Suddenly, Hart burst out laughing in anger, tossing the contract aside. Pages of blank paper rained down from above. Then, he turned and left, saying as he walked away, "Molton, you're ruthless. Let's see how this ends for you this time!"
Wilbur stood there, stunned. Molton bent down to pick up the pages of the contract, tidying them up before he handed them to Wilbur, saying, "Mister Penn, please sign here."
"Uh…" Wilbur hesitated for a moment before asking, "Mister Molton, how about we discuss the terms again? Maybe I can raise the number a little."
"There's no need for that. Since we've agreed on the price, we'll just stick to it," Molton replied.
Wilbur signed the contract and watched as Molton left with his people.
The tension dissipated in an instant. Wilbur wore an incredulous expression as he said, "This power play… It's truly unbelievable."
In the afternoon, Korlyn was caught in heavy rain.
At a pier by the seaside, Molton stood inside a gazebo. Haron approached with an umbrella, entering the gazebo before he glanced at Molton and asked, "What do you want from me?"
Molton looked into the distance that was obscured by rain and mist over the sea with a calm expression, saying, "Haron, let me ask you, are we good friends?"
"Of course. Why are you suddenly asking me that?"
"What kind of person is Kearson? Why can he have such wealth while we are forced to live aimlessly like this? When can we drive luxury cars and live in mansions?"
