Chapter 5 Lhi Resort

• The truth is, I wanted now to back out from this project but I know I can’t. First of all, LHI was not a simple client. Second, I knew what Luna had gone through just to get this meeting. Third, I don’t want to give them a wrong impression about my company, CIC. And lastly, this project has nothing to do with what happened between me and their CEO.
• I shook my head. My twins were very good at choosing their father.
• Jace guided us to a conference type of room. We went straight to the door behind the office table. I already noticed this door a while ago. I thought it was a room specially prepared for their CEO, in case he will bring girls and have sex with them. He looks naughty and has many hookups. I really thought that having a one-night stand was already his hobby.
• I was really shocked when I saw the room behind his office table. As I said, it was a conference type of room. It has a long table, seven office chairs, and a 70” flat screen TV for presentation. I also notice that on the left side of the room, the glass wall was a frosted type that you can use as a whiteboard.
• I was so amazed by this idea! It really maximizes the space of the office. I think I can also do this in my office with some twist of course. I feel so excited about my office's sudden makeover.
• LHI was truly an amazing one, from the looks of their hotel to their offices, I was very speechless about how they work. The impression that I got about them made me more eager to get this project. I am worried though, that if we got this deal, it may complicate things in my personal life.
• Though I was a bit worried about this project, I was still able to present well to them.
• We don’t have yet the design for them because LHI has yet to give details for this project. All we know was that they were now planning to open up a resort here in the Philippines. They did not release any more details about the project. We don’t have any idea where they are planning to put up the resort.
• What I present to them were things about my company, and sample works of our company that were related to hotels and resorts.
• I actually have a design idea for this project. LHI has been one of my dream clients to have, I did some research about them long ago which is why I have an idea on the core or signature design of LHI. Despite that, it will be very hard for me to present something when I had no idea about the project or even just the size of the location of the resort.
• In all fairness, he seems serious while listening to my presentation. There's no hint of any funny business.
• Our discussion regarding this project was serious and professional. And with the flow of our discussion, there's a high chance for us to get this project. I’m not even sure if I wanted to win this.
• "I think we've heard enough. You have a high chance of getting this project. But I can't still guarantee that because I still have few companies to meet." He said in a formal tone.
• I am not really used to his formal tone and business aura. This side of him was very far from his playfulness and naughtiness when I met him in the bar and mall. I really find him not bad to be the father of my twins.
• "We understand Mr. Escarrer. I guess we just have to wait for your decision. It will be a great honor to have this project with us." I said to end this meeting.
• When the meeting ended, we both offer a handshake. When I offer a handshake to Mr. Escarrer, he held my hand more tightly.
• My forehead furrowed. Then I saw him smirk, His face went closer to mine.
• "I'm glad that you are this good. I think it‘s fate that keeps on binding us. Don't you think?" He whispered.
• "So you mean we'll get this project?" I asked him in a whisper.
• "There's a high chance." He told me with the same low voice.
• "Well, I hope not," I said.
• He barely moved away. "What do you mean?"
• It’s my turn to go closer to his face to whisper.
• "To prove to you that it was not fate but just a mere coincidence."
• I removed my hand from his.
• "Bye Mr. Escarrer," I said then smirked.
