She put the book back and toured Jackson’s study room again. She accidentally noticed that Horizon Properties’s bidding information was placed on the folder on the desk.
The land that Horizon Properties was bidding for this time was very close to the city. Its geographical location had a huge advantage. It could develop resorts or leisure villas. It could also build schools. It was considered a hot piece of land.
Looking at the huge number, it was not difficult for Elaine to imagine that even Summit Group was quite tempted.
The bid Jackson had already been signed, which meant that he had already approved it.
It was already 930 p.m. when she left villa Jackson. She drove out of villa Bayview Shores.
It was ten o’clock when she got home. She passed by the study on the second floor and saw Marcelo sitting in front of the computer through the crack in the door. She didn’t know what he was busy with. He held a cigarette between two fingers of his right hand. The room was filled with smoke. It was obvious that he was very anxious and his eyebrows were tightly knitted.

She did not ask about Valentine Group. She only knew that Marcelo had been back very late recently. She heard from Olivia that he had been socializing every day recently and had drunk himself to death twice.
She raised her head and knocked lightly on the door. Marcelo’s slightly hoarse voice came from the room. “Come in.”
She pushed the door open and called out, “Dad.”
Seeing that it was her, Marcelo frowned imperceptibly and
extinguished the cigarette between his fingers in the ashtray. “What’s the matter?”
She walked over and opened the window. The air instantly circulated and the smoke gradually dissipated. “It’s so late. Are you still busy?“Marcelo grunted and looked down at the information on the computer again. His fingers were typing on the keyboard. “How’s work these past few days?”
“Quite.” She saw that he was busy and prepared to return to her room to rest so as not to disturb him.
His elbow knocked over a document on the table. She walked over to pick it up for him and was about to put it back on the table when she accidentally glanced at the title of the document and her eyebrows twitched.
She looked at Marcelo, who was staring at the computer, in shock.

“Dad, you want to bid for the land in Horizon Properties?”

Marcelo heard her surprised voice and looked up at her. Seeing her shocked expression, he frowned slightly. “This is Valentine Group’s only chance to turn the tables.”
“Dad, the terrain of this piece of land is very good. There will be many companies bidding for it. You should… give up. “She had seen Jackson’s bid. The estimated price of Marcelo was far inferior to his, and the proposal was far inferior to Summit Group. How could he compete?
When Marcelo heard her words, his expression immediately turned ugly as he stared at her with a dark gaze.
She expected him to lash out at her, but he didn’t.
Marcelo threw her a stack of information. It was all about Valentine Group’s current situation. The finance department had already lost more than ten million yuan, and the performance of the other departments was not like before. They were not profitable at all.
The more she looked at it, the more frightened she became. The huge company had almost reached the point of struggling at death’s door.
“If this bid fails, I’m afraid Valentine family will disappear from the business world.” In fact, Marcelo was not confident, but he could only take a gamble.“But-”

Jackson’s bidding plan could be said to be perfect. Not to mention Valentine Group, no company could compare to it.
Moreover, according to Jackson’s plan, the piece of land in Horizon Properties was almost guaranteed to be his. Other companies had almost no chance of winning.
Under Marcelo’s cold gaze, she lowered her eyes, pursed her lips, and said, “But with Valentine Group’s current situation, how can they have so much money to bid?”
Marcelo also seemed to be anxious about this matter. After a moment of silence, he said, “I’ll think of a way.”
