Chapter 32 You Came up With the Excuse Pretty Quickly
"Heh."
Jefferson laughed ambiguously. "You came up with the excuse pretty quickly."
He didn't give Elianna a chance to explain further and instead he mentioned a location.
"Twenty minutes."
"In twenty minutes, I might not be able to..."
Before she could finish her sentence, he hung up.
On the other end of the phone.
"Jeff, are you... angry?"
Albert cautiously asked.
Jefferson lazily threw his phone on the sofa. "If I were angry, you wouldn't be standing right now, but lying flat."
"Hehehe..." Albert forced a laugh, "Don't scare me. I'm easily frightened."
Jefferson didn't respond to that.
Albert observed Jefferson's expression and asked in a softer voice, "You suspected Ms. Gentry had ulterior motives. Why did you still meet with her and let her come here?"
His voice grew quieter and quieter.
Jefferson's lips curled up. "Curious?"
"Ah." Albert lacked confidence.
"She is sexy."
Albert was speechless.
"She's different from Nola. She wasn't sent by the Gentry family."
"Eh."
Albert didn't believe it.
Could Jeff's brain have gone haywire and short-circuited?
Jefferson noticed his doubting expression but remained indifferent. "The news about the bid for Medfolk land has been released, right?"
This suddenly mentioned matter left Albert stunned.
He didn't know why Jefferson suddenly brought this up, but he honestly replied, "I spread a little rumor, saying that you were interested in bidding. My phone was almost blown up with calls."
"That's a juicy piece of meat." Jefferson laughed, "Remember to keep a piece for yourself."
Albert sensed that something was off with Jefferson's smile and felt a chill down his spine, so he didn't dare to respond.
Sure enough, Jefferson's next words were, "As a cemetery."
Albert's knees buckled, and he immediately kneeled, wearing a distressed expression.
