Chapter 256 Cocktail Party

Name:The Substitute Bride Author:Mi Lu
But it was the President who invited her, and it seemed impolite to refuse. Thus, Autumn reluctantly nodded her head, "I am honored." She lied.

After Mr. Seiten left, Hoada Masahiro went to Autumn jubilantly. "Miss Ye, you've done an excellent job today. The President speaks really highly of you. It had been the best choice I have ever made in my life, letting you make the project plan."

After the proposal meeting, his supervisor told him immediately that his promotion had become a sure thing.

"You are welcome, Mr. Hoada. It has been my honor to do so." With a faint smile, Autumn said, "Well, about the budget…..."

"No problem, we'll talk into the details later at the party." Hoada Masahiro smiled happily, patting Autumn on her shoulder slightly, "I have to go now."

Suddenly, Autumn did not feel well in her stomach. She had no idea whether it was due to the raw food or not. She went to the restroom.

Sitting in one of the cubicles, she thought of sending Charles a text message with the good news, but decided to just tell him in person. After a while, there seemed to be some noise in the restroom. Autumn heard the sound of the door being locked. She heard Paula's voice first, "Hoada Masahiro, how dare you fool me? "

"How could that be?" Then the obscene voice of Hoada Masahiro followed, "You asked me to recommend you, and I did it. But it was true that Autumn did much better on the proposal. It was the President himself who made the final decision. I could not be the one to blame, could I?"

"You……" Paula furiously clenched her teeth. "What you've promised me was that my company would win in the proposal meeting, but what just happened now? Even worse, I lost face in front of Autumn once again. Aren't you afraid that I'd tell everyone what you've done?"

With a sneer, Hoada Masahiro said, "Paula dear, how could you take it so seriously, what a man says during sex? I did say it to let you participate into the proposal meeting. But it would be too much for me if the failure was due to your lack of skills, wouldn't it? I could not stop you if you want to spill the beans, at all events...... I won't be the only one losing face, you will too."

Autumn held her breath, trying her best not to make a sound inside t

the budget later." Hoada Masahiro left before Autumn had any chance to say anything. Autumn could do nothing but wait.

The host of the party was famous in Japan. However, Autumn seemed to be lacking interest for it. The moment she almost fell asleep, the voice of Mr. Seiten came from behind, "It is boring, right?"

"Mr. Seiten." Autumn stood up quickly and said, "No, I just couldn't get used to parties like this at the moment."

Mr. Seiten smiled, "There are many successful people here tonight. Miss Ye, you have a very accurate grasp of the whole company and I admire you very much. After some time, I am sure that you will be successful."

"Mr. Seiten, please don't make fun of me, how could I......" Autumn raised her hands to show her modesty. Finally, she smiled, "Thank you for your kind words."

"Have a good night." With a smile, Mr. Seiten turned and left.

"Miss Ye." After a few exchanged greetings with the other guests, Hoada Masahiro walked torwards Autumn with two glasses of red wine and handed one to her. "To be honest, I really admire you, Miss Ye."

"You are someone who has good looks, wisdom and a strong working ability." Hoada Masahiro gave generous compliments to Autumn, "I am pretty impressed by your proposal, well, the budget…… would be no problem at all."

"Mr. Hoada, as you know, the employees of my company have paid a lot of efforts to this project, thus……"

"I get it, Miss Ye, actually, whether you can get a bigger budget or not…… depends on you."
