After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire -
Chapter 343 A Kick-off Meeting
It took her quite a while to collect herself.
Enduring the sore body, she washed herself up, got dressed and put on makeup. Her feet trembled badly when she struggled downstairs. She felt like she almost stumbled down the stairs. But she still managed to fake a composed look as usual when seeing Max. She walked over to the table and sat down for breakfast.
As soon as she was seated, Max hurried to present the breakfast.
"Cake?" Hannah looked a bit surprised.
Commonly speaking, Max always prepared breakfast of abundant kinds. However, there was only a piece of cake and a glass of milk for today, which was rare to see.
"It was specifically required by Mr Wells before he left." Max explained.
It suddenly occurred to her that it must be the cake he brought to her front last night. They didn't even touch it last night. But Hannah happened to be hungry right now. What was more, she didn't have dinner last night. Nor did she fill her own belly after having sex with him. Whatever, Hannah picked up the fork and started eating.
It tasted nice.
"Max, did you make the cake yourself?" asked Hannah as she noticed that the cream on top of it was roughly shaped. It didn't look like one of those sold in a fancy cake store.
"No, it's Mr Wells who made it himself." Answered Max.
Hannah was a bit surprised.
Max then added, "Actually, he has returned home yesterday afternoon. Sorry, Mrs Well, I didn't mean to lie to you."
"Never mind." Hannah smiled.
"He started decorating the room and making cake as soon as he arrived home. He made it all by himself, including baking, whisking the cream and shaping it."
"I didn't expect he knew how to make a cake."
Obviously, the cake didn't look like his very first try.
Hannah had ever planned to learn bakery before. Making cake was her first try. However, the cake wasn't flurry enough and the cream wasn't smooth enough. As for the cream shaping, she could hardly deal with it. So she could tell from the taste and shape that Oscar must be experienced.
"After all, Mr Wells tried to..." Max suddenly paused.
Hannah turned to take a look at him.
"He tried hard to prepare a surprise for you last night." Max smiled.
Hannah felt that Max had kept a secret from her but she didn't intend to ask further. Since Oscar didn't want to inform her of it, she wouldn't be likely to push Max.
"When did he leave this morning?" asked Hannah to change the subject.
"Six in the morning."
"Have you seen him off?"
"No, I just walked him out of the door. It was Jimmy who saw him off."
"Did he..." Hannah didn't finish her words.
"Mrs Wells, I am sure he must be missing you." Max hurried to say.
But actually, it wasn't what she intended to ask.
"I mean... did he look tired when he left?"
"No, he looked quite energetic when going downstairs. He seemed to be in a hurry to leave. So he trotted out of the door. Mrs Wells, don't worry. Mr Wells will take care of himself." It was so unfair, Hannah thought.
"Mrs Wells, do you want more for breakfast?" asked Max when Hannah finished the piece of cake.
"No, thanks." After that, Hannah cleaned her own lips and set off to the office.
"Mrs Wells," said Max. Then he brought over a glass of nutrient drink, "Mrs Wells, Master Oscar required you to drink it before work."
But actually, she felt like her stomach was being fully stuffed at this moment.
"He told me that it will be good for you. It will help to refresh you." Before Hannah was about to refuse, Max suddenly continued.
Hannah got speechless. Of course, a glass of nutrient drink was far from enough to refresh her.
"Mrs Wells?" Max looked a bit awkward when noticing that Hannah remained speechless.
But Hannah still took over the drink and drained it all. Though Oscar didn't know much about what she needed, she still felt moved by his care. After that, Jimmy drove her to the office as always. "Has he boarded the plane?" asked Hannah. As Max just said, it was Jimmy who drove him to the airport.
"Yes, the plane will take off at 8:20 AM. And he arrived at the airport at 7:30AM." Answered Jimmy.
"Okay."
Then Jimmy remained silent. It seemed that Oscar didn't tell Jimmy anything special, she reckoned.
As soon as Hannah reached the office, Rose hurried over, "The kick-off meeting for project South Bay New Town will start at 3:00 PM at the construction site. We are all invited. The secretary department for Mr chairman noticed me that you should attend the meeting together with the chairman."
"It's just a simple kick-off meeting, isn't it?" asked Hannah.
"No, the meeting will present the rules for public bidding. So it's said that most of the companies in Kensbury City will attend. Based on fair standard, most of them are also invited."
"Okay, I got it. Now you may tell the chairman office. I will attend the meeting with him." "Okay." Then Rose left.
Sitting on the chair, Hannah didn't feel like doing anything. Her mind was overwhelmed with the memory of South Bay New Town project. This time, she swore she would never let the Sawyers win the game. While thinking, she somehow thought about Oscar. He needed to spend a few hours on the plane, she supposed. The flight should be halfway. She put down her phone after failing to connect with his. She took a deep breath. Obviously, she was greatly bothered by love. She convinced herself to get back to work. After all, he wouldn't be likely to return in half a year.
She turned on the laptop and forced herself to work.
At 1:20 PM, Hannah got into the car to set off to the meeting together with her father.
"Hannah, what do you think about this project?" Miguel suddenly asked.
"I mean to take it." Hannah answered.
"Well, but I am afraid a heated competition will be expecting us today. Don't let your guard down." Miguel reminded.
"Okay." Hannah nodded.
During her previous life, she was being too merciful when dealing with the Sawyers. That was why they took away all the profit. But this time, she swore she would revenge on them all.
