Chapter 147
Lily pulled a check from her bag and slammed it onto the table, her tone dripping with arrogance. “Consider this compensation from my fiance. I expect you to keep your distance from Conrad in the future. If not, just know I have plenty of ways to handle your
After delivering her warning, Lily stood up with a sense of pride and walked away. Once the sound of her high heels faded, Moira bent down to pick up all the photos scattered on the ground.
Looking at them one by one, she still could not accept the fact that Virgil was Conrad. However, the check of 1.7 million dollars on the table reminded ber that Virgil lud lied to her.
There was a sudden knock on the door. Moira looked up and saw Baldwin standing at the door.
She quickly put away the photo and the check and stuffed them into the drawer.
“How’d it go!” Baldwin sat down on the chair opposite Moira and looked at her with a smile. It was obvious that he was in a good mood.
The Marrow family was one of the most prominent families among the wealthy elite. Accepting Ms. Marrow’s order would be a tremendous publicity opportunity for Dusk Furnishing. It could potentially open doors to the upper–class circle and clevare Dusk Furnishing’s réputation in the industry. With this chance, Baldwin had a chance to become a leader figure in the field.
Moira’s mind
Conrad.
was in a mess. She did not know how to answer this question. Lily was not here to renovate her house at all. She was here to claim
However, Moira had no idea that Virgil was Conrad, nor did she know that he had a fiancée.
“Moira, you don’t look too good. Did I pressure you?” Baldwin looked at her with concern.
Moira shook her head and said hoarsely, “I don’t think she’ll sign a contract with m
Baldwin nodded with a smile and said, “Dusk Furnishing is just a small company, so it’s understandable that she would look down on it Wealthy families like the Marrows typically hire well–known foreign designers for their renovations. They wouldn’t consider someone like us”
After a brief pause, he shifted the conversation. “However, Mi. Marrow is here because of your reputation. She specifically picked you. Maybe you should try
harder.
“I can’t. Maybe other designers can try. Moira felt overwhelmed
Her head was heavy and painful. She did not know how to organize her thoughts. If Virgil isn’t his real name, is Page also take? If Page is not Virgil’s mother, why did he go on a blind date with me? Why did he marry me!
Before today, they were just an ordinary couple. Moira had seen pictures of him from various points in his life, and the photos looked authentic.
A hint of displeasure flickered in Baldwin’s eyes. He frowned and said, “Moira, you know I’ve always held you in high regard. Dusk Furnishing really needs a client like Ms. Marrow to help us break into the upper–class market. If you feel overwhelmed, you can put your current projects on hold, Take some time off to get back on track, and then you can focus on your work with Ms. Marrow”
Tve already set a time with the other clients. I don’t have any extra time at the moment
said Moira.
“Moira, I’m your boss!” Baldwin suddenly emphasized with a gloomy expression. “This is a mission. Do your best to finish Ms. Marrow’s order, or else…” He didn’t continue.
However, Moira understood. “Orele Ill be fired!”
Baldwin paused for a moment before responding coldly, “I just hope you can focus more on the company. Taking Ms. Marrow’s order would be advantageous for both of us. Moira, Ive always done my best to support you, and I hope you can return the favor from time to time”
