"I'll go with you," Edward offered.
"Aren't you busy?"
"Even the chairman needs a break sometimes."
Jacob took the hint and ended the call promptly. Before signing off, he compiled a comprehensive report on all available storefronts within four blocks of Prosper Stitch Group, detailing rental prices, subway access, and nearby transit hubs.
By midnight, Janice received the neatly organized PowerPoint presentation.
She was impressed by Jacob's efficiency and meticulous attention to detail. As she skimmed through the listings, one location immediately caught her eye.
It was on the left side of Prosper Stitch Group, just a street away. A bustling pedestrian area was only one more street over, and best of all, there was a subway station right at the entrance, with all major transport hubs within a 20-kilometer radius.
It was the perfect location.
The rent was also reasonable, easily fitting within her budget.
Edward walked in to find Janice deep in thought, her gaze fixed on the listing.
"Have you found anything good?" he asked.
"This location is ideal—convenient in every way. But why is it still available?"
"Because I own it."
Janice froze, momentarily speechless.
Edward traced a section of the street map on her tablet. "From here to here—it's all mine."
Her eyes widened. "You own all of this?"
"When I purchased this building, I also bought up the surrounding properties. Back then, the area wasn't fully developed, so the prices were much lower."
Now, the value had soared.
