Chapter 150

“No prob, no need to apologize.. other than Matt, you’re the closest and most capable right–hand man

Emmett has.”

“It’s an honor! Without Mr. Melendez’s support, I wouldn’t be where I am today! And same goes for

Matt, if it wasn’t for Mr. Melendez saving him back then, he would be six feet under now”

Clara was caught off guard, “Emmett helped Matt pay off his debts too?”

“No, rumor has it that Matt was caught by the mob because he betrayed his own team, and was about

to kick the bucket when Mr. Melendez stepped in and saved him. Ricardo said, his eyes full of

admiration, “Mr. Melendez is so awesome, if I was a woman, I’d totally marry him!”

After Ricardo finished speaking, he chuckled a little, “Of course, I won’t have a chance to be your rival

in this life!”

Clara sighed, “Being with Emmett is not easy, always living on the edge…

“What did you say? I didn’t catch that.

“Ah, nothing!” Clara waved her hand, “Since you won’t let me treat you to a meal, I’ll speak to Mr.

Melendez about you taking my vacation time for me! You can’t refuse or I’ll feel guilty.”

“Alright then! I’ll follow Mr. Melendez’s arrangements.”

Clara chatted with him about some company matters before heading back to her office.

Just as she sat down, her phone started ringing.

She answered the call, “Hello, this is Clara”

“It’s me!” A soft voice came through, I’m Leah, you remember me, right?”

Clara was stunned, “Of course, I remember you! What can I do for you?”

Clara didn’t think too much about it, she was just surprised.

1..” Leah hesitated for a moment, seemingly having difficulty speaking, “I have a favor to ask! Could

you help me out?”

“Go ahead.”

“This could actually benefit you as well. I’m looking for a partner! I just got back to the country and there

is an issue with our family business here. We urgently need to sell a batch of lumber! I know you work

for the Melendez Group, and I’ve done some research, the Melendez Group is currently in need of

lumber! Ms. Calloway, could you help me out and be a go–between?*

Clara was indeed aware that the company was currently looking for reliable sources of lumber, she

even had some suggestions for selection in the documents she organized this morning.

“This is the responsibility of the procurement department, I might not be able to help much! But I can

mention it to Emmett!” Clara paused, her voice carrying a hint of hesitation, “But…”

“I understand!” Leah immediately responded, “You can rest assured, I won’t be dealing with the

Melendez Group under my own name! You also don’t need to tell Emmett that this is to help me! In

fact, I was worried about this before, afraid that if Emmett saw me, it would spark his investigation into

that matter again! So, after much thought, I decided to use my friend’s company to deal with the

Melendez Group for this batch of lumber! What do you think?”

“Great! Thank you for considering my situation” Clara appreciated Leah’s thoughtfulness, “You helped

me before, I’ve always been looking for a chance to pay you back! This time I’ll do my best to

recommend you to Emmett, but… I can’t guarantee that it will definitely be successful.”
