Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1225

Tobias slapped Gia hard while she was distracted. At that moment, he lost his rationality, and the piece of land became a hot potato.

He wanted to sell it secretly, take the money, and run away. He roared with bloodshot eyes and a ferocious face, "I'll destroy whoever dares to block my way to wealth!"

His phone suddenly rang, and he looked at the unknown number in surprise.

A gentle woman's voice spoke. "May I know if this is Mr. Chambers?"

Tobias' expression softened, and his expression changed. He no longer looked like a devil.

"Hello... Yes, I am! May I know who this is?"

"I am Anna Collins, a senior assistant from Aureneil Industrial."

Tobias' cunning eyes lit up. "Anna? Why are you calling?"

Anna chuckled sweetly. "Are you teasing me, Mr. Chambers? Don't you know why I'm calling? What did you inquire about in the past few days?"

"Could it be that your superiors are interested in my land?"

"That's right."

She continued. "Mr. Chambers, my superiors said that the Thompsons are considered a prominent family. Although they can't compare with the four families, they're quite powerful. We heard that they're developing a film studio lately..."

"Yes, yes, yes!" He smiled widely. "The land is just next to the film studio! Tell your superiors that they'll definitely make a profit by buying this land!"

"Sure, sir." Anna chuckled. "They said they'd like to meet you! Which day is best for you?"

Lina couldn't help but laugh after ending the call.

Abigail was picking photographs for the magazine. She tilted her head and glanced at Lina before teasing her. "If you keep this up, you'll have competition in the entertainment industry!"

"No, no! The voice changer gets all the credit," Lina replied.

Lina noticed something off about Abigail today. She was usually career-driven, but she seemed distracted while picking photographs.

"What's wrong?" Lina poked her with her elbow. "Is there romance in the air?"

"You..." Abigail widened her big eyes, making her face look out of proportion.

"Haha, I'll stop teasing!" Lina grabbed her arm. "Tell me the truth. Do you miss Jacob?"

"Not today." Abigail smiled. "Someone insisted on taking me to Jangasas!"

"Who is it?"

Abigail revealed the name of a female celebrity, Carla Clover, her good friend in the industry.

Lina couldn't understand why Abigail was being dragged to Jangasas, but she showed Lina their conversation.

Carla: [Hmm, there's a great aesthetic clinic in Jangasas. Go with me!]

Abigail: [What... There are so many ways to love yourself. Can't you refrain from altering your face? Your face isn't ugly, to begin with!]

Carla: [I wouldn't be wasting money like this if I were as beautiful as you!]

Abigail: [Is there a good aesthetic doctor in such a small place? Don't get yourself into trouble and jeopardize your future!]

Carla: [No, no! There are no paparazzi in that small city. It's a great distraction! Also, I heard that the Thompsons' daughter did plastic surgery there, too!]
