“Me too,” Cameron and Sunny said simultaneously, echoing Owen’s suggestion for Carlisle to only pay for his living expenses.


    Carlisle smiled and responded, “It’s the thought that counts. Your sries are merely a fraction of the cost. Let me handle the money, so don’t sweat it!”


    After hearing his reply, Cameron and Sunny had no choice but to relent.


    Carlisle intended to ask Lethan to help him rent an office building after lunch. Just as he took out his phone, Lethan called him first.


    “Carlisle, do you know Gareth Spencer?”


    “Was he looking for you?” Carlisle questioned doubtfully.


    “He asked me about you!” Lethan sounded guilty.


    “Then, tell him about me,” Carlisle said with a faint smile.


    It was expected for Gareth to do so. After all, they had only just met. Gareth could not just rely on Carlisle’s advice and give up on the business he had risked everything to invest in.


    Lethan sighed in relief.


    “I did tell him a few things. I was even worried that you might be angry!”


    Carlisle chuckled wryly.


    “It’s not like I’ve done anything illegal. Why would I be angry? Besides, I’ve already met Gareth. We must maintain our rtionship with him.”


    Lethan remained silent momentarily before asking, “So, you knew who he was<b>?</b>”


    Carlisle cleared his throat.


    “No. But I do know that he’s very wealthy!”


    Lethan lowered his voice and exined, “He’s not just anyone!”Property of N?)(velDr(a)ma.Org.


    Carlisle feigned surprise.


    “What do you mean?”


    “He’s very likely the grandson of the former leader of Yorksle!” Lethan had only guessed it based on Shein’s tone.


    There was no way of knowing if it was true.


    *Then, all the more reason we should leverage this connection,” Carlisle replied with a smile.


    “Exactly. That’s why I gave Gareth some advice before leaving.”


    say<b>?</b>


    “I said if he wants to recover his losses, he can invest in our business, Holly Fisheries!”


    “Good idea!”


    Carlisle beamed while responding<b>.</b>


    Then he inquired, “I want to <b>rent </b>an office building. Do you have any rmendations?”


    “Oh, you’vee to the right person. Shania Just finished constructing an office building and is renting it out. It’s located opposite Times Square. If you’re interested, you better hurry over there now. If you go anyter, there may not be any space left.”


    “Alright. Then, I’ll go check it out now.”


    “I won’t apany you there as I’m a little busy over here. But I’ll give Shania a call,”


    After ending the call with Carlisle, Lethan called Shania. However, she did not answer the call.


    At the same time, the secretary knocked on the door, saying, “Mr. Warbane, Mr. Zahn from Rhonwen Construction has arrived!”


    Lethan frowned slightly.


    “Then, he should’ve gone to the project department. Whye to me?”


    The secretary whispered, “The project manager has gone on a business trip. He will be overseas for two weeks!”


    Lethan sighed helplessly before replying, “I thought Rhonwen Construction did not qualify.”


    The secretary responded, “He said he has intentionally upgraded thepany’s qualification for the sake of our project. Now, he has more than enough workers!”


    Lethan hesitated briefly before saying, “Bring him up then.”


    He did not have much time left. He could lower the threshold for the construction team to advance the greenhouse aquaculture’s progress.


    A whileter, Gerard arrived outside the office and knocked on the door while carrying some cigarettes and alcohol.


    Lethan evenly said, “Come in!”


    Gerard beamed while walking into the office, nodding and bowing.


    “Mr. Warbane, nice to meet you. I’ve prepared some gifts as a token of my appreciation!”


    Lethan was busy signing documents. Upon hearing that Gerard had brought some gifts, he lifted his head to look at them before smirking.


    “Are you trying to win me over with some gifts?”


    Gerard trembled a little before stammering, “M–Mr. Warbane, this is a gesture of goodwill. I don’t have <b>any</b>


    other motives!”


    Lethan lightly replied, “Let me see the qualification documents. If it meets our requirements, perhaps we can work together.”


    On the streets opposite Times Square <b>was </b>a new 18–<b>story </b>office building adorned with festive.


    decorations.


    This building was called the Windex Building.
