Buddy looked at Victor doubtfully. He had met Victor at Upper East Sleglund with Delmont the other night.
Buddy said, "You asked me who the previous legal person was."
Victor said, "That's right. I had asked you that last time but Delmont didn't want to answer my question. I can now tell you who the legal person of the land is."
Buddy became nervous when he heard that. Did they make a mistake and trusted the wrong person?
Victor couldn't bear to look at Aisling’s pale face. She seemed to have trusted the wrong friend this time.
Victor said slowly, "The legal person of this piece of land is the cousin of your friend's husband, Aunt Clement. They bought the land together but realized that no matter what they build they would not be able to profit after estimation. Moreover, the start-up capital is very huge and it is hard to get a bank loan. Since the people in the industry have kept this matter a secret, many outsiders are unaware about this.
They resell the land because his wife knows you,
Aunt Clement.
You did make a lot of money when you invested in real estate for the first time. It was a bait from the beginning. If I was right, your friend urged you to buy that piece of land after you had made money. However, you didn't know that the land was problematic.
Even if you build a residential building, it can't exceed ten stories. That is all the information we know at the moment.
These are just the basics. If you want to know about the specifics, you can ask Mr. Calder."
Aisling's face turned pale when she heard that.
Victor was right. Her friend instigated her to buy the land after she had earned some money. They had known each other for a long time and Aisling had witnessed her friend's family making a lot of money.
That was why she dared to invest. She had earned some money when she invested for the first time. The clothing business of the Clement family was in a bad state and it was not easy to do other business. They had discussed changing their line of business. However, she was too simple-minded and had no knowledge of real estate.
No wonder Zaiden was unwilling to meet her.
The news was also a blow to Buddy.
He had never thought that the inside story would be so deep. The Clement family agreed to buy that piece of land after discussion because it was located in a commercial area and they were optimistic about the prospects there.
It was just a street away but why was it so problematic?
Aisling looked at Victor anxiously and said, "Victor, you have to help me this time. I've used all my family assets. The Clement family will be doomed if we can't build a house there."
Victor sat quietly and looked down with no expression on his face, causing everyone at the scene not able to read his thoughts.
When Aisling saw that Victor was indifferent, she spoke hurriedly, "Victor, say something."
Anson looked at Aisling sympathetically. The Clement family already had enough money but they were greedy for more. The land seemed to have great commercial value. However, they spent all their entire family assets on the land before doing any research on the inside story.
