“Up to you.” With that, Conner hung up the phone.
Holding her phone, Jennifer immediately took out a pen, paper, and a map. She then started studying the map. An hour later, a look of shock crept onto her face. “Land reclamation?”
She then got very excited.
So far, there had not been any documents or insider information saying that Southwood E-commerce District might have a land reclamation.
It was full of reefs and was a dolphin sanctuary. Generally speaking, it was unlikely that it would be reclaimed for the next decades or so.
However, according to the results of her research on various news, Jennifer had come to a conclusion. “Within three to five months, the 30 square kilometers of the waters behind Southwood E-commerce District will be reclaimed!”
“Steven, get ready to allocate funds. Try your best to order excavators and establish a construction steel sales company, a cement company, and an earthwork transportation company,” Jennifer commanded.
“But Susan…” The newly hired secretary, Steven Hobbs, was stunned for a long time.
“Do as I said,” Jennifer replied. She was feeling uneasy, hoping that her guess was
right.
If she were wrong, there would be no turning back for her.
“Ms. Wilson, Susan’s here.” Steven’s voice was heard from outside of the office ten minutes later.
“Tell her I’m busy.” Jennifer then turned her phone off and turned on the computer to look at the news of the scarlet swan incident.
The internet had gone crazy. All the netizens started off by criticizing Reina for breaking the law by eating federally protected animals. However, the comments soon took a great turn as netizens found out that it was Reina’s ex-boyfriend who first leaked the news.
I can’t believe you reported someone who treated you to a scarlet swan meal just to get back at
her!What a jerk! That’s too much!Poor girl Reina.
Public opinion was changing, and everything was changing according to Donald’s expectations.
Nigel’s purpose was to let the public know that eating scarlet swans was illegal, and he wanted to tarnish Reina’s name. He wanted to wait until Scarlet Swan Villa became a hot potato and then buy it at a low price.
In fact, his plan almost succeeded.
Scarlet Swan Villa might be on the edge of closure if he was not exposed.
Nigel sensed that something was off upon seeing the public opinion change. He immediately made some phone calls to some of the supervision departments of Pollerton Television.
The response he got was that Pollerton Television was getting ready to start a live interview with Scarlet Swan Villa, and the supervision departments would follow along to enforce the law.
Nigel felt his body turn cold.
What is going on? I’ve seen the comments, and clearly had the upper hand. What’s happening right now? Since when did the story become a jerk getting back at his ex-girlfriend?
“What a crazy woman Reina is. In order to get Scarlet Swan Villa, she doesn’t even mind having her reputation ruined!” Nigel mumbled to himself as he switched on the television, trying to see if there was anything he could do to salvage the situation.
He was very determined to get Scarlet Swan Villa.
As soon as he turned on the television, Nigel saw the live interview.
In front of the camera was a vast farm that employed natural farming, and the scenery was incredible.
Reina greeted the assigned reporter and the members of the relevant supervision departments.
Aside from Pollerton Television, there were other platforms going on live broadcast. The comments started flooding in.
D*mn. I didn’t know Reina was this young. Reina wouldn’t be in such a situation if it wasn’t
for the jerk!Actually, I think Reina’s quite pitiful. She was stabbed in the back by a scumbag and ended up like this.
Nigel’s brows twitched as he read the comments. He cursed in his heart that these people were fools.
Meanwhile, Reina pointed at the back as she said, “This is Scarlet Swan Villa that’s located in Xendale. The investment in it is nearly three hundred million.”
The reporter then started to question Reina. “Ms. Wilson, are you aware that it is illegal to breed or eat scarlet swans?”
