Tobias was at a loss for words.
"You don't need to be troubled, Mr. Chambers," Neil said with a smile. "There are many illegal businesses in Southern Aciatic that are thriving! So, as long as it's a profitable venture, it's all good!"
"Absolutely!" Tobias became enthusiastic. "Didn't I mention that the land belongs to the Thompson Group? They wanted to build a film studio, but I personally believe it's better suited for a residential area. It will definitely be valuable in the future!"
"So, they disagreed with your proposal?"
"Sigh… That foolish Nicholas spoils his wife when he's not out fighting. He knows nothing about running a business!"
Tobias' tone was filled with disdain, and Neil felt angered as he listened. "So, Mr. Chambers, did you take it for yourself then?"
"Not... exactly." Tobias felt his lips dry. "Bro, the film studio occupies a large piece of land. It's not like anyone would notice if I used some of it for houses. Does that really count as stealing?
"Besides, it's a way to make a fortune! Who wouldn't want to make money? This piece of land isn't even in the film studio's blueprint! Nicholas probably forgot about it. What's the harm in using it?"
"Ha, but I heard he was planning to build an orphanage," Neil said.
Neil glanced at Tobias, exuding a cold and overbearing charisma even through his sunglasses.
Tobias lowered his head and admitted, "Yes... I know, but what's the point of building an orphanage? It doesn't generate money. They're just throwing money away. Only Nicholas would manage to run a loss-making business!"
"Um... Sir, is there anything else the CEO would like to ask?" Gia interjected, impatient to proceed. She had prepared the agreement and pen. "Let's sign the agreement if there are no more questions!"
"Yes, yes!" Tobias checked his watch and smiled. "I checked with a psychic today. The lucky time is from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. It's the perfect time! Let's sign the agreement now!"
"Wow, Mr. Chambers even checked with a psychic?"
