<b>Chapter </b><b>285 </b>
Mnie’s mind was in <b>a </bplete mess. She took a deep breath when she arrived at the vi’s door<b>, </b>and she calmed her emotions down.
She bumped into Xander the moment she got out of her car.
Xander looked tired, and he was surprised to see Mnie.
He frowned when he saw her. He asked, “How’s the situation with your grandfather?”
Mnie replied, “I’ll figure something out.”
“I’m sorry. This is my fault.” Xander sighed softly.
It had been years since he returned to the Solomons, and it had been a long time since he was in contact with any of them. This time, he had returned because of work.
He remembered that his aunt was acquainted with the Hendersons, and he called her to ask for help. Xander did not expect Charlie Henderson to reject him immediately.
“I’m already grateful that you’re willing to help,” Mnie said. “But this is my problem. I’ll figure something out on my own.”
Her grandfather’s problem had nothing to do with Xander. Mnie was already filled with gratitude for him because of his offer to help. There was no reason to me him for anything.
She pressed her lips and was suddenly reminded of what Reny had told her. Her expression turned grim as she asked Xander, “Reny told me that the finance exhibition has been canceled?”
Xander looked upset at the mention of this.
He was suddenly called into a meeting while on his way to the hospital because of this.
All negotiations had been done for the exhibition, and all that was left was the signing of the contract. Things were about to be set in stone when their potential business partner decided to use anotherpany.
Mnie looked at Xander, and her heart sank as well. “Did they tell you the reason?”
“It’s difficult to say. Things might be a littleplicated.” Xander was troubled over this.
“Thepetitor wants to get involved with this project and has even gotten many proposals from multiple businesses in Jepton. There’s sort of a standoff right now.”
The finance exhibition was part of a project to push economic development and socialization. They would be more inclined to pick thepany that had more support from other businesses.
However, this would mean that Xander’spany would not be in consideration to work on the exhibition.
Reny and Yvonne were already in the living room of the vi when they walked in.
Everyone knew a little about Mnie’s family issues. Reny could tell that Mnie was not in a good ce. She poured Mnie a cup of water. “You should have some rest, Mnie.”
Oliver looked at Xander. <b>“</b>What exactly is going on?”
They had received news about <b>this </b>in the afternoon but could not ask about it as they were not able to get a hold of Xander.
“Anotherpany is eyeing this exhibition and has already gotten support from a few
businesses in Jepton. They’re now in the running to get this contract.” Xander repeated what he had shared with Mnie in a calm manner.
Something felt wrong about this to Oliver. “We’ve alreadypleted the proposal and submitted it. It’s not a suitable time for them to be considering anotherpany, isn’t it?” “That’s why they want to work with bothpanies.”
This caused a hugemotion among them. “Work together? They’re clearly here to take this project from us. Are they hoping for us to hand over the proposal so they can put their name on it?”
The exhibition proposal had thepany’s stamp on it. Whosepany came on top would affect their credibility.
All of them wanted to take the main credit. Moreover, this proposal was put together by them and Xander, but things were going to getplicated when thepetitor wasing at them so aggressively.
Moreover, this was a governmental project. If they could pull this off sessfully, it would benefit them greatly.
That was why they were not willing to let go of this opportunity so easily.
Xander was silent. Mnie listened to all of this and suddenly asked, “Is LeapCo one of the businesses that are supporting them?”
