Shane was furious as well. “She’s so disrespectful!” he exclaimed.

However, Terence chuckled and said, “Marilyn, right? How about this? I’ll make a bet with you. Maybe you’ll end up liking this old man later!”
“You?” Marilyn was also quite surprised. She didn’t expect Terence to talk to her like that. But after giving him a once-over, she made a face and said, “Old man, I prefer energetic and handsome young guys. You don’t fit the bill!”
Terence smiled and didn’t argue with her. He simply regarded her as an ignorant child.
She rolled her eyes once again and left the house.
As she was leaving, she bumped into Emmanuel. Suddenly, she realized something and sneered, “Oh, so Red Mosley likes you, huh? You have a good figure, but… you don’t look like a wealthy person.”
Emmanuel frowned, not understanding what she was talking about, while she just chuckled and sped off on a motorcycle.
“That woman. Could she be Red’s sister?” Emmanuel noticed that she bore a striking resemblance to Red, but their personalities were completely different.
However, he didn’t pay much attention to their encounter and went inside to cook.
That night, Terence had a fervid conversation with the old lady. Around 11 p.m., he, Emmanuel, and Shane left Red’s house and checked into a nearby hotel.
After 11 p.m., Mackenzie, who was in Yeringham, received a call from Terence.
“What? Grandpa, you want to invest 150 million in Anchortown?” Mackenzie was shocked upon hearing Terence’s plan.
“Yes. Anchortown is our family’s hometown. Now that we have money, we should return and help the people in the village. They are too impoverished!” Terence said with compassion.
When he returned to the town that day, he realized that the town’s economy had hardly developed in the past decade.
These living conditions were acceptable over a decade ago, but Chanaea had rapidly developed over the past 20 years. Most places successfully escaped poverty and achieved a moderately prosperous lifestyle. So, Terence couldn’t sleep at night, seeing his hometown still in poverty.
