Chapter 91 The Second Bid Meeting Begins!
The next day, 9 o'clock in the morning
Today happened to be the second bid meeting between Ryder, the Johnson family, and the Windsor Group.
As per the agreement, today Sarah's company needed to provide the building materials required by Maple Real Estate! If they failed to do so, they would have to accept the consequences stated in the agreement.
Both the Johnson family and the Windsor Group were eagerly awaiting this.
They were looking forward to seeing Ryder and Sarah make a fool of themselves!
To maximize the impact, they cleverly chose Sarah's branch office as the venue for this bidding collaboration meeting.
Maple Real Estate didn't object.
At this time, Sarah's branch office building had already gathered quite a crowd. They were on the first floor in the office area.
Besides the remaining seven employees under Sarah, the employees who had resigned in the past few days had also arrived.
According to their plan, once Sarah failed in the bidding process, the branch office would come under Andy's control, and they could continue working here. As for these seven useless employees under Sarah, they could just get lost!
Over twenty ex-employees were sprawled all over the office chairs and desks. Some were playing games on their phones, and some were sitting on desks smoking, completely disregarding the fact that it was the office area.
Emily couldn't bear to see this and frowned as she reminded them, "This is Sarah's company, not a place for you to destroy."
In response, the ex-employees showed mocking expressions and said:
"Can't you see that starting today, this company will belong to Andy?"
"That's right! We will call the shots in this office area from now on. As for you, think about where you'll end up in the future!"
"I'm sure Andy will win the bid today. Once he does, half of the Houston building materials market will be ours. With just a word from Andy, do you think any of you can find a job elsewhere?"
The representative of these ex-employees, Bailey, was especially harsh with her words. "Hmph! So, you guys like that slut Sarah, huh? Well, when she starts working for free for the Johnson family, you all can join her too. No salary, no problem. You all can become part-time whores. After all, you're young, and it suits you!"
This statement infuriated Emily and the other six individuals!
Bella said in a deep voice, "Bailey, do you have no conscience? Sarah has treated you so well, and yet you dare to say such things!"
Bailey snorted coldly and adopted an indifferent attitude. "So what if I said that? The victor is the king!"
However, she was struggling inside. She knew how much Sarah had helped her. She understood that resigning was an act of betrayal toward Sarah, but everything changed because of that incident!
Two nights ago, she got drunk while accompanying Andy at a dinner party he had organized. The next day, she woke up to find herself lying in Arturo's bed!
At that moment, her whole being was in a state of disarray and dishevelment!
And that's not all!
After she was drunk, her boyfriend was worried that something might have happened to her. So he sent her a WhatsApp video call request. It was Arturo who answered it!
He even did a live stream right in front of her boyfriend!
As a result, despite their upcoming wedding, they broke up on the spot!
For Bailey, it felt like the sky was about to collapse!
She had sought help, but Arturo simply threw $20,000 at her and left.
He even threatened to ruin the rest of her life if she caused any more trouble!
Bailey could only keep quiet and turn to Andy for solace.
Andy simply said that once they secured this bid, he would make her the manager.
He also promised the other female employees who had sacrificed themselves that they would all become small leaders.
That would help bury this incident.
But Bailey was already heartbroken.
After her breakdown, groundless ideas emerged in her mind.
That is, all of her current sufferings were not her fault but Sarah's!
If it weren't for Sarah, she would never have fallen into such a situation!
As for her boyfriend breaking up with her, it was his fault for not being able to tolerate his own girlfriend being with someone else!
It wasn't that she wasn't good enough; her boyfriend simply didn't deserve her!
With this thinking, she no longer felt guilty!
Instead, she looked forward to her future success and witnessing Sarah's even worse fate after losing the gambling agreement.
Only then would Bailey find some balance.
Meanwhile, in the conference room on the second floor
Representatives from Maple Real Estate, the Windsor Group, and the Johnson family had already arrived.
In addition, there were many building material suppliers from Houston there.
Some of them had worked with Sarah and came here to witness her embarrassment!
Most of them came specifically to obtain firsthand information.
Whoever wins the bid from Maple Real Estate today, they will try their best to please them!
It was a battle between the Johnson family and the Windsor Group.
As for Sarah?
She had long been excluded!
Among those present, Andy was the most confident!
In these few days, he first secured $6 million from Sarah, then poached employees from Sarah's company, and even closed many big deals in the Houston building material market!
Now, in terms of building material supply, Andy might not be able to compare to the Windsor Group, but the gap between them had been greatly narrowed!
So today, there was a high chance of winning the bid!
He would become the only heir of the Johnson family, the future head!
Then it would be easier to control and humiliate Sarah and Ryder!
With this in mind, Andy glanced at Sarah and said, "There are still a few minutes before the meeting. How come you're the only one here today? Where's that useless Ryder?"
Sarah frowned, feeling a little impatient. "How would I know where he went!"
Thinking of Ryder made Sarah angry!
He went to the bar with another woman, leaving her behind and not coming back all night!
And on such an important occasion today, he still hasn't shown up!
She should divorce this irresponsible man!
Andy immediately understood what was going on and sneered, "Oh! Having a fight? As expected, Ryder is a coward. Despite all his arrogance three days ago, he won't dare to show up today. He's probably hiding in a trash can, afraid of being found!"
Sitting across from them, Elena frowned, looking very displeased. "The terms of the bet agreement are very clear this time. Ryder must be involved. If he doesn't come, who will fulfill the bet agreement?"
At this moment, Abigail interrupted, giving Sarah a wicked look and saying, "It's simple. If Ryder is too scared to participate, doesn't he still have his wife? After all, they are legally married and have a responsibility to bear together! Am I right, Sarah?"
