The Woman From Hell



In order to seize this opportunity, Shannon and I worked overtime at the company every day till late. We finally finished the brand proposal three days before the conference.

Reviewing the content again, we were both very satisfied.

"There are quite a few small and medium-sized companies participating in this conference, though. Should we not edit it since there are so many of them that might be better than us?" This was the first time I had seen Shannon unconfident.

I smiled. "Well, how about we make some copies and have Theo and Jordan look at the proposal separately? We can learn from their strengths," Shannon said suddenly.

"That's a good idea."

I made a copy of the proposal and went home. Townsend had found a place and moved out. The villa felt much more deserted today. I went upstairs and back to the room. Sure enough, Theo was processing documents in the room. When he heard me enter, he looked up with gentle eyes. "You're back."

"Yes. Do you know about the Old Guiding New Brands Conference?" I blinked at him.

There was a clear smile in Theo's eyes. He nodded, "Yes, but Grant Corporation won't be participating." "Why not?"

"Those companies are participating to get more traffic. We don't need it."

It took a lot of confidence to say such a thing, but Theo's non-participation also relieved my nervousness a little. "Okay, I drafted a proposal with Shannon. Will you help us look at it?"

He put down the tablet, crossed his arms, and smiled at me. "You want me to look at it? What's in it for me?"

Seeing the smile on his handsome face, I turned around and inserted the USB flash drive into the computer by myself. "You have to look through it even if you get nothing out of it!"

Theo got out of bed and walked to the desk. He slid the mouse over the screen. The more he looked through the draft, the more his brows furrowed. It made me feel uneasy.

His brows did not relax even when he reached the end.

"What's the matter? Do you think it's bad?" I asked cautiously.

The man's tone was heavy and steady. "Your proposal is very detailed and comprehensive. I can say that you've cleared all my doubts, but..."

I was most afraid of junctures. I exhaled, looked at him, and said, "Just say it. I'm not that fragile."This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

"The content is too much and too

complicated You have a total of 15 pages in your presentation. Also, your presentation will take at least half an hour. There will be many companies at the exchange meeting. It would be great if you're the first to present, but if you go later, it'll be very bad for you."

I could understand what Theo was saying. He was right. Our presentation would be decided by lottery. If we were to present later people would have gotten tired of listening by then and would not be that interested in our proposal.

"So what you have to do is condense and refine your key points. The rest can be removed. What our company values most are prospects, interests, and points that need to be avoided. As long as you focus on these three points, that's enough." Theo even circled the important points in our presentation to facilitate our

reintegration.

I finally had some sense of direction after he pointed everything out. "Okay, I'll organize it tomorrow."

"Five pages maximum. You must get your point across clearly with five pages so that even if your presentation is not as good as others, you can still attract a company in terms of content."

Theo made suggestions from the standpoint of a supporting company, which made me more confident.

"Okay, this way, our chances of winning will be even greater."

"Then, I wish you success in advance, Miss Lane."

I met Theo's eyes and smiled slowly. "I'll hold onto your blessing, President Grant."
