Lancaster knew his grandmother disliked Maya Marshall, but he didn’t think she would go so far as to harm her.

He figured the old woman had heard about the farce between the Marshall and Sutton families in the hospital lobby a few days ago. She probably wanted to vent the Sutton family’s anger and was deliberately spreading rumors to scare the Marshall family.

Theodore Lancaster was furious. "With an IQ like that, don’t go around telling people you’re my son."

Adrian Lancaster scoffed, "If cells could choose how they combine, I might not actually be your son."

"You bastard! What kind of nonsense is that to say?" Theodore Lancaster was fuming.

Adrian Lancaster raised his hand to glance at the time, his patience wearing thin.

"The Dreamtide Bay Resort project isn’t going smoothly. I’m busy, and I don’t have time to listen to you lose your temper."

Theodore Lancaster was taken aback, his thoughts immediately shifting to the Dreamtide Bay project.

"The company won the bid just a few days ago. How could there suddenly be a problem now?"

"Business is like a battlefield. Anything can happen until the very last moment." Adrian Lancaster remained calm and composed, pushing the door open and walking into his office.

Theodore Lancaster was silent for a moment. "Are you confident you can win?"

"What do you think?"

Adrian Lancaster hung up the phone. He stood before the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing into the distance, his domineering eyes growing colder by the second.

’No matter how powerful Solis Company’s background is, they can forget about stealing my business on my turf.’

’The Dreamtide Bay Resort can only belong to The Rhodes Group. I won’t just hand it over.’

...

Nearing noon, Wren Sutton received a message from Spencer Sawyer.

[Sorry, I just saw this. I was in meetings all morning and just got free.]

Wren Sutton didn’t expect her senior to go out of his way to explain, and she felt a little flattered.

If it had been that bastard Adrian Lancaster, he wouldn’t have understood any of this. The messages she sent him almost all vanished without a trace.

Wren Sutton stared at the chat window and slowly typed out a line of text.

[It’s okay. Work is more important.]

Spencer Sawyer replied instantly. [Thanks for understanding. In a few days, I’m attending a government-organized bid meeting and need to prepare a lot of materials.]

Wren Sutton: [Good luck. I hope you win the bid.]

Spencer Sawyer: [Thanks. I’ll take all the good luck I can get. The competitor this time is extremely powerful, not some small-time company. I can’t afford to slack off at all.]

Wren Sutton continued to encourage him. [Where there’s a will, there’s a way. Spencer, I believe in you.]

An indescribable satisfaction filled Spencer Sawyer’s heart. [With you saying that, I wouldn’t even be sad if I lost.]

Wren Sutton: [You have to win.]

Spencer Sawyer smiled happily. [Yeah, I have to win. A soldier who doesn’t want to be a general isn’t a good soldier.]

This was the first battle for Solis in Aston. Establishing a firm foothold was crucial for him.

Wren Sutton agreed in her heart. Just as she was about to reply, her phone’s ringtone went off.

She had been about to type, but she accidentally hit the answer key, and Adrian Lancaster’s voice sounded in her ear.

"Let’s have lunch together."

He didn’t mention a single word about what happened after she came out of the operating room yesterday. He acted as if he didn’t care at all, but only Kevin Dawson knew the truth.

Wren Sutton: "..."

’Today isn’t any special occasion. Why would Adrian Lancaster suddenly think to ask me to lunch?’

"I’ll come to your house to pick you up. I’ll be there soon."

Wren Sutton snapped back to her senses. "I’m not home, so don’t come over. I’m out shopping." 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

She didn’t want Adrian Lancaster going to her parents’ house and bothering them.

Adrian Lancaster didn’t doubt her. "Which mall? I’ll come get you."

Wren Sutton politely declined. "Just send me the restaurant’s address. I’ll go there directly."

She knew Adrian Lancaster’s temper. If she didn’t go to this lunch today, he might show up at her family’s house looking for her, which would just cause more unnecessary trouble.

Adrian Lancaster hesitated for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Xylos."

At the same time, Spencer Sawyer received an invitation from an old friend. The restaurant they had chosen was also Xylos.
