His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 292 Paula's Stolen Scheme

After a pause, Coco, Andy's secretary turned to the audience. "All of you are judges except for the two

companies bidding for this project. You each can vote for the company which you think has given the

better presentation. The firm with the most votes will be our cooperative partner. Is everything clear?"

"Ok, now that you all know the voting mechanism... Let us all welcome the representative of Dark Blue

Company to demonstrate their proposal first, " Coco announced, looking over to the direction of

Autumn and Paula who were both nodding.

Paula glanced over at Autumn and smirked. Autumn had a bad vibe as her eyelids kept twitching.

Paula stood up with a confident air and began the presentation, sounding a little too enthusiastic. "Hello

everyone, this is our scheme from Dark Blue Company..."

Paula waited for Autumn's reaction. She was dying to see Autumn's response when she saw that Dark

Blue Company's scheme was the same as hers.

Paula showed the PPT slides and illustrated her scheme confidently. She had spent the whole night

before figuring out the idea of this scheme. To her satisfaction, she finally saw Autumn's shocked

expression. Then a panic-stricken Isla tried to get up to say something but she was stopped by

Autumn.

Paula gave a triumphant smile as she continued to illustrate their scheme with PPT. The CEO of Dark

Blue Company who was also present, frequently nodded at her, convinced that he had made a wise

decision to let Paula take over this proposal.

As Paula and her boss were immersed in the joy of their imminent victory, they didn't notice that the

staff in Giant Promise Company were looking at them with sour faces.

Paula naively believed that she would be the winner. But she had no idea that Cloud Advertising

Company had already shown this proposal to Giant Promise Company before. Isla raised her hand to

say something, but Autumn grabbed her hand and pulled her down.

"Autumn, this is..." Isla's voice was shaking. She wanted to cry out and let others know that Paula had

stolen their scheme, but Autumn told her to calm down.

"Take it easy. Don't forget that Giant Promise Company has already seen this presentation. Just wait to

see their response." Autumn suggested, trying to hide her laughter. 'Only people at Giant Promise

Company and we know this scheme. How did Paula get this?' Autumn wondered.

She figured it out at the thought of Leila who had come to her yesterday. 'Could it be possible... that the

two have joined hands to work against me?' she frowned at the thought.

Isla composed herself. 'The people working for Giant Promise Company aren't stupid. Let's wait and

see. It's going to be an interesting show.' She gave a satisfied smile.

"This is... our scheme. I believe that our plan suits the corporate culture of Giant Promise Company

and your activity theme. Therefore, I hope that your esteemed company can give our company the

opportunity, " Paula concluded her presentation. Bill, CEO of Dark Blue Company, applauded first with

a satisfied smile. But the rest sat still, looking at one another. Only when Andy clapped did they also

start clapping but with much confusion on their faces.

"It seems that Miss Pan is well-prepared, " Andy said to Paula. "I'm flattered. Giant Promise Company

is our important client. We endeavor to work out the best scheme for you. It's good for both of us, "

Paula responded smiling.

Paula glanced at Autumn and smiled, as if her scheme had already been chosen.

"Mr. Xu, this scheme..." The people in the audience were not dumb and they all recognized the

presentation. A staff member tried to point it out but Andy raised his hand and the staff member sat

back down without saying a word.

"If you have any ideas, we can talk about them later. Now... isn't it Miss Ye's turn?" Andy looked

towards Autumn. "Mr. Xu, you're a tolerant man. Miss Ye is infamous in this circle for her copying

other's ideas. But now she dared participate in this bidding. I really admire her courage and your kind

consideration." Bill said to Andy.

"Miss Ye, did you copy someone else's scheme this time?" Bill turned to Autumn with a sneer.

"Stop talking nonsense. Your scheme is..." Isla retorted. She was so furious that she almost spilled the

beans. "Never mind. Arguing with you will only degrade myself."

"Did I say anything wrong?" Bill gave a sinister laugh. "Paula used to work in Cloud Advertising

Company. Paula, tell Mr. Xu whether Miss Ye has copied someone else's ideas."

Paula glanced at Autumn, and then looked at Andy. "Miss Ye, I am sorry. But everyone knows about

your plagiarism. If I were you, I would stay at home and lock myself from the outside world..." she said

to Autumn, pretending to look embarrassed.

Paula expected to see Autumn's helpless look. But to her disappointment, Autumn still stayed calm.

"Mr. Wang, I only attach importance to a partner's competence. As long as the proposal is excellent, he

or she could win my respect. Miss Ye hasn't shown hers yet. It's... improper for you to keep attacking

her like that."

Those were big and heavy words coming from the CEO of a company that they were trying to impress.

Bill and Paula were slightly offended but they did not argue further. "Yes, you're right." Bill responded in

an embarrassed voice, unable to look Andy straight in the eye.

"Miss Ye, you may now introduce your proposal on behalf of Cloud Advertising Company." Andy turned NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

towards Autumn.

Autumn nodded at him, and then walked up to the projector. Paula leaned against her chair, waiting to

see Autumn make a fool of herself. But when she read the content of Autumn's scheme, she was in

disbelief.

As Autumn proceeded with her introduction, Paula found that Autumn's presentation was completely

different from what Leila had sent her. Confused, Paula quickly flipped through the pages. 'What the

hell is this?

Has she prepared two presentations? How is this possible?' Paula's heart was beating faster.

During her presentation, Autumn did not even cast a single glance towards Paula. Paula's reaction was

the least that she cared about. It lasted an hour and a half. She focused on expounding her scheme,

which grabbed the attention of everyone in the room. When she concluded her presentation, the crowd

jumped to their feet and erupted into a thunderous and prolonged applause.

Isla gave Paula a smug glance. She was delighted to see Paula's pale face.

"Miss Ye, this is much better than the previous one, " Andy said to Autumn, standing up and clasping

his hands warmly. He emphasized on the words "much better".

"Mr. Xu, you flatter me." Autumn responded humbly and returned to her seat with her laptop.
