Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 160

Chapter 160 Testing Him 

Carol awaited my decision. After some thought, I looked at her and said, “Since he’s already here, let’s 

meet him.” 

Carol smiled. “He might be up to no good, you know.” 

It’s u 

up to us to decide whether to work with them, right?” I said dismissively, “Let’s see what he says.” 

“All right, but please be careful.” Carol left, and I watched her go with a raised brow, feeling fond of her. A 

while later, she led Damian into my office. 

The chubby man appeared to be in his late thirties. He smiled and shook my hand to greet me, “Nice to 

meet you, Ms. Chloe.” 1 

“Nice to meet you too, Mr. Damian. Have a seat.” I gestured toward the chair before my desk instead of 

the sofa. 

Thanks!” He sat on the chair. “I heard so much about you. People keep telling me how well your company 

is doing.” 

I chuckled. “I’m sure every contractor in Foswood has heard of how I almost ran the company to the 

ground. I’m afraid you’re misinformed, Mr. Damian” 

Damian blushed and smiled embarrassedly. “You’re being modest, Ms. Chloe.” 

I asked, “So what can I do for you?” 

“Oh, yes.” Damian dropped his smile. “I’m here to seek your help.” 

He told me Echelon Group had several unfinished duplexes due to particular circumstances in the 

preliminary construction phase. However, other buildings in the same project had been completed and 

handed over. 

The situation was awkward because the more prominent companies were unwilling to handle the units. In 

contrast, Echelon Group didn’t want to risk engaging smaller companies for quality sake. 

Since Tanum Corporation had a good reputation regarding work quality, Damian wanted to see if we 

would handle the remaining units. Moreover, Tanum Corporation used tiles from Surface Solutions and floorings from Clayton Interiors, which other contractors might be unable to secure. 

I considered what he said and noticed he had come prepared. I had just eliminated most of my 

company’s suppliers, except those two that were still undecided. 

Since I only listened and did not say much, Damian couldn’t figure out my thoughts and looked at me 

awkwardly. 

After a moment, I asked, “How many square meters in total?” 

“Oh… there are eight units, each with 4,800 square meters. That makes it approximately 50,000 square 

meters altogether.” Damian looked at me with urgency. It seemed he was determined to make this 

happen. 

In other words, Echelon Group was eager to strike a deal with Tanum Corporation. 

I pondered momentarily before asking, “I’m unsure how much you know about Tanum Corporation, but 

Matthew Murphy has always managed it. However, we got divorced, and I got the company back.”
