Chapter 35 Beat Oswald at His Own Game
The instant I walked out of the elevator, Oswald froze and quickly came to himself, making small talk with a woman. He didn’t introduce the woman to me but walked her to the elevator like a gentleman.
I couldn’t help but shoot another glimpse at the woman, who was elegant and seemed to be from a noble family
She looked at me, grinning slightly. The door of the elevator closed slowly.
“Who’s she?” I asked.
“Just a client!” Oswald answered briefly, put his hand on my shoulder, and asked, “Where have you been?”
It seemed that he had kept an eye on where I was. His question sufficiently revealed that he knew I had gone out.
I chuckled and gave him a naughty look, saying, “I won’t tell you!”
Until the end of the workday, Orlando didn’t return to the company the whole day.
The next day, Orlando secretly sent the information I wanted to my office- with a look hard to describe.
“Cassie… I… Please don’t put me in a difficult situation. I…”
Actually, I knew what he meant. He was afraid that his misdeeds would be grassed on for one thing and that Oswald would know about his betrayal.
“It depends on what you’re gonna do. You can leave now!” I said coldly,

Suddenly, I thought of the woman yesterday, so I quickly stopped Orlando, “Help me snoop around about the woman who came to the company to meet Oswald before the end of the workday yesterday. Let me know about her identity and her phone numbers.”
Orlando turned around tiredly and left.
I was probing against time for more information about the woman. Meanwhile, the woman was also flooding me with Line messages by friending my Line account since I ignored all the text messages she sent
- me.
I noticed that Oswald seemed to have known something. Maybe the bitch had said something, so he began to keep an eye on me. I was sure that Orlando dared not be a blabber mouth.
In the afternoon, upon Oswald’s return from outside, he asked Orlando and I to go to his office. Then he provided me with the information about some clients for review and asked me to give him feedback.
I had a feeling that he must be testing me since I had carefully looked through the information about the clients. I found that they all had good enterprise qualifications, some of which were indeed big corporations.
After going through all the information, I called Orlando in, who sneaked into my office like a thief. I smiled at him, “What are you doing? Do you have to act like a thief when walking into my office?”
“Ca… Cassie, don’t be hard on me. Mr. Price has eyes in the company. I come to your office so often that he will surely be suspicious,” Orlando showed a sad face.
I cursed thousands of times in my heart, “I didn’t expect Oswald to be so damned. He must have regarded me as an enemy within.”
My eyes strayed to Orlando and then I said to him, “You can tell Oswald

that I asked you for the information of the clients.”

“No, Cassic, I won’t. Don’t worry. I swear I won’t do that!” Orlando didn’t understand what I meant and quickly swore to me, scratching his head with great anxiety.
“I mean what I said. Just do as I asked you.” I had already realized Oswald’s giving me the information was just a sham.
Orlando was at a loss for words.
“Tell me the truth. What are these clients? Which one is the most valuable?”
Orlando looked at me hesitantly and told me the truth. The truly valuable client wasn’t in the list of clients Oswald gave me but in his own hands.
Later, I asked Orlando to tell Oswald what I wanted Oswald to know, setting up a trap to beat Oswald at his own game.
At night, on the way home, I discussed with Oswald about the clients, asked him for his advice, and told him about my opinions in high spirits. He seemed to listen to me carefully, and I told him I think Broadray Vision is the most potential one to collaborate with.
Orlando had told me secretly that Broadray Vision was the most unlikely large client to be collaborated with.
The reason why I did that was to reassure Oswald that I was still the silly dupe who liked to crack a hard nut no matter how difficult it was.
Of course, there was another reason why I chose to do that.
The next day.
Broadray Vision held a bidding meeting. After the screening, we Prosper Materials got the chance. I offered to compete for the bidding and Oswald arranged for a so–called assistant to help me. I knew what he was aiming

Broadray Vision was a multinational conglomerate, located in the central business district of River City. It was said that the whole building belonged to them.
It wasn’t until I stepped into the building that I realized why Orlando told me Broadray Vision was the most unlikely one for us to collaborate with.
