In contrast to the surprise and excitement on the man’s face, Wendy only had confusion written across
hers.
The man did seem familiar to her, but she had forgotten who he was.
When the man saw that Wendy was not going to say anything else, he pointed to himself and said, “It’s
me, Jeremy Morris! I was a couple of months your senior back when you first started work at
Commercial Bank. I taught you most of the ropes.”
Not even in his wildest dreams would Jeremy have imagined he could meet the woman he had
yearned for day and night again.
He had been doing well in his career lately, having secured a large project in the province. Now that he
had been reunited with the girl of his dreams, Jeremy’s eyes shone as he took pride in his success in
both his career and relationship.
Wendy exclaimed, “Oh, it’s you, Jeremy! Fancy meeting you here. It’s such a small world.”
Jeremy chuckled and gave up his spot in line. As he walked toward Wendy, he said, “Wendy, so many
of your colleagues were sad when you resigned. I resigned as well a week after you left.”
Wendy said courteously, “You’re a highly competent man, Jeremy. I’m sure you’ll do well wherever you
go.”
Jeremy chuckled and said gleefully, “It’s not much, but I’m doing alright. My family is in engineering,
and we managed to secure a huge deal in the province through some connections and contacts. I’m
currently in charge of that project.
“Wendy, I’m not sure if you’ve heard of it or not, but it’s the Southface River project back in the
province. The company where I work as a general manager is in charge of constructing a pedestrian
greenway. It’s an investment requiring tens of millions of dollars. We’ll be able to earn quite a bit of
money from it.”
When Wendy heard that Jeremy was one of the many contractors involved in the Southface River
project, her liking toward Jeremy increased a notch. After all, he was working for her man.
“I heard that the outlook on the Southface River project is quite good,” Sally said as she smiled.
Jeremy pretended to smile humbly, but he then said with unmasked glee, “Yeah, did you know that the
largest project in the province is currently the Southface River project? Whoever gets involved even the
slightest with the project will be guaranteed an earning.
“So many people were fighting for the chance to build that pedestrian greenway. Thankfully, my family
had some connections to one of the managers at the real estate agency. It’s how we managed to nab
that deal.”
Jeremy did not mean anything by what he said, but those listening heard a deeper meaning in his
words.
Wendy knew that Jasper placed a strong focus on the company’s integrity. He had emphasized in
multiple meetings that no one was allowed to pull any strings.
All the company’s projects would be subjected to public bidding before they could proceed to the next
stage.
However, from what Jeremy had said, he seemed to have gotten the project through the backdoor
because of his relations?
That was unusual.
The expression on Wendy’s face darkened slightly. She was about to try and find out who Jeremy was
in contact with when Sally spoke first.
“You got this project through the backdoor?”
Sally knew that her son was in charge of the Southface River project, but she did not know how
important this particular project was.
When she first heard from Jeremy that he was a contractor for a sub-project within the Southface River
project, her liking for this person who was working under her son had increased, just like Wendy.
However, she immediately became unhappy the minute she heard he had gotten the project through
the backdoor.
