NovelEnglishHelen caught Frank and asked jealously, "What were you telling that woman?" "What?" Frank did a double take-was she always this jealous? Still, he chuckled after sthought. "She was invitingto smasquerade ball." "A masquerade ball?!" Helen scowled, certainly aware of what that meant. "So? Did you say yes?" "Why don't you take a guess?" Frank chuckled and quickly fled into the manor.
"Hey!" Helen exclaimed, flustered.
Still, she soon calmed down-she knew Frank, and that he would never go near such places.

Helen flushed, her cheeks burning when she remembered that night.
"Hmph!" She snorted before hurrying into the manor as well.
The manor was filled with people, and everyone was watching one person closely.
Naturally, it was none other than Will Zeller.
He stood on the stairs in his black suit, holding a microphone in one hand and a document in another.
"Everyone, please settle down," he said. "Thank you for coming despite your busy schedules. Our department has reviewed the tenders everyone submitted, and I will now be announcing the successful tenders." That was when Will inadvertently spotted Frank, and he paused for a moment before shaking his head subtly at him.
"Hmm?" Frank was puzzled-was there a problem with Lanecorp's tender? "Alright, for the first land lot..."

Helen was taken aback, but shook her head exasperatedly soon enough. "I knew I shouldn't have trusted Cindy-" "Wait. Something's wrong," Frank said.
He looked at Will, who seemed to be deliberately avoiding Frank's gaze.
Will then looked downward at the crowd and quickly continued, "And bet now, for the second land lot... je o to Mr. Woss of Drenam Limited!" "What?!" "You're being bribed, aren't you?!" goes Hearing that the second land lot went to Drenam Limited too, the Zamri bigwigs were immediately outraged and protested loudly.
They had never even heard of Drenam Limited before this, and they took two land lots in an instant?! It was certainly a joke, as even Zamri's local giants could not best them! mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1 mmMwWLliI0fiflO&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1 mmMwWLliI0fifl0&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1
