“Colby, have you lost your mind too? That sewage area worth billions?”
Even if they were using that plot of land for money laundering, it was not worth billions.
Adler made a move to check Colby’s forehead, but Colby swatted his hand away. “The approval fromthe city council came through.”
“Approval?”
Adler scratched his head in confusion. What was going on here?!
Sophic slowly explained, “For the sake of urban environmental protection and greening, the city councilis funding the cleanup of all sewage areas. So, that sewage plot will soon be transformed into a greenbelt, and it won’t cost me a penny.”
Adler was puzzled, “Really? Is there such a good deal?”
Sophie added, “Moreover, based on the size of the land, I will also receive a corporate subsidy worthtwo billion dollars.”

“How much?” Adler stood up
Colby, with a calm demeanor, said, “Additionally, the original landowners around the area were realestate tycoon Stephen. With the transformation of the sewage area into a green zone, Stephen hasalready started new projects, converting the surroundings into upscale residential buildings along with arange of facilities.”

“And Sophie is planning to develop part of this land into a large commercial
Colby spoke unhurriedly, and Sophie raised an eyebrow, “How did you know?”
Colby didn’t answer, but Sophie knew that with Colby’s intellect, this was definitely the best plan hecould think of.

Adler’s previously expectant expression fell. “No fun, I won’t ask anymore.”
Colby’s gaze remained on Sophie. She turned around, and their eyes met, his eyes seemingly smiling.
Sophie quickly looked away. Though it was just a brief moment, she felt her heartbeat skip. She wasoverthinking it, she must be.

At that moment, Colby spoke, “We still have some time. I’ll drive you back.”

Sophie glanced at the time and did not rush to answer, “When did you guys see this approval?”
“This morning,” Adler said. “Why do you ask?”
“If you’ve seen it, others must have too.”
Sophie took out her phone, which had been on mute throughout the drive. Upon turning it on, shefound two missed calls from Perry
