“We’re all family here, so there’s no need to say more. Please help me talk to Josie. Lethan spoke in at


    gentle tone.


    Now that Quinn wasn’t interfering anymore, he only wanted to reconcile with his family, but Josie had


    never forgiven him.


    Shania felt conflicted. “Hm, I’ll talk to her.”


    In truth, Josie had long forgiven Lethan. She was keeping her distance from him to avoid involving him


    in the business battle between her husband and Yuriel.


    Although her husband seemed to have a good rtionship with Yuriel, the two men were actually


    sitting on a powder keg


    It wouldn’t just be a simple businesspetition when the day came for them to tear each other apart.


    Yuriel was sipping tea in his office at Evermore Properties. Severalpany executives were fawning


    over him.


    “Mr. Gust’s predictions are simply astounding! You actually foresaw Riverwatch District’s development


    in advance!”


    “Mr. Gust’s business acumen is beyondpare! We can’t even hope to match it!”


    “If we could secure Riverwatch District’s entire market share, Evermore Properties would reign


    supreme in the real estate industry in Rivend!”


    Yuriel drank his tea, his face devoid of the expected joy.


    When he received the news, he immediately contacted the Evermore Properties Real Estate branch in


    Riverwatch District to acquire all the idle properties.


    However, the message from the Riverwatch branch stated that there were no idle properties in the


    entire district.


    After inquiring with the branch manager, it was revealed that someone had bought all the idle


    properties in Riverwatch District three days ago.


    This meant someone had received news of Riverwatch District’s development ns three days in


    advance.


    Who could this person be?


    Thendline was ringing. Yuriel picked up the phone.


    “Mr. Gust, it’s a young man named Carlislel”


    “Carlisle?”


    Yuriel furrowed his brows slightly. “Could it be Carlisle from Rivend University?”


    The voice on the other end said, “That’s him!”


    Yuriel looked bewildered. “How did he know about the development ns for Riverwatch District?”


    “It’s very likely that he has connections in Lumina!”


    Yuriel was about to respond when his desktop phone screen lit up.


    Initially, Yuriel intended to ignore the call, but upon seeing the caller IDbeled “Mayor“, he quickly


    hung up thendline.


    He then swiftly picked up his mobile phone and stood up with a smile. “Mr. Ross. Why are you


    personally calling me?”


    “There’s a bidding conference this afternoon. Can you make it?”


    “Yes, I’ll make time for


    it!”


    “Alright, see you in the afternoon.”


    “Okay, see you there.”


    Even over the phone, Yuriel was nodding and bowing.


    After ending the call with Harrison Ross, Yuriel searched for Carlisle’s number in his contacts.


    However, he couldn’t find it after searching for a while.


    He then instructed thepany’s executives to contact Carlisle and ordered them to buy the properties


    from Carlisle at all costs.


    At Dragonaire Studio, Sunny was sitting in front of theputer, posting advertisements on various


    gaming forums.


    When browsing the Rivendmunity, he saw a very eye–catching post.

    “Latest news: Riverwatch District is about to be developed. The first subway station and high–speed


    rail station in Rivend will be built in Riverwatch District, causing property prices in Riverwatch District


    to skyrocket by more than five times…”


    Sunny suddenly stood up, muttering, “Holy…
