The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 149

"The Blanchet Corporation reached out to us first. Their CEO, your old pal Mr. Blanchet, seems to have taken a liking to our building's design. He's insisted on having the building's designer, Moon, design their new Blanchet Corporation building."

Ellinor frowned. Moon was her alias.

On hearing this project was related to Theo Blanchet, Ellinor was firm, "We're not taking this project!"

"But the Blanchet Corporation is willing to pay such a hefty design fee!" Chase gestured with his fingers.

A billion?

Ellinor almost choked on her coffee...

That's a hell of a lot of money!

Crescent Society was still a newbie and was currently expanding. Despite the company's market value increasing, it didn't have much cash on hand.

A billion...

It was too tempting to resist!

Chase and Ida exchanged glances, sensing that Ellinor seemed to be swayed.

Seizing the opportunity, Chase added. "It's up to you; this project hasn't reached the contract signing stage yet!"

After some thought, Ellinor quickly changed her mind, "Let's take the project!"

Chase asked curiously, "Why won't you meet him? If he knew his wife was the building's designer, he'd certainly see you in a different light. Who knows, he might even fall head over heels for you!"

Ellinor said expressionlessly, "Once our collaboration is over, there will be no further contact! It goes for you guys too; don't have any personal dealings with him apart from work, and don't let him know about my relationship with you guys and Crescent Society!"

Chase was puzzled, "Why are you so adamant? What if you two fall for each other during your three-month agreement..."

"No way!" Ellinor cut him off seriously, then asked, "When is Mr. Blanchet expected?"

Ida glanced at her watch, "Anytime now, he should be here soon."

Just as she finished, the secretary knocked on the door, "Ms. Gipson, Mr. Larios. Mr. Blanchet is here."
