Comeback Of The Adored Heiress

Chapter 1249:

“In that case, I’ll accept this masterpiece for appreciation. And as for what you mentioned, rest assured—since you’ve reached out to me now, I won’t forget you when the time comes.”

His words carried an undercurrent of meaning, but Aldwin misinterpreted them, convinced that Eaton had tacitly agreed to help him. Satisfaction flickered in his eyes.

“I’m relieved to hear that, Mr. Rachford. If anything arises, I won’t forget the coffee we shared today.”

Yet, just two days later, instead of an official partnership announcement with the Perkins Group, the government unexpectedly issued a public bidding notice.

At the Perkins Group headquarters, Aldwin was basking in self-satisfaction while speaking with his subordinates. However, the moment his gaze landed on the government’s latest announcement, his expression shifted. His face went deathly pale.

Without hesitation, Aldwin snatched up his phone and dialed Eaton. The call connected, and Aldwin wasted no time.

“Mr. Rachford, about the development project in the west of Estresa.”

Andrew was sitting across from Eaton, who responded with practiced ease.

“Mr. Perkins, I’m sure you understand. Though I oversee this project, the decision is not mine alone. We must adhere to a rigorous evaluation process for each company. Personally, I believe Perkins Group is capable of handling this development. However, beyond my personal opinion, you’ll need to demonstrate your company’s strength to convince others, wouldn’t you agree?”

Eaton’s words were carefully chosen, leaving room for interpretation. Aldwin understood the implication immediately.

“I see. I understand.” Ending the call, Aldwin gripped his phone, his fingers curling around it as his expression hardened into cold resolve. This was an opportunity he couldn’t afford to lose. If the government doubted Perkins Group’s strength, then he would prove them wrong. Wasting no time, Aldwin ordered his men to submit the necessary project bidding documents to the government’s review department. With Eaton’s endorsement, the process would move forward, and ultimately, the development project would fall squarely into the Perkins Group’s hands.

Once everything was in motion, Aldwin began investing heavily in materials. The business world in Estresa was watching closely—seeing the Perkins family’s proactive moves, many assumed the project was already as good as theirs.

Meanwhile, in Ansport, while Madisyn was busy helping Jared get closer to Lilian, she kept an eye on the unfolding developments in Estresa.

The sudden policy shift immediately caught her attention. Something wasn’t right.

Chief should have already been involved. Could this shift in policy be connected to him?

Just as the thought crossed her mind, an unexpected message popped up on her phone.

It was from Healy.

“Mr. J, I apologize for disturbing you, but I have a question I’d like to ask.”

Madisyn’s eyebrows lifted in amusement at the timing. A coincidence? Perhaps.

Healy was inquiring whether his family should enter the bidding for the development project in the west of Estresa—and more importantly, what their chances of success would be. He even expressed hope that Madisyn might act as an investment advisor for Welch Group.
