Goodbye, My Love

She was about to message Klein about it when he walked through the door.

“Sorry I’m late.”

“No need. I’ve known Loraine for a long time.”

Klein chuckled. “Oh, of course. Your relationship totally slipped my mind.” Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

Loraine retorted, “We are divorced now. We’re basically like strangers.”

Marco’s upset was fueled by her words.

The air was stagnant, and nobody spoke up.

Klein felt totally stuck between them.

Loraine turned to Klein. “Mr. Moore, the government is signing the contract with Universe Group today. Why on earth is he here?”

Klein’s face contorted into embarrassment.

“Here is the thing. We were hoping that Bryant Group could join in the project too.”

Loraine was shocked and blurted out, “Why?”

Klein let out a weary sigh and explained, “The government has two reasons to adopt the plan Universe Group has proposed. The first is the excellent cultural design concept. The second is that our funds are not sufficient to support the smart city plan of Bryant Group.”

Marco quietly looked at Loraine, expecting to hear her response. But she didn’t bat an eyelid at him. She was Listening to Klein intently.

Klein praised Marco.

“Now, Bryant Group has proposed to invest in the project and provide technological and financial support. The government has no reason to refuse. In fact, Bryant Group and Universe Group have their own strengths. Therefore, we can work together and make the city a better place.”

With that, Klein took out three copies of the contract he had prepared in advance and pushed them toward Loraine and Marco.

Loraine Looked at the papers and frowned. She didn’t utter a word. Her unwillingness to sign the contract was evident.

Things were in a gridlock.

Marco sensed her hesitation and said, “Loraine, I know what happened before has caused you a lot of harm. I will make up for your loss.
